Critical chain method
Good morning,
Currently Smartsheet only uses the critical path method, are there any plans to include the option to use critical chain method as well? and to include the fever chart as part of the graphics?
These are two ways of managing projects, and adding the critical chain will allow a project manager to choose what works best for that.
There is a very nice article in your site (All About the Critical Chain Method | Smartsheet) that talks about the pros and cons of each approach, so I think it would add more value to Smartsheet if you have this capability.
Thoughts?
Thanks,
