**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Anna-Hill S. |  Retail Marketing Manager , Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 13, 2021

**What do you like best about OmniPlan?**

Omniplan’s best part for us is that by using its features we can get full control of the details and we utilized it to track the process and progress in project execution. Its reports are highly professional and this is important for us as we have found the reporting part quite weak in other software of this type. It is highly efficient in resource and budget management too. It has all the essential collaboration tools which we were in search of and it works so well with iPad, iPhone, and our Mac devices. I love it working and how it helped us in uplifting our productivity.

**What do you dislike about OmniPlan?**

They should make available other dynamic designs to make project presentations more eye-catching. And also its sky-high price is highly unappreciative since it is our necessity we are using it otherwise its price is quite expensive.

**What problems is OmniPlan solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Ominiplan is a great tool for offline project planning, we are using it and our experience is quite amazing with it. I can track the process and progress of our project execution. Its reporting part is its great strength as it is highly professional. It works so well with iPad, iPhone, and our Mac devices which give us the freedom to track project details from our smart devices. Resource and budget management is no more a big settlement for us. I don’t like its price and they should include some other designs for the project presentation in it too.

Any time I need to oversee interlocking cross conditions, I rely on OmniPlan. You get a one-time cost and straightforward with the cloud. They update and steadfastly utilize each new thing that accompanies Mac OS redesigns. It has all task highlights yet the route board permits full control on subtleties. It has all key elements (basic pattern...) in addition to Montevallo reenactment. I've never utilized it to follow the undertaking execution, yet in addition to this, it appears to be extremely amazing. also, it has some pre-characterized reports for the undertaking that looks proficient.

**What do you dislike about OmniPlan?**

The greatest hindrance is this is just upheld for the MAC and IOS clients just so one should require the Apple Products to utilize this. One can't have the option to utilize Omniplan on the off chance that he/she is an android client. Another impediment is on the off chance that an individual isn't thinking about the Gantt outlines, at that point likewise they couldn't deal with Omniplan.

**What problems is OmniPlan solving and how is that benefiting you?**

One of the best benefits is, It assisted us with having a realistic perspective on the execution of two of our most significant ventures, its moderate attributes made a superb space for coordinated effort and work, magnified greatness, collaboration, and achievement. At whatever point there is another venture that has different moving parts and individuals appointed to it, it truly helps keep things coordinated and quantifiable. By and large, it's aiding increment the efficiency of the group.
