I would like to try a more visual and spatial approach to project planning software. Most of the major solutions, like JIRA, are more like interacting with a RDBDMS through a UI. (Although I admit JQL is very useful, so I don't want to throw that away entirely.)

Here's another product I found recently that allows users to draw out their project plan, and have it turned into management-friendly reports automatically:

No comment on whether or not this is actually good, since I have never tried it, but it presents a refreshing concept.
