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. * * * Seller [Uptempo](https://www.g2.com/sellers/uptempo) Discussions [Uptempo Community](https://www.g2.com/products/uptempo/discuss) Languages Supported English Solution Type All-in-One Overview by Jeynel Sumar Show More ## Value at a Glance Averages based on real user reviews. ### Time to Implement 4 months ### Return on Investment 16 months [ View More Pricing Information ](https://www.g2.com/products/uptempo/pricing) ## Top-Rated Alternatives [ ![Planful](/assets/transparent-ad5be28fbcd25b7b08d2cebe1d957125437fb5407d75ee717965ad22c8808791.gif "Planful") Planful 4.3/5(508) ](https://www.g2.com/products/planful/reviews) [ ![Aprimo](/assets/transparent-ad5be28fbcd25b7b08d2cebe1d957125437fb5407d75ee717965ad22c8808791.gif "Aprimo") Aprimo 4.3/5(303) ](https://www.g2.com/products/aprimo/reviews) [ ![Wrike](/assets/transparent-ad5be28fbcd25b7b08d2cebe1d957125437fb5407d75ee717965ad22c8808791.gif "Wrike") Wrike 4.2/5(4,539) ](https://www.g2.com/products/wrike/reviews) [ View All Alternatives ](https://www.g2.com/products/uptempo/competitors/alternatives) ## User Insights Average based on 147 real user reviews.

I love the customer service and how customizable it is. We've had to constantly make changes and Allocadia has been nothing but accommodating and helpful. They're customer service is top notch and responds so quickly and is always so, so helpful! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Uptempo? There's not much to dislike, to be honest! I wish the integrations were a little more robust but honestly, we've always been able to figure out a way to make it work so it hasn't been a huge issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Uptempo solving and how is that benefiting you? Definitely tracking and reporting of marketing spends. It's so easy to pull reports and get insight into our spends which is a very valuable thing here. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 9/26/2018 "Allocadia Does All We Want And More" 5/5 What do you like best about Uptempo? The flexibility of Allocadia is something which as a Finance person is great for my Marketers as it makes their life, and mine easier. Integration is awesome with Allocadia. We have our actuals from NetSuite imported daily, we have Campaign Hierarchy we use for Marketo and we are also integrated with SalesForce. The metrics we are able to produce and share with our Execs makes them happy as well. The Support we receive from Allocadia is beyond amazing and I definitely want to mention this as Customer Service for me is HUGE. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Uptempo? The challenge we have been working with the Allocadia team on is the ability to prepare a PO for the following year based on budget items as well as expenses crossing fiscal years. It takes a bit of work but the Allocadia team helps to address this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Uptempo: Allocadia is a very flexible product and the technology is great. The fact that we are able to integrate with so many other vendors including NetSuite, Salesforce, Marketo is a huge deal for us. Allocadia appreciates feedback as well as they continue to update, innovate and create based on Customer feedback. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Uptempo solving and how is that benefiting you? We have all our budgeting prepared in Allocadia as well as actual imports and campaigns to show ROI to our exec team. The problem in the past that was we had many people using various methods to forecast as well as where they stored their information. Allocadia takes care of this as we are able to have one system where we can upload information, enter data and have the actuals imported to compare where in the past I would need to prepare a separate download and send a report to the Marketing team with the actuals and it would be a challenge to try and match the budget to the actuals. We use Allocadia as a PO system and we were able to work with Allocadia and created an automated email which is produced when a line item in a budget is created. This has been another great job by Allocadia. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

KE Ken E. Senior Director Marketing Operations Computer Software Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 9/24/2018 "Marketing Team at $100MM+ SaaS company stays on track" 5/5 What do you like best about Uptempo? From a budget management standpoint, it keeps all budget owners organized and accountable for their own budgets. And it provides our CMO complete confidence in hitting our quarterly forecast targets. From a performance measurement standpoint, it provides great visibility into how our campaigns are performing from an ROI standpoint. And is a powerful planning tool that helps guide marketing strategy for future periods. And finally, the support of the platform is as good as it gets. Great CSMs and community to learn and improve from. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Uptempo? As a comprehensive budget management tool it does require a decent amount of training for the users. As the champion and primary admin of the platform, be prepared to always be training and reminding your users on how to use it correctly. As with any end user...some are better than others. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Uptempo: Works great with any sized budget that has multiple owners. Especially helpful when you have a strong working relationship with your Finance department. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Uptempo solving and how is that benefiting you? It was originally to get off spreadsheets. Now it's to have a steady state set of performance measures to guide us in course correction and future planning. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

BM Brittany M. Events Campaign Manager Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 9/24/2018 "Easy to use and scale" 4.5/5 What do you like best about Uptempo? If you have a large team that is spread out across multiple geos, Allocadia makes it really easy to manage the budget. The tool is relatively simple and integrates with other finance tools, which makes budgeting — a time intensive activity, that much easier. It updates in real-time so your team will see what you're seeing, no matter where they are located. And everyone can be on the same page or make updates without fear of lag time. Organization by cost center, campaign, project, group or team is easy and creates a nice visual based on how your org is structured. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Uptempo? Some of the advanced features aren't as intuitive as I would like. But for a non-finance person, you can get the most out of the tool without too much extra effort. I wish updating forecasts was a little easier, but I believe its likely that's how we have ours set up internally and less of a product or functionality situation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Uptempo: I would absolutely recommend this tool to others looking to manage their budgets. It works great for a team that's spread out but would be just as easy if everyone was co-located! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Uptempo solving and how is that benefiting you? Managing a department budget with budget owners spanned across the globe.

CG Cassidy G. Sr. Marketing Manager, Construction Sector Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 9/24/2018 "Marketing budget tracking made easy!" 4.5/5 What do you like best about Uptempo? I've been using Allocadia since 2012 and it has only improved in capabilities over that time. The ability to easily enter and track our budgets without spreadsheets is amazing. With Allocadia you are able to review and see what has been planned versus committed making forecasting for your finance team so much easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Uptempo? As changes happen within the business it's not always easy to rearrange/split those items from your original budget. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Uptempo solving and how is that benefiting you? Allocadia allows us to see where we are spending our money and then analyze with our other tools where we are seeing the most success in our marketing efforts.

The ability to see spend history over time as well as forecast where marketing priorities and budget need to be aligned to for the larger department. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Uptempo? The user interface is clunky and it's cumbersome to easily navigate from one view to another. Often times, I find it challenging to remember which view is best to forecast, see my actual budget and actual spends. Also the layout of the Allocadia dashboard in a web browser makes it hard to see a snapshot of everything without having to download it into an excel file. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
