Frequently Asked Questions

What is a capacity planning platform?+

A capacity planning platform is a comprehensive cloud SaaS solution that allows IT Directors to manage their entire IT capacity from anywhere in the world, with all necessary features integrated in a single system: strategic planning tools for forecasting and resource allocation, real-time visualization dashboards showing capacity utilization and project status, intelligent allocation capabilities powered by AI that suggest optimal resource assignments, comprehensive reporting features for executive communication and stakeholder updates, and seamless integrations with popular timesheet tools like Jira Tempo, Azure DevOps, Toggl, and Clockify. The platform is accessible via any modern web browser, requires no installation or local infrastructure, and includes automatic updates, cloud backup, and enterprise-grade security. This approach eliminates the need for multiple disconnected tools, reduces administrative overhead, and provides a unified view of your entire IT capacity landscape that updates in real-time as conditions change.

Why choose a SaaS platform rather than installed software?+

Choosing a SaaS platform over installed software offers numerous significant advantages: universal access from anywhere with an internet connection, eliminating the need to be in the office or on a specific device, automatic updates that ensure you always have the latest features and security patches without manual intervention, no installation or maintenance requirements that reduce IT overhead and eliminate compatibility issues, infinite scalability that grows with your organization without requiring hardware upgrades, automatic cloud backup that protects your data and ensures business continuity, predictable subscription-based costs that are easier to budget than large upfront licenses, and seamless collaboration features that allow team members to work together regardless of location. SaaS platforms like Workload also typically offer better security with enterprise-grade encryption, GDPR compliance, and regular security audits, while providing responsive customer support and continuous feature improvements based on user feedback.

Is the platform secure?+

Yes, Workload is a highly secure SaaS platform designed with enterprise-grade security measures including end-to-end data encryption both in transit and at rest to protect your sensitive information, full GDPR compliance ensuring that your data handling meets European data protection standards, SSO/SAML integration for enterprises that want to use their existing identity providers, regular automated backups that ensure data recovery in case of any issues, role-based access control that allows you to define granular permissions for different team members, audit trails that track all changes and access for compliance purposes, and regular security audits and penetration testing to identify and address potential vulnerabilities. Your data is stored in secure, compliant data centers with redundant systems, and is accessible only by authorized members of your organization. Workload takes data security seriously and continuously invests in maintaining the highest security standards to protect your IT capacity information.

Can I access the platform from mobile?+

Yes, the Workload platform is fully responsive and accessible from all modern devices including desktop computers, laptops, tablets, and smartphones running iOS or Android. The platform's responsive design automatically adapts to different screen sizes, ensuring that you have full functionality whether you're viewing capacity dashboards on a large monitor or checking project allocations on your phone. This mobile accessibility means you can view your IT capacity status, check for conflicts, review team allocations, and even make quick adjustments to resource assignments from anywhere, at any time. The mobile experience maintains all core features while optimizing the interface for touch interactions and smaller screens, making it easy to stay connected to your capacity planning even when you're away from your desk. This flexibility is particularly valuable for IT Directors who need to make quick decisions or respond to urgent capacity issues while traveling or working remotely.

Are data automatically backed up?+

Absolutely. The Workload platform performs automatic daily backups of all your data including team information, project details, resource allocations, historical data, and configuration settings. These backups are stored in secure, geographically distributed data centers with redundant systems to ensure maximum reliability. In addition to daily backups, the platform also maintains point-in-time recovery capabilities, allowing you to restore your data to any specific moment in the past if needed. The backup process is completely automated and requires no action from you, ensuring that your data is always protected without adding to your administrative workload. In the unlikely event of data loss or corruption, Workload's support team can quickly restore your information from these backups, minimizing downtime and ensuring business continuity. This automated backup system is one of the key advantages of a SaaS platform over self-hosted solutions, where backup management would be your responsibility.
