Overview

[edit]

X-Pert is geared to producing critical path method and PERT schedules for major, long-term projects (in one case[1] a duration now approaching 40 years).

Developed by users and contributors to the ICL 1900 PERT mainframe package, X-Pert is one of the few packages still fully supporting the activity on arrow project network process.

PERT network chart for a seven-month project with five milestones (10 through 50) and six activities (A through F).

X-Pert supports the full cycle of project management – through multi-level work breakdown structure creation, transition to multiple projects using critical path diagrams and Gantt chart presentation.

X-Pert is available as Software as a Service (SaaS) running in the cloud, for a low monthly subscription

History

[edit]

At its first commercial release in 1980,[2] Micro Planner was the first project management package for a micro computer.

First developed for the Apple II computer in 1979, versions have also existed at various times for the Apple ///, Sirius Systems Technology Victor, Macintosh, Silicon Graphics IRIX platforms, and currently for Microsoft Windows.

With the simultaneous release of Version 6 in 1988, for both Macintosh and Windows; Micro Planner became the first cross-platform project management solution for companies with a mixed hardware environment.

As of 2014 a 32-bit version for Windows and Mac OS X is under advanced development.
