Software for scheduling people across projects and keeping an eye on capacity and utilization. Every tool below is measured against the same criteria, in the same order.
An ERP for project-based service companies and agencies that unifies costing, time tracking, resource planning, controlling and accounting in one platform.
Strengths
Covers costing, time tracking, resource planning and accounting in one system
Hosted in the EU (Austria), ISO/IEC 27001 certified and GDPR-compliant
Multi-project resource management that reprioritises across the whole portfolio when one project slips.
Strengths
Priorities are recalculated across the entire portfolio, so a slip in one project reorders the queue everywhere it competes for the same people
What-if simulation and a forward load graph let a resourcing decision be tested before it is made
DataGuard keeps company data on the customer's own premises, which matters in defence, government and healthcare
Limitations
The Growth plan starts at 20 users and caps at 50 projects and 250 tasks, so small teams and large portfolios both fall outside it
Enterprise pricing is quoted rather than published
Integrations centre on heavyweight planning systems such as Microsoft Project, Primavera and SAP, and connector work is handled as part of implementation rather than through published API documentation
