Turn your Excel task list into a professional Gantt chart

Your plan already exists: it is the task list sitting in Excel. What you do not have is a way to show it to anybody. SimpleGantt turns that same table into an interactive Gantt chart in one click.

From task list to Gantt chart in one click

See it in action

From a task list to a finished, interactive Gantt chart.

Why people use it

Hours of formatting, gone

Select your table, press one button, done. No colouring cells by hand, no formulas that break when you add a task.

A chart your team can actually use

You get one HTML file. Open it in any browser, zoom in, scroll, hover over a task to see its details. No software needed on their side.

Your plan stays on your PC

SimpleGantt runs inside Excel. Nothing is uploaded anywhere. Your project data never leaves your machine.

Project managers

From Excel to Gantt in one click

Select your table and click export. That is the whole job. The chart looks professional without you touching a single format setting.

Send it to anyone

The chart is one HTML file. Email it, put it on your intranet, or embed it on a page. Your team opens it in a browser and can zoom, scroll and hover.

SimpleGantt dependencies: connecting lines between linked tasks

See what depends on what

Link tasks together and the chart draws the connecting lines. Hover over any task to see its dates, progress and notes.

SimpleGantt milestones marked on the timeline

Key dates stand out

Mark a task as a milestone and it shows as a clear marker on the timeline. Kickoffs, deliveries and approvals are easy to spot.

Plan by the hour when you need to

A workshop, a conference day, a meeting agenda: switch the timescale to hours and plan a single day in detail.

Your logo, your colours

Add your company colours, logo and title. Every chart you export looks like it came from you, which matters in client work.

Frequently asked questions

Excel 2010 and later, including Microsoft 365, on Windows and Mac. It needs the desktop Excel. Excel in the browser does not run add-ins.

Free makes charts with up to 10 tasks, dependencies and milestones included. Pro has no task limit, lets you add your logo and colours, and removes the SimpleGantt branding from the chart. See the two plans above.

Yes. Pay once, use it forever. Every future update is included.

Yes. The timescale goes from years down to hours, so a workshop or a conference day works just as well as a six-month project.

The export is one HTML file. Send it by email, put it on your intranet, or embed it on a website. Your team opens it in any browser. They do not need Excel or SimpleGantt.

No. Everything runs inside Excel on your computer. Nothing is uploaded.

Three of your own computers, for example your desktop, laptop and a second machine. You manage them in the built-in Device Manager. Need more? Email me for team pricing.

Templates need conditional formatting, formulas and hand-drawn arrows, and they break when you add or remove a task. SimpleGantt does all of that for you and gives you an interactive file instead of a static sheet.

They can make a bar chart that looks a bit like one. They do not link tasks, mark milestones, or make it interactive, and you start over every time your data changes. SimpleGantt gives you the same result every time, in one click.
