Very easy way to visualize whole teams workloads. Can schedule and plan who can work on which projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It should remind people to fill in their hours. I am always having to remind people to get their hours up to date. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ease of use is the first thing that comes to mind. Forecast is a simple solution that presents data in an easy to understand way. This makes on-boarding easier across all departments, as assigning and viewing assigned hours is easy. We've found it best in our organization to have one designated super admin, and then at a weekly meeting we spend about 15 minutes discussing and scheduling the work for the week, checking hours for resources and making sure that no one is over/under booked.

With that ease of use unfortunately comes some loss (or lack) of information. It's not as detailed as something like JIRA, but it is ahead of the rest in terms of how it visually presents and organizes vital information. While this is a downside, I really don't hold it against Forecast as, again, the simplicity of the visual interface is what sells it for my team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like the most is the booking. I can plainly observe is the group is overallocated or not. Also, the client administration is splendid. At whatever point there is an issue, they can help in a split second and precisely answer the given inquiry. At long last, the activities see. It has numerous helpful highlights and UI is an artful culmination! What's more, It can be chosen what is essential to you and what you need to see when entered the rundown of the activities. Extremely simple to explore and change the information inside the application. It is essentially incredible! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It allows management and project leads to determine the amount of hours that are being dedicated to various company projects. This provides them with an idea of personal requirements going forward for future business and current clients. The user interface for the tool is very easy to navigate through and not too much of a learning curve is required for the end users to update it regularly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It unfortunately does not have a private view for the end user, in case they want to track projects that the user does not want management, project managers, or other company employees to see. It could have more integration capabilities with other Harvest products, but does offer some useful ones at the moment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The simplicity of user interface is awesome. Makes it easy to see who is available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

People are not auto-added to projects in Harvest if they have been added to a project in Forecast. This makes it double work to add someone in Forecast then remember to go back and add them in Harvest so they can bill time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Forecast integrates with Harvest. Creating a project, team, and schedule is extremely easy. Essentially you can map out your engineering teams schedule in advance or for an entire lifecycle of the project. I can add milestones and hours per date - the at a glance view of a full project, forecast, schedule is one of the best features for your PMO. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes its very slow - when trying to make updates it can take a bit of time to actually get it. Could be more performant. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The solution also offers in-depth insights that every member can take a look at. This level of collaboration paves the way to higher efficiency, as everyone is aware of the state of projects and are aware of what they can do to be more productive.

I like being able to see what I'm going to be doing without having to bug anyone, as well as seeing which of my co-workers have bandwidth in case I need a hand on something, without having to ask around. You can also see if you have gone below or over your projected hours as it integrates with Harvest, the time tracker. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes it feels like it's hard to have a recurring project time (say 40 hours a week on a project for months) and add in PTO, it seems like you're working a ton of hours that week unless you go in and tweak each individual day, which is sort of tedious. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
