    Forecast
    Forecast is well suited for tracking schedules, especially if it is only being controlled by a single department. When it comes to using Forecast in a larger ecosystem with more "cooks in the kitchen" it would be helpful to have the software more easily integrated with other software.

    Apropriado para gestão de tempo, organização de demandas e planejamentos, tanto de forma micro quanto de alta gestão. Inapropriado para trabalhos colaborativos na área de geração de ticket. Falta um canal de comunicação mais fluído e com mais ferramentas de suporte. Provavelmente uma interface com o hangout ou chats do e-mail cadastrado facilitassem essa comunicação. Suitable for time management, organization of demands, and planning, both on a micro level and high management. Inappropriate for collaborative work in the area of ticket generation. There is a lack of a more fluid communication channel and more support tools. Probably an interface with Hangouts or email chats would facilitate this communication.

    Cons
    Forecast
    • Not as intuitive as its companion software, Harvest. This software takes longer to learn when on-boarding new staff. It is also difficult to view time notes without needing to physically open them up. This could be improved by expanding the "on hover" functionality. Personally, having spent as little time in workflow software is really important, as it gives me more time to code.
    • Because we use this software to plan schedules, items often fall through the cracks. I would like to see some more sophisticated syncing with not only Harvest but also with Asana.
    • Lack of integration with Asana. It would be nice to pull data from forecast and display it in Asana. This would be helpful for understanding how much time I have to spend on a project rather than bounce back and forth between web apps.

    I have not used any other scheduling software other than Forecast. The company selected Forecast because it is used in conjunction with Harvest. The pair of web apps can be used to pull detailed data. This is very important to our agency, and making data-driven decisions is exceptionally important to our agency mission.
