Planner by Tempo on Cloud vs on Data Center
Planner by Tempo on Cloud is different from Data Center in terms of design and performance. Resource Planning provides daily tasks planning on both platforms. Classic legacy planning is retained on Data Center for team capacity and program capacity planning, whereas Team planning on epics is provided on Cloud for medium and long-term team planning.
Similarities:
On both host platforms, users can plan daily tasks and Project Managers or team leads can plan for teams in the Resource Planning view.
Planner uses the same core features, Accounts and Teams, and provides Planned Time Reports and Planned vs Actual Reports on both Cloud and Data Center.
Admins can enable Plan Approvals in Tempo Settings on Cloud and in Manage apps on Data Center.
Tempo admins can configure Planner to “Use start and end times when planning time”.
Differences:

Here’s some more details on each of these options:
On both Cloud and Data Center, Planner has Generic Resources as a placeholder for future resource planning. They show up in the reports and exports on Cloud, but are not currently on Data Center.
Legacy Capacity Report is available on both platforms with a minor difference: commitment % is calculated on Data Center, but not on Cloud. Effective team size is available only on Data Center. The timeframe can be daily/weekly/monthly/quarterly on Data Center, but is only monthly on Cloud.
Repeated plans on Cloud can be generated weekly or bi-weekly in the Resource Planning view; on Data Center, they can be generated weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly in the Team Timeline.
Project managers can generate Team-scoped user plans in the Team Planning view on Cloud. On Data Center, they can generate Team Plans at the user level and at the Team level in the Team Timeline.
Tempo Mobile for Cloud and Tempo Mobile for Data Center are not the same apps in the Android/Apple iOS, but all the features are the same except for the login methods.
