## About TruePlan
TruePlan helps companies acquire, retain and grow talent in an intentional way by providing insight and control into every aspect of requesting, approving and managing headcount. With detailed approval flows, you can rest assured that recruiting is only working on filling seats that have gone through the full approval process. Easy-to-follow flows ensure everyone knows where their headcount requests are within the approval chain and when to expect hiring to start. TruePlan’s Org Chart view allows you to see how your headcount plan fits into your existing organization, making it easy to visualize both your current and future workforce. Analytics, data validation and insights are wrapped into every step of planning and hiring in order to help your company make the best decisions for your goals and put your headcount forecast and workforce metrics to work. Every detail is housed within the TruePlan system where users can contribute and collaborate in real-time. By integrating with your ATS and HRIS systems, all previously siloed information is now accessible to your team with sensitive data limited to only those who need to see it.




## TruePlan Reviews
  ### 1. Game changing tool for Finance and People teams.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Consumer Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 24, 2022

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

The ability to align and manage current headcount, approved hires and recruiting activity in an actual tool and in a cohesive manner (vs. having 25 different spreadsheets floating around the company).  Most people don't realize that even mature companies (such as an Uber) do not have a simple way to track current headcount against approved headcount and compare against actual recruiting progress. Often times these companies have 20-30 spreadsheets floating around every part of the company, none of which actually tie to each other or the actual plan approved by Finance. This tool is a magic bullet that will be a staple in the tech industry in the near future.

**What do you dislike about TruePlan?**

Honestly, not much to complain about. The company is new, so there are obviously some features that do not currently exist (since they haven't built it into the tool yet), but they are extremely receptive to customer feedback, and more importantly are run by a team of former leaders at major startups in the valley (LinkedIn, Airbnb, Flexport, etc.). The UI also has come a long way, but still isn't perfect. Again, they are relatively new and are improving the product at an incredible rate. The functionality and overall experience of the tool is far beyond the level it needs to be in order to deliver value. Really impressed with this company and excited to be a long term customer!

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

See my previous responses, but ultimately TruePlan solves the inexplicable amount of time company leaders spend reconciling their headcount in spreadsheets with recruiting and finance (how many heads they currently have vs. how many are approved vs. how many are actually being worked on by recruiting. Seemingly basic information that no company or tool has effectively pulled together in a live manner until now!

  ### 2. Headcount made easy

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Staffing and Recruiting | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 22, 2022

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

TruePlan is extremely user-friendly. Their dashboards are easy to use and navigate. Our Recruiters know exactly what roles are available for which department and when. We are able to utilize TruePlan to demonstrate to leaders what is available and what isn't.

**What do you dislike about TruePlan?**

The one thing TruePlan doesn't currently feature is the band/ranges for our Recruiters to view when they've been assigned a role. There are workarounds but I would love to see this on the product roadmap sooner rather than later!

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

We are using TruePlan to help solve for headcount distribution and tracking. In the past, we used excel spreadsheets that were confusing and difficult to follow. TruePlan has allowed our Recruiting team and Org leaders easy access to view and understands headcount goals and requests.
