Project Management Tools
Project Management :
This is managing the resources needed to ensure that a project is finished on time and within budget and to the satisfaction of the end user. Project managers use tools such as PERT and Gantt charts for scheduling all the tasks that need to be completed. They are conscious of managing time, scope and resources for a project.

Project management is concerned with the overall planning and co-ordination of a project from inception to completion aimed at meeting the client's requirements and ensuring completion on time, within cost and to required quality standards. Project management is typically carried out either by a private consultant or an employee of the project client.

TrackIt
TrackIt is the first open source, web based project tracking tool designed from the ground up to provide maximum flexibility, customization, and most importantly, usefulness to the developer.
Flexibility: Use TrackIt To Meet Your Needs
Aside from the simple definition of a Project and Users, every feature in TrackIt is optional. Furthermore, TrackIt's dynamic linking system gives flexibility to define the links that make sense for your project's process. TrackIt also gives two powerful means to view your project's data. The first is a high level Listing capability, driven by HQL, to view common attributes of the project's items. The second is a raw SQL query used for reporting to CSV, a flexible format that imports into many tools such as Excel, Access, and Open Office.
Customization: Define Unlimited Project Item Types
Out of the box TrackIt comes with builtin support for several XP item types such as Features, Trouble Tickets, Test Cases, Derived Requirements, and many more. However, if these don't meet your project's needs, you can edit and add item types on the fly to make TrackIt work how you need it to.
Usefulness: Custom Developer Content
One of the primary goals of TrackIt was to be useful to the developer. Many Project Tracking tools do an adequate job of supporting project items, but come up short in terms of developer appeal. In TrackIt, each user has:
Up to four customizable RSS Feeds
A customizable rich content area useful for a todo list or personal notes
A high level view of all ticket types pertaining to the user
Eclipse Plugins for common activities (Preliminary support in 1.0 RC2)
