Uptempo offers a tailored solution for organizations with straightforward finance management requirements, particularly catering to the needs of small to medium-sized businesses. Its emphasis on easy reporting, budget hierarchy customization, and streamlined invoicing processes align with the efficiency and cost-effectiveness that smaller enterprises often seek in their financial management tools.

I have been using Uptempo for 4 years and I have noticed in this time that it is software that is always improving its features and adding new functions. I can say that it is phenomenal for correctly managing the budget of marketing campaigns without compromising the established expenses. The company also appreciates the increase in sales thanks to Uptempo and with these functions we improve the contents of our marketing campaigns.

It helps us a lot in marketing by providing better understanding of current situations and markets.

Uptempo is versatile and reliable for achieving remarkable results to financial and marketing processes.

Using this software, we were able to create an effective marketing plan strategy and it help us to improve overall marketing performance.

We implemented this solution to have better results in sales as it provides the ecosystem in terms of products we sale and market, and it helps us to implement better marketing management, better control and analyze the return on investment of the product and the campaign process of the product could be led effectively as well.

We are very satisfied with defining our requirements and realizing them with Uptempo. That is an indicator set at which Uptempo is better than their competitors at most. We enjoy the comfort and easy-to-learn usage at the entry-level and intermediate competence ranges of our employees. Uptempo is great at the support of the full stack and the interoperability of the components of the suit. We enjoy the direction the product is developing very much. This is inspiring our development processes from many perspectives. There is the advantage that we already used Brandmaker before. We did make experiences with Hive9 that were very satisfying. That led to our decision together with the support of our employees. We are a big company so we profit most from the scale at which Uptempo is. As a marketing resource management software, we value the worth of the suit very highly. This is accompanied by great experience and values as a digital asset management suite integrated into resource management. Altogether the integration was a great leap ahead making us curious about the next development steps. So we profit from the powerful set of analytic tools. We feel geared up with the Uptempo toolage and encourage the use.

If you are a company that has a defined invoicing/PO process in place then you're large enough for the tool. In addition, you should have an enterprise-level CRM and ERP system in place.

If you are a large marketing organization (Enterprise level), this tool is perfect. As long as you can get buy in for the proper integrations, it will make tracking program success much easier, allowing for real-time reporting on the fly.

If you are a smaller, more scrappy marketing organization, it can feel cumbersome at first, but it may also help your teams adopt best-practice project structures. To truly gain the benefits of the system, you must be running targeted lead generation campaigns with tangible goals and outcomes. Otherwise, you likely won't get the value from the tool.

Allocadia is well suited to help teams within a larger department track and manage their budgets, while giving finance and other managers visibility into how budgets are being spent and allocated. It is also easy to customize reports and export them to present to decision makers if needed. At this point in time other business units in my company have not adopted Allocadia.

Anyone who is planning media and needs all of their reporting in one place, this is the software to do that. Out of every software we looked at, this made the most since planning wise. But it also incorporated just about everything you need to do every part of buying down to the actuals and leads.

I liked that we can create different budget folders for our subsidiaries.

Great for companies that have been using spreadsheets in the past or had used another budgeting system that was very basic and want to be able to do a more detailed analysis of their data.

If you're looking to improve your company's ability to track marketing ROI, or begin tracking marketing ROI, then look no further. If your organization is not ready to begin tracking ROMI, Allocadia still provides an excellent unified budgeting and planning platform; their "Customer Success Team" will continually work with your organization to help you improve.

You need to have an understanding of the pain points in your budget, so Allocadia can be tailored to fix them.

In my opinion, no software exists that is perfect for 100% of organizations. However, Allocadia is industry neutral and works for 2 marketers or 2000 marketers...it's very scalable in terms of functionality and infrastructure.

Although the Analytics part is already available it could be improved. So for now Allocadia is very recommended if you are looking for a data maintenance software but less appropriate as a analysis tool. Ask yourself what is it you are looking for (analysis or controlling) and for which purposes (management level or specialists). The costs are very resonable and an absolute Plus!

It is certainly well-suited to an organization with several dozen (or more) marketing campaigns, spread across several channels such as PPC, display marketing and social media. We found it best to work with a single account manager at Allocadia, since there was little information lost and requests could be handled quickly and efficiently.

We have found great success in using the tool for our approval process. Coding everything in a one-off process was cumbersome and invoices would often not get paid on time. Now, we have streamlined everything on a weekly basis.
