Asta Integrations
Questions? We have answers.
Who is Easyplan for?
Easyplan is designed for planners, project managers and site teams who need clear, practical programmes without the complexity of enterprise scheduling tools.
It suitable for simple projects or to breakdown work packages, where fast, reliable project plans that are easy to update and share are required.
Can it be used on a MacBook?
Yes, Easyplan can be used on a MacBook by running Windows through a compatible virtualisation or remote desktop solution. This allows Mac users to access the full Easyplan feature set in a similar way to other Windows-only project planning tools.
How does Easyplan work with Asta Powerproject?
Easyplan is often used as a complementary tool to Asta Powerproject, giving site and package teams a simpler environment while maintaining alignment with the main programme. Schedules can be structured to mirror key milestones and logic in Asta Powerproject so that reporting and governance remain consistent.
Why choose Easyplan over other simple scheduling tools?
Easyplan combines the clarity and speed of “lightweight” planning tools with more robust logic and reporting than spreadsheets or basic Gantt apps. It helps users build realistic programmes quickly, replan as conditions change, and clearly demonstrate the impact of delays or scope changes.
Is Easyplan suitable for smaller contractors and subcontractors?
Yes, Easyplan is well suited to smaller organisations that need professional-grade programmes without the overhead of complex enterprise systems. It supports trade-level planning, short-term lookaheads, and simple capture of progress to support applications, valuations, and client updates.
Can stakeholders view my Easyplan schedules without a full licence?
Stakeholders can typically receive schedules as exported files, PDFs, or reports that can be opened without a full planning licence. This makes it easier to share programme information with clients, partners, and internal teams who only need to view, not edit, the schedule.
Can a licence be transferred to another colleague or device?
Yes, licences can usually be reallocated if team members change or devices are upgraded, following your organisation’s licence management process. Your account or support team can advise on how best to move licences between users or machines; contact us at support@elecosoft.com.
What support and training are available?
Easyplan is typically supported with onboarding assistance, documentation, and optional training to help teams get value quickly. Training can cover core scheduling skills, best practice workflows, and how to align Easyplan with other tools used in your business.
