By using Meisterplan we could prioritize the most valuable projects and focus our resources on that. By doing that Meisterplan saved us lots of time. ----- ### "Powerful PPM tool" — 4.0/5 > **Janick** | *25 November 2022* | Oil & Energy | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Capacity and resource planning capability is powerfulPortfolio planning capability is great > > **Cons**: We would like to distinguish between aprroved and non-approved (pending or rejected) resource requests > > It is easy to use and a powerful portfolio and resource solution ----- ### "Great Product for Project Management" — 4.0/5 > **Eddie** | *13 October 2017* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: A great way to follow total project and also each tasks. Easy to follow up with teammates and could help you to get success on the project. > > **Cons**: Some uses, like my coworker, had little hard time to follow the project. But it's his personal issue, not really about product. > > Recommend\!\! ----- ### "Easy to use resource planning application" — 5.0/5 > **Benjamin** | *30 October 2015* > > Until now we used Excel for resource planning. With Meisterplan it was so easy to import our existing excel planning that we could start with the solution in less than a day. In this version we still need Excel. But we know that Meisterplan will solve this dependency in the next version. With excel we could not easily assign projects and resources and business goals. Meisterplan was the only solution that could help. ----- ### "Meisterplan is an eye opener for resource bottlenecks" — 5.0/5 > **Heiner** | *3 November 2015* > > After a very short on boarding process we imported our own data and only a few moment laters we have seen where we have resource bottlenecks and overloads. That was impressive. We would like to have some more option for the daily planning of resources. We ever wonder where we lost time in our projects. Meisterplan visualize and analyze the resource allocations very easy. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/25323/meisterplan?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/25323/meisterplan) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
