Integration with accounting software

Pros

Excellent UI that is easy to use. All features are a breeze.
Because of the depth at which it has data, it can be used very well.
Its integration with other ERP software is also possible for better analysis.

Great for project and task assignments, project workflow and communications.
Solid web-based platform that doesn't require software downloads, also includes great mobile platform.
Great reporting tools for managing billing, estimating, project workflow and other essential project details.
Allows for both the agency and its clients to interact on a single platform using role-specific permissions.

Cons

Unfortunately, usability is a major issue at times. I hear complaints about dropped network traffic, and it's not our infrastructure.
The interface is confusing. We have to train new employees with a lot of detailed instructions which shouldn't be necessary.
We have had to pay for any support on the above issues.

Individual comments cannot be linked to. This makes it more difficult to reference a comment or question.
Unnecessary features cannot be turned off. Since we use it primarily for communication, it would be ideal to turn off tasks etc. that are not needed or be able to move discussions as the first screen.
There isn't an easy way to set up different projects under the same client.

The support team is responsive to requests and their annual support fees are reasonable. Honestly, we don't have to contact them much. Updates happen automatically and the platform is very solid and does not require a lot of support. Documentation is good and the platform is easy to learn.

Alternatives Considered

24SevenOffice has its own pros and cons just like any other software. It is a great software for an organization to do project management or financial management. It stacks up very competitively against others and is probably in the top 3. the UI that is offered by this software surpasses all the others that I have used and/or mentioned above. It is a breeze to understand most parts of the software by yourself. I think in terms of support there could be some improvement that can be possible and will result in much better feedback from its clients. Overall I give it a great rating in terms of usability and capability to handle the majority of business management, project management, and financial management features.

I have used multiple project management platforms such as ActiveCollab, JIRA, Trello, etc. Trello has great visualization with their (Kanban Board) board system and support drag and drop functionality for managing tasks. ActiveCollab, however, does not have the fancy visualization, but is very powerful when it comes to ticketing, task management, task delegation, time tracking, etc.

Return on Investment

We were using a fairly similar program from an ROI perspective previously so I can't say it's had a big effect.
That said the network issues represent lost hours/money.
The added training is also expensive.

It has saved us a TON of money (literally thousands) in project management software.
It has helped us gain clients because we can show them the template of what they will see and give them access to it. When others don't have software that does this.
Positive impact on ROI based on the time it's saving compared to our previous PM software.
