Epicflow Reviews

I love that Epiclfow calculates future load and shows the possible resource constraint before it becomes a problem.

Capacity/load.output charts are also great for tracking the team efficiency on a daily basis.

Simulation mode is an interesting solution too, it lets you make any changes to your projects to see the results without disturbing your environment,

It's unclear what some of the graphs show exactly, like bubble chart, I think it's supposed to be an alternative to fever chart but the way projects behave there raises some questions.

IIRC integrations with other software is available on demand, so if you're using PM tools which are not too popular you can probably still use it.

A lot of problems related to project portfolio management, resource scheduling and project management in general.

Being able to see how managing resources between projects will affect them in the future.

Integrations with MS Project is a big plus.

Modern, simple and intuitive interface.

Mobile app was a nice addition.

Fast setup, we were ready to go in a week.

Same downsides as any other PM tool. Takes time to adjust, features require some introdution and etc.

Epicflow has interviewed over 4000 companies as they developed the Epicflow product to understand real-world issues with PPM.

There are many good Project & Portfolio Management tools, which help with strategic project prioritization.

But significant issues start at a tactical level of managing multiple projects simultaneously. Epicflow focuses on the employee level and solves the problem of multi-teaming.

EpicFlow’s graphical resource optimization functionality is ideal for Portfolio of projects where resource contention is a common factor, traditional Project Management tools like MS-Project fail to provide a clear indication. EpicFlow’s ease of use and simple configuration allows for fast tracking and saves on employing extremely expensive enterprise level tools.

EpicFlow’s web tool is fairly new and needs to be updated with new features. My team and I have already provided some recommendations.

Our primary use of Epicflow has been to create an efficient, integrated Sales & Implementation process of production scheduling solutions in complex manufacturing environments. Epicflow provides enterprise-wide visibility to the status of all sales cycles, enabling the consulting team to conduct more effective capacity planning.
