Visual Planning Reviews

What I like most is its diverse capabilities from scheduling appointments through a unique dashboard with activity tracking, automated scheduling, and approval workflow processes.

The most notable con is visual planning does not integrate well with 3rd party tools. in the future, it would be nice for businesses who use visual planning to have a voice in terms of speaking on what tools they recommend to integrate with Visual Planning.

Features and navigation are very user-friendly. It is easy to learn and become proficient with. Provides clear visuals and easy to understand.

Limited functionality in automation and encountered glitches when deploying auto-email notifications

The things I like most about Visual Planning is the specifically tailored use interface to our business model and needs - it provides a platform that fits our unique resource management and scheduling needs.

Visual planning is a smart tool that has a ton of functionality, but is almost too feature-rich. It is not very user-friendly, takes time to learn and customize to become fully self-sufficient and to fully optimize the software and workflows. It could use some digital design improvements to make it look and feel more comfortable and not so clunky.

Dear Nickolas, Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts on Visual Planning. We appreciate your feedback, and we're glad to hear that our platform aligns with your business model and resource management needs. We understand your point about the platform's extensive functionality, which can be a double-edged sword. While it provides powerful features, we acknowledge that it may take some...

We appreciate being able to create templates in VP that are used for our trials. We like the way we can see PTO and know what staff is available.

Training is a little cumbersome and if you aren’t using every day it’s a little tricky to become a super user.

Dear Theresa, Thank you for your positive review of Visual Planning! We're thrilled to hear that our platform has been a great ops tool for your organization. It's fantastic that you find our template creation feature useful for your trials and that our PTO tracking helps you keep tabs on staff availability.

The ability to configure and leverage items inside the software and then add visual aids to specific items as they are configured. There are so many options to bend and leverage where it creates a new learning experience every day. This is the best for my role as systems become boring when learning stops.

Mostly, the ability to make a major change to the base configuration of Dimensions such as placing statuses all within a dimension or creating multiple Dimensions. This is just one example but not a major issue. My biggest issue is the ability to kick off individual users when they have not logged out. I have a global platform and sometimes licenses used in Europe and India are taken when the licenses are needed in the USA. I have to kick off all users in order to free up those licenses.

Dear Lloyd, Thank you for sharing your positive experience with Visual Planning. We're delighted to hear that you enjoy creating and configuring the software to continuously improve your existing systems. Your appreciation for the flexibility of our platform and the ability to configure it to your unique needs is fantastic. We understand that the constant learning and adaptability are crucial in...

The scheduling portion of Visual Planning was the main draw for our company to look into using Visual Planning for our service department. The additional ability of Visual Planning to customize the program to do many other things is what sealed the deal. Our implementation specialist was top notch and was highly involved throughout the process. We always felt that our needs were understood and would be met throughout the entire process. We had a large integration process since we are now using Visual Planning for every aspect that touches our service department from scheduling to service reports, quoting, invoicing, and timesheets. We are pleased that what we thought we were buying is what we ended up with as our end product. Overall we are very pleased.

We have a lot of integration and automation as part of our solution, so sometimes the system can be slow. We have been working on small changes to see if this can be improved, as we are only about 2 months into using VP on a day to day basis.

Dear Mary, Thank you for sharing your experience with Visual Planning. We're thrilled to hear that our platform has had a revolutionary impact on the way you run your service department. It's great to know that the scheduling feature initially drew your company to Visual Planning and that the ability to customize the program for various needs sealed the deal. We take pride in providing a flexible...

I do not have any dislikes. I can only mention one thing that can be enhanced in this platform. Visual Planning software does not integrate with many third-party tools, which may be a drawback for businesses that rely on a wide range of software applications. This capability can be improved to some extent in the platform.

We have a small Marketing team here, and with Visual Planning it gives us a different experience to plan our project and allocate our budget. More than that, we can analyze the result/performance with it.

Visual Planning helps increase the productivity of daily routines by intuitively scheduling tasks and commitments with colleagues and clients. It is very user-friendly.

Easy implementation of the forms, views and points system. Planning of Shifts. VP Portal for our officers which can be accessed through web. Drag and drop features at many places with extensive filter options Has got good calendar view. Easy backup and deployment. Very friendly for dev/admin teams. Technical product Support is very good.

1. Implementation of SSO, doesn't differentiate the username and SSO identifier, both are coupled with username and if SSO identifier will be 36 digit alphanumeric and unique value, we need to use the same as username which makes the transactional logging history with gibberish 36 digit value and users will not make to identify who modified the record actually. 2. Using of OAuth for O365

[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] made the purchasing and implementation of VP for our company easy and enjoyable. They're both extremely knowledgeable on their assigned topics, and helped facilitate the building and implementation of VP into our company with ease. VP is a huge step up from our prior method of tracking/calendars.

It has MANY layers. While it is a good thing, so an outsider/average user it can be confusing or intimidating.

Visual Planning now has a modern and sleek look and feel to it. Previous incarnations were always a little behind the times, but now it looks and feels good. It is now easier to 'see' the key data, manage it and share it, making it highly valuable for the business and allowing us to operate efficiently and effectively.

It isn't a 2 minute setup, which won't work too well for small businesses, as it front loads some of the costs. For medium to larger businesses this won't be an issue, as they will have a ready to go tool that works for them, out of the box and the value of the configuration will far outweigh the costs of doing it wrong.

The visual presentation/breakdown within the platform is very helpful and needed for what we utilize the software for.

At times (rarely) the system can seem slightly slow or bogged down/glitchy.

Visual Planning is a great solution for us for two reasons: 1) It is extremely flexible and customizable. No matter how complex your scheduling is, Visual Planning can be set up to do it. Multiple level scheduling, custom data fields and forms, powerful linking and data relationships, event reporting and dashboards are all possible with Visual Planning. 2) The visual interface. We have extremely complex scheduling requirements. We need see multiple pieces of equipment, their locations, their associated tests, manpower and auxillary equipment all in one place. Visual Planning is only solution out there with that capability. It lets us readily see what is going on with our schedule *and* easily modify and change things while seeing the implications.

The only downside to Visual Planning is that is is so powerful, sometimes there is a bit of a learning curve. With that said, the Visual Planning team is a great help in creating interfaces and layouts that are useful and helpful.

As an assistant to a Project Manager we had our own spreadsheets that had the basic information needed. But we decided to purchase a software to rely on and make our lives easier. And so it did. We've been with VPS for about a year and are absolutely grateful for it! It has saved us from numerous mistakes and overall, helped us grow as a company since we started to keep better tabs on all ends of our planning.

We really don't have any thing negative to say but this has helped us incredibly and recommend it for everybody who needs a little help with the Project Management.

Permite automatizar de una forma rápida las áreas como son, recursos humanos, gestión de proyectos, CRM, servicios externos entre otros, ha sido un elemento fundamental para evolucionar en las áreas que se incorporó.

La única desventaja que se ha encontrado es que siempre toca tener una conexión directa a internet, por lo que es un aplicativo basado en la nube.

Hi Brayan, thank you for your review! We're glad to hear that our platform has helped streamline your operations. In most cases where there are multiple users accessing the same planner, VP is installed on a server, and each computer would need to be connected to it. However, there are ways you can access VP without having to connect to a server, such as installing VP on your computer or using the VPGo app in "offline" mode. Please reach out to our IT Support or your main point of contact for further assistance on this matter.

Al ser todo muy visual ayuda a que el equipo se comprometa con cada funciona signada, ya que todo el equipo está al tanto de los progresos de los colegas, hasta que incluso puede ser motivación para terminar los asignados ti

Yo no lo pagaba, pero creo que es caro, pero dependiendo del equipo de trabajo y los objetivos de los proyectos puede ser bastante útil y práctico

Yosue, Thank you for sharing your experience! We're delighted that our dynamic project management software resonated with your team's motivation. We understand cost considerations vary, and we appreciate your perspective on its practicality based on specific team dynamics and project objectives. If you ever have more insights to share, we're all ears! Sincerely, The Visual Planning Team

Ergonomie plutôt pas mal (on comprend vite comment ça marche)

Una interfaz preciosa y super atractiva visualmente, de las mejores de las herramientas de este tipo. Me encanta también la infinidad de opciones que tienes (planning, mapas, reportes...). Probablemente no necesites nada más para organizar bien tus tareas y las de tu equipo.

A veces nos ha pasado que hay un exceso de información en cosas que no requieren tener tantos inputs. A veces tardas demasiado tiempo en apuntar y completar toda la info de cada tareas, y en mantener todo actualizado al día
