Incredible customer service. Easy to use Platform.

Commentaires : Lean Planning
Looking back at completion percentages
Weekly Work Plans

Avantages :

- Customer service - Timely responses - Fluid platform - Easy to learn - Reporting function is great

Inconvénients :

- Difficult to track interim milestones, as opposed to one overall milestone... However, Touchplan is always open to ideas and suggestions from their customers

It allows stakeholders to follow up the completion of projects with high efficiency

Commentaires : Touchplan helped us accurately monitor project completion and allowed stakeholders to intervene in a timely manner to prevent delays.

Avantages :

I really like Touchplan's ability to involve contractors in tracking the work program throughout the project lifecycle. I really appreciate Touchplan's unique tools, which allow us to set up a work program that includes all activities and resources. It is great that Touchplan allows us to design the WBS of the project, no matter how many sub-levels are, and the activities under each level are entered easily, and the automation helps with the exact linking of the activities, and showing the start and end dates for them, as well as for the project, and I greatly appreciate that all these steps are done with the cooperation of all Project parties including contractors, consultants and stakeholders, ensuring that the plan is properly prepared. Touchplan's dashboard is unique, it shows updates and we can take notes on it and also allows sending alerts to colleagues. The reporting tools are unique, and we can cooperate with them in preparing them and also send them to the stakeholders, who can review them and send notes on them directly to the specialists.

Inconvénients :

There are no worrisome matters, especially when defining the powers to update the program in the planning and scheduling team, as this ensures that the update process for completion is carried out on time, and all parties to the project can rely on the results and follow the delivery dates accurately.

Lack of logic ties

Commentaires : It's a fairly dummy proof program, however, I think it needs to work on more towards something like P6 or Project where there's a critical path in order to have a huge impact and help the construction teams.

Avantages :

Live update, multiple user can get in and make updates at the same time, interactive with others. The schedule can be access from any device with internet connection.

Inconvénients :

There is no logic ties between activities. We tried using constraint but was also informed to avoid using constraints on all activities. Undo button, for quick messed up that you did 2-3 secs ago. Quick Copy and paste function for multiple tickets, not the duplicate function. Also, I wish we can copy and paste all the activities from 1 phase plan with its "logic" or positions into another phase plan.

Touchplan is a good tool, but I think that the "report" creating function could improve.

Commentaires : Benefits that I get are knowing where the Trade Partners are working on a daily basis and what activities they plan on doing, This allows the Subs to be able to plan and coordinate with each other.

Avantages :

It is easy to teach the Subcontractors how to use the stickies correctly. The ease of use is important to getting the Subs to use Touchplan on a daily basis. I also like that you can see who is inside the plan and is actively working.

Inconvénients :

I do not like the report function. It should give you an example of the report you are producing before you generate it. I am computer savvy, but cannot figure out how to properly use the report tool. It seems like Touchplan has some bugs too. I continuously get an error message at the top of my screen and it said that our payment was overdue for an entire month which was incorrect.

It has streamlined our planning and execution of those plans

Commentaires : Read my prior review. This is a great, industry changing product!

Avantages :

Having the ability to breakdown a project as minute and detailed as you want with the designated manpower, duration's, and cost codes, or the ability to do a high level plan when a project is first being designed and engineered.

Inconvénients :

The font on the tickets is too small when zoomed out to look at a couple months duration's, which is the majority of the projects my contractor does. Also having a better file break down system would be helpful. We have one job site, but then we have about 30 jobs in that one folder. If you could break it down to individual Project managers jobs that might be helpful.

This planning program has made a world of difference to the planning process with our field crews!

Commentaires : Our ability to plan for tasks has increased at an exponential rate by using this program.

Avantages :

Right now, since its new to me, I'm really enjoying the swim lanes feature. It's allowing for very quick and easy organizing of tasks for the different field crews that work out of the same plan. Before swim lanes we had to try and organize ourselves but once a plan had to be modified and moved around it became very unorganized very quick. With the swim lanes it has helped maintain an organized plan.

Inconvénients :

Time. I want to be able to refine my task down to the hour. It wouldn't be used super often but there are plenty of tasks that only take a half day but the smallest time frame I can place on it is 1 whole day.

Touchplan Review

Commentaires : Using Touchplan has made implementing the Last Planner system on my project much easier. The software is easy to use and provide great reports to distribute information.

Avantages :

It is very easy to use and provides a way to collaboratively plan work with Trade Partners.

Inconvénients :

Wish that the activity tickets allowed for more detail like prerequisite work.

Very easy to learn and easy to have others understand and participate

Commentaires : Simplicity of use and added to Lean culture to include people that may not be knowledgeable of critical path scheduling.

Avantages :

Simple display allows people less knowledgeable about construction to understand and participate. Easy to make changes and track reasons for delays.

Inconvénients :

A backup function would be nice if you accidentally delete or move an activity. The lane dividers are nice to seperate work into areas or categories. A link that that ties two items without hindering movement would be nice.

Excellent software.

Avantages :

Ease of learning and fantastic customer service. Really allows you to track in real time project status and integrate team feedback.

Inconvénients :

They didn't come out with it sooner. You do need a world wide web connection to run the platform which can be difficult on certain job sites.

Great for Scheduling!

Commentaires : Great customer service, always looking for feedback and ways to improve!

Avantages :

Touchplan is an interactive program where all subcontractors can buy in to a construction program.

Inconvénients :

I would like to see what other applications Touchplan can be used in.

Touchplan is a fantastic tool

Commentaires : We have improved our schedules and execution of work Saving time and money.

Avantages :

Ease of use. Versatility to modify schedule while maintaining accurate historical data. Excellent customer support and easy on boarding.

Inconvénients :

The reporting could be simplified in certain circumstances for transparency to all parties utilizing the tool and external parties reviewing reports.

Visualizing the logistics of your project

Avantages :

It is extremely easy to use. I teach our tradesmen how to use touchplan with ease. Even for those who are not very computer literate. Touchplan helps you see your plans and create a logical work flow.

Inconvénients :

I do not have any cons that apply to the software itself. It is simple and intuitive.

Touchplan future of Construction

touchplan review

Avantages :

how easy it is to create and edit plan while pulling a report.

Inconvénients :

Moving activities around can be troublesome especially moving more than one acitivity

I liked the tickets, easy it was to move them around. I thought it gave a good visual of schedule.

Commentaires : Avoided having to do a pull planning session in person with a bunch of sticky notes. With touch plan I had the schedule in my pocket, on my ipad, and on my computer at any time.

Avantages :

It was easy to make the tickets, assign manpower and add durations. And since most of our tasks are repeating, I liked how you could duplicate them.

Inconvénients :

The constraints were a little confusing. It was hard to know where to schedule things if you were waiting on another trade. You really need every contractor on the project using touchplan to make it work as it should.

Excellent for construction planning!

Commentaires : Touchplan has been great to help with overall schedule and meeting dates. Much easier for everyone to coordinate as well.

Avantages :

Capacity. Can easily plan out your whole project.

Inconvénients :

Sometimes hard to locate dates or trades when zooming in and out.

Helpful in distributing the schedule in the field. Easy to use.

Commentaires : Helps getting subcontractors bought into the idea of lean construction. Breaks activities into manageable task to help track in scheduling.

Avantages :

Great for collaborating ideas in creating the schedule. Subcontractors can view in the field and understand the logic of the flow of work. Easy to track and maintain schedule.

Inconvénients :

Does not push activities that are linked together. Want to see bars with actual length on right side of active line to help schedule prior to moving to left of active line.

Great tool!

Avantages :

This tool is very easy to learn and teach. The export function on Touchplan is very handy as well.

Touch Plan was a great tool for our project.

Commentaires : It was an easy way to provide my weekly schedule updates without having to email a schedule to the the CM each week.

Avantages :

I liked that it was real time and that all of the contractors could be entering their tickets in at the same time. The software was easy to use.

Inconvénients :

More colors were needed as we had more contractors than colors. Without enough colors it got confusing as to who was responsible for what as multiple contractors had the same colors.

A very collaboratively software combined with the Nureva touch wall.

Commentaires : we get to run Last Planner system in a large scale project, which is hard without such a tool

Avantages :

The ease of use, and how it looks. The software is extremely touch-wall friendly, which is one of the most important features.

Inconvénients :

lack of KPI/metrics. "should do" are missing. There should be more ways to measure. The twin-lane should be integrated so that the notes attached to the correct lane.

Fast way to build and streamline a schedule

Commentaires : Creates an easy to interpret schedule at a glance.

Avantages :

The program creates a fast and efficient way to build and review a schedule. Its makes for a idea of where you stand on a given project at a glance.

Inconvénients :

Could use more ways to identify tasks making it easier to delineate different types of tasks. It would also be helpful to add more information to the mile stones.

Very easy planning software

Commentaires : We have used this for planning with multiple teams and it has worked well

Avantages :

You can quickly make and change work plans .

Inconvénients :

No undo function that I am aware of although there is a snapshot feature.

The best pull plan software I have used to date.

Commentaires : Quick and easy to use.

Avantages :

Easy to use across multiple platforms. They listen to feedback and work on new features based on the users needs.

Great Tool to Generate Accountability

Avantages :

Great tool with an easy to understand interface which ties directly to the project master schedule. Great visual tool for review with Contractors

Inconvénients :

Not as widely known in some areas, therefore, Owner adoption and agreement on use can not always be guaranteed.

Once the basic information is loaded the software has been fairly easy yo use

Avantages :

Maintaining the logic from week to week is helpful during updates and easily modified for any changes that occur

Inconvénients :

I would like to see the planned start and planned finish date be formatted month,day, year. Other than that it seems fairly straightforward.
