What do you like best about TimelineJS?

What I like best about TimelineJS is the use of the friendly yet highly customizable interface. More, the simplicity of creating good looking timelines just out of a Google sheet is outstanding for novices, while the use of JSON for customizing is perfect for experienced users. Moreover, the large amount of integrated media from different sources improves the storyline making the creation of great-looking timelines very effective. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about TimelineJS?

What I do not like about TimelineJS is that is has limited number of slide in pro version. It is possible that the recommendation of having timelines below twenty slides could be quite limiting to expand any chronological accounts. Furthermore, it can be useless in those stories which share plotlines that are not strict and linear; the tool is best at handling clear chronologies. A second minor disadvantage is that if the Google spreadsheet is not correctly set up there is a chance for mistakes and for the users it can be somewhat complicated to solve this issue.

What problems is TimelineJS solving and how is that benefiting you?

TimelineJS is able to address the major deficiency of basic TIMESTYLE functions by allowing for the creation of highly engaging, responsive templates without any specialized programming knowledge. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about TimelineJS?

Quality of the resulting timeline. Open source. Very easy to setup. It allows to specify all the parts of the timeline in a Google Sheet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about TimelineJS?

Since its goal is very precise, the core concept is no evolving. Although the source code is well maintained, there are not many news regarding its functionality. It gives options to configure the style.

However maybe it is better this way since KinghtLab (authors of TimelineJS) are proposing other tools (also Open Source) for other or similar goals (for example StoryMap is suitable to create a georeferenced timeline). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is TimelineJS solving and how is that benefiting you?

Creating easily a timeline of events, each one with media (video, audito, image) and description. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
