yes, there is "Gantt project planner" template already listed in Excel 2016. Once you open your Excel, Search for it instead of choosing Blank workbook

You can also design your own using data bars from "Conditional Formatting" tool under Home tab

well actually composing any thing with Ms office is handy and very much friendly.It some time takes time to build a better one because of many versions available depending with which you are more familiar.Actually being in practice also matters so I will say that Excel is far better for me then any other soft.
