Primetric is a web-based resource planning and profitability platform for professional services firms, particularly IT services and software development companies. It helps managers schedule people against projects, monitor capacity and utilization, match specialists by skills and rates, forecast workload, manage project budgets, track time, and analyze profitability. Its resource model covers services, labor, equipment, materials, money and budget, and space, supporting multi-horizon planning for teams with complex delivery needs.

The product’s strongest area is the depth of its planning and simulation features. Managers can use active, reserved, and draft allocations for forecasts and scenarios, while daily, weekly, and monthly scheduling views support operational planning. Project estimation, phases, milestones, Gantt-style views, custom reports, financial simulations, cash-flow predictions, and profitability analysis extend the product beyond basic scheduling. Skills, contract history, working terms, and time-off management add context to staffing decisions. This makes Primetric a fit for services firms that need detailed resource simulations rather than a narrow calendar for assigning work.

Primetric connects with project-management, time-tracking, leave-management, HR, and API tools, including Jira Cloud, Jira Server 7.0+, Teamwork, Redmine, Harvest, Hubstaff, Clockify, Tempo Timesheets, Calamari, BambooHR, HiBob, and Open API. Standard includes full platform access, manager features, integrations, and 10 hours of onboarding with a dedicated consultant and knowledge-base access. Enterprise adds custom NDA, SLA, and DPA agreements, custom onboarding and workshops, and a dedicated consultant with video support. Since pricing is custom and there is no free plan, Primetric is better suited to firms prepared for a sales-led purchase than smaller teams seeking self-serve entry pricing.
