Hi Sergio, thanks for sharing your experience. We're currently working on the performance of the Cloud version of BigGantt. Several team members have been committed to the process, so we hope for the better soon, and in fact, BG Cloud should be healthy already. As for the second part of your review, I can't locate a support ticket with your name in our Jira. We appreciate trial users contacting our support team, and we can resolve most of the issues. Does that make sense to you? Marcin
Hi, Eduardo, thanks for the review. I'm sorry to say BigGantt Cloud experienced a few outages in July; the exact dates can be confirmed at https://status.softwareplant.com/. We immediately noticed the outages and fixed them. I'm attributing your review to those outages as I couldn't find a support ticket with your name in our Service Desk. We are usually able to fix reported issues within 24 hours. We would love to see you re-evaluating BigGantt.
On a related note, we at SoftwarePlant work on Cloud versions internally, so we can detect Cloud-related issues early. The support & development teams get notified on reviews, including yours, so they can react.
We are feeling genuinely sorry about your bad experience and hope for a brighter future. Marcin
Hi, Roger, thanks for the review. I just discussed your case with our support team. Everybody feels sorry about your bad experience, and the issue is on our roadmap. We're going to change how BigGantt behaves when it's 'not sure' which dates to use.
The issue may only arise at those clients, who have tasks both within BigGantt and outside of it, and there has to be a dependency between the two tasks. In such a case, the helpdesk occasionally advices a client to import all tasks into a single BigGantt program, so that all of the tasks are effectively within BigGantt. The helpdesk wrongly assumed that you were aware of how BigGantt acts on dates while importing. More on how it does: https://wiki.softwareplant.com/display/DOCUMENTATION/Quick+start+with+BigPicture
No matter how odd it might sound, we hope you re-evaluate BigGantt in future. Marcin

Hi Felipe, yes BigGantt is a self-contained app, so you don't need BigPicture to use BigGantt. This is a 5 minute tutorial on how to create a new program https://youtu.be/rP52rPKCIAc?t=34 in BigGantt and BigPicture, as the program manager is virtually the same in both. I fully understand you might not be able to create a program for some legit reason, I think the quickest way to solve that would be to e-mail support@softwareplant.com with a screenshot and a short description. Thanks. Marcin
Hi Kyung-Min Jo,
I understand you wish to keep a task visible in the left, work breakdown structure part of the Gantt chart view, and at the same time you are trying to hide the bar representing this task from the right area of the screen, namely from the Gantt chart itself.
I would keep the original, equal start and end dates of the task to keep the bar 'thin', so to speak. I'd change the color of the bar to 'none' and then I would lock the task (three dotes > Task mode > Lock) to prevent other users from accidentally changing its dates. This way you reduce the visibility of the task on the bar chart.
Another thing you can do is creating a sub-task to some other task and then drill-up that level of the hierarchy, effectively hiding the sub-task.
You could also upgrade from BigGantt to BigPicture, with its Scope module, among others, which essentially is a more functional left, work breakdown structure, part of the Gantt chart, with no bar chart itself. BigPicture obviously does have the 'regular' Gantt charts, too.
Thanks, Dan.
Thank you, Walter.
Hi Alfonso,
We very much appreciate your review!

SoftwarePlant

Greetings Dusan,
Thank you for the review. We do realize that some issues with the Cloud version of the plugin might have caused a user to encounter few problems, especially in its first months after the official release. And yes, in some cases a manual troubleshooting was required, though we are trying to implement hot-fixes to all of our plugins as often as possible.
We do not request administrative rights to anyone's e-mail. In most cases we offer a WebEx troubleshooting session with screen sharing, where user reproduces the issue and one or two of SoftwarePlant team members guides them through the plugin set-up in order to resolve that specific issue. In some cases, when the above is not possible, customers offer a creation of a JIRA account with administrative rights to their environment in order to test, reproduce and fix some issues, though this usually takes legal forms like NDA.
Please let us know if the issue you've struggled with still persists or maybe if it was fixed with the later releases of the BigGantt.
Kind Regards,
SoftwarePlant
Hello Richard,
Thank you for the review. We realise that it's been awhile though, due to some mysterious issues with our MarketPlace account, some of our replies were erased.
We realise that the early (beta) versions of our plugin might have not been fully functional, yet a lot has changed ever since. Our app is now much more stable and introduces lots of additional functionalities. If you would like to learn more and give it another go, please contact us via our ServiceDesk. Our Support Team will be more than happy to assist you.
Kind Regards,
SoftwarePlant Team
Hello Jin,
Thank you for your query and for the review. To answer your questions:
1) This can be done indeed through Jira Issue Detail View. Please keep in ming though, this operation is still performed within Jira not in plugin itself. Even if it may seem like it.
2) This issue has been fixed in one of the latest releases and should no longer be a problem.
3) Sadly, the multiple baseline functionality has to be moved to the end of Q4 this year, as there's many other features which became our priority as well as the fact that we are planning to implement multiple baselines with plugin's new look and feel.
Regards,
SoftwarePlant
Thanks Martin!
Elena,
Sorry to hear that you had a bad experience with our plugin. We do test it under challenging conditions (60 000 tasks) but occasionally some circumstances cause major browser issues. Trying to leave feedback couldn't have happened at a worse time as our Service Desk was not working yesterday. Please write us directly at support@softwareplant.com and we'll get it sorted out for you!

Pricing FAQ
- How does cloud app pricing work?
Cloud apps are sold as a monthly or annual subscription. You are eligible for support and automatic version updates as long as your subscription is active.
When your subscription renews each month, you are automatically billed for apps based on the number of users in your instance.
If app pricing changes after your initial purchase, there's a 60-day grandfathering period during which you can renew based on the old pricing.
- How do I determine my cloud pricing?
Apps are billed based on the number of users in your Atlassian product. Jira Cloud apps are priced based on the maximum users of the Jira products on your instance. For example, if you have Jira Software (50 users) and Jira Service Desk (10 agents) on the same instance, you pay the 50-user price for apps.Note: While this app has features specific to Jira Service Desk, the app is technically available across the whole Jira instance. Therefore the above guidelines for licensing across maximum users still apply.
The pricing structure for cloud apps is as follows:
- Monthly subscriptions with up to 10 Atlassian product users are billed at a flat rate price.
- Monthly subscriptions with more than 10 users are billed per user, starting at the first user.
- Monthly subscriptions with more than 100 users are billed per user. The table above provides example pricing at various user levels.
Annual subscriptions may offer a discount depending on the number of users purchased.
- Do you offer academic, community, or open-source licenses for cloud apps?
Academic, community and open source licenses are not available for cloud apps.
- Can I extend my free trial?
For cloud apps, you cannot extend your free evaluation period. All cloud apps are immediately subscribed by a user, and we provide a free evaluation period. This is a minimum of 30 days and ends on the second billing cycle after you first subscribe to the app.
Pricing FAQ
- How does server app pricing work?
Server products and apps are hosted on your servers. This app is sold as a perpetual license, and the purchase price includes 12 months of maintenance (support and version updates).
You can renew maintenance after 12 months at 50% of the current purchase price. You can upgrade the tier of your Atlassian product and app licenses at any time. Upgrade prices are calculated based on Atlassian's formula (view example).
If app pricing changes after your initial purchase, there's a 60-day grandfathering period during which you can renew based on the old pricing.
- How do I determine my server pricing?
Apps are billed based on the number of users in your Atlassian product. For Jira 7.0 or later, the app tier should match the maximum tier of the licensed Jira products on your instance. For example, if you're running Jira Software (500 users) and Jira Service Desk (25 agents) on the same instance, you should purchase the 500-user tier for apps. For versions of Jira prior to 7.0, the app tier should match the licensed user tier for Jira. Even if fewer users want to use the app than your Jira license, the two licenses should match exactly. Note: While this app has features specific to Jira Service Desk, the app is technically available across the whole Jira instance. Therefore the above guidelines for the license tier still apply.
- Can I install this app in a Data Center product?
Yes, this app has a Data Center approved version. If you're using a Data Center product, you should install the Data Center version of the app.
- What type of license do I need if I'm using this app in a Data Center product?
Because this app has a Data Center approved version, you should purchase a Data Center license for the app.
If you already own a server license for this app, you can continue using the server license in your Data Center product for a limited period of time.
- Do you offer academic, community, or open-source licenses for server apps?
For server apps, academic licenses are available at a 50% discount if you have an academic license for your Atlassian product.
Community and open-source licenses are available for server apps. Learn more about community and open source licenses.
- Can I extend my free trial?
For server apps, you can extend your app trial up to 5 times - in other words, for up to six months. Extend your trial by generating a new evaluation license key from Atlassian Marketplace. Click Try it free and you'll be directed to generate a new license. Paste this license key into the app listing in UPM from your Atlassian product, and you're all set.
- How can I buy apps for my legacy Jira Server or Confluence Server license?
If you own a legacy Jira Server Unlimited (100+ users) or Confluence Server Unlimited (2000+ users) license purchased in 2012 or earlier, legacy app pricing is no longer available. You have two options for app purchasing:
- Purchase the app at the non-legacy Unlimited (10000+ users) tier.
- Renew your Jira or Confluence license at a non-legacy tier, then purchase the app at the same tier.
