Ganttic vs Left

Ganttic is resource-planning software for coordinating project portfolios and the people, spaces, and equipment assigned to work. Its online Gantt chart gives resource and task views, with drag-and-drop scheduling. Resources can include people, rooms, machinery, vehicles, and equipment. Plans are based on the number of resources, and every plan includes unlimited users. The Free plan is free, billed monthly, for up to 10 resources; it includes unlimited projects, Gantt charts, reports, and Kanban boards. PRO 20 is $25 a month, billed monthly, for up to 20 resources and includes API access. A 14-day trial has all features and unlimited resources and users, with no credit card required. Integrations include Zapier and calendar syncing with Google Calendar and Outlook. Ganttic says its cloud hosting uses AWS servers in Frankfurt, Germany, and is GDPR compliant. It lists customizable Owner, Admin, and User permissions, an account History Log, email support, help materials, and personalized support demos.

Left is an iOS and macOS time-planning app that shows progress through the year, month, week, day, hour, minute, and life. Home Screen, Lock Screen, and StandBy widgets present those views, while Ahead creates countdowns for custom dates, imported calendar dates, and shared dates with friends. Planner combines Apple Reminders, calendar events, habits, streaks, weather, sleep, and workouts in one view. Users can track habits, streaks, and Aim manually or with Apple Health updates. The app includes an Apple Watch companion, a configurable Pomodoro-style focus timer, and fasting tools with reminders, widgets, Live Activities, history, and watch controls. Mood entries use Apple Health’s State of Mind data, and Left says it never uploads Health history. Widgets work offline; on-device data can sync through iCloud, while shared items use a Left account. The Free plan is free. Left Premium is a lifetime purchase with price shown in-app.
