Which one is for you
Pick Gantter if
- Fits if your team lives in Google Workspace and wants Gantt charts
- Works for people who open Microsoft Project or Primavera files
Look elsewhere if
- Not for you if you want a free plan: only a 7-day trial is on the page
- Tight if some users are light: each needs a paid seat and there is no cheaper tier
- Too light for work beyond scheduling, as it covers Gantt planning, not tasks and chat
- Watch out: it runs in a browser only, started from a Google or other account
Pick Instagantt if
- Fits if you use Asana and want Gantt charts with two-way sync
- Works for solo project managers who need dependencies, baselines and a critical path at $10 a month
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you want a free plan without Asana, as the standalone version only has a 7-day trial
- Tight if you're on the free Asana version, which is 1 user and 3 projects
- Not for you if you might stop paying, because access to your projects is paused until you upgrade again
- Too light for schedules that need more than finish-to-start and start-to-start dependencies
- Watch out: it's web only, and the AI Assistant and time off aren't in the Asana-connected version

No free plan. | CThe free plan only exists in the Instagantt for Asana version, and it's 1 user and 3 Asana projects, which a working week will fill. The standalone version gives you 7 days of everything instead, with no card asked for. |
| Features | CGantt scheduling, Plan Boards, resource levelling, costs, baselines and dashboards. It does scheduling fully, but is narrower than a full project tool. | CThe chart covers drag-and-drop scheduling, milestones, baselines and a highlighted critical path, plus table, Kanban and workload views and public snapshot links. But that's one slice of running a project, and the plan comparison lists only two dependency types, finish-to-start and start-to-start. |
| Ease of use | CNo store rating on record, and plans need building from scratch. | CNo store rating on record. Dragging bars along a timeline is easy enough to grasp, but you're still building the schedule task by task, and the AI Assistant that drafts one for you is standalone and paid-only. |

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.
