Abstract

There are numerous methods in managing project activities. Apart from it all, people involved in the project must carefully consider the project’s objectives, timeline, cost, and roles of the participants. The complexity of the project challenges them in estimating, planning, scheduling, budget monitoring, resource management, and documentation. Many use word processors, presentations, or graphic software for some of these activities, but project management and diagramming software are offered now, supporting almost all of these tasks. This chapter aims to make readers aware of the different software that they can use in project management and diagramming. It lists the currently available commercial software, shareware, and freeware; and reviews four project management and two diagramming software.
