Simplify project management with your team

Dropbox Paper has a better way for you to collaborate on documents with your team. Just create a timeline template for whatever documents need a project timeline – such as creative briefs, launch plans and social media calendars.

Share the template with your team, add placeholder text to help them understand what they need to fill in and give them edit access. And any adjustments you make are automatically saved in real time.

Project timeline example

Keep everyone engaged and informed with timeline templates

Dropbox project plan templates help you organise and track projects from start to finish. Make to-do lists and assign tasks to specific team members so everyone knows who’s doing what. Easily keep track of – and change, as needed – project status updates, team roles, project timelines and other key info.

An example of a good project timeline is a timeline that’s transparent for everyone involved. A project timelines isn’t just for management or stakeholders. When all team members have access to the document, they’re able to see when everything is due while also creating a collaborative workspace that helps everyone share ideas and, as needed, address the urgency for certain projects to be completed. A good project timeline is both transparent and flexible.

The main purpose of a timeline is to clearly outline and adhere to a project’s intended goals and timeframes, including all delivery dates and resources needed during a specific project. A project timeline helps you or your team stay on track to help ensure that everyone is organised and working towards the same timeline goals within the project scope.

Dropbox Paper timeline templates help make project management more effective because Paper has been designed to allow team members to create a visual representation of a project, as well as to designate who is responsible for a given task. By mapping out all the steps of a project in one document, everyone can literally stay on the same page. Dropbox Paper timeline templates are especially effective for teams that are in various locations as it helps them to stay in constant contact with other team members no matter where they are.
