Teamdeck

Overview

Teamdeck is a resource-planning service for organizations coordinating people across projects. It is best suited to project, team, HR, and resource managers who want scheduling, leave, and time records alongside allocation reports. Its strongest case is the breadth of planning and reporting in one product; its key trade-off is that Light Members cannot access the app.

Key features

Scheduling and availability

The calendar combines bookings, availability, vacations, time off, timesheets, and project milestones. Capacity and workload management, skills matching, and resource requests broaden its use from checking who is free to planning staffing needs. Daily planning is the stated granularity, so Teamdeck is a better fit for day-level allocation than for workflows that depend on finer scheduling.

Time tracking and reporting

Time tracking and leave management connect planned work with recorded time and absences. Reports cover team utilization, time off, payroll calculated from timesheets, project budgets, KPIs, and custom reporting. That range is useful for managers reviewing both allocation and time data, although Full Member access is required for the app features that include tracking and reports.

Mobile, integrations, and security

The iOS and Android apps support time tracking, timesheets, and calendar browsing. Built-in integrations include Podio, Sage HR, Slack, and Google Calendar; Zapier and an API offer additional ways to connect or configure workflows. Enterprise adds customizable permissions, audit logs, industry-standard compliance, priority support, 24/7 support, and SLA-backed response times. Teamdeck identifies GDPR as the framework for its personal-data information notice.

Pricing

Teamdeck has a free plan, paid memberships, and a custom-priced Enterprise package. The 14-day free trial requires no credit card.

• Startup: 0.00 USD per free, billed monthly, for up to 6 team members. It is a practical way for a small team to try the service at no cost, but the six-member cap rules it out for larger groups.
• Light Member: 2.00 USD per month, with monthly payment or annual payment at a 10% saving. Light Members have no app access, but appear on the calendar and in reports and can be included in resource planning. This is the lower-cost choice for people who need to be planned around rather than use the product directly.
• Full Member: 6.00 USD per month, with monthly payment or annual payment at a 10% saving. It includes full app access, resource planning, time tracking, leave management, and reports. Choose it for members who need to record or review their own work; the higher price buys direct access that Light excludes.
• Enterprise: custom pricing. Personalized onboarding, a dedicated account manager, custom integrations, advanced security and compliance, and priority support with an SLA suit organizations needing tailored administration and support.

The member distinction matters when estimating costs: a lower-priced Light seat still has planning value, but it does not provide app access. The free Startup plan is capped at six team members, while paid plans offer monthly or annual payment terms.

Platforms

Teamdeck supports Android, iOS, macOS, Windows, web, and API access. Its mobile apps focus on time tracking, timesheets, and calendar browsing; the API can be used to configure bespoke resource-management workflows.

Who it's for

Teamdeck is a sensible fit for project management heads, team managers, HR leaders, and resource managers who need to plan capacity and leave while reviewing utilization, timesheets, or project budgets. It is less compelling for teams that need every member to work directly in the app at the lowest seat price, or for organizations whose planning must be more granular than daily.

Pros and cons

• Pros: One calendar brings together bookings, absences, time records, and milestones, giving managers a consolidated planning view.
• Pros: Reporting spans utilization, payroll from timesheets, budgets, KPIs, and custom reports, supporting several kinds of operational review.
• Pros: Light Members can be planned and included in calendars and reports without app access, which can help distinguish participants who need visibility from those who need full tools.
• Cons: Light Members cannot access the app, so users who need time tracking or leave management require the more expensive Full Member tier.
• Cons: Startup is limited to six team members, making the free plan unsuitable once a team grows beyond that cap.
• Cons: Daily planning may not suit teams that require finer scheduling detail.

Alternatives

Consider Ganttic if a free resource-planning option with room for more people is the priority: its Free plan supports up to 10 resources and unlimited users and projects, with Gantt charts, reports, and Kanban boards. Pick Teamdeck instead when its listed leave management, time tracking, and range of timesheet-based reports matter more.

Napta is another paid alternative for readers comparing resource-planning products.

Mosaic is worth considering if free task and portfolio management alongside time tracking and project and resource planning is appealing; its Starter plan includes iOS and Android apps and 3 free project.

Choose eResource Scheduler if its paid scheduling plans better match your needs.

Teambook is a paid alternative with separately priced timesheet and capacity add-ons.

Smartsheet is a paid option for readers comparing a broader work-management product.

Productive is another paid option, with plans requiring a minimum of three seats.

Scoro is a paid alternative with a free trial and a time-billing plan.

Verdict

Teamdeck is a strong choice for managers who need a shared resource calendar connected to leave, time tracking, and detailed allocation reports. Its main advantage is that planning and work review sit in the same service; its main drawback is the access split between Light and Full Members. Choose it if the free team cap or paid seat mix fits your organization, and look elsewhere if all users need app access at the lower membership price or your planning requires more than daily granularity.
