Which one is for you
Pick Bryntum Gantt if
- Fits if you are building software that needs a Gantt chart
- Works for a developer who can start on the free Community edition
Look elsewhere if
- Not for you if you want a ready-made tool: it is a library, so you build the screens
- Pricey if you need baselines, critical paths or MS Project import: Enterprise is $1,100 a developer a year
- Watch out: a SaaS or commercial product that includes it needs an OEM licence quoted by sales
- Tight if you plan several apps or developers: the $699 and $1,100 figures cover one developer and one app
Pick GanttPRO if
- Fits if you plan with dependencies, baselines and a critical path
- Works for teams of 20 or more, who pay $1 to $2 less per user on annual billing
Look elsewhere if
- Not for you if you want to stay free, as there's no free plan once the 14-day trial ends
- Pricey if you need workload, budgets, time tracking, reports, Jira Cloud or the API, which all sit on Business at $19 a user
- Skip it if you work alone and want to pay monthly, since single-user accounts are annual only
- Tight if you need single sign-on or custom roles, as Enterprise needs at least 5 users on an annual plan
- Watch out: storage is 1 GB per user below Enterprise, there's no desktop app, and nothing can be edited offline
How we grade them
| 1.8GPABryntum GanttWeak | 2.2GPAGanttPROFair | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | DBusiness is $699 a developer a year and Enterprise $1,100, far above the $30 a month for the dearest tenth of project tools. It is one app and one developer, with extras on top. | CCore is $8 a user a month billed annually, $9 monthly, which is exactly the middle price in this category, and $7 from 20 users. Ordinary, then. Mind the ladder above it: custom fields need Advanced at $12, and workload, budgets, time tracking and the API need Business at $19. |
| Free plan and trial | BThe Community edition is free under the MIT license, commercial use included, with fewer features. Trial terms aren't stated. | CNo free plan at all. There's a 14-day trial with everything switched on and no card asked for, and then you subscribe. On your own you can only buy it annually. |
| Features | CResource assignments, critical paths, baselines, MS Project import. It does the Gantt job fully, but the job is a component, with no tasks, chat or reporting beyond it. | CThe Gantt side is done fully: dependencies, auto scheduling, critical path, baselines, milestones, plus board, list and dashboard views and export to PDF, PNG, XLSX and XML. But that is the narrower half of running a project, and workload, portfolio, budgets, reports and time logs all need Business. |
| Ease of use | DNo store rating, and you need code and a build to use it. | CNo store rating on record. This is a tool where the work is building the plan itself, task by task, with dependencies to wire up, so there's a learning curve. The AI chart maker on every plan at least gives you a first draft to push around. |
| Platforms and integrations | CRuns in the browser through React, Angular, Vue and TypeScript. No API or integrations list for managers. | BWeb, iPhone and Android, with no desktop app on record. It connects to Teams, Slack, Google Drive, OneDrive, Google Calendar and Outlook Calendar, though Jira Cloud and the API wait for Business. |
| Best for | developers who need a Gantt chart inside their own app | planning projects on a Gantt chart |

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
