Organizational Relationship Plotting Software?

I'm looking for something similar to what you'll find on the website muckety.com, but hostable on my own machine(s) and customizable. I see that muckety offers their program and database for rental, but I thought I'd see if there was either a more free option, or more elegant alternatives.

Basically, any software that allows you to visually plot and track interpersonal relationships between organization figures.

Thanks!

What is this I don't even.

    Visio? Org Chart is build in for organization hierarchies, and you can modify the basic flow chart stuff to describe any set of relationships you have. What form is your data in?

    I've used visio. Check out what muckety actually does to get a feel for what I'm talking about. It allows you to dynamically generate graphics that are similar to what visio can plot, but it's interactive. You can add or remove relationship factors and groups as you go while brainstorming, which is the goal.

    UMLet would be pretty good.

    Not really the intended purpose, but you can make diagrams essentially identical to what you create on muckety.

    I just started learning Graphviz for a class, and it might be what you're looking for.
