I'm involved in many projects and that involves switching quite often among them as well as through all my tasks. The navigation is well thought out and means that I don't lose time viewing the tasks that I need to. The views are also nicely designed, the important information is distinguishable and easy to follow. It doesn't make time tracking or project management feel like such a chore. I'm really happy with Forecast. > > **Cons**: The only thing I wish Forecast had was an optional dark mode. I use it often enough that throughout the entire day, the white colour scheme gets tiring after while, especially at night time. > > I'm generally very happy with Forecast. It receives frequent updates and the UI/UX is constantly getting better. I can't see us using anything else anytime soon. ----- ### "Centreline Architecture Forecast Review" — 5.0/5 > **Rob** | *13 November 2019* | Architecture & Planning | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Forecast's customer support is one of the best I have ever had to work with. Second would be the ease of use for staff to help plan out projects and timelines. > > **Cons**: Sometimes parts don't work correctly but they are quick to fix the issues. > > With Forecast we are easily able to plan our architectural projects and meet deadlines and stay within the allotted budgets. Forecast is consistently updating with new features and addons. ----- ### "Steep Learning Curve" — 4.0/5 > **Sahar** | *11 June 2019* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: I can easily see my upcoming and past cards, deadlines, project timelines, milestone plans, team members. I can easily change the status of the card from to-dos to in-progress to Done. > > **Cons**: It's not very easy to use and has a long learning curve. > > Timeline management. One software for the internal and client-side view which provides a lot of transparency to the project. ----- Page: 1 / 5\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/38855/forecast?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/38855/forecast) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
