LiquidPlanner Reviews & Product Details

Easy to communicate with teammates through the notes and tagging.

Would like a to do list on the homepage.

Helping with Project planning and making sure all teammates have access to assets they need to complete tasks

The fact that the tool doest not permit staff overload (compared to most of scheduling tools) 1) The ease of defining a Work Breakdown Structure 2) Ease of defining custom fields 3) Filtering facilities 4) User interface 5) on-line help

Not too much possibilities for access restriction (e.g. I would like to permit some users to access some projects in "Read Only" mode

Scheduling, Daily work organization, Reporting via dashboards or analytics The tool helps me to be more productive

Smart system. Everything has been carefully thought through so there has never been a need that didn't have a solution. Customer support is fantastic. After years of use, they still stick with us when we have new staff or old questions. The support isn't just how to use the tool but how to properly manage projects with the tool. We've learned as much about project management as we have regarding how to use their software.

Not so much as a dislike as the unfortunate reality of the situation. There is a learning curve on how to properly develop a project management process. And, understandably, there is a learning curve to their software. Some concepts are counter-intuitive and we needed to rethink how we approached our projects. But while that was difficult, it was (and continues to be) a positive for the team.

We have a clear SOP around contract execution that is followed by the full team because we've embedded this system in LP. We know our capacity, workload, and how we're performing against budgets in near real-time. I have clear company KPIs and am able to track productivity and overhead easily.

Likes: Gantt chart and baseline reporting, analytics and dashboards, time tracking, lists within tasks with multiple owners Can manage both waterfall and agile projects side-by-side; adding docs from other sources (google, dropbox); communicating about project tasks on the task page.

Current challenges are exporting to MS Project and timesheet mgmt only via export

LiquidPlanner allows us to structure projects across teams and manage deadlines for internal and client-focused projects. We manage deadlines, SoW criteria, track time, assign and update projects efficiently with the tool. We've looked at other options and find that LP continues to give us what we need at a reasonable cost.

The automated priority based scheduling and ability to keep all project details and communication in one location. Emailing to tasks.

Lack of pushing Google calendar events into system. Lack of mobile app. Lack of Slack integration.

Task management Centralized project detail upkeep Historical project time tracking Weekly timesheet export

The ease of setting up your projects in the LP.

You need to be creative when working Agile projects with Sprints.

Allocation of resources is a huge problem LP helps me solve. We have limited resources, yet management assigns these same resources to multiple projects. LP helps me show how the resources are being used and what happens to project deliverables when we lower the percentage of time those resources spend on assigned projects.

Creating, appointing and managing teams and projects is simple. For LiquidPlanner it is easy to track progress of projects. The software enhances consumer reporting in a timely manner. This app allows time tracking on activities and projects.

No difficulties to point out that this software is very useful for the management of the project.

It program ensures that all activities and programs are well coordinated and handled. The productivity has increased tremendously with this program. This program makes it possible for all teams to work more effectively on their projects.

I really like the ability of this software to customize the functions and adapt them in the best way to the company, the assignment of the work of the employees is very easy as well as the management of the projects. It also makes data analysis a lot easier.

I do not like that the learning curve is long, even if you do not have previous experience with this type of tools, even though some users with some experience with the management of these software should have taken some time to make some configurations in the initial use of the tool.

Organizing the projects of the company was a very difficult task, with this great tool we have solved this problem, we are working more organized, this saves a lot of work time. This software allows the different work teams of the company to work more organized, avoiding large delays of the projects in progress. Communication functions are used daily.

The ability to create multiple tasks in a project folder, assign estimated hours to a project and then share the project with my manager. Keep tracking of users time spent on a particular task or project.

The ability to create reports of the data that has been inputted into multiple projects and tasks. Getting down to the checklist level, the ability to report on completion would be great. Mobile needs some work as it lacks a lot of features.

Keeping track of internal users hours being spent on projects. Not knowing how many hours or where someone is on a project, made it difficult to assign new projects without falling behind.Forecasting new projects and ability to estimate a projects time spent.

This tool covered everything we needed and more - time tracking, reporting, templates for projects, multiple views, collaboration, visibility into peers and directs work.

Really a great tool, I understand it was quite expensive (~$50/user/month?) - so that seems like an anomaly amongst other seemingly comparable solutions.

Great visibility into time spent on processes. Tracking, reporting to managers, etc. Simple process.

Ease of use, the interface is very clean and modern and the learning curve is very small.

Not really anything about the product but it is sometimes difficult to get proper estimates if your team is not consistently making updates.

Trying to keep projects on time and determine how much time we are sinking into projects.

- The flexibility of LP - Good summary

- The possibilities with 1 task && more colleagues - not possible to pack in different packages

Webshops / IT We make webshops. So the whole process we manage in LP

We are a big insurance company, which eventually means the projects are complex and teams are large. LiquidPlanner helps with scheduling of assignments and tasks with its intelligent scheduling technology which makes things simpler for employees. It also offers a wide range of integrations with apps we usually use to work and this honestly made life easier than ever.

Although it is one of the top-not, highly intellectual and advanced platforms to manage projects, they missed out on the billing and budgeting part which is like the backbone of a project. It is kind of a bummer but if you look around not many apps are offering the billing option and those who do are also lacking somewhere in between.

LiquidPlanner basically helps the team to manage the projects and related work smartly and effectively. It is equipped with some quite unique features that help companies in achieving the milestones in less time, more quality and less labor. When a platform is technically sound it saves lots of time and energy and it can be used to work better rather than just trying to learn the platform. With plenty of basic and advanced features that it has to offer you, this platform solves the issues like integrations, resource management and project management in quite reasonable pricing plans in comparison to what it offers. Shortly, I think it is worth the shot.

Automatic scheduling and ease of user interface

Not enough analytics, Dashboards needs updating to be fully functional

Determining what timelines to complete work on, benefits is less time spent on project planning and review

Analytical reports, Custom fields in task, ability to assign same task to multiple people, leave events

Though the features are great, I feel that it needs a facelift. The look and feel can be modernised.

It helps me in project planning and task assignments. I can track the tasks across projects, and also the time spent by team members.

LiquidPlanner is one of those platforms where management is easy, tasks are assigned and scheduled times, and team members know the tasks that are assigned to them as well as their progress on them. It comes with all the latest and most advanced features that help in making it even possible. This is not your ordinary platform, they are always making efforts to make it even greater and up-to-the standards of today’s needs.

LiquidPlanner has been with us for years now, the work and its management on this platform have made our lives easier but it comes at a cost that we don’t know! Seriously, we don’t know till the end of the year. The billing is done at the end of the year and that huge amount can make company owners frustrated. Also, the invoices or billing procedure is not satisfactory. This raises serious concerns and needs improvements for the betterment of everyone. When there are many team members on the platform, the management becomes a bit difficult and the platform becomes crowded. It results eventually in mismanagement and similar issues. To avoid this there should be a way to handle these things by taking some serious steps.

LiquidPlanner has been with us for years, we have been using it and since day one our project management and maintenance becomes so easy and manageable. Management of tasks and most importantly schedule allowed us to enhance the work we do and even make improvements in this regard. LiquidPlnner is one of those platforms that do what they say. It is easy, enriched with the latest features and new world technologies. You can manage everything with just a few clicks and there are endless possibilities that might interest you. The only issue we face is its billing methods and it needs improvement, apart from that it’s a very good investment.

I like the ease of use and navigation of the program, as well as the options for customizing the data and converting it into specialized reports. You can also give different permissions to multiple people. LiquidPlanner helps me and my colleagues complete all tasks on time. Now you can record the daily time for each project, so you can easily see how many hours you are spending on different jobs. This program is not ashamed of its name because it is very easy to change the goals of a project and the effect is almost instant. You can easily categorize the activities and projects of all departments in your company. I like the way I schedule tasks to move from one team to another until the project is complete.

The program requires some training to get the most out of it; for example, it's difficult to recognize a completed work if you don't know exactly how to search for it because it doesn't show comparable results in the search box, just exact matches, which may be quite aggravating. The database might be a little sluggish at times because it is a cloud-based solution. While this is not an issue in day-to-day operations, it was a challenge when I first set up our database structure.

LiquidPlanner assists our company in keeping track of hundreds of tasks from hundreds of clients, categorizing them as crucial deadlines or holding them till we need them again. We couldn't know which hours were spent on which jobs before LiquidPlanner since we had to manually enter project hours into our system. Some of the advantages of utilizing LiquidPlanner include time management, project management, job assignment, and project time monitoring. All of this has assisted us in keeping track of the work for each project independently, allowing us to identify what may be improved or amended in the future.

LiquidPlanner is very easy to use and generally easy to learn and avoid. It doesn't work without organizational hierarchy methods, so if your project makes sense, it's useful for telling you which structure to use for folders, subfolders, and so on. Creating projects and assigning tasks is very intuitive and easy to track and navigate. LiquidPlanner allows you to intuitively prioritize tasks through predictive algorithms. You can always organize your tasks by using this element because you have a list of tasks that you need to perform based on priority. It also includes a task management tool that keeps projects, schedules, and files in one place for all team members to access.

From a design/UI standpoint, there are undoubtedly some things that might be better. It may appear awkward when going into projects and attempting to utilize a more familiar Gantt chart visually, but this is not a deterrent; rather, it is something that will take time for you as a user to become used to. In terms of annoyance, LiquidPlanner would not enable me to add subtasks for any of my team members, which was a major source of frustration when it came to allocating duties.

The key advantage is the ability to classify and prioritize a full portfolio of work, and to utilize LiquidPlanner as the primary resource or point of consideration for all ongoing projects in our organization. Everyone knows where to receive the most up-to-date information on a project at any moment, which maintains all project team members speaking the same language in terms of our delivery goals. LiquidPlanner has been quite useful in my workflow since it provides an interactive platform where we could leave comments on tasks, which helped us stay on the same page during projects because we would be exchanging ideas, modifications to make, and updates.

It's easy and simple to get started. You can quickly get a project setup without resources being a member, also, like the roll-up feature within a task. Compared to other project management tools, it gives you a quick view of target date vs projected target date based on the resource availability.

It's an excellent planner to see the resource availability but lacks certain features like setting up recurring tasks and other features compared to other project management tools.

Using LiquidPlanner for resource planning and also to manage projects. LiquidPlanner provided the necessary views to see and plan resource availability against multiple project target dates.

Very easy to use and intuitive, all tools are available in the cloud, making it less hassle work for back-ups and losing data.

The interface can use some upgrades, also features to track human resources.

Manage the development of a new concept to bring to market, Liquidplanner custom reports are very beneficial.
