PROJECT in a box Planner is a great companion planning tool. It makes it simple to layout, schedule your projects and even resource them. Then share the files with anyone you want. Easy to pick up and use even if you haven’t used a planning tool before. Planner doesn't have the rich functionality of bigger applications, it's unashamedly lightweight.
