Toggl Plan reviews

Robust, Free Plan that Solves Many Business Needs

Opmerkingen: I needed a solution to manage multiple projects with multiple clients. Being a free plan, it is the perfect fit!

Pluspunten:

The free plan is very robust. It solves all of my business needs.

Minpunten:

I haven't found one yet! I love everything about Toggl Track!

Moving Parts = Toggl Plan can help!

Opmerkingen: I would have to say the customer service is exceptional. As a non-profit, we are limited in the resources we can use and the Toggl Plan team has been super helpful in working with us to meet our needs. When I first started in my current position I was a bit lost on how to organize everything and keep my team on track. We have a lot of processes in place that are similar but I felt like we needed something a bit more simple. After a lot of research, I decided Toggl Plan (previously Teamweek) seemed like the best option. They strive to offer new features and it has been a great improvement for our teams productivity.

Pluspunten:

The software is super user-friendly and not confusing in the slightest which is always nice. As a small-ish team of around 5 it has been really helpful to look at our workspace and see everyone's priorities. Before moving to Toggl Plan I was constantly asking everyone what was on their plate for the day and then we talked about prioritization. With this software I am able to see what the research assistants have on their to-do lists without having to spend the extra time asking. The milestones are super helpful in recalling previous dates of launches and whatnot. I am a huge fan of Toggl Plan and so is the entire team. We also LOVE all of the colors :)

Minpunten:

I wouldn't say there is anything I dislike about the software but after using it for almost two years now there are some functionalities feedback that would be helpful to have. One thing that I know you are all working on developing is the reoccurring tasks....this would be incredibly helpful and save me the time of duplicating things over and over again. I also think it would be helpful to have a different type of calendar view (similar to an actual calendar you put on a wall) It would also be great if Toggl good work on developing more integration tools (with outlook for example) I also think it would be helpful to have a different type of calendar view not just

Good software, can be frustrating.

Pluspunten:

I love that you can see the whole team's tasks and change them on the go. It's easy to plan a project until the last deadline and see the process of the ongoing project.

Minpunten:

It can be slow sometimes and some of the functions could be improved. It sometimes freezes and sometimes when you scroll, the loading of the previous weeks takes quite a bit of time. Also I liked the old task view more, since it was easier to modify and it didn't take up the whole screen.

Great Software! The nicest interface!

Opmerkingen: I arrived to Toggl plan by serendipity looking for pomodoro Toggl tracker Feature.
I love to try new tools and Toggle tracker is almost a must have productivity tool to me.
Very comfortable to make plans and divided them in logic tasks, with a really nice look and and feel.
A small and lovely usability detail: You don't have to press edit or save to make changes on cards, totally comfortable feature when you are in planning meetings

Pluspunten:

The interface of Toggl Plan is the most friendly and well designed of all kanban tools. Lovely typo, colors and very exact descriptions on cards, made me have crush with the tool. The

Minpunten:

Sadly it has a weird integration with Toggl Tracker (even it works better with Trello). You can't see directly your Toggl Tracker clients and related them with a plan. Also when you go to your account, you can't back to the tool (had to click back button several times on the browser) With this small fixes, would be best tool.

Project Management for a creative industry

Opmerkingen: Great, we have only been using Teamweek for a few days and its already improving our work flow and it so easy to get everyone up and running with it.

Pluspunten:

Think you have a great lead on the creatives market like ours, architects, as we need something visual to plan out work but simple and easily flexible to however we may plan our work flow. A lot of the other sites I checked out are very well built but also very focused on particular business model. Creative businesses like ours tend to float about somewhere around it all and we don't so much need a business strategy planner but we do need something fluid to let our individual and quite unique projects to grow in an understandable way.

Minpunten:

There are a few areas of the software and mobile apps that need polishing and a few extra simple features that need adding but I am more than happy to act as a product tester.

A more streamlined, intuitive version of task management

Pluspunten:

This a a great alternative to the 'heavier' apps like Asana, which used heavily before. Switching between board and timeline view is a breeze, and I like all of the available features in the free version. It has everything I need for personal task management (and a team up to 5).

Minpunten:

Perhaps some integration with my existing email system (i.e. Gmail) might be helpful to integrate communications into my project plans.

Great functionality - good pricing

Opmerkingen: It has been very easy to setup our new project and start adding various activities and assigning timelines and people. I would recommend this to any team starting a project.

Pluspunten:

The visual representation of team availability in combination with the ability to attach various kinds of information to tasks. Also, the collaboration potential by being able to share information with third parties.

Minpunten:

I have not singled out a negative aspect of the software yet besides the fact that the gantt view becomes too crowded with too many tasks and many people in the team. Maybe it should have more view types.

Planning made easy

Pluspunten:

Toggl Plan has a really nice clean interface, making adding and managing projects simple. The Gantt charts are a great way to manage project timelines.

Minpunten:

Honestly only real downside to Toggl Plan is that it doesn't include Toggl Track functionality without purchasing a separate subscription.

Reliable Tool for Tracking Time for Clients and Projects

Opmerkingen: Toggl is critical to my client billing. The software allows me set up unique rates for clients and / or projects, and I'm able to pull detailed, accurate reports for clients who are billed by the hour. For my clients who pay me a retainer, I'm able to track my time on specific projects and tasks and ensure that I'm not working too little or too much against the retainer.

Pluspunten:

I've been using Toggl for years now to track my time on many projects for multiple clients, and what I like most about this app is the easy-to-use interface. The functionality is very intuitive and it's easy to set up clients, projects, track time and pull reports. There is a third layer of tracking that helps me identify time spent on specific tasks as part of projects.

Minpunten:

Very occasionally, I will think I've started the timer on a task and it doesn't start, so I'll have to manually enter my time, which is easy to do.

Great visualization of roadmap and timelines for projects and/or teams

Opmerkingen: Great product. Easy to use. Good price for all features. It seems it is supported by a good dynamic team, and the product keeps improving.

Pluspunten:

Toggl Plan (formerly known as Teamweek) is a very easy tool to understand and use. It offers a simple, yet clean an powerful visualization of tasks, projects and teams. The Toggl team is constantly updating the web app and including new features, which is great. Also, the possibility of seeing the timeline in different views (project, vs people, vs segments) and with different zooms in time (week, month, 3 months, annual) is also very good.

Minpunten:

In general me and my colleagues are very happy with Toggl plan and we do not see any major disadvantages. We would like that there are more integrations to calendars available. Also maybe a direct integration to Jira and Confluence from Attlasian.

Abel's Review

Pluspunten:

It is easy to work with and plan the animation film production for my students

Minpunten:

Printing should be MUCH better. It makes all sense to print the plan in a full row. My students usually tries to get to toggle platform, which is another thing. Toggle Plan is not a nice name.

Toggle Plan - Easy and Simple - Serves the purpose

Opmerkingen: This product is the most simple and easy to use tool for planning my projects. I have used and tested a lot of different tools but TogglePan works the best.

Pluspunten:

The ease to add tasks and sharing feedback via comments works great. I really like the icebox feature to store everything that pops up in my mind and which i can always go back to, to see what my brainwaves have been.

Minpunten:

I would like the DONE tasks to be out greyed together with the done icon. The IN PROGRESS icon i do not like and i think that might be a more splashing colour. The mobile app is still in the old TEAMWEEK version (which i have used for 3 years already), this should be transfered to Toggle Plan. I do not like the horizontal week overview in the mobile app...i rather would like to see that in portrait.

The daily schedule

Opmerkingen: I only use Toggl currently for the day to day operations. I load PDF's and text content.

Pluspunten:

This application is web-based and very easy to set up and manage. It allows management to easily add new users and schedule resources very quickly. Editing is super simply by clicking and dragging. If there is an issue and you contact the support staff they normally reply within 60 minutes. They are very helpful and are always looking for innovative ways to make the product better. I give them an A Plus!!

Minpunten:

The only thing that I feel is a problem is when add several team members to one project and if you delete the placeholder they all are deleted. It would be nice it would not delete everyone that is on the project.

Enjoy using Toggl Plan but more features would be useful

Pluspunten:

Very straight forward, easy to use system. Love the integration with other apps and makes everything very easy to manage as a team. Fairly priced compared to other competitors out there (but also feels like you get what you pay for).

Minpunten:

It does feel like there are some features missing to make this a solid project management tool. Also, too much room for human error (we have accidentally had people delete entire boards) so it would be useful to have a version history to go back in case of such things.

Toggl Saved Us!

Opmerkingen: A colleague left the team and we had to share her tasks between us for a few months, while all of us working from home. Toggl came to our rescue, and I don't think we could have managed without it. It would have been a disaster. I can't imagine work without Toggle anymore.

Pluspunten:

It saves so much time that we'd usually waste on writing, searching and archiving emails. It is great how each task has it's place, and all correspondence/files/participants are in this same place.

Minpunten:

I'm trying really hard but I really can't think of anything that needs improvement, at least for our team's needs.

Easy to use time tracking

Pluspunten:

Toggl has a free version for a limited number of users, so a great option for a small business that's trying out time tracking software

Minpunten:

The functionality is not as great as other paid alternatives (Harvest). I'd like the ability to switch between users on the main screen so I can see real time what my employees are running their timers for.

Time Management at its best

Opmerkingen: This is amazing and it recommended to use for both personal and business it will indeed keep you on track and help you better manage your time.

Pluspunten:

This software allows you to track time spent on various projects, Its used widely in the virtual world to keep time spent on jobs for customers. It does indeed boosts productivity and helps you manage your time effectively throughout the day whether for individuals or times. It has advanced reporting and does offer integrations with several other software. And did I say it does have a free version too? yes, it does.

Minpunten:

It is too useful and amazing to find faults, so far I have no complaints

Toggl helps us planning resources better

Opmerkingen: The ease of use and the extra insight you get with toggle about our planning is really nice.

Pluspunten:

We use toggl to help us plan resources in a sprint (our teammembers -- who will pick up which story and when) With toggl we can better plan who will do what in a sprint so that we can be more transparant with our planning -- will we make the sprint or not? -- on a daily basis.

Minpunten:

Our sprint lasts 2 weeks, but the view does not have that option, it is 1 week or a month.

My Team

Opmerkingen: Many people going in many different directions, doing many different things. This was the easiest way to stay on top of who is doing what/where.

Pluspunten:

How easy it is to quickly review where each team member is, with a high level view of what they are working on.

Minpunten:

There are times when I will click, my view will change form seeing the team to seeing a single individual and I've not figured out how to easily get back to seeing the team view.

For everyone

Opmerkingen: Good. We use it a lot.

Pluspunten:

After 2 years of searching not affortible software we found Toggle plan, finally some affortable and easy to use software.

Minpunten:

We use this software on a big screen, that needs to be updated every once in a while. Meaning i have to refresh te page every time. We would like to see a function for big screen mode's. That is something we never found in software. We would love to see that you can work on your pc and it updates the big screen.

Toggl for Small Projects

Opmerkingen: Toggl works great for us right now with the size of our business and the complexity of our projects. It is definitely good for small businesses with smaller projects.

Pluspunten:

Toggl is a very easy tool to use and the UI feels pretty modern which I like. You also get a pretty good value for you money.

Minpunten:

It does lack some features that I feel could make it way better. The main pain point we have is on the reporting side. It would be great if we could easily run a detailed report for all the time entries on a project. You can do this, however, you have to manually select the dates and in order to do that you have to know exactly when the project started and ended. It would be better if you could simply just select all time or something like that.

Great Time Management Software

Pluspunten:

It's super easy to use and can be mastered within a couple hours. Great for tracking a teams project workload and task completion.

Minpunten:

The only downside to it being so simple to use, navigate and master is the fact that it seriously limits what all your allowed to do on it. To improve this, it needs alot more functionality.

Neat software to be more productive

Pluspunten:

1. very clean and user-friendly interface 2. free for personal users to organize different projects 3. very easy to pick up (set plans/tasks, switch status, etc) 4. useful tips sent by customer support team 5. can send communication to slack

Minpunten:

1.can't bring your plans with you (no app that can syn with the calendar, neither an optimized webpage to check to-dos on cellphone) 2. no good options to create an operation or a repeative activity 3. not easy to prioritize tasks by dragging them up and down in the timeline.

Best Plan Ever

Opmerkingen: Planning is much simpler with Toggl Plan. It integrates well two important views of the tasks' organization. It is easy to share a view mode and keep a record of tasks completeness. I may be wrong but it looks like the bar that indicates late delivery on Gantt was replaced by an icon status, which is the link with the columns in Kanban indeed. This has taught me a better planning practice, however, I missed a way to measure my performance because I can't see my working pace.

Pluspunten:

It can easily switch between Kanban (board view) and Gantt (timeline view), allowing the understanding of different nuances of the project planning. Also, the scroll works very well on the timeline view, since we only need to hold "shift" while scrolling to go forward and backward throughout the dates. The drag feature with multiple tasks is awesome too.

Minpunten:

Sometimes the page loading time takes so long. Sometimes the tasks duplicate while dragging the activities on bulk edit mode. And there isn't a horizontal scrollbar, and I don't think intuitive to hold "shift" to scroll for both sides. I took a while to find it out. At last, milestones could be integrated to external calendars.

Get your time back

Opmerkingen: I absolutely love it!

Pluspunten:

This changed my process forever. I'm so much more efficient.

Minpunten:

Sometimes I realize I'm wasting time on things I like doing.
