A good transition from Excel sheets to something else is Trello.
It's
free, lets you set deadlines, has a calendar, can separate tasks by
person, etc. I use it a lot. It seems perhaps overly simplistic
at first
glance, but if your needs fit into a spreadsheet, it will give you
everything you gain from that plus a lot more.

management programs is that they are designed for really large
projects with many people and typically PMP certified folks using
the package. It still requires a lot of setup and customization
for your particular project. If you are proficient in excel you
can get it done quicker there.

forecasting of those tasks completions. I used to be a project
troubleshooter for a tower company, the typical reason for
projects falling behind and getting out of control was the lack
of task completion forecast dates and a failure to examine those
dates on a daily basis. These dates set goals for employees and
contractors and helps them manage their priorities and workload.
