Businessplan Software?? Desperate.

[Fintan]

As the title intones I am desperately looking for a Businessplan software for Linux.

Something along the lines of Planmaker or the PaloAlto line of Apps. for Windows.

I have asked around but nobody seams to know of any such thing. I know there are templates for oofice (actually Excel) but one has to buy them and doesn't really know if it(they) will do the job and a template is not the same as a fullblown app.

I would do it myself if I knew how to program and had the time.

So if anyone can help I can finally format c:/

Cheers

Re: Businessplan Software?? Desperate.

Thanks but that is where i went first. There are mabe acouple of apps that i could use for different aspects of a business plan but that is defeating the object. After all if i put my mind / time to it i could do it all in open office writer/calc. I need one application that automizes the proceedure.

I'll keep on looking.

Is this the planmaker you are referring to?

Because if so then according to the site there is currently a public beta available for linux which may be worth checking out.
