Why Upgrade to FastTrack Schedule 2026?

You’re getting great work done in FastTrack Schedule 2024. FastTrack Schedule 2026 builds on everything you already know — the same familiar planning workflow — while modernizing the foundation for today’s Macs, PCs, and teams. Here’s what you gain.

Built for today’s Mac and Windows

Windows is now 64-bit native — FastTrack Schedule 2024 was a 32-bit application; 2026 runs as a full 64-bit app for better performance and headroom.
Mac Universal Binary — runs natively on Intel and Apple Silicon (M1–M5), fully Retina-optimized.
Latest-OS ready — validated for macOS 26 (Tahoe) and Windows 11, with a built-in OS-compatibility assessment that keeps you informed as operating systems evolve.
Native niceties — Dark Mode, iCloud document management with revision history, and Finder Tags on Mac.

Flexible, modern licensing for teams

Cloud-managed Multi-User licensing replaces the legacy Concurrent-User model.
Floating Seats — seats check out on demand and release automatically, with heartbeat and grace-window recovery so a dropped connection never locks you out.
Assigned Seats — dedicated seats for named users.
Easier to deploy, monitor, and reallocate across your organization, with live seat status right inside the app.

Faster and more reliable

Modernized, robust back-end engine — rebuilt internals for performance and stability.
Progress feedback everywhere — file open, sorting, text import, updates, and conversions now show progress instead of appearing to freeze.
Faster launch — licensing checks moved off the startup path.
Windows 11 modern printing engine.

Work smarter

Multi-Level Undo — step back through many recent edits, not just the last one.
Filter by Task Predecessors & Successors — isolate a task’s dependency chain in one step.
Non-working-time indicator on bars — bars can now show the non-working time their duration spans.
AutoFit+ — smarter automatic row and column sizing.
Batch file processing — Convert Files in Folder upgrades and converts many .fts schedules at once.
Plus the full 2026 toolkit: color themes including Dark Mode, highlight & dynamic resource filters, color calendars, one-click reports, 50+ bar/milestone styles, and MS Project / iCal / CSV interoperability.

Keep your files — and your investment — current
