We have been using Hub Planner for over 3 years and it has been a very successful tool for our project and team resource planning. Simple to plan in the work and review view our stand-up meetings.

Integration with the business was easy and the stand-out feature was the resource planning calendar. Easy to schedule projects across our internal and external teams.

The reporting has lots of options but it's not the easiest to use.

It's fine, the benefits are really to my managers, not me. You'll have to ask them

The main reason we chose this platform over others is the ability to plan employee capacity into the future.

I don't like the project display system. I don't like that multiple projects can have the same name. I don't like that if a project is deleted all of that time entered goes with it and there is no record or notification. The dashboard isn't super usable

It's an easy-to-use, clear and useful resource management tool Detailed and precise reporting We have replaced three of our systems with one product It streamlined our operation We now have a software that is customisable but most of all used by our employees to satisfaction of all involved

We chose Hub Planner to get serious about resource planning and to move away from spreadsheets and emails. It was very easy to set up to suit our needs. Grouping and filtering resources proved very handy. It integrated our timesheet system which is now much more precise and user-friendly. The recent annual leave feature replaced our previous system and is very easy to manage. The reports are detailed (or not) as we choose and quick to generate. The software is intuitive and nicely customisable so we can see exactly the information we need without any unnecessary clutter. I personally have to command the customer service which is quick, reliable and personable. There are not always quick solutions (like in life!) but there always seems to be a workaround. The product seems to be going from strength to strength with new features and upgrades/updates regularly which is good to see. Overall, we are very happy with the product and can definitely recommend it.

Since this software is still in development, there are features that we would like to have and are not available (yet) - but of course we realise these things take some time. However, we are very happy with the progress and new features added over the course of our use (about 2 years). There are the occasional intermittent issues but the CS team is very quick to sort these out.

I had and continue to (on an ad hoc basis) have very positive dealings with [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] (Irish) based in Sweden I believe.

As we reached a certain size, it was clear we required a resource management Tool. The IT PMO approached this as part of our annual 'Hack Day', we researched and trialled numerous offerings and ultimately settled on Hubplanner. We had it set up and active within a day. It also has significantly reduced the time and people involvement in our fortnightly resource planning sessions.

We really only use the Resource Management aspect of the software. There are numerous features thatw e already have a working solution in place for. A pro/rata rate for selecting only the services you need would be a great win.,

Overall i'm quite happy with hub planner, it seems to serve our basic resource tracking needs

Ability to see forecast vs reported, Dashboard & Reporting feature

Inability to adjust dates on the dashboard, and set 'line-managers' to approve time-sheets, rather than projects managers as it currently stands. Would also be ideal to have more support through calls, rather than by email which can be frustrating at times.

We have reduced the management of resource planning & also the number of times files became corrupt. Also, allowing different groups different access levels meant we could provide management reporting and user reporting in the same application. Introducing timesheets means we were able to move to a single application rather than two for planning & time recording.

Easy planning features that can be viewed through project, resource group or other lenses is powerful. Integrating this to Hub-Planner timesheet functionality was equally simple and reduces the effort users have to do to complete their timesheets due to the pre-population. Data extraction & the ability to build customer reports is straightforward. The help guides are detailed & comprehensive, but if they don't provide the answers, the support team are fantastic & responsive, providing a fast & efficient resolution to any problems or questions.

There are a lot of things you can configure within Hub Planner, but if you want a fully customized solution then Hub Planner may not work for you.

Really pleased with this software as modifications are easily done and I have all info needed in one place (Resource, planning, finance)

The ease with which you can create resources and plan them on projects. Timewise, PMs get to save a lot of time to visualize their resource planning and in a snap can decide who to move and where, whenever needed

I cannot track time on individual developments. I need to use Categories for this and with the number of ongoing projects, the length of the pull down is getting longer, day by day and getting unmanageable.

I am using this to see my daily file assignment

The display of each task on days and set up of calendar

the inability to expand on each task bubble to see more information of task assigned

know what to do on my Sprint without the needed to contact my Delivery Lead

Sending emails all the time when we do a change, I think is not necessary

Average

Ease of planning and resource assignment

Limited capabilities and reporting options

For our resource utilization challenges, Hub Planner has been instrumental.

I like the ease of use and the ability to navigate multiple functionalities and reporting features quickly.

Include time-charging as a baseline feature. The ability to show actual recorded hours for weeks past.

The software was very easy to use and intuitive. It takes very little time to understand the basics, so you can get up running with it quickly. It is also possible to do quite a bit of customization to fit your organization when it comes to resource profiles, types of projects/activities/work, etc. Hubplanner is relatively quick to implement new functionality based on user demand.

The ticket system for customer service is logical and queries are answered quickly, but it would be improved UX to have an account manager to call for very quick action/support.

Hub planner is the best time reporting system I've used. Forecasted project assignment makes it very straightforward and the interface is good. I've had limited exposure to the reporting side but I can see the assignments of myself and my team easily.

Sometimes hard to see comments around task detail with the hover-over.

For the sake of time tracking it works very well.

Its easy to use in terms of planning how much time should i spend on each project daily. Easy to report how many hours have I spent on a project.

I think that integrations with other systems like GitHub or GitLab would be awesome feature.

Easy to use and powerful. You have access to different areas related to resources and projects with 1 click.

Hard to get global reports based on hours booked per project against total time spent.

Easy timesheet organisation and input Work calendar laid out clearly Everything you need in one place Makes it easier to organise and liaise with administration team Graphical and user-friendly interface

Sometimes if you input an error into your timesheet, you are not allowed to edit and correct the issue

- easy to use, and straight forward in handling - nice design

- it is not possible to delete a TC entry once a time is selected

The easiest tech I've used to log my hours!

The feature of creating your own time reports could be a bit better.

Is a very easy software to use for project tracking and projections.

can be difficult to add new projects and requires admin support.

That is quite inuitive and that all the allocation codes and project I can allocate time to are already pre-recorded in the system. This makes it quick and easy.

this does not have anything to do with the software but I don't remember to log time as often as I should and I find it hard to remember what I did for every hour of every week

Hub Planner makes managing the manpower and workflow easy.

- allows a fast overview of your and your teams jobs - makes it easy to stay updated - allows better planning

Not that much here. Would be helpful, if the timesheet of the person logging in would pop out always on top without typing in your name.

The HUB Planner platform has streamline out S&OP planning process. Out project managers now have the information they need to structure budgets around resource availability and project timelines. We are making more informed decisions from hiring to sales because of HUB Planner.

The tool itself provides an intuitive set of reporting tools and visuals on our team. In addition to the native tools the read and write API makes decision making possible across platforms.

Some of the permissions could be bifurcated further into "edit" and "view" buckets. A marginal increase in baseline environment configurations could go a long way.

Very good. It's fun and easy to see our next schedule and the upcoming projects.

Easy access to the schedule of everybody.

The schedule is only on a line. Could be great is the schedule for one person could be set to see more than few weeks.

It works for me. It is simple and gets the job done.

It allows me to easily see what is coming up on my project list.

No complaints, but I'm only an end user, so I don't use that many features.
