Ingantt is a browser-based Microsoft Project viewer and planning app that opens and edits MPP files. It suits teams that need to review or update project schedules without installing desktop software; compared with Microsoft Project, Ingantt is a better fit when you want browser access and native Google Drive saving and sharing.

Why Trust Our Software Recommendations
Our team has been testing and reviewing software since 2012. As project managers ourselves, we know how difficult—and important—it is to choose the right software.
For this guide, we evaluated tools using hands-on testing and independent research, scoring tools using our selection criteria. We also draw on insights from industry thought leaders and practicing project management experts.
Our reviews reflect our human editorial judgment, not a sales pitch.
Expert reviewers:
Ingantt Overview
I’d choose Ingantt when your team needs to open and edit MPP schedules in a browser without installing desktop software. Its Gantt, resource, cost, and earned value views offer more planning depth than a basic viewer, while Google Drive saving and sharing suit teams already working there. Compared with desktop-first tools, Ingantt is easier to access but offers a narrower integration ecosystem. Its detailed scheduling options can also feel dense at first, though the seven-day trial makes evaluation easy. I’d select it for distributed teams reviewing dependencies, resource assignments, or project costs across devices.
pros
-
Opens MPP files in-browser and presents ten synchronized project views.
-
Reviewers praise its MS Project-like scheduling and phone-based plan sharing.
-
Resource leveling, baselines, and earned value support deeper schedule reviews.
cons
-
One iOS reviewer reports slow performance and a confusing layout.
-

Our Review Methodology
How We Test & Score Tools
We’ve spent years building, refining, and improving our software testing and scoring system. The rubric is designed to capture the nuances of software selection and what makes a tool effective, focusing on critical aspects of the decision-making process.
Below, you can see exactly how our testing and scoring works across seven criteria. It allows us to provide an unbiased evaluation of the software based on core functionality, standout features, ease of use, onboarding, customer support, integrations, customer reviews, and value for money.
Core Functionality (25% of final scoring)
The starting point of our evaluation is always the core functionality of the tool. Does it have the basic features and functions that a user would expect to see? Are any of those core features locked to higher-tiered pricing plans? At its core, we expect a tool to stand up against the baseline capabilities of its competitors.
Standout Features (25% of final scoring)
Next, we evaluate uncommon standout features that go above and beyond the core functionality typically found in tools of its kind. A high score reflects specialized or unique features that make the product faster, more efficient, or offer additional value to the user.
We also evaluate how easy it is to integrate with other tools typically found in the tech stack to expand the functionality and utility of the software. Tools offering plentiful native integrations, 3rd party connections, and API access to build custom integrations score best.
Ease of Use (10% of final scoring)
We consider how quick and easy it is to execute the tasks defined in the core functionality using the tool. High scoring software is well designed, intuitive to use, offers mobile apps, provides templates, and makes relatively complex tasks seem simple.
Onboarding (10% of final scoring)
We know how important rapid team adoption is for a new platform, so we evaluate how easy it is to learn and use a tool with minimal training. We evaluate how quickly a team member can get set up and start using the tool with no experience. High scoring solutions indicate little or no support is required.
Customer Support (10% of final scoring)
We review how quick and easy it is to get unstuck and find help by phone, live chat, or knowledge base. Tools and companies that provide real-time support score best, while chatbots score worst.
Customer Reviews (10% of final scoring)
Beyond our own testing and evaluation, we consider the net promoter score from current and past customers. We review their likelihood, given the option, to choose the tool again for the core functionality. A high scoring software reflects a high net promoter score from current or past customers.
Value for Money (10% of final scoring)
Lastly, in consideration of all the other criteria, we review the average price of entry level plans against the core features and consider the value of the other evaluation criteria. Software that delivers more, for less, will score higher.
Core Features
MPP File Import And Editing
Ingantt opens MPP files in the browser so you can review and update an existing Microsoft Project schedule without desktop software. It exports MS Project-compatible XML rather than native MPP files, so plan for that format difference when sharing edited schedules.
Gantt And Synchronized Views
Ten synchronized views include Gantt, Tracking Gantt, Calendar, Network Diagram, and Resource Usage. Switch views to inspect the same plan from different angles, such as task timing, dependencies, or workload.
Dependency-Based CPM Scheduling
Ingantt uses the Critical Path Method and supports four dependency types, including finish-to-start and start-to-start. This helps you trace how a date change affects linked tasks and identify multiple critical paths.
Resource Assignments And Leveling
Assign work, material, cost, or generic resources to tasks, then level overallocations by priority, slack, or ID. You can review resource usage and adjust assignments when competing work threatens the schedule.
Baselines And Variance Tracking
Save up to 11 baselines and compare them with the current plan using variance columns and baseline bars. This shows where dates or progress have shifted from the approved schedule.
Costs And Earned Value Analysis
Ingantt rolls up costs from resource rates, fixed costs, and material use, and provides 13 earned value columns. Metrics such as CPI, SPI, and EAC help you compare planned and actual performance when reviewing budget status.
Ease of Use
Ingantt is more capable than a basic Microsoft Project viewer, but it’s less immediately simple: browser access and ten synchronized views make schedules easy to inspect without installing desktop software, while resource leveling, baselines, and earned value add a learning curve. One iOS reviewer reported slow performance, a confusing layout, and difficult-to-use features, so I wouldn’t assume it feels effortless on every device. I’d use the seven-day trial to check whether its deeper planning tools suit your workflow.
Integrations
Ingantt integrates with Google Drive, Claude Code, and Codex. It does not advertise a public API or prebuilt integrations with third-party automation platforms, though Enterprise plans support custom integrations.
