GANTTPLAN APS review
A web-based APS for finite-capacity planning across machines, labor, materials, and constraints.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
GANTTPLAN APS is an advanced planning and scheduling system for manufacturing companies that need coordinated production planning around finite capacity. It supports automatic and manual production-order scheduling, machine and work-center assignment, personnel planning with qualifications, material requirements planning, and material-availability checks. The system is aimed at established manufacturers across industries and sizes, including organizations working with SAP environments. It is available as a web application, with cloud and on-premises deployment options.
Its main strength is the breadth of planning controls in one system. GANTTPLAN APS can schedule multiple resources simultaneously, apply material and capacity constraints, and create what-if scenarios for comparing production alternatives. Setup-time and sequence optimization are included, while Gantt-chart production control and reporting provide a graphical view of the schedule. AI features are also part of the product offering. This combination suits teams that need more than a basic order calendar and want to examine the impact of resource, labor, or material changes before adjusting production plans.
Integration is central to the product’s fit. GANTTPLAN APS connects with ERP and MES systems and lists SAP ERP, SAP S/4HANA, REST APIs, OData, and Microsoft Azure among its integration options. That makes it a practical choice for manufacturers building scheduling into an existing operational technology environment. Pricing is handled through contact with sales, and there is no free plan, so it fits organizations evaluating a production-planning system as part of a broader manufacturing software decision. Choose it for multi-factor scheduling, scenario analysis, and ERP/MES alignment; choose an alternative if you need a free or self-serve scheduling tool.
