We love the ability to zoom in and out and have different views of our timeline. > > **Cons**: What I (currently) miss most is the ability to quickly update the schedule. For example, to select multiple "tasks" for one employee and move them 1 or more days forward, in other words, to shift or postpone someone's entire schedule. We change schedules quite frequently so it would be easier for us to have this enabled. But I've heard that this would be possible down the road. > > Overall, RG was a game-changer for us. Since we have implemented it, we got a better overview of our projects and became able to plan ahead and more long-term. ----- ### "Happy Project Manager" — 5.0/5 > **Megan** | *August 12, 2024* | Internet | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy to use, highly visual, quick to update. > > **Cons**: The utilization report doesn't seem to reflect available billable hours when taking PTO/OOO out of the equation. This results in our utilization typically looking lower than it is in reality. > > The customer service has been great and adopting the tool among our team has been very smooth and easy\! ----- ### "Glorified spreadsheet" — 1.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *July 8, 2019* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: Nothing at all. It has no redeeming qualities. > > **Cons**: Allows you to book time without tasks. When asked to change this was told couldn't because some companies want that function, ie it isn't an option as it should be. The drop downs are fiddle and make it easy to select a blank, but doesn't warn you. Can't toggle between scrolling list and typing to search without cl king out of area. You have a set number of hours per day you need to book but it doesn't highlight those that are short- you have to hover to see remaining time but that function doesn't work properly, resulting in multiple clicks to get it to trigger. Colour by project doesn't actually do it, I'm on 6 projects yet only see 2 colours. Can push to calendar but not pull- useless function as meetings are booked in calendar to allow invites, you want guru to pull that data in to autofill. Though it is web based it is impossible to use on a mobile. The popups are always off screen, making it impossible to use - mobile friendly websites have been around for a very long time, lazy to not have it here, particularly as would allow people who are on the road to log their time on he go. Not worth the hassle even if free. > > Causes more problems than it solves. We used to use a spreadsheet, it was much better than this. ----- ### "RG is great for keeping track of resources and utilization of employees" — 5.0/5 > **Larry** | *December 9, 2022* | Facilities Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: functionality, ease of use, visibility and the way we're able to allow access to certain functions > > **Cons**: would be nice to have a search function to look up past and future information > > RG has made scheduling much simpler and visible across our organization ----- ### "Simple and to the point - Resource Gu does the one thing we need most, and it does it extremely well" — 5.0/5 > **Bill** | *April 26, 2021* | Oil & Energy | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Simplicity and focus. Resource Guru solves one problem, a problem that is key to our business - which is project resource assignment and scheduling. It does it quickly, and easily. Our prior tool required us to understand a complex CRM system with multiple interrelated functions. Resource Guru gives us the availability, assignment and schedule tools we need to deliver our projects without needless overhead. > > **Cons**: I would like more user defined fields when we assign a resource to a project. We assign a project sales phase type to each project, and we assign an individual billing rate to each resource, which can be different for each day of the project. We currently do that using a strict taxonomy in the "Notes" field and them use an Excel macro to parse that information out for sales and revue forecasting. While this doe take a bit of management and programming magic - it is still orders fo magnitude less complicated that it was previously when we managed this data in our CRM system. Having those filed would just make our lives all that much simpler. > > It has been a significant enhancement o our workflow. Our prior use of our CRM system to do what Resource Guru does was costing us at least a full day per week. Now we get it all done in an hour our tow. ----- Page: 1 / 23\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ca/software/90739/resource-guru?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ca/software/90739/resource-guru) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
