It also monitors their progress and identifies potential problems without relying on calendars and spreadsheets. Users can create repeating or split plans and display them on Google Events or Office 365. Multiple vacations and workload schemes may be added or absorbed into the plan. It is hosted on a centralized platform to ensure overlapping cannot occur. Users may save or filter resource planning views and set up permissions so that administrators approve plans before actioning them. Timesheets may be auto-generated from the plans entered into the system. Tempo Planner also has visual tools to help users balance workloads, ensuring certain teams are not overburdened while others are underutilized. Team members can add information, add plans and make requests. Employees can use a ticket or a priority system to dictate when the administrator should address concerns or requests. > > Verdict: Rated **4.1/5** by 29 users.

As a team of meeting and event planners, Tempo allows us to assign the right planner to the job and provide them with the tools, resources and collaborators they need\! > > **Cons**: No cons thus far, we're still learning how to use it for forecasting but so far it has been incredibly user friendly and the entire team has adopted it seamlessly. > > As a small boutique firm of event planners and designers, we're loving the ease of use as we use Tempo Capacity to assign the right planner for the right job\! ----- ### "Assertive Solution for Task Management" — 5.0/5 > **Riabilitazione** | *29 April 2024* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Tempo Planner brings a defined way of handling tasks, and proper information is shared to ensure resources are accurately managed. > > **Cons**: Tempo Planner brings the best results in matters tasks control and planning without defects. ----- ### "Need more flexibility in visibility/reporting" — 2.0/5 > **Rachel** | *30 July 2020* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is easy to input a block of time and the software will automatically allocate daily amounts for you. > > **Cons**: It is not possible to hide planned time from the production team, and this planned time shows up in Tempo where team members go daily to log this time. Because the time is broken out in equal parts across the assigned time period, it is often broken into odd increments that do not fit our 15 minute increment structure. Because this is surfaced to the team, we anticipate issues with them logging planned time rather than their actuals and fussing when their actuals do not match the planned resourcing for the week (which they often do not). We also miss the capability to color code the planned work by project manager (which we had in Float). The overhead view of all resources is not as easy to break down as our previous program, Float, because it does not surface enough detail. We also cannot export the single most important report as a CSV (estimates versus actuals), which was the \#1 reason we anticipated moving to Tempo planner in the first place. > > In conjunction with our Senior Project Manager, I tried out Tempo planner on just the project management team and did not feel it was well fit to our needs. We submitted a ticker to tempo/jira, and our needs are not able to be met (CSV esport of estimates versus actuals, very important to our workflow). Because of this, we are looking into alternatives. We are still trying to move away from Float, our current resourcing tool, but are not sure that Tempo Planner would suit us any better. ----- ### "Tempo Planner is a great software tool to help business owners to organized and profitable." — 5.0/5 > **Alison** | *9 July 2023* | Information Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like Tempo Planner because you can navigate through the software easy. > > **Cons**: Its a great overall software tool to have because it help business owners save money and time. Its also helps business owners stay organized with their business. ----- ### "Tempo Planner review" — 5.0/5 > **Ayomikun** | *12 January 2024* | Telecommunications | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Useful when assigning teams to different projects. > > **Cons**: So far so good.
