Start linking to Google Docs or Dropbox

Now that links are clickable in Tom's Planner schedules, the possibilities are endless! Have all the information about your projects in one place by, for example, attaching Google docs files or Dropbox files to the schedules. Be more time efficient by adding reports, documents, ToDo lists, letters or important links to other websites. Create your project plan with Tom's Planner and you'll never have to search for information about the project anymore!

Working on Tom's Planner with a team

Collaborating
Tom's Planner is the ideal starting point for any team that is working on a project together and wants to create and manage a project plan online.


Typically in a project team the project manager has a paid account and to collaborate on someones project you only need a Free Account


So if you received an invitation to collaborate on a schedule, a free account will suffice. If you want to invite others to collaborate on your schedules you will need a paid account, you can then invite team members, clients or other parties and assign read-only and/or edit rights.


Publishing online 
If you want to keep it simple and want others to see the project plan without having to sign up with Tom's Planner, you can choose to publish your project schedules online and others can keep up to date by checking the url. Every time changes are made the published schedule will automatically be updated as well.
