Runn

Avantages

Runn is great at providing a projection of what the billings of a professional services organisation will be in months to come. It's an essential part of running an effective business which isn't as commonplace as it should be!

Inconvénients

With a lot of pre-existing tools (time-keeping, invoicing, business intelligence), it took a bit of time to get everything integrated nicely. While they do have out-of-the-box integrations that might suit your needs well, we found our needs too specific and needed to make custom integrations.

That said, their APIs have meant that we could do this integration reasonably easily.

Avantages

This tool was so simple to implement, and it's easy to use to track what projects our resources are working on now and in the future. It gives us a good view of our cross-project metrics. I can't say enough about how customer support is very responsive to questions, issues, and feature requests. While the tool may not have every feature I want, it is a pleasure to work with this company.

Inconvénients

While I would like better reporting, they make it easy to export data and when I have a unique reporting need I can move the data to a spreadsheet. Therefore, the biggest area of improvement I see for Runn would be more security profiles. We could benefit from more flexibility than what they provide.

Pourquoi passer à Runn

Avantages

It's ability to provide simple high level views to a project's timeline and phases, as well as more complex ones highlight individual roles and/or capacities.

Inconvénients

Having a slightly more zoomed out view or the ability to track forward and back at an increased rate.

Avantages

What I liked most about Runn is the easy, clear, and simple UI. It makes managing our team's workload and project timelines really straightforward. I can quickly see who’s doing what and when, which helps with planning. Plus, the resource forecasting and project tracking features are super helpful for staying on top of everything without feeling overwhelmed.

Inconvénients

Custom fields in reporting will be helpful!

Avantages

Clean interfaces and easy-to-use software, that's what you need when you are dealing with the complexities of project and resource management. Runn delivers exactly that and keeps improving every week.

Team leads now have up-to-date visibility on every front, including project financials, team utilization and beyond, without spending the entire day trying to source the updated data. it's ready for them.

Inconvénients

Some Reports and permission levels are missing or are limited and we've had to figure out workarounds. This is something the team is working on and I am confident they'll be resolving it pretty soon.

Pourquoi passer à Runn

Avantages

Runn was very easy to set up for our company. I can easily create schedules for our current and upcoming projects. The reporting features are great. I love how easily it shows the profitability per project and scheduled vs worked hours. We have used other software in the past and they had more features than our company needed and were complicated to use. Runn does exactly what we need it to do at a good price point.

Inconvénients

This isn't really a con because they are working on it but there currently isn't time tracking software and we have to integrate with Clockify. I'm looking forward to Runn having their own time tracking software so we don't have to use to apps.

Avantages

the hours management for allocations and the API to other programs which we are using to get accurate reporting.

Inconvénients

I would like some more features in the space of HR Management of people and their skills to be able to better use the time allocation part in conjunction with RFI/RFP answering.

Avantages

Easier to see where people and projects are at a glance, including budgets.

Inconvénients

Sometimes I wish there were more reporting options.

Avantages

My team is very happy about resource management, tracking projects, utilization, financial metrics and permissions features. Since we had invited very different groups of people (finance, PMs, delivery, sales, etc), everyone has set of features they like, and everything is working very smoothly.

Inconvénients

We have pretty complex business intelligence tool to gather finance and project metrics, and we're using API sometimes. I would say that we're missing API features, but having public roadmap of planned features would be a plus.

Avantages

we are using runn on a day-to-day basis to manage our consulting projects and where our employees are located. We use all features related to project management and reporting.

Inconvénients

Things that we would like to see in the tool is a better way to manage access per user role, it would be useful for us.

Avantages

Global view of people and projects. Ease of bringing people in and spotting when people will be free is essential. Project and functional reporting is straight forward and insightful.

Inconvénients

All features that I thought were missing have since been added. A very active development team.

Avantages

It addressed literally every set of asks we had in the domain of Resource Management (Capacity, Forecasting, Utilization) and Project Metrics (Role/Person Assignment, Burndown, and profitability). It had the added benefit of being able to retire a dedicated time tracking tool as well.

Inconvénients

If there were one thing, just one thing I could change, it would be: Nothing.
Joking aside, I genuinely don't have anything I dislike about this tool. In fact, the more we use it, the more cool features we discover.

Avantages

It's easy to manage resources, and time management for different projects which is useful for large organizations managing hundreds of projects at the same time.

Inconvénients

Messes up the names which has accents in them. A more effective real-time connection with Workday (our people management tool) would be helpful in ensuring names are consistent across these two different tools.

Avantages

the features are user friendly but it could do with a slight update of colour

Inconvénients

need to be colour friendly for tentativeness like maybe put in shading

Avantages

- Easy to use
- Simple entities, that fits all my neads
- Great API, so that I can populate all my data with ease from another source

Inconvénients

1. I'd like to have the possibility to add part-time vacation
2. I'd like to have vacation resolution strategies available through API
3. I'd like to filter only projects that have placeholder

Avantages

Runn is very easy to navigate and very useful for efficient planning, especially if you are managing multiple projects.

Inconvénients

Nothing I can think of, the product is user-friendly to be honest

Avantages

I can teach someone to use it in 5 minutes. It is graphically intuitive and simple to display utilization. I like the tentative toggle.

Inconvénients

It's a new platform. The team are responsive to new features. We would like a few more categories as discussed for billing/non-billing and the team have this in their roadmap.

Avantages

Runn is really easy to set up, add projects, place holders and teams to giving us a clear picture of our capacity and timelines.

Inconvénients

It would be great to integrate with our team holiday calendar

Avantages

*Incredibly simple and intuitive UI
*Ability to adjust resources in real time and see the impact is incredibly helpful
*Built in filters, graphs and reports
*Ability to import/export data to support integrations
*Incredibly responsive support team and constant new features/improvements

Inconvénients

*Really need an undo button
*Would be incredibly helpful to include version control

Avantages

Runn provides the ability to plan and manage your workloads, but it also helps track the project's financials in a very easy and intuitive manner.
Special thanks to a customer success team for a quick response and flexibility!

Inconvénients

More like a nice to have feature - to have the ability to see project tasks from tools like Asana and be able to plan them across resources in a calendar view.

Avantages

this app is so helpful for my small project. we can use it easily . Time saving.

Inconvénients

Runn is fairly new, so there are definitely some features we're waiting on.

Avantages

Runnio is not complicated and friendly to new user, you can easily learn how to use it. It helps a lot when we're doing resource planning , we can know who is overutilized and do needful

Inconvénients

I'll recommend to add more feature like bulk updating resources leave time and auto set the public holidays. and it will be great if we can filter by location and employee ID
