ZilicusPM 3.0
Following are the new features introduced in ZilicusPM version 3.0
1. Interactive Gantt Chart
Interactive Gantt Chart is a lot easier and quicker way to create project schedule
- Now use spreadsheet like entries to add new tasks- use keyboard shortcuts e.g. Tab, Enter to create tasks
- You can use keyboard shortcuts to indent (Ctrl+Left Arrow) and outdent (Ctrl+Right Arrow) tasks levels
- You can drag-n-drop Tasks to move along timeline, , extend duration & add task dependencies using mouse
- Earlier we have been supporting Finish to Start (F2S) type of dependency but in this release new types of dependencies can be created like Start to Start (S2S), Finish to Finish (F2F), Start to Finish (S2F) along with lag time
- Color of the task in Gantt is now based on its priority (viz. High – Red, Medium – Amber, Low – Green, None – Blue); Whenever team member update the task progress, it will automatically get displayed inside the bar (in dark colors)
2. Microsoft Project Integration
- Do you work with Microsoft Project, no worries, now we offer inter-operability with MS Project too
- Now you can import project schedules created using MS Project to ZilicusPM
- You can also export schedule of any project in ZilicusPM to file that can be re-used in MS Project compatible format
3. Project Administration
- Now as a Administrator of ZilicusPM, you can administer projects for your account
- Un-Delete projects (retrieve projects deleted by project managers)
- Change project manager for any given project (reassign project ownership to somebody else)
4. UI Redesign
- We have given a super slick look and feel to ZilicusPM in its version 3.0
- Few changes in usability aspects – e.g. The way you create tasks in ZilicusPM has been improved considerably

Additionally, we have introduced video guide for the application
- In this version users can access context sensitive video help guide
