When, exactly, does a project go off the rails? At what point do slight variations in timing and budgeting snowball into a downward spiral of uncontrollable delays and unforeseen costs? Every project faces different challenges, but the best way to ensure a successful outcome is to establish an airtight project management plan. That's what RationalPlan is here to do for you!
RationalPlan is designed to help both project managers and teams to achieve success in their projects. With RationalPlan, you can create consistent project plans, allocate resources and analyze workload, track work progress, estimate project costs, and manage budgets. The result? Delivery of a final product that's on time and well within budget -- and the everlasting appreciation of your employer!
Here's what RationalPlan gives you: realistic cost estimates, detailed cash flow screening, critical path, and notification of overallocated resources. You can even explore "what if" scenarios, thanks to RationalPlan's multiple level undo/redo! At any given time, use RationalPlan to track your project's evolution based on completion percentage, time, and costs.
If you're in love with Gantt charts, RationalPlan has them! But you might also learn to appreciate the Work Breakdown Structure view, which helps you to focus on breaking down your project to only the most relevant, time-critical aspects!

The product's ability to view and manage multiple projects, its straight forward method of setting up tasks, and the ease-of-use in adjusting and making changes to new or existing projects were just a few of the decision points for me. This is a product that can certainly help your business!”- Michael Hillerbrand, President First Madison LLC

- “We find it to be an excellent product! It has worked reliably and has all the features we need in a project planning tool. RationalPlan has hit that "sweet spot" of having just the right amount of features in a very easy to use GUI. We evaluated several products before discovering RationalPlan - none have worked as well. The cost is very reasonable and the product a very good value.”- Steve Nies, Geenius
- “It's a really good product, great value for money, and the only place (I know of) that you can get multi-project functionality in PC based software which paying a fortune. It is just really solid software that'll do 95% of what you want for 20% of the price.”- Andrew, Australia
