What is GanttProject?

GanttProject 3.4 is in its sixth beta, filling gaps users have asked about for years.

GanttProject is a Java desktop scheduler with major versions one to three years apart. The 3.4 Beta VI build in September added custom properties in filters and calculated columns, clickable links in the task table, multi-file import and a manual token path for GanttProject Cloud sign-in. A 3.3 release page dated 8 November restates 3.3's highlights (SQL-calculated columns, project-relative week numbers, native Apple Silicon) with an updated bundled Java runtime.

What is Ever Teams?

Ever Teams tags dozens of versions a day; most are fixes and test changes.

Ever Teams tags several releases a day. On 12 November 0.196 added a Jira Cloud integration section, timer notes and a Workspace settings page, and 0.197 added a due-date calendar, drag-to-reschedule and a Table layout for team tasks. The releases tagged around midnight on 13 November are small: a dismissable newsletter card, spelling-list and test fixes, a dependency bump, Docs export fixes, and in 0.199.0 a keyboard shortcut to assign tasks.

GanttProject vs Ever Teams: editorial side-by-side

G2.5

GanttProject 3.4 is in its sixth beta, filling gaps users have asked about for years.

◆ Current state

GanttProject is a Java desktop scheduler with major versions one to three years apart. The 3.4 Beta VI build in September added custom properties in filters and calculated columns, clickable links in the task table, multi-file import and a manual token path for GanttProject Cloud sign-in. A 3.3 release page dated 8 November restates 3.3's highlights (SQL-calculated columns, project-relative week numbers, native Apple Silicon) with an updated bundled Java runtime.

◆ Where it's heading

3.3 introduced SQL-driven calculated columns; 3.4 makes them useful with custom properties and puts more data on the chart itself. Cloud sign-in keeps getting workarounds, so the cloud tie-in from 3.0 is still part of the plan.

◆ Prediction

A 3.4 release after six betas is the obvious next step, but the project's slow cadence makes timing hard to call from the entries.

E5.0

Ever Teams tags dozens of versions a day; most are fixes and test changes.

◆ Current state

Ever Teams tags several releases a day. On 12 November 0.196 added a Jira Cloud integration section, timer notes and a Workspace settings page, and 0.197 added a due-date calendar, drag-to-reschedule and a Table layout for team tasks. The releases tagged around midnight on 13 November are small: a dismissable newsletter card, spelling-list and test fixes, a dependency bump, Docs export fixes, and in 0.199.0 a keyboard shortcut to assign tasks.

◆ Where it's heading

The project ships through an automated release loop that tags every merged change, so version numbers say little about scope. Real features still arrive every day or two, aimed at task views, time tracking and integrations with other project tools.

◆ Prediction

Expect the version count to keep climbing quickly, with the occasional release adding a task view or integration among many fix-only tags.
