Uptempo is the enterprise marketing system of record that helps marketing leaders prove and improve ROI by connecting budgets, plans, and performance in one platform. Built for complex organizations, Uptempo gives marketers a single source of truth to manage investments with financial discipline, plan with confidence, and adapt faster as priorities change. Deep ERP/EPM connections—actuals, GL mapping, and reconciliation—keep budgets under control, so marketing can see investments trending ahead or behind plan. Performance dashboards help CMOs build credibility by tying marketing spend to measurable business outcomes. With a unified marketing calendar plus real-time dashboards and scenario modeling, leaders can pressure-test decisions and reallocate confidently as signals change. All of this runs with enterprise-grade governance: configurable hierarchies, role-based access, SSO, and audit trails. By replacing disconnected spreadsheets and point solutions with one governed workspace, Uptempo improves visibility, alignment, and decision-making across the marketing organization. Uptempo is the CMO's enterprise command center for closed-loop operations, helping to transform marketing from a cost center to a credible growth driver for the business.

5/5

Very user friendly, we stay within our budget targets within 1% using Allocadia. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Allocadia helped bring all of our disparate budget spreadsheets, into one actionable tool"

5/5

What do you like best about Uptempo?

We have a very complex enterprise marketing environment, with many franchises and divisions within those franchises. Every division was tracking their marketing spend in a different way and we had no visibility into what was being spent week over week - and if we were getting the most out of our marketing dollars. Allocadia helped up bring together all of our disparity into a single great tool that is easy to use - regardless of your role. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Uptempo?

I would really like our teams to start using the planning tools for goals and objectives and then tie spend against those. Unfortunately, there is only the option of doing that for a single team. Every one of our divisions has unique goals and objectives, so it would be cool if each franchise could have their own set of those - then we could use it. Right now we can't. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Uptempo:

I know there are other tools like Allocadia, but not only are they the best we found, but their account team and customer success managers are truly the best in the business. And their support is outstanding. That is often hard to find in software vendors - not with Allocadia, they are excellent! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We have reduced waste across the business because we can now see where money is being spent across all divisions on technology, contractors, vendors, etc., and we are now consolidating these relationships to gain better economies of scale. Allocadia gave us this visibility. Also, we are ensuring that all of our budget is used each quarter. We don't want to waste any of our budget, with bad tracking practices. Allocadia ensures that we are on budget, invoices are received within the quarter and no dollars are wasted. We love it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

3.5/5

the team is very quick to get back to you and is highly knowledgeable Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Uptempo?

the system is not very intuitive and requires training in order to understand how to enter, track and report correctly Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Uptempo:

"Great Insight and Visibility"

4/5

What do you like best about Uptempo?

1 - The layout of Hive9 is very logical in how they present information and the way tht you interface with the tool and they continue to improve upon it constantly.

2 - The ability to be able to see what impact Marketing is having on revenue and show our impact back to finance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Uptempo?

For us it a little difficult to getting set-up with the tool since we report or use SFDC a little bit different, however the team at Hive9 was great in their ability to work with us and provide a solution that allowed us to still utilize the tool to the fullest extent while not having to change everything on our end. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Uptempo:

The team at Hive9 is great to work with and is willing to go the extra mile to make sure that you are a happy customer (from my experience) but you need to make sure that you are being as open as possible with them. They are a great resource for best practice as well, so I would try to align with as much as possible with their recommendations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

As an organization we were struggling to be able to have all of the marketing team and finance on the same page with what is going to be spend, by whom , and when. With the addition of Hive9 all of that was solved.

Hive9 does a great job at laying out the budget down to the individual tactic in a very logical layout.

For us this allowed us to be able to get trust with the finance team because they were able to see what we were doing and actually see the ROI of our activities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
