Why Stay Limited by Excel’s Capabilities?

Spreadsheets are convenient, but you need better visualization and flexibility for complex planning.

Introducing Meisterplan:
A Highly Visual and Dynamic Alternative to Excel

Organizations often start with Excel to set up their basic plans, but they quickly outgrow this process as planning gets more complex. Spreadsheets are tedious to maintain, and data is hard to visualize. That’s where Meisterplan comes in.

Straightforward Visualizations

Simulate changes and see the effects in real time, so you know exactly what is and isn’t feasible.

Resource and Capacity Management

Use the same dataset and get views for different perspectives, so you can manage both projects and people.

Easy-to-Understand Data

Keep upper management informed on project progress with various graphs and reports.

What Christopher loves about Meisterplan

We successfully run 400 projects and 20 programs in our portfolio with Meisterplan. Although many have tried, you can’t manage that many programs and resources in Excel templates. But you can with Meisterplan.

What Matthias loves about Meisterplan

Before implementing Meisterplan, our resource management was a game of Excel bingo: timeconsuming, cumbersome, and error prone.

What Barry loves about Meisterplan

I give Meisterplan an A+ for the experience of modifying the project timeline and resourcing. Consider this model if you’ve struggled to forecast resource capacity using spreadsheets or large commercial tools.
