Situation: Your Need an Easy, Flexible Org Chart Solution for Your Project Team.

OrgPlus LiveOrgPlusLive offers a quick (also free to try) way to build org charts that seems tailor made for project teams.  Here are a few features that I thought were cool, beyond the typical, yet essential, drag and drop:

Importing team names and titles from an Excel spreadsheet.  
So if you have a team list of 20 people with titles or other descriptive info, you can import it and "bang", there are all of your pre-populated people boxes.  You just saved a grueling 20 minutes of data entry.

Secure online storage
This means you can store the chart online, where only your team can access it - with all of the "update once" abilities that offers.

Flexible exports
You can export the chart in a number of formats allow you to print and easily include it in other documents.

Having a current org chart is a great thing.  Particularly for team that are constantly changing.  Often it isnt done, because of the additional overhead.  I think this goes a long way toward solving that problem.
