Hub Planner makes scheduling work and updating schedules very simple, and the user interface is very intuitive. Their customer service is top-notch, as well. The support team is always responsive and helpful, and if there is not a straightforward solution for my unique problem, they send a video tutorial of a possible solution that may work.

Some of the add-on features, such as capacity finder and dependencies, seem like they should be included in service plans without the additional costs. Some of the expenses for these add-ons are quite high and quickly make the software a less affordable option for small to mid size organizations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Easy to plan projects and track through lifecycle. Reporting structure helps with resource planning and costs for projects. Reporting also assist with weekly and monthly figures reporting into the Finance department Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Hard to view on mobile device (phone) could do with an APP :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The Hub planner has a below features which i like:
User-Friendly Interface: The clean and intuitive drag-and-drop scheduler makes it easy to allocate resources, adjust timelines, and visualize workloads at a glance.
Resource Management: It offers detailed resource allocation features, including capacity planning and real-time utilization tracking, helping teams avoid overbooking or underutilization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Mobile Functionality: The mobile experience could be improved; some users find it less intuitive compared to the desktop version, which may hinder on-the-go updates.
Speed Issues: Occasionally, users report lagging or slower performance when working with large datasets or managing a significant number of projects and resources. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Hub Planner features an intuitive and user-friendly interface, making it easy to configure and integrate with our team. We rarely needed support during the onboarding process or afterward, but when we did, the Hub Planner team was quick to respond and resolve any issues. They are also very receptive to feature upgrade suggestions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There are few downsides to Hub Planner. However, a clearer "current day" identifier would be beneficial. An "undo" button has been a frequent topic of discussion, and we are still anticipating its implementation. Additionally, the ability to customise and download project and resource dashboards would be a valuable enhancement. Finally, a more user friendly mobile web interface or app for resources would be of significant benefit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like the ease of filling my weekly timesheet. Logging hours had always been a pain for us contractors but hubplanner made pain go away. Love the UI , no hussle. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I hope i could see my past logged hours in much easier way , say like in a side panel or a weekly dropdown. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The ease of use and the simplicity of understanding our workload. There are many team management programs out there, but most are overcomplicated and not simple enough to fit the purpouse. With Hubplanner you can easily see your workload split into hourly slots, and easily find any information needed to start the job.
Customer service and the tech team are great as well, every problem we encountered got solved in the matter of hours/days. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Would be great to have teams integration, so people can see your workload (or the fact that you are busy) whilst booking you into meetings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like how easily you can set up the Scheduler and how it makes it clear the amount of hours you are expecting to spend on each project. It is also quite easy to use and intuitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
One thing I do wish hubplanner did implement is to allow you to move filled out timesheets to a different week. Several times I've accidentally filled out the wrong week and there is no easy way to just carry it over. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Pros:
- Super user-friendly and was not difficult to integrate into the workflow
- Amazing customer support staff
- Affordable compared to other platforms Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Cons - But all minor things!
- Wish the mobile platform gave admin users more visibility about the projects than just the team members.
- Does not integrate with our financial platform, but not the end of the world.
- Wish you could input/type out a date vs clicking the month until you get to the date when entering milestones/phases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like being able to see all of the resources available or the allocations for resources for any given week. It's really helpful to see what our agency is working on at any given time. It has the flexibility to denote time allocations in any given week and assign different colors to different types of tasks. I am looking at it daily so I can see how to support my team. We've tried to replace the tool, but haven't been able to replicate its capabilities. It's relatively easy to pick up and use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is a Resource view and a Projects view. I wish I could dive into a project on a resource's line to then backwards view all of the resources also assigned to that project. That's not a possibility for me. It's tedious to be in meetings to toggle back and forth many clicks and scrolls to be able to go between the individual resource and the project and all of the resources on a project. It slows me down. I'd also like to be able to click into a project to drill into details - currently, we're not able to write details into entries, I'd like to be able to anticipate where we're going for travel projects. Lastly, not everyone has the same capabilities without admin privileges - I'd like to be able to filter for available resources in any given period; instead, I find myself scrolling up and down our board to see who is available in a manual capacity.
