Recommendations wanted: project timeline tracking

[rivan]

I'm doing some investigation on a project tracking software that can explicitly track multiple projects, each with multiple parts and discrete timeline divisions. Ideally, it would be web-based, as the projects span offices/cities, and have users on both mac and windows platforms. Templates for project creation would be very nice, as well as email-notification triggers at specific timeline dates.

Above all, a solid, easy-to-use interface is a must; the people managing the timelines will be non-technical people.

So - any ideas?

Celoxis is another, although it isn't free. I'm still searching for the perfect tool myself ( integrated defect/issue tracking would be nice ).

Have you had problems using Basecamp?
I'm poised to get involved with it, and would like to know if that would be a decision I'll regret.

never had any problems with it, seemed like a great application

we used it for about 6 months, then we just kinda stopped

my issue is with the creators

Install it on a Windows box + XAMPP.

If it is for enterprise, Clarity is pretty nice once you get it configured. Not free by any stretch of the imagination, though.
