Forecast vs. Teamleader

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.

It is great for making proposals, sending invoices and for keeping time. It is also a great CRM tool. I love the business card scanner in the app.

• 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.

• Synching contacts between iPhone and Teamleader could be easier.
• Integration with Aweber would be great.

Besides having some tools to improve, it's a simple yet useful tool to organize data in order to improve patients quality and internal development.

Very effective team. If ANYTHING occurs their assistance is pretty much immediate. They take longer by email but it works everytime.

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.

Act-On I used for a client. It is more a marketing automation tool than a CRM solution and it is also more suited for bigger organizations.

• Positive: invoices are easy to pay thanks to the direct link, invoices are mostly paid timely
• Positive: it is easy to monitor deals and proposals. When followed up timely, more opportunities become deals.
