Tour Management Software Compared
Tour management software keeps a tour's dates, day sheets, travel, money and crew in one place so the tour manager isn't living in spreadsheets. Here is how four of the best-known tools line up.

Questions
Which tour management software handles settlements and per diem?
ATOM Interstate does both: settlements for every deal, start to finish, including cross-collateral runs, and per diem runs crew sign on their phones. Master Tour's help docs show basic settlement fields and a per diem field on each person. Daysheets and Artist Growth don't state settlement math or per diem on their sites.
Which tour management apps work offline?
ATOM keeps working without signal on web, iPhone and Mac and shows both versions when edits collide. Master Tour and Daysheets state offline editing. Artist Growth's site doesn't state it.
Is there free tour management software?
ATOM Community and ATOM's free tools (settlement worksheet, per diem calculator, tour budget, crew rate calculator) are free, the tools with no login. Daysheets has a free plan for up to 5 people per tour, Master Tour's crew app is free, and Artist Growth offers a 14-day free trial.
