It provides clear top-level information about when a person is covered until, and interfaces with Harvest for project tracking and finances. It highlights visibility of leave, expected project burn, and helps track who is working on which project and when. I find it useful that it allows us to foresee expected burn and invoicing month on month, and it makes it easy to see when projects are expected to finish so that people can be lined up for other projects. > > **Cons**: Forecast only links to one Harvest instance, which doesn't work for organizations that have grown to include multiple business units each with their own Harvest instance. It would be great if it could handle multiple 'organizations' under one tool. Additionally, I wish it could automatically load public holidays, track leave from Harvest or another system, and show this in the Forecast calendar. Also, tracking future engagements or opportunities and future starter people could be improved, as well as resourcing based on a +30-day view instead of manually filling in days between dates. > > I use Forecast to track the resourcing of our employees and subcontractors across projects. It provides visibility of leave, expected burn on projects, and employee assignments. Forecast highlights who is already resourced, who has capacity, and allows us to foresee expected burn and invoicing monthly. It also shows project end dates and drop-off dates for each person so they can be lined up with other projects. Forecast is straightforward to set up and use and interfaces with Harvest for project tracking and finances. Resourcing in Forecast appears against the linked project in Harvest as a projected burn of the project's budget. However, it can only link one instance of Forecast to one instance of Harvest. ----- ### "Availability at a Glance" — 5.0/5 > **Brenda** | *7 March 2025* | Construction software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: The visual appearance showing availability of team members was concise and easy to navigate. The ability to see the most important information on one screen \& then to filter or drill-down from there makes it a great tool. > > **Cons**: Getting users to actually use it correctly is challenging in almost any company. > > Easy to train people - harder to always get them to cooperate - but the tool works great when utilized correctly. ----- ### "Forecast makes project planning easy" — 5.0/5 > **Heather** | *6 January 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 ----- ### "Forecast and make your life easier" — 5.0/5 > **Coey** | *17 October 2025* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Customer service above the bar. Top notch help when it comes to the support they provide for the business. > > **Cons**: I have no complaints with this program. The ai features are so helpful of make thing clean and sharpe > > Forecast with all the features it provides such as automation using AI, project and time management, such a helpful tool. ----- ### "Looks nice but didn’t meet our planning needs" — 4.0/5 > **Alexander** | *19 May 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. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.in/software/166339/forecast?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.in/software/166339/forecast) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | | sv | | ----- ## Structured Data
