LiquidPlanner: Project Management That Deals With Uncertainty

6/10/08 by Erick Schonfeld

"With most project management software, everybody on the team gives an estimate of when they will be done with their part of the project. As people start to miss those deadlines, the whole project gets delayed because someone is always waiting for that unfinished piece of work before they can start their part. Instead of asking project members for single-point estimates, LiquidPlanner asks for estimates in the form of a time range."

Keeping Track of Business

6/9/08 by Christopher Lawton

"This system -- as opposed to establishing single, inflexible target dates for the completion of a project's phases -- is designed to provide a more realistic and fluid picture of a project's development, allowing businesses to better manage unexpected occurrences or delays."

LiquidPlanner Manages the Unknown: Official Release

6/11/08 by Kristen Nicole

"LiquidPlanner [combines] ranged estimates with its probabilistic scheduling engine so that teams and management have a more realistic view of how a project will play out...This estimating project management tool comes in handy when you can see the monetary effects that scheduling delays have on an actual project."

Collaboration: the future of intelligent business

11/16/09 by Ted Cuzzillo

Take, for example, Liquid Planner, the hosted project manager. Unlike conventional planners, it makes no demand for the single completion date, laughable in practice. This planner avoids roulette thinking by asking instead for a range of dates - so much easier to believe in.

Can't We All Just Get Along and Collaborate?

Once the brainstorming stops, however, someone must translate ideas into reality. LiquidPlanner, the only project management tool that makes allowances for sliding estimates with inexact completion dates for tasks, handles this part easily.

A Tale of Two....Web Based Project Management Tools

5/19/09 by Dina Garfinkel

If you had a chance to read my previous post about why I fell in love with LiquidPlanner in the first place, you'll understand why I feel so strongly about making task estimates in ranges. I wasted hours with MS project trying to find a way to do this, with no luck. And of course Basecamp doesn't have this feature. So far I have not found any other project management tool with this important feature, except for LiquidPlanner.

Next Generation Project Planning Tool: LiquidPlanner 2.0

3/2/09 by Steve McConnell

I think this release achieves the elusive goal of synergy--where the interactions between the different parts add capability that goes well beyond each part considered individually... In essence [LiquidPlanner] simultaneously democratizes the project management task by facilitating greater contributions from all team members while empowering project managers with richer, more detailed, and more current project information.

LiquidPlanner helps you manage projects when things go wrong

6/11/08 by Anthony Ha

"The company’s key innovation is obvious but powerful — deadlines are usually inexact and need to be changed as, inevitably, things don’t go according to plan, so LiquidPlanner doesn’t take a larger project and give each task a specific deadline. Instead, team members list a range of likely completion dates."

LiquidPlanner: Hail to the Uncertainty Based Multi Range Task Chart

2/6/08 by Bas de Baar

"Instead of stating that something is finished on date A, you provide a range, between date A and B. The wider the range, the higher the uncertainty of that particular task. For a PM it is a gift from heaven. You can communicate your uncertainty. Death to the one dimensional Gantt chart. Hail to the multi-dimensional Uncertainty Based Multi Range Task Chart!"

Manage Projects Online with LiquidPlanner

1/30/08 by Kevin Purdy

LiquidPlanner is, at a glance, yet another competitor for Microsoft Project, but the time- and task-tracking tool takes a slightly different approach to goals and deadlines. Using what its creators dub "probabilistic" scheduling, LiquidPlanner asks its users to enter a range of dates for task completion, based on best-case and worst-case situations, and it then judges the likelihood of that and other tasks being completed by a given date.
