Monthly Gantt Chart Template FAQs

Yes, you can access our Monthly Gantt chart template (which uses AI) upon registering at Visor. You will have a 14-day free trial of Visor’s Team plan, giving you access to all of Visor’s premium features, including our Gantt view.

After this trial ends, your Gantt chart will still be in tact. Additionally, you can continue to use our AI Smart Templates after your trial ends, using the views that are included in our free plan (Table and Board views).

To make edits to it or adjust your Monthly Gantt chart after your trial ends, you can select our Team, Starter, or Business plan. You can also continue using Visor’s Free account, which lets you continue to use our Board view and Table view.

Does Visor’s Monthly Gantt template allow me to adjust my chart so it shows data by other increments of time?

Our AI-powered templates are a jumpstart.

You can always customize your Gantt afterwards, including using our “Zoom” feature which allows you to show how else you’d like your Gantt chart to display work across time. You can choose weeks, sprints, quarters, or even years as other increments of time.

In addition, Visor allows you to make other adjustments to your Monthly Gantt chart, including color-coding your Gantt chart, applying filters, adding Gantt chart milestones, or grouping data with swimlanes.

Visor also gives you a few different “views” so you can play around with different ways to visualize your Monthly Gantt chart while still maintaining other versions of your Gantt.

If I don’t have start and end date fields, can I still use Visor’s Monthly Gantt Chart Template?

You do need start and end date fields to use Visor’s Gantt view.

If you don’t have any date fields that you’re importing from apps like Jira or Asana, you can use Visor’s custom fields to plot your Gantt chart. These custom fields will live only in Visor. Therefore, if you’re importing data from elsewhere, the fields you create in Visor won’t affect data in your other apps.

What data can I import from apps like Asana and Jira when using Visor’s Monthly Gantt chart template?

Visor has two-way integrations with apps like Jira, Salesforce, and Asana. Here is a primer for how we work with this data.

Fields:

Visor allows you to import nearly all fields from project management apps like Jira and Asana. You can bring in dropdown fields, such as assignee or priority. You can also import other fields, such as sprint fields, date fields, and most custom fields.

As noted above, if you are using our Jira Gantt chart or Asana Gantt chart template (or any other Gantt templates we offer), you do need date fields to plot a Gantt chart in Visor.

Data hierarchy:

In addition, you can import any level across your Jira hierarchy (e.g., Initiative, Epic, Task, Bug, Subtask) and then add filters to show the level of granularity that you want in your Gantt chart.

Visor also helps you make Salesforce Gantt charts and Asana Gantt charts that work with the hierarchies you have setup in those apps as well.

Gantt chart milestones:

Gantt chart milestones make your project data clearer for others. Visor offers a milestones feature.

If you are importing data from other places, there are a few things to be aware of. For instance Jira does not offer Milestones. Therefore, you cannot import Jira milestone data into Visor. However, you can add milestones in Visor to enrich your Jira data.

Because Asana does offer milestones, you can import Asana milestones data into Visor.

I’d like to visualize multiple projects in my monthly Gantt chart. Is that possible with this template?

Yes, you can definitely import (or input) multiple projects in your Gantt when using Visor’s monthly Gantt chart template. Here’s how, depending on how you’re getting data into Visor.

Non-Integrated users:

If you aren’t importing data from other places (e.g., Jira and Asana), you can manually input data across different projects right into Visor.

However, if you want to import data into Visor, check out the info below.

For Jira users:

Our JQL importer allows you to import multiple Jira projects. (Check out our JQL cheat sheet to get tips on queries you can run.)

Visor’s JQL importer makes us a cost-effective and easy solution for Jira portfolio management and a wonderful alternative to Jira’s built-in roadmap / Gantt chart options, Timeline and Advanced Roadmaps.

Here’s a review from Jira expert, Alex Ortiz, about how to use Visor for a Jira Gantt chart:

For Asana users:

Visor’s basic Asana importer allows you to choose from multiple Asana projects, making us a wonderful solution for multi-project Gantts and portfolio roadmaps in Asana.

While Asana does offer a portfolio add-on, you do have to upgrade to use it. Therefore, you can use Visor as a cost effective hack for your Asana project portfolio management. Check out how in this tutorial below:

Can I also set up my Gantt chart manually or do I have to use a Gantt Chart template?

Our AI Smart Templates are easy to use, making Visor one of the most intuitive AI project management tools on the market). And if you want more info about the type of data we use in our AI Smart Templates, check out our Knowledge Base.)

However, we understand that not everyone wants to use AI. Therefore, you can also manually create a monthly Gantt chart in Visor — even without a template! Visor is a popular Gantt chart software for good reason (even before we had AI features). Discover why by getting started today.
