About Beesbusy
Beesbusy is a collaborative planning tool. Easy to use, it allows to federate expert users and occasional users.
- The planning of the tasks is materialized in a schedule in the form of a Gantt chart (view When of the project), which remains simple and easy to adapt. The multi-project views allow you to have an overview of all your activities.
- Resource planning is done in a view displaying all resources and associated tasks on a schedule (Who view). This view allows you to distribute the workload and to plan it, considering the occupation rates and the constraints of the resources. This planning view by resource also exists in multi-project mode, greatly facilitating arbitration when distributing work to different projects.
By planning tasks AND resources, you activate the levers that allow you to build realistic schedules. You regain visibility on your activity, and everyone gains in serenity.
SIMPLICITY IS THE KEY TO A SUCCESSFUL DEPLOYMENT
Beesbusy's interface is easy to handle, allowing each user to quickly understand how to organize himself.
This is the essential element for a tool to be really used by all, especially by the occasional users and/or those who are not at ease with the computer tools.
MANAGE YOUR PROJECTS
The main steps of project management are as follows:
1. List the tasks to be performed.
2. Evaluate the workload required to complete each task.
3. Assign real or virtual resources to the tasks and allocate the workload to each resource.
4. Plan the tasks by materializing the sequence of tasks and milestones in time and by integrating the constraints and the occupancy rate of each resource.
5. Update the schedule very regularly according to the progress of the work and in particular the remaining time on the tasks which can be re-evaluated during the project.
Beesbusy has advanced functionalities that allow you to perform these steps and to take the height on several projects at the same time:
- What view: task lists.
- When view: dynamic Gantt chart, visualization of a project in time.
- Who view: team planning, visualization of the distribution of tasks and the workload of collaborators with their occupation rate and availability.
- Multi-project: all current projects, customizable filters.
- Dashboards: customizable indicators and creation of project portfolios for monitoring in reporting mode.
- Agenda: view all tasks by day, week and month with their occupancy rates, and manage their constraints (unavailability, vacations, weekly work schedules).

The Best of All of Them
Reviewed on 23/11/2021
Pros
I actually teach project management at a university. When you first start using Beesbusy, the simplicity of the product tends to mask the power of the product. It has an extremely intuitive (almost too simple) "What, When, Who" style of user interface design. As you start using the product, however, it becomes apparent how well it works even for larger projects or project portfolios.
Beesbusy does a stellar job at project/task visualization--better than anything else I've seen. You can filter and sort on virtually anything allowing you to see, at a glance, your workload or your team's workload, or drill down in individual projects. Most everything is "Ganttified" including personal workload calendars. So, for instance, it is easy to see how many things are on your plate over time--allowing you to balance or shuffle tasks. Tasks can also be viewed in a Kanban layout. A couple of other things it does well are time tracking and team communication.
I have reviewed (and have subscriptions to) several other project/task management SaaS apps. Beesbusy absolutely outperforms anything else I have tried. They seem to be a well-funded company with a pretty impressive portfolio of clients and they have put quite a bit of thought into the product. So if I had to pick a socially-driven project management app, this would be it.
Cons
It would be nice to have a desktop app but the product is stellar in a browser.

I’m usually working on more than five complex programs in parallel and I also want to make sure I give the right time and attention to my personal and familial activities. Once I organise all of that on Beesbusy, I know that everything is at my finger tips and that frees up my mind to focus on doing things rather than planning and replanning or wondering what I forgot. I use the business version but this is super easy to invite people to collaborate on a project even if they want to use only the free version. We can instantaneously share the task list and communicate without the need of a complex setup or a painful training. On my business version I can manage at the next level of details with time tracking, critical path scheduling and multi projects consolidation in a transparent way for the people who are just looking at the to do list.
What is amazing is that I can use Beesbusy in the simplest way to share a shopping list with my wife and on the same app follow my complex professional projects.
Pros
The intuitiveness and the look of the user interface on web version.
The possibility to look at an activity through the 3 different views (what, when, who).
The multi projects view. All what matters on the same page.
The customisable dashboard which follows me everywhere on the Webapps and the mobile app.
The voluntary buzz to inform coworkers versus the painful automatic notifications in most other apps.
The pro and personal projects on the same app but with clear identification which helps me prioritising even across my personal and professional life.
Cons
No possibility to work offline (when in a plane for example)
No when or who view on mobile
No Tablet version
Response from Beesbusy
Thank you for your positive review of Beesbusy and thorough feedback.
The absence of planning views (When and Who tabs) on our mobile app version is mainly because of the small size of smartphone screens.
We are very happy to learn that Beesbusy is helping you organize your projects and daily tasks.

As I have mentioned in this review, BeesBusy is a well-designed project management tool. It is easy to figure out and I like the way that it can be customized, including adding our own logo to all the pages. For a web-based application, it is also fast. On the downside, I am disappointed with the support and I know there must be a way to configure the page text to always be in English and not the default French.
Pros
BeesBusy's layout and configuration is well-designed and easy to figure out. If you have previous experience with other project management systems like Trello and Asana, you will have no trouble using BeesBusy.
Cons
My big peeve is whenever I go to log into BeesBusy, the text on the pages is in French. I have to click on a British flag button to convert all the text to English. Other members of my team had the same project. There were two members who spoke French and they liked it. I have contacted support and they have not returned my messages. It appears that support does not work on weekends and works a limited number of hours during the week. The other problem is BeesBusy does not provide a way to use your own subdomain, like [SENSITIVE CONTENT]
