Thank goodness for TreeSheets!

I’ve been grappling with a tough project management problem for weeks now, needing to map multiple dimensions across and side-by-side each other, and I’ve tried a whole series of different software, and nothing worked.

Either the software were too fiddly and slow to work with, or have gone into too much detail, or weren’t able to give me the one-page Gantt-like overview I needed.

In TreeSheets effectively I created a Gantt chart manually, while ordering multiple parallel projects, and allocating time in blocks of weeks. For some reason the whole process worked a lot more smoothly than if I had used a spreadsheet.

Thanks to the great export options, I was able to export the file to CSV > Excel > Google Sheets, so now I can pin the Gantt chart to my browser’s bookmark bar and refer to it daily.

BTW, there seem to be some new versions out there (I have v. Sep 13, 2015) but on GitHub they are even talking about a Jan 23, 2016 release, though I couldn’t find where to download it from. The forum (https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/treesheets) also seems to have regular and recent discussion, so it looks like TreeSheets lives on!
