## Reviews

### "Great tool for resource planning" — 5.0/5

> **Marina** | *13 February 2022* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The product is very easy to use, intuitive, and fast. We love the ability to zoom in and out and have different views of our timeline.
> 
> **Cons**: What I (currently) miss most is the ability to quickly update the schedule. For example, to select multiple "tasks" for one employee and move them 1 or more days forward, in other words, to shift or postpone someone's entire schedule. We change schedules quite frequently so it would be easier for us to have this enabled. But I've heard that this would be possible down the road.
> 
> Overall, RG was a game-changer for us. Since we have implemented it, we got a better overview of our projects and became able to plan ahead and more long-term.

### "Happy Project Manager" — 5.0/5

> **Megan** | *12 August 2024* | Internet | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy to use, highly visual, quick to update.
> 
> **Cons**: The utilization report doesn't seem to reflect available billable hours when taking PTO/OOO out of the equation. This results in our utilization typically looking lower than it is in reality.
> 
> The customer service has been great and adopting the tool among our team has been very smooth and easy\!

### "Great product but no development" — 3.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *30 November 2015* | Information Technology & Services
> 
> Whilst it Guru is a promising, flexible and easy to use product it really is just bare bones at the moment and they have failed to deliver any additional functionality since launch despite increasing pricing.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;The forums are filled with requests and suggestions for highly useful add-ons and improvements that always receive the same answer "It's on the road map but we are working on other aspects of development". However, there have been no new releases and even the highly anticipated Vacation and Leave function slated for October 2015 has not actually been delivered. In fact the only thing that has changed is a change in pricing model that has upped the cost of the product.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;So, to conclude, even though Resource Guru has great potential the increased cost combined with a complete lack of development and capacity for integration make it a waste of time and money. Sad really because conceptually it is a fantastic product.

### "An option for time, cost, manhour management for small-medium scope" — 4.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *20 August 2021* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Intuitively easy to use, good usage of colors to present a quick glance of resource versus objectives deliverables
> 
> **Cons**: Integration with existing calendars, tools may not be smooth and sometimes not synced.
> 
> Generally no issue if the scope is small to medium. larger scope requiring links to many other apps may take time to sync.

-----

### "Some thoughts" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *18 February 2024* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Relatively easy to use
> 
> **Cons**: Can't do everything I want to, or if it can I can't find it.
> 
> ok
