Case Study: Boiler Room achieves streamlined project organization and accurate estimates with Toggl Plan

How Boiler Room's production team manages a dozen projects at once

Boiler Room, the online music platform that brings underground music to the masses, relied on spreadsheets to coordinate studio work until studio manager Chanel Kennedy joined a team already using Toggl Plan. Facing coordination across 35 headquarters staff, 15 global employees and numerous freelancers, Boiler Room needed a clearer, scalable way to organize briefs, deadlines and on-site crews.

Toggl Plan provided project timelines, deadline allocation and an automated weekly digest so teams of designers, photographers, videographers and editors can see and update tasks — handling about 10 briefs at a time. The tool lets designers review past work to create more accurate estimates, empowers employees to reorder and check off tasks, and overall added structure, reduced chaos and improved scheduling and productivity at Boiler Room.
