Why Use Our Project Tracker Template?
This project tracker template allows you to keep track of your projects and manage them without spending too much time in the tracker. You can interact with it from anywhere and update it as you make progress.

What is a Project Tracker?
ProjectManager defines a project tracker as a tool that helps people manage project progress, identify issues with the project, manage project deadlines, and help ensure that the project gets completed on time.
Project trackers are especially useful if your projects have many different components or if they are long-term projects. Tracking them using a template ensures that you are managing the project effectively.
Types of Projects to Track
There are many types of projects that you can track using a project tracker.
Here are a few different types:
- Progress tracker: One of the main uses of a project tracker is to track progress on a specific project. Tracking progress helps you understand what you have completed, what still needs to be done, and what tasks remain.
- Multiple projects tracker: If you have multiple projects to manage, a project tracker is highly recommended so that you don't lose any important information or deadlines for each project.
- Simple projects tracker: Even if your project is simple, a project tracker can be used to ensure that everything goes according to plan.
- Online projects tracker: If you have online projects, project trackers can help you keep tabs on all aspects of them.
- Task tracker: Project trackers can even help you track individual tasks. Doing this helps make sure that each task gets completed accurately and on time.
