-
Premium users can include
C) Collaboration
The 10-item limitation applies in the context of collaboration as well.
-
If any collaborator is using a Free license, all users will see a watermark, and timeline downloads will be disabled; regardless of their individual plan.
D) Importing
- Free users can import up to 10 milestones and/or tasks per timeline from tools like Microsoft Project, Excel, Smartsheet, and Jira; watermark-free.
-
Premium users can import up to 150 rows of data and instantly create full-featured timelines without any watermark.
E) Timeline Refresh
-
Free users can refresh timelines connected to Excel, Project, or Jira, but any timeline with more than 10 items will display a watermark.
-
Premium users have no refresh limitations.
F) Timeline Downloads
-
Premium users can download their complete timelines as PowerPoint slides, PNG images, or Excel files, regardless of how many items are included.
-
Free users cannot download timelines.
G) Templates
-
Both Free and Premium accounts have full access to all templates in the Office Timeline Online gallery.
H) What happens when my license is downgraded to Free?
If your subscription expires or your Premium license is revoked, your Office Timeline Online account and saved timelines will not be deleted. Instead, your account will revert to Free, and your content will be accessible within the Free plan's limitations.
Key considerations:
-
Timelines with more than 10 items will display a watermark. To remove it, you’ll need to upgrade your account.
-
If your timeline has collaborators, the current collaborators will remain, but all shared timelines will have a watermark displayed.
