Fantastic!

Pros

This program saves hours in all aspects of event planning - initial proposals, budget considerations, contracts, menu pricing, tracking profits, you name it.

Their staff is incredibly efficient and helpful. I was working remotely late on a Friday - after business hours - had an issue, and they contacted me back within 30 minutes and had the problem fixed. Awesome!

Cons

It would be nice if it could integrate with FSA Star Solutions database.

A final count due date indicator would be nice.

This is a review

great overall

Pros

Total Party Planner really helps us organize and keep the team on the same page. When we moved from using spread sheets to this software, our team alignment skyrocketed overnight, with our clients seeing the most benefit from this.

Cons

To be able to attached PDF files for events such as floor plans. Also, scheduling and staffing sign in and out functions would be key

Alternatives Considered

Caterease

Reasons for Switching to Total Party Planner

It seemed better than caterease. Which it is.

Response from Computica

On The Move Catering Review

My experience with Total Party Planner has been up and down. It's very convenient and the functions are very cool. Once trained, everything is really easy to use. Customer support has been wonderful!!! The only negative is that sometimes it glitches or takes a while to load.

Pros

If I don't know how to do something, then I can call and the customer service representatives will help me out!

Cons

Sometimes it glitches.

Response from Computica

Ray, Thank you for your candid review and your kudos to our support team. I've asked the team to brief me on any of your open tickets to make sure we get everything ironed out for you. Also, just to let you know, we are constantly working on our internal infrastructure to make the system more efficient. We have some really powerful changes coming to the architecture by the end of year. -- John Cohen

Excellent Customer Service

Having worked in multiple industries with many different companies, TPP's customer service team is exceptional. They are the folks that make the software worth the expense.

Pros

No question that the absolute best feature of Total Party Planner is your excellent customer service. They respond super promptly. They are always helpful and easy to talk to and will, when necessary, walk us through any steps we need to get the results we're looking for.

Cons

A robust mobile app would be great to have.
