They also support time zones and all. @Ruud

It was pretty clumsy. Might be ok for Mickey Mouse projects but nothing requiring sophistication. At least it was free. Also tried NXS-7′s Task Analytics in the past. It was pretty clumsy.

We use them for wall decoration to impress the customer. It works! Half a year ago we started using http://www.burndownchart.nl for our burndown charts. Gantt charts are a pain.

It's really finicky software to use. CorelDraw is simpler. For Burnup charts/velocity reports I have been using NXS-7's Task Analytics http://task-analytics.com. So far it's been awesome.

However the simple burn-down isn't perfect. I made a change to the Y-axis by addind Level of Effort instead a count of features (for example, simple features / Use Cases can be have a value of 1, and complex ones could have a value of 10) so the line will be reduced in a representative way according to the Level of Effort executed.
