Sobre Forecast
Forecast organiza el cronograma de tu equipo en planes visuales que te permiten esquematizar tus
próximos proyectos y tomar decisiones de reaprovisionamiento más inteligentes. Los planes visuales codificados por colores de Forecast facilitan ver cuánto tiempo está previsto que tomará un proyecto, quién trabaja en qué y quién tiene asignaciones excesivas.
Forecast te facilita el asignar personas a proyectos y luego ver los planes por proyecto o por personas. Las barras rojas indican si un empleado tiene asignaciones excesivas, de modo que puedas modificar los proyectos y las fechas límite antes de que el empleado se agote. También es fácil ver si alguien tiene disponibilidad para tomar un nuevo proyecto y exactamente cuánto tiempo pueden dedicarle. Comparte tus planes con todo el equipo para que todos sepan en qué deberían trabajar y cuándo.
Integra Forecast con su aplicación asociada Harvest para obtener información sobre el progreso del proyecto y mejorar tus procesos de estimación y programación. La integración lleva las horas que has programado en Forecast hacia Harvest, por lo que puedes ver exactamente si un proyecto superará el presupuesto. Además, puedes comparar el tiempo que programaste para alguien en Forecast con el tiempo que realmente registró en Harvest, lo que te permite identificar posibles áreas problemáticas.

Bird's Eye View for Project Planning

Forecast is a great little tool for project managers and directors, allowing them to organise and get an overview of upcoming tasks and projects for different teams as well as individual employees.
Puntos a favor
Forecast was probably the best innovation from Harvest in recent years. Even though the parent tool is in dire need of a refresh, Forecast gives managers a bird's eye view of their upcoming projects, allowing them to individually assign tasks and distribute the workload.
Puntos en contra
Despite the fact that it is a great forecasting tool, project visualisation can get a bit overwhelming on larger organisations with bigger teams.

If You Liked Harvest, You'll Love Forecase
Revisado el 22/9/2023
Puntos a favor
Super easy to use, the calendar feature is very straightforward and visually clear. Harvest had some bugs where their "scheduling assistant" feature often did not work, but I find that Forecast specializes in that feature. Keeping track of time and finding time to work with coworkers are extremely simple with Forecast.
Puntos en contra
If you are switching from Harvest, you do need to individually carryover all features one by one, which may be tedious. If you do not have a specific project you are working on but are working on internal projects or are helping a coworker with their project, it may be hard to track time because you need a preset "task" in order to track time. I'd recommended having a general "internal" task to track time for work that does not relate to an existing project.

A good (almost brilliant) project management SaaS tool

We use Asana and Forecast to manage time allocation to tasks, and use Forecast to plan out our resource allocation.
Harvest Forecast seem to work well for us when planning work schedules over the next few weeks, but we do not seem to successfully use this for longer term project management. We use Harvest Forecast daily - it has become mission critical to the successful running of our business.
However we resort to spreadsheets (and Asana) to manage longer term forecasts, and for this have marked it down a star. I suspect that this is not the fault of the software per se, but our work flow process from Asana making this just too clumsy.
Still, Harvest Forecast a good, stable, well written piece of software. It is reasonably priced and one of the best methods to properly forecast project-based work.
Puntos a favor
Forecast is easy to use and does the job as a forecast management tool for us. The ease of use should not be underestimated - we have trialed many other project management tools and they were just too hard to set up.
Moreover the integration to our Harvest itself (a time tracker) makes this much more powerful than a classic project management tool.
We use it to manage our software development processes, which has a mix of short 1-2 days tasks and longer multi-month projects.
Forecast and has some neat features: particularly like the quick way of setting up milestones.
Forecast now also allows time planning around weekends so you can accommodate over time and will work in countries where the weekend is not Saturday and Sunday.
Puntos en contra
The integration method to Harvest Forecast is lumpy. You have to manually select which products in Forecast you import, and it is not perfectly linked, so change a name in, say, Asana and you have to manually fill this in.
It is hard to include public holidays.

Intuitive Time Planning Software That Adapts to Any Team Size

The software works like a dream if your organization has the depth of project management/trafficking skill to understand how to balance its functions with the needs of the people captured by the system. This is NOT a great software for agile environments in my opinion.
Puntos a favor
Forecast (and its partner Harvest) make for a powerful program that can assist in planning any work that requires team effort. The process is easy, the interface readily understandable. Setup is very simple and new projects are easily managed in Forecast. You can be as detailed as you'd like, or very high-level. Perfect for traffic management, not so great for creativity.
Puntos en contra
This isn't a software for agile environments, and it's VERY easy for project managers to get caught in the objective of making red into green (a person is over budgeted time allotments versus a person has time to do the work) rather than thinking about what they're actually splitting or assigning. This can be a big problem in creative environments where team members may need large chunks of time for thinking, creating, or researching.

Useful tool for planning team members' time but not the most intuitive

Overall, Forecast is a time saver for managing teams, and the feedback from the team members is that it helps co-ordinate their week ahead and know what they need to be working on. If they can work on improving the design and layout, it could be the perfect team management system.
Puntos a favor
Forecast's direct integration with Harvest (time tracking) makes it a simple and easy process to assign tasks to a team member in Forecast and have it automatically appear in Harvest for them to log time against, helping streamline the process and reducing the number of steps.
Puntos en contra
While the interface for Forecast is fairly easy to use, it isn't all that intuitive. It can be difficult to see what a team member is working on, and if there's a few people on the team, there is a lot of faffing around to open up each team member's list and see what they're assigned to.
