TechExcel on Wednesday is announcing availability of DevPlan, a project planning tool to manage application development.
DevPlan features a Gantt chart view, resource management, baseline comparisons and integrated knowledge management. Team-based planning and calendaring also are included. The product works in conjunction with the company's DevTrack tool for issue-tracking and defect management.
All work done in DevTrack is done within the context of DevPlan's project breakdown structure.
TechExcel's DevPlan offering is similar to what Rational is providing in the application lifecycle management space but Rational does not provide a way to track a project plan, according to a TechExcel representative.
DevPlan costs about $1,500 per user while DevTrack is approximately $700 per user.
