Yes, I’ve used Aeon for precisely this (for fiction-writing). Previously I experimented with one or two other timeline applications, and in my view Aeon is the best for this sort of purpose. This may be because to date, as far as I know, Aeon is the only timeline software to have been developed first for use with fictional projects, and only later for real-world use, rather than the other way about.

For real-world use, Aeon’s flexibility should be helpful. It has some templates for this purpose, for example project management, that may be useful for you, though I suspect that they are pretty generic. As I recall, it has a 20-day free-trial period.
