What’s the difference between the Plan section and the Process overview?

Main differences and uses of the plan and process overview.

Use the Plan section for day-to-day collaboration. Use Process overview for a high-level timeline of major milestones. The Plan section is better for ownership, next steps, and ongoing collaboration. Process overview is better for showing the bigger picture and creating urgency around the overall process.

Use the Plan section when you need:

  • Day-to-day collaboration around next steps or a MAP

  • Clear ownership and accountability

  • In-context discussion instead of long email threads

  • A working area for ongoing execution

Use the Process overview when you need:

  • A high-level timeline of major milestones

  • A simple view of the overall process up to value delivery

  • A collaborative timeline you can update with the buyer

  • Visibility into what comes next without managing every task there

A simple rule to follow

  • Use Plan when both sides need to manage the work

  • Use Process overview when both sides need to understand the timeline

Still not sure which one to use?

Start with Process overview if you want a lightweight milestone view.

Add Plan when the deal or onboarding process needs active collaboration, ownership, and follow-through.
