## Reviews

### "Super easy software for managing teams" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *April 5, 2019* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I use this daily for scheduling projects and forecasting who will be available to work on what in the company. This is a great price of software...the subtle micro-interactions are a nice touch.
> 
> **Cons**: I wish it was easier to modify multiple peoples schedules at once.
> 
> Love it

### "Forecast makes project planning easy" — 5.0/5

> **Heather** | *January 6, 2025* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It’s a great way to visualize what projects are going on in the business and see what you will be working on in the future
> 
> **Cons**: I have noticed a few connectivity issues lately and it has been slow to load on some occasions which is frustating
> 
> Overall forecast is a great tool - I enjoy using it and it helps me in my daily work

### "Both Forecast and Harvest are good - but the integration is horrible" — 3.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *April 15, 2019* | Management Consulting | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Every one of the two tools (Harvest / Forecast) does what it should do. Using it is easy as long as you don't want to combine those two tools.
> 
> **Cons**: The integration of Harvest and Forecast (which is meant to go together) does not work at all. The process is not thought through and is highly unintuitive. Just to give you one example. In Harvest Users can't create clients (only admins) but in Forecast everyone can create clients (you can't even change this setting). However to link projects and clients obviously they need to have exactly the same name AND you have to do it manually. &#10;&#10;So now that I have trained 30 people in NOT creating a new client (although the tool allows them to) I have learned that if I try to centralize this process to solve the problem described above I cannot archive a project only in one of those 2 tools which means that now I have a problem because Forecast is not build to keep a good overview about 100+ projects whereas this is no problem in Harvest.... &#10;&#10;Really terrible. I believe the product manager (who by the way does not want to talk to me although I asked for) has never actually used the process himself.
> 
> Recommended if you only need one or the other tool ... but don't use it if you want to use the (logical) combination.

### "Looks nice but didn’t meet our planning needs" — 4.0/5

> **Alexander** | *May 19, 2025* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The interface is clean and modern. It’s easy to jump in and start using without a ton of upfront training.
> 
> **Cons**: The forecasting logic didn’t match how we track projects. Customization felt limited and hard to work around.
> 
> It had potential but didn’t really fit how our team works. We tried to make it work but ended up switching tools.

### "Very convenient to use" — 5.0/5

> **Abby** | *November 24, 2024* | Alternative Medicine | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Very conveniently helps you keep track of all of your scheduling needs
> 
> **Cons**: I didn’t notice anything that I didn’t like however some of the employees had issues updating theirs
> 
> I was very pleased with my experience with Forecast and it is great for scheduling

Red bars indicate when an employee is overbooked, so you can move projects and deadlines around before they become burnt out. It's also easy to see when someone has availability to take on a new project and exactly how much time they can devote to it. Share your plans with the entire team so everyone knows what they should be working on, and when. \n\nIntegrate Forecast with its sister app Harvest to gain insight into project progress and improve your estimating and scheduling. The integration brings the hours you've scheduled in Forecast into Harvest, so you can see exactly when a project will go over budget. Plus you can compare the time you scheduled for someone in Forecast with the time they actually tracked in Harvest, letting you pinpoint potential problem areas.","image":"https://gdm-catalog-fmapi-prod.imgix.net/ProductScreenshot/ace1359f-72fa-4053-a4f1-9404e7dae2ba.png","url":"https://www.getapp.ca/software/109303/forecast","@type":"SoftwareApplication","@id":"https://www.getapp.ca/software/109303/forecast#software","applicationCategory":"BusinessApplication","publisher":{"@id":"https://www.getapp.ca/#organization"},"aggregateRating":{"@type":"AggregateRating","bestRating":5,"ratingCount":32,"ratingValue":4.3},"offers":{"price":"6.25","@type":"Offer","priceCurrency":"USD"},"operatingSystem":"Cloud"},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","@id":"https://www.getapp.ca/software/109303/forecast#breadcrumblist","itemListElement":[{"name":"Home","position":1,"item":"/","@type":"ListItem"},{"name":"Scheduling Software","position":2,"item":"/directory/233/scheduling/software","@type":"ListItem"},{"name":"Forecast","position":3,"item":"/software/109303/forecast","@type":"ListItem"}]}]}
