About

Inspire Planner is one of the leading Salesforce project management apps. It is used across multiple industries by companies of all sizes, ranging from small businesses to large public enterprises. For years we have searched for an effective Salesforce-native project management application with little success. Our search on Salesforce AppExchange led us to apps that were either too expensive, had too many features that we didn't need, or were selling a new way of doing things. We chose to put our talents to work and develop the app we were in search of. This vision became Inspire Planner. With Inspire Planner, you can enjoy many powerful features such as multiple predecessors, interactive Gantt chart, automations, templates, time tracking, resource capacity planning, and many more, while enjoying our intuitive UI. If you are using Microsoft Project, Smartsheet, or a similar tool but want to integrate everything in Salesforce, Inspire Planner can be an ideal transition.

About

Worksection is an all-in-one project management platform that replaces five separate tools — a task manager, planner, time tracker, work chat, and file storage — with one system on a single per-user price. Built for teams of 5 to 50+ — agencies, IT, consulting, manufacturing, and construction — especially teams that bill clients by the hour. Manage tasks and subtasks, plan with Gantt charts, Kanban boards and a calendar, track time with hourly rates for client billing, discuss work inside each task, and keep files where they belong. Reports and dashboards turn project data into decisions. Unlike tools that sell time tracking and client billing as paid add-ons, both are built in. Free for teams up to 5 users. Worksection has been doing this since 2008 — GDPR and ISO 27001 certified, available in 11 languages.

Cons

  • It takes some time to get used to all the features and workflow.
  • Some settings take time to figure out, the mobile version could be more convenient, a slight learning curve.
  • We’re still discovering all the possibilities the platform has to offer
  • Limited notification customization, some features take time to get used to, the mobile version could be more convenient, sometimes there's too much information on one screen, more automation options would be helpful, and not all features are equally intuitive.
  • So far, my experience has been entirely positive, and I haven't noticed any issues worth mentioning.
