What is Fibery?

Fibery puts MCP setup in one settings page and speeds up entity views and formulas.

Fibery's November 5 release is quality-of-life: keyboard filters in search, more actions on whiteboard entity cards, faster entity pages and batched formula updates. Fibery MCP now has its own settings page with one-click Claude and ChatGPT connections and ready commands for Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and OpenCode. AI Connectors reached free beta on October 29.

What is GanttProject?

GanttProject 3.4 is in its sixth beta, filling gaps users have asked about for years.

GanttProject is a Java desktop scheduler with major versions one to three years apart. The 3.4 Beta VI build in September added custom properties in filters and calculated columns, clickable links in the task table, multi-file import and a manual token path for GanttProject Cloud sign-in. A 3.3 release page dated 8 November restates 3.3's highlights (SQL-calculated columns, project-relative week numbers, native Apple Silicon) with an updated bundled Java runtime.

Fibery vs GanttProject: editorial side-by-side

F6.3

Fibery puts MCP setup in one settings page and speeds up entity views and formulas.

◆ Current state

Fibery's November 5 release is quality-of-life: keyboard filters in search, more actions on whiteboard entity cards, faster entity pages and batched formula updates. Fibery MCP now has its own settings page with one-click Claude and ChatGPT connections and ready commands for Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and OpenCode. AI Connectors reached free beta on October 29.

◆ Where it's heading

Fibery alternates big AI releases (AI agent, Custom Apps, AI-built integrations) with polish weeks. Making MCP setup a first-class setting shows it expects outside agents to work in Fibery as much as its own.

◆ Prediction

The pricing decision on AI Connectors is due by year end; MCP-based connector creation is still the open item from October.

G2.5

GanttProject 3.4 is in its sixth beta, filling gaps users have asked about for years.

◆ Current state

GanttProject is a Java desktop scheduler with major versions one to three years apart. The 3.4 Beta VI build in September added custom properties in filters and calculated columns, clickable links in the task table, multi-file import and a manual token path for GanttProject Cloud sign-in. A 3.3 release page dated 8 November restates 3.3's highlights (SQL-calculated columns, project-relative week numbers, native Apple Silicon) with an updated bundled Java runtime.

◆ Where it's heading

3.3 introduced SQL-driven calculated columns; 3.4 makes them useful with custom properties and puts more data on the chart itself. Cloud sign-in keeps getting workarounds, so the cloud tie-in from 3.0 is still part of the plan.

◆ Prediction

A 3.4 release after six betas is the obvious next step, but the project's slow cadence makes timing hard to call from the entries.
