About Yamdu
With functions for planning, sharing, and communication, Yamdu is a visual scheduling device and creative planning system. Yamdu allows users to plan and organize events, define workflow processes, and share or collaborate with others to gather insight or equal input. It does this while also updating what each user is doing or working on in real-time. It serves as a centralized online hub for all the team members to congregate or collaborate on projects, ensuring that no members are kept out of the loop.
Yamdu allows users to plan out sessions, appointments, callbacks, etc. It then compiles usable information and prepares it for exporting or printing as call sheets, schedule planners, inventory reports, and more. Users can visually see which tasks team members have completed and which are still pending. The fruits of each team member's laboring can be uploaded and hosted for use by other members involved in the team.

Pros
I love that Yamdu gives you so many options for relevant film production workflow. All of the documents and tasks and breakdowns that go into a production are all in one place.
Cons
I don't like the home page view, its a little confusing and doesn't link me to where I want to go usually

Overall I’m very happy with the software. It’s what I’ve been hoping to see someone make since the demise of Production Minds.
Pros
The feature set you receive even at the lowest tiered plan is impressive! How those features integrate with each other allows the pre production process move much more efficiently than using multiple tools and antiquated methods.
Cons
I don’t like that you have to have a higher tiered plan in order to retain contacts through multiple projects. So for smaller productions and smaller companies this means you have to re-enter all the crew and cast information with those who regularly work with your production. Would love to see that changed or even pay a small monthly fee to retain that data.

i implemented Yamdu on severall projects - feature films, documentaries and tv series, as a producer or production manager. i myself am satisfied, but fact is there's still missing pieces that dont allow it to become a standard
Pros
The sofware is made by and for film professionals so it basically doesn't lack any features anyone might want presently while working on a large scale audiovisual production. all the modules are interconnected and able to aggregate the data in different formats
Cons
its a bit to modern, making it very unappealing to the old school film crews who see it as a game and not as a tool. the name itself is a good illustration of that problem

Finally, An Effective Scheduling and Tracking Tool for Producers

Biggest benefit for me has been in scheduling and call sheets. That alone makes Yamdu worth having. There are sections I did not use, but that I could see would be very useful for departments in larger productions.
Pros
The integration of information (crew, staff, locations, talent, etc...) with scheduling is incredibly efficient. Making call sheets is incredibly easy as all the information is always available, auto-populates, and can be conveniently formatted. The virtual strip charts are also very easy to use and provide a very fast way to organize shoot days.
Cons
It was a little hard to figure out the exact workflow at the beginning, but once I understood how the various sections relate it got much easier. The software is very thorough and as every production is a little different, it does require some thinking and planning at the beginning. The staff is very helpful and provides a good orientation that helps a lot. Support is extremely responsive -- there is a comment box that you can activate anytime and drop a note, which makes it easy for users to get help. Very good system. Also does a great job importing scripts.

Reviewed on 2022/11/11
Pros
I really like the task management and the connection between the different departments. It's easy to keep track with the different tasks and to check which one needs to be done next etc..I did really enjoy the connectivity between the different departments and the tools to keep track of all the different things.
Cons
Sometimes it's a kind of tricky to know which change in which tap has to be done to get the result you want to have, but after some time you understand the workflow, and it gets easier to work around some of the small issues. Sometimes the accuracy of the breakdown function gets a bit in the way. As an example: If you break down the costume and you highlight some of the things which are special about a particular scene, only those are shown in the call sheet. All the basic stuff (the normal costume, which isn't highlighted again in the scene) isn't on the call sheet. Sometimes that can get a bit confusing and time consuming while preparing the call sheet.
