Task Relationships
 
I find it essential that tasks can be related to each other, at least in a 1:1 basis, ideally in an N:M relationship.
Tasks depend on each other, one task might gate another, two tasks together might gate a third, etc.

This is an important reflection of what real-life tasks really are. I am surprised to find the tool doesn't support this, and can only hope that a future version might.

I guess each task could have two lists, both empty or containing any number of other tasks. One list shows those other tasks that depend on the current one, the other list shows those tasks that gate this one. These lists would be such that a (double-?) click on a task reference in that list would open the referred task, etc.

Ideally, there was also a view that showed tasks along a timeline (due date & estimate time & actual time taken), and shows those dependencies. Pretty much like MsProject, but I am sure with a bit of thought an even better visualization may be found.
 
Ha - interesting. Just downloaded the trial version, didn't see the feature described above so came to this board to see if I was just missing something.

Yes, this product is basically unusable for me unless tasks are given the ability to nest and branch. There is at least one other product that I tried that allows for this (don't have the name - I installed it at home).

Anyone know of any others?

I'd buy this product in a flash if this feature was enabled.

Cheers,

Raj
 
I, too, agree. The ability to nest and link tasks would be a very welcome addition.
 
Same here - the only thing holding us back from a purchase today is the lack of relationships between tasks.
 
I agree.

This is an option that this software need to have.
