TaskJuggler
TaskJuggler
is a modern and powerful Open Source project management tool. Using
Taskjuggler's powerful filtering and reporting algorithms you can
create task lists, resource usage tables, status reports, project
calendars and project accounting statements.
Instead of clicking through hundreds of dialog boxes, a
Taskjuggler
project is specified in a simple text format. Simply list all your
tasks and their dependencies. The resulting schedule is then presented
as a GANTT chart, Table, HTML, XML or CSV report, so that the user can
visualize their entries. The software also produces Pert
charts.
Its approach to project planning and tracking is more flexible
and superior to the commonly used Gantt chart editing tools. It has
already been successfully used in many projects and scales easily to
projects with hundreds of resources and thousands of tasks.

- Manages tasks, resources and costs in one package

and task filtering
