"Digital Pull Planning"

4/5

What do you like best about Touchplan?

Ease of use, entering data is simple. Ease in adding tasks. Easy to login, a nice step for those in the past were paper based pull planners or slat plan users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Touchplan?

It's is not as robust as Samors V planner regarding critical path analysis. Security needs to review for 2fa and encryption at rest. Subscription cost per mo were a bit pricey. But prices dropped to compete with other platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Touchplan:

Get a trial use, and test it and compare with hoylu pull planning Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Touchplan solving and how is that benefiting you?

Last Planner where in the trailer you run out if wall space to do scheduling the old, paper based way. Easy to adjust and respond to job change requests and evaluate impacts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hi John,

Thanks so much for your review!

With 50,000 users and $56 billion in construction value, security is a top priority for us. We review data security with every team and know this is an extremely important part of the implementation process. All data is encrypted, so we can assure customers that their project information is safe when using Touchplan.

Hope this helps, and thank you again!

"Touchplan"

4/5

What do you like best about Touchplan?

That it is realtime updating of our pull plan. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Touchplan?

There is a loss of participation because we are not physically putting stickies on the board. It is easier to see the big picture on a physical board. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Lindsey Stevens of Touchplan

Hey Jason! Love to hear that you’re getting value out of our pull planning tool and that you’re seeing more accountability from your team!

We’ve worked with other project leaders who were also struggling to shift their trades from stickies to tech. Shoot us an e-mail at support@touchplan.io so our CS team can set up a time with you to help with that transition. Want to make sure you see that big picture and get better participation in Touchplan!

"Touchplan is a game changer!"

5/5

What do you like best about Touchplan?

Functionality. Open sandbox for scheduling allows for endless uses depending on the construction teams needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Touchplan?

It can be easy to get a plan out of sync because it is so "open sandbox" style. It is something that just comes with the territory and requires diligent oversight, which in itself is a good thing, just time-consuming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Make The Most of Your Day"

5/5

What do you like best about Touchplan?

Touchplan is great for getting schedule buy-in from all parties. Last planners are able to keep up with changes and react quickly to stay on track. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Touchplan?

I spend a lot of time making sure all parties are taking the time to update their activities, it would help to have a notification option that is sent out. Separately, after planning a sequence to the right of the active line and moving to the left of the active line the sequence generally gets jumbled up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Touchplan:

The ease of use is a big contributing factor for choosing Touchplan, very intuitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Touchplan solving and how is that benefiting you?

Tracking activities and sequences to completion leads to meeting critical project milestones. Touchplan helps minimize communication issues related to the schedule. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great Way To Track Daily Progress On The Jobsite"

5/5

What do you like best about Touchplan?

The different color tags make it easy to zoom out and see the overall plan and where a trade partner will have gaps within the schedule for their manpower to work productively. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Touchplan?

The iPad Touchplan GO app seems to be frozen whenever I try to use it. Logging onto the website from my iPad works somewhat. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Touchplan:

From the very start, you need to get the trades involved with the Touchplan process and get their buyoff. If trades don't use the program correctly and items aren't appropriately scheduled, the whole process gets affected when handoff dates are not achieved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Touchplan solving and how is that benefiting you?

Touchplan is excellent at closing up the miscommunications gaps between trade partners that are not used to planning out work in advance. By having the trade partners sit down and create tags for their scope of work, they are in charge of providing input as to how they see the flow of work developing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Touchplan Overall Review"

5/5

What do you like best about Touchplan?

I enjoy how interactive Touchplan is. Having 20+ people logged in at once all able to add/delete tags is a great feature. Touchplan's ability to seamlessly build a construction sequence is fantastic. Reviewing my schedule with my groups is straightforward enough for even beginners to understand is excellent. The "Pin" feature is another impressive component of Touchplan. The way you can track a tag's "past' is beneficial when identifying where it stands and why. I like the successor and predecessor features as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Touchplan?

My dislikes are pretty minimal. At times, Touchplan can be sluggish. There are instances where you reduce the number of days or increase the days, and it takes a while to regester and reduces the tag's size. I would like it if you were able to add lines throughout the swimlanes to keep everything organized. Another feature i would maybe try and add would be a start to start or finish to start with a lag period. That way, it doesn't highlight the tag red when you do have that occurring. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Touchplan:

Totally worth it. I highly recommend this product to anyone in the construction industry. Touchplan has completely changed how we manage our day-to-day activities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Touchplan solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use Touchplan to schedule construction activities. Instead of using a whiteboard or another form of scheduling software, I use Touchplan. The benefits of using this live with my construction crews and everyone having access to it. The old ways would be using a wall with sticky notes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Only LEAN way to Pull Plan"

5/5

What do you like best about Touchplan?

Makes Last Planner principles possible for teams that are forced to work remotely. The interface is user friendly and easy to learn. The work product is live and dynamically managed, rather than being put on a wall at the start of a job and then being neglected when things get going. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Touchplan?

Very Complex and large projects may be limited by the number of swim lanes - forcing multiple projects with multiple plans to be developed to Phase and Pull a single site's work. I wish the size of the swim lane was adjustable by all... but understand that could cause issues in practice. I would love to see a way to condense and make legible a screen shot type version of the TouchPlan as it appears on the app, vs the look ahead and other reports that list the tasks in a different way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Touchplan:

I use Whiting-Turner's platform and am a subcontractor user for them. REC Solar and Duke Energy Renewable Corp should be using this extensively and I am advocating for it... but have not been able to get executive sponsorship. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Touchplan solving and how is that benefiting you?

Facilitates more collaborative conversations. Highlights constraints and impacts to it. Makes the work we do t Phase Plan at the start more meaningful and useful as we continue to Pull Plan as we work the project. Balance crews and schedule and use the manpower features to identify and smooth out peaks and valleys in manpower. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Touchplan works well for what it is, sometimes it is too open ended"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Touchplan?

I like how it remains a snapshot in time so when there is a dispute, it is easily settled with the record of commitments Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Touchplan?

Tags are not integrated with other plans. For example, if a milestone tag in one plan is important to be displayed in another, it would be a lot more efficient if modifications to that tag will be reflected on the other plans that have the same tag Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
