ConsultancyOS vs Runn
Runn is a modern resource planning tool with strong capacity and revenue forecasting based on who is booked on what. ConsultancyOS includes that forecasting as part of a full consulting operating system that also delivers the work, bills it and runs the firm's finances.
Runn focuses on people planning: scheduling, capacity, utilisation and forward forecasts of revenue and resourcing. It is a clean, focused planning layer often paired with other tools for delivery and billing, and it forecasts the work rather than producing it.
