Create High-Level Timelines to Keep Your Projects on Track

Preceden lets us see an overview of what’s happening in sales, marketing, production, and R&D. By visualizing all of the moving parts, Preceden helps us identify any gaps and plan accordingly.

One of the greatest benefits of Preceden's timeline maker software is when I use a timeline in a contract for a new client. By including a timeline that shows a detailed scope of work in the contract, I set the exact expectations that I’m going to fulfill, increasing client satisfaction with my consulting services. The timeline creator and timeline templates are very intuitive and quick, so it contributes to a more efficient use of my time. Read More

Unless you're a Certified Associate in Project Management, using project management software like Microsoft Project or Merlin Project is complicated at best. If you want to get similar results with software you can start using with virtually no learning curve, this is it. I bought Preceden today and quickly produced an impressive, very detailed marketing action plan for a client that even included our logo. The Gantt charts it produces on the fly look not only professional (even beautiful?) but they are also functional with the ability to create dependencies as well as incorporate detailed notes that show up on hover as well as being listed below the chart. But the clincher for me is that Preceden not only lets me send a link to the timeline, it also lets me download it as a PDF that I can share with my clients.

No other timeline maker out there has been as easy to use to structure the schedules for our teams and paint a clear picture for executives. Preceden saves me time and helps improve communication across the board. I've been waiting for a tool like this for years!

In my role as a strategic communications coordinator at a large organization, Preceden allows me to clearly and beautifully communicate a campaign plan by highlighting key dates, milestones, themes, as well as other events to keep in mind (in a separate layer). I usually have to take a moment to respond to people's questions about how I made the timeline before getting to the campaign itself. It's really that striking. Preceden is gold and here's the best part about it: it's super easy to use.

Preceden is exactly what I have been looking for to create beautiful and informative timelines for my projects and business. It's a much more user-friendly version of Gantt charts without having to use more advanced project management tools to quickly create and share timelines.

I tried several other timeline makers and they were all very complicated. Preceden is extremely intuitive. There are a lot of project management tools out there but I didn’t need such a heavy solution for presenting our roadmap to the team. Read More

Preceden's timeline creator makes it incredibly easy for a project lead to post an integrated timeline to the team. I highly recommend Preceden as a project management tool for anyone who values clear communications as a key ingredient to success.

As a construction marketing professional, Preceden is a great tool that allows me to easily manage and track various activities including events and conferences, community involvement, public relations, advertisements, promotional campaigns, and project milestones. It allows me to effectively communicate upcoming tasks and workload to my team in a visual format, so we can execute our marketing strategy and achieve results.

Our agency was in need of a simple way to create and show clients a marketing timeline for our proposed services. Our intern came across Preceden and we haven't looked back. We use the timeline to give clients a high level overview of our marketing plan for their business. They love being able to easily visualize what otherwise would look like a very complex plan in a written proposal.

The timelines that Preceden helps me create are perfect for my managers and executives who only need to see a high level overview of tasks and milestones. Simple and intuitive, I love using this tool!

As a Release Manager, I use Preceden to plan our high level release schedule as well as the detailed level release hardening activities. Preceden gives me a great overview of what is happening when and the simple user interface makes the job of setting it up simple and intuitive. My team of 100+ software developers can easily visualize where we are by finding the relevant timelines embedded in our internal knowledge-base.

Preceden helps us better serve our clients. It is well thought through and the perfect balance of simple with solid functionality. It's just super smart.

We have been looking for a while to have an easy way to create timeline overviews that are also easy to maintain while projects are progressing. An easy way to export the timelines to PowerPoint helps a lot in keeping the project owners informed how the progress of the tasks and overall project. Preceden will be of great benefit for us as we expand our business into other countries.

I created my first timeline in no time with dependency logic, layers, and relationships. It looks fantastic. There are several export options including CSV and presentation mode. It's really a great product and it provides the great visual solution. If you have to make such timelines for project planning and progress, this is a fantastic product and worthy of your consideration!

Preceden has all the features I was expecting in an online timeline maker and more. For example, I wasn't expecting to be able to allocate percent complete, although I'm glad that is an option as it helps with sharing status. You can also add project dependencies, which is a nice touch, as some roadmap tools just create the bars without allowing you to link between them. It also has plenty of personalization options that make it well suited for project management and teams looking to create visual roadmaps.

Let me save you a ton of time! I was doing a volunteer project back in January of this this year and spend literally the better part of an entire week looking for a good timeline solutions (free ones, paid ones, and crazy attempts with PowerPoint, Google Slides, and spreadsheets). The Preceden team has created the best timeline software out there. Full stop. It is nice to look at, flexible, and they are continually making it even better. If you need to create a timeline, you're going to love Preceden.
