January Monthly Feature Highlights

Planera monthly feature highlights banner

We kicked off the year with updates to make scheduling in Planera even more intuitive and powerful. Whether you're creating new schedules or coordinating across teams, these enhancements help you move faster and with more confidence.

‍

Here's what we updated last month:

‍

Personal Workspace and Drafts: The Personal Workspace is a dedicated area in which users can build private projects only accessible to the creator. These projects can be moved to the Shared Workspace and shared with teammates as needed.

Personal Workspace & Drafts

‍

‍Total Labor and Equipment Hours Per Activity: This feature provides our users with an at-a-glance insight in to the total number of labor hours & equipment hours are being allocated per activity.

Total Labor Hours

‍

Change Log Updates: Planera’s Change Log will now include the before & after values of each change's entity.

‍

New Color Options: We now offer 10 different color options for your groups to help you organize your projects across the Canvas, Table, and Gantt pages. Learn more about groups.
