Get 360° visibility with Wrike Gantt сharts
Use Wrike’s online Gantt chart tool to build dependency-based schedules, monitor key milestones, and tweak timelines with a simple drag and drop.
DEPENDENCIES AND MILESTONES
Create task dependencies and milestones
Link tasks with all four dependency types — finish-to-start, start-to-start, finish-to-finish, and start-to-finish — so dependent tasks reschedule automatically when dates change and your plan stays accurate.
Mark milestones for key events like phase completions or decisions, and the conflict monitor flags any dependency chain that clashes with a fixed milestone.
DRAG AND DROP
Reschedule tasks in bulk
Need to adjust your Gantt chart? Simply drag and drop tasks to change dates and deadlines, or reschedule in bulk in a few clicks.
When you move a task with dependencies, every dependent active task shifts with it automatically, so the timeline stays accurate. Updated dates are reflected for your team in real time.
ENHANCED CRITICAL PATH
Critical path tracking and milestones
Wrike’s critical path tool highlights the sequence of dependent tasks that determine your project’s finish date. Milestones are fully supported across your schedule.
Filter your project schedule to show only critical tasks, so project managers can instantly spot what’s driving the deadline — no spreadsheet export required.
FLOAT VISIBILITY
Task scheduling and float
Total float and free float are visible in the Gantt chart and as columns in your project schedule. Negative float flags tasks already behind schedule.
See exactly how many days a task can slip before it delays your project — or the task that follows it.
BASELINE TRACKING
Project baseline tracking
Baseline tracking records your original project plan into reportable fields, not just a visual snapshot.
Capture your baseline at project kickoff, then track schedule variance in dashboards and custom formulas to calculate planned vs. actual delivery dates across projects.
COLLABORATION
Share and communicate easily
Share your online Gantt chart with anyone inside or outside your organization. A public link shows your current view with filters so viewers see live updates without being able to edit or open items, and you can set an expiry date or password for control.
Prefer a fixed record? Share a static snapshot that captures the timeline, tasks, dates, and dependencies at a point in time.
IMPORT FILES
Import all your data
With Wrike’s Gantt charts, there’s no need to manually copy information from spreadsheets and other project management applications. Import files and all your durations, dependencies, and responsible parties will automatically be carried over to our Gantt chart software.
Work flows easily with Wrike’s trusted Gantt chart tool
Use Wrike’s Gantt chart maker to plan work across a single project or your whole portfolio. Bring your Gantt chart online and every task, owner, and deadline stays in one place — easy to plan, adjust, and share.
Visualize plans with timelines
See progress, dependencies, and critical path on one drag-and-drop timeline, so you can spot bottlenecks before they slow delivery.
Manage multiple projects
Wrike’s Gantt chart software lets you apply a Gantt view to any folder, project, or space. Track owners, statuses, dates, dependencies, and milestones from one place.
Use Gantt view with filters
Filter your Gantt chart tool by assignee, status, dates, or custom fields, and combine conditions with “and/or” logic. Save presets to reuse across projects, and the chart updates in real time.
GOVERNED AI FOR PROJECT DELIVERY
Put AI to work in your Gantt chart tool
Wrike Copilot answers plain-language questions and surfaces project risks, while AI agents handle regular updates and routing — all on the project data behind your Gantt chart software, under the same roles and permissions as your team.

“With Wrike’s timeline view [Gantt chart], the entire planning process can be visualized and adjusted. It’s easy to see how tasks are related to one another. TeamViewer’s marketing squad finds this incredibly useful: depicting the dependencies and status gives you a good overview of what needs to be done and what’s going to happen.”
Fabian Schenk, Teamviewer’s Marketing Project Manager
“The timeline view in Wrike was always really great because you could visualize it, you could simply drag and drop, you could slide the dates over, and you could create dependencies in a graphical way, as opposed to having to go through a bunch of UI. Just being able to literally grab the arrow and drag it was always really helpful.”
Phillip Hoffman, Senior Program Manager
“We work faster, update key dates for deliverables much more quickly, and eliminate human error. We’ve likely saved around 200 or more hours per year in our launch prep.”
Brynne Roberts, Director of Creative Operations

FAQ
A Gantt chart shows activities, tasks, or events displayed against time. Gantt charts allow you to see what activities are involved in your project, when they begin and end, how long they’re scheduled to last, and where they overlap with each other, as well as the project start and end dates.
Open any folder, project, or space, select + Add view, and choose Gantt Chart. Your scheduled tasks appear as bars on the timeline, while the table also shows unscheduled tasks. You’re adding a Gantt view to existing work — the project itself doesn’t change.
Wrike supports all four dependency types: finish-to-start, start-to-start, finish-to-finish, and start-to-finish. You can also set lead and lag time to overlap or space out linked tasks, and date constraints to control when a dependent task can start.
Once tasks are linked, the dependent task reschedules automatically when dates change, so your timeline stays accurate — though completed or canceled tasks in a chain aren’t moved.
Yes. Drag and drop tasks to change dates and deadlines, or reschedule in bulk. When you move a task with dependencies, every dependent active task shifts with it, and the timeline instantly updates for your team.
Yes. Share a public link that shows your current Gantt view and updates live as your plan changes, with optional password and expiry controls. Viewers can see the chart but can’t edit it. For a fixed record, share a static snapshot that captures the timeline at a point in time.
Yes. Wrike Copilot answers plain-language questions and surfaces risks across your project data, and AI agents can monitor projects and handle routine updates like status changes. They work on the project data behind your Gantt chart, and dependencies stay yours to set.
