How to Make a Gantt Chart with Creately

  1. Open a Gantt Chart Template

Launch Creately, open a workspace, and choose a Gantt chart template from the library or start with a blank canvas. Use the Notes Panel or sticky notes to define your project scope, goals, and deliverables so the whole team is aligned.

  1. Add Project Tasks

Break down project objectives into smaller, manageable tasks and add these to the Gantt chart template. You can use brainstorming tools or a work breakdown structure (WBS) within the workspace to organize and prioritize tasks clearly.

  1. Define Dependencies and Timelines

Connect tasks to show dependencies and set realistic durations. Draw the timeline, add milestones, and highlight critical tasks that must be completed before others can begin. This helps identify potential delays early.

  1. Customize and Assign Tasks

Assign tasks to team members, track updates in real time, and use notifications to stay informed of changes. Use color coding for better readability of tasks.

  1. Review, Update & Share

Regularly review progress within the workspace, mark completed tasks, and address delays with in-line comments or team discussions. Share your Gantt chart via secure links, set permissions for editing or viewing, and export it in formats like PNG or PDF for reports or presentations.
