# Tempo Reviews & Product Details

Visit Website

Founded in 2009, Tempo Software is a Jira-native platform for strategic portfolio management, built to help organizations keep strategy, budgets, and delivery aligned as human and AI teams work side by side. Tempo brings together three product lines — Tempo, Strategic Roadmaps, and Structure PPM — into one connected system. Tempo is used by more than 30,000 companies, including one in three Fortune 500 organizations. Tempo's suite of solutions covers the full range of portfolio work, from individual projects to enterprise-wide programs: - Time tracking and financial management tools for logging hours, tracking costs, and managing budgets, capital expense, and operating expense across projects - Capacity and resource planning tools that show team availability, workload, and skill sets in real time, synced directly with Jira sprint data - Portfolio and program management tools that visualize multiple Jira projects, programs, and portfolios in a single, customizable view - Roadmapping tools that create shareable, audience-specific roadmaps for executives, product teams, and customers - Reporting and data visualization tools, including no-code dashboards, Gantt charts, and connectors for BigQuery, Tableau, and Power BI Organizations use Tempo to catch strategic drift before it compounds — the gap that opens up when plans, budgets, and delivery fall out of sync, especially as AI agents take on more work without filing a single status report. Instead of relying on quarterly planning cycles or scattered spreadsheets, planning and portfolio leaders get real-time visibility into where time, budget, and capacity are actually going, so adjustments happen before small gaps turn into missed deadlines or blown budgets.

"Easy to use for both managers and employees"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Tempo?

The Outlook calendar integration that pre-populates your timesheet allows you to quickly track time on your meetings. If you create your Outlook appointments with the appropriate Jira ticket number it makes adding time even easier, one quick confirmation is all you need to do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tempo?

Tempo will propose Jira tickets and durations for your timetracking, however this can be hit and miss. For instance, if you keep a Jira ticket open in a tab as reference then Tempo will propose this ticket to you every day with varying durations. A bit annoying, but that's it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Allows me to see how much time we spend on a given project, as well as time spent supporting customers, this then helps me take decisions. I also found it a useful tool to see if my remote team were getting overwhelmed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Allows for manual time tracking for all JIRA users, followed by having some basic reporting tools."

3.5/5

What do you like best about Tempo?

Tempo allows you to handle teams of people and monthly approvals through the team leads and proxies.

It has the most needed configurations for reports, such as:

- the start of the period

- the length of the reporting period

- the ability to let people log time into the future or not Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tempo?

Teams have to be manually managed. As staff joins, leaves and moves teams, you must maintain the team alignments.

Large organizations can have a large team count, which becomes challenging to maintain. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Tracking time to specific projects, with the ability to report on the time per person spent. Allowing us to provide this to the accounting team for capitalization of the development costs of new software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Time-consuming and buggy"

0/5

What do you like best about Tempo?

While tedious to use, it has a feature to automatically log the time it took you to log your time on a JIRA task which is significant. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tempo?

Recurring bugs enough to cause significant productivity loss and it is hard to convince their support that there is really a problem that they should address Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Brings additional burden to keep record of efforts and time spent on JIRA tasks, sometimes not saving submissions and sometimes causing double entries which are extremely difficult to detect and fix retrospectively Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The perfect complement for JIRA Cloud"

5/5

What do you like best about Tempo?

Tempo Timesheets is the best complement for JIRA Cloud because it allows you to properly do time tracking of your JIRA Issues.

With Tempo you can plan and track your timesheets and have better control over your project. By the end of each period, you will be able to check the contributions by each of your developers with accurate measurement of their time spent into developing their assigned tasks.

Tempo also offers great reporting tools that are highly valuable for you as a Project Manager. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tempo?

I believe they could improve the visualization of exported timesheets, when you sport to PDF or Excel spreadsheet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Time tracking of JIRA Cloud Issues with useful reports and the ability to filter by project or user.

Edit time estimations, add trackers while developing a new feature, etc.

Tempo is as I already stated, the perfect complement for JIRA Cloud. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"best at monitoring project status and how much hour into it"

4/5

What do you like best about Tempo?

Track the whole team's hours that are put into the project, very precise as it's integrated with Jira tickets for the project Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tempo?

Maybe add some details about how much time is left in blocked tickets for a certain project Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Project cost tracking and easy monitor what the team worked on and how many hours they put into on that project Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simplicity is Tempo's biggest asset"

4/5

What do you like best about Tempo?

It's fast and intuitive. Logging time at the end of the day is quite easy due to its simple design. I spend less time logging time and more time working on issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tempo?

Not being able to adjust some of the default behavior, such as the minimum time unit on the logged time suggestions. More control over the application-level settings would be great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Keeping track of hours spent on issues so they can be correlated with service agreements. I'm not in a position that requires time tracking for wages, so in my case it's a productivity loss, but I can see how it can help quite a bit in such cases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Been using with my team for years!"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Tempo?

We've been using Tempo for years on Jira. Tempo has been very helpful in reviewing resources spent within our team. We are now setting up with a new software called Forecast, and it's fully integratable.

Looking forward to seeing how Tempo could become with Forecast. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tempo?

Would like to see better UI (user interface design) within the Tempo app. Reports could look more visually appealing for team leads to comprehend and understand better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Tempo:

If you are considering to integrate this with the team, it would be best to have an SOP, so this can be rolled out consistently with everyone on the team. If everyone is on board with using Tempo, it will give you a good high-level understanding of your resources. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

With tempo integrated, we are able to keep track resources spent within our team, projects, clients. This will allow us to align our future planning of assignment and engagements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Makes time tracking so easy!"

5/5

What do you like best about Tempo?

The calendar integration also makes things incredibly easy. As long as people are adding links to the Jira stories in their meeting description, the people who were in the meeting can go and click a checkbox, and they have logged time for the meeting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tempo?

It has a lot of really great reporting options, I just wish there were some additional ways to slice and dice the data, though I certainly admit that I am probably being a little pedantic in what I am looking for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Tempo:

They've got a large suite of other applications that also tie into this. If you are serious about enterprise time tracking, it's worth diving into the other products. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Time tracking for professional services and time tracking by a project to see where we spend a lot of time in our workflow. The most significant benefit is that it is helping us to realize where we need to add automation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Tempo time sheets has become integral to our day to day processes"

5/5

What do you like best about Tempo?

The calendar view of Tempo Timesheets is outstanding; you can look at it in comparison with your daily calendar, Office 365, or Google. It will list all your scheduled meetings allowing you to quickly add time and the correct ticket association to those meetings. Tempo will also track the amount of time you spend on a given ticket and provide suggestions on where your time went making it a snap to review your entries and track your work.

Tempo Timesheets is an essential tool if using Jira and tracking time granularly for billing accuracy to clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tempo?

There are few things that I believe tempo doesn't do well. One thing I do find frustrating is the ability to configure and store filters on the time entry box. and the inability to say "Not included in" vs. "Included in" only. It would make it much more straightforward, for instance, to say "Status Not In done or canceled" instead of having to do "Status IN 50 different statuses." Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Tempo:

You can demo it for free give it a test run; you won't be disappointed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Time tracking, view, reporting, and scheduling have all become much more efficient, leading to higher productivity saving time and money. For me this has had a direct result in better performance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
