Bee Docs’ Timeline does a great job of charting events with specific dates. For example, if you wanted to chart specific due dates for construction permits, or project milestones then Bee Docs Timeline would be great.

However, if you want to chart events based on generic dates (week 1, week 2, …) or want to set up dependancies and critical paths, then you probably need software that is more focussed on project management, such as OmniPlan.

Some of our customers use project management software together with Bee Docs’ Timeline and find them to be very complimentary tools.

In response to Syaman’s question, the biggest group of customers that purchase Bee Docs’ Timeline include students and professors who are creating historical timelines for reports or presentations. Lawyers who use timelines to show the events of their case also represent big group of our customers.

We also have good representation from authors, film makers, and project planners. Basically anyone that is trying to understand or communicate relationships between historical events can benefit from Bee Docs’ Timeline.

As you can see from some of the examples on our website, we are also exploring the area of personal timelines based on “recent history” such as the songs you listen to in iTunes or the photos you take.
