Likelihood to Recommend To manage the workflows of our business, we used a number of tools before we began using Flowlu. It combines CRM, project & task management, team communication, invoicing, and account management into a single tool. We are able to save a lot of time and effort by using this all-in-one solution.
Read full review As a project management tool, especially with more straightforward timelines and components, ProjectLibre is a great alternative to some of the costly PM software tools. I have managed many projects with both
MS Project and ProjectLibre, and I think ProjectLibre is a great alternative, especially when I've worked in regions of the world where users cannot afford other PM tools.
Read full review Pros The system of adding only the features you need by installing as separated modules makes it easy to learn without being overwhelmed by the lots of features. I really like its structure and clear interface. Not wasting much time by searching for the right buttons and settings. Looks like the developers use their own tool for everyday work Flowlu offers a custom domain option to fully integrate fully it into our company toolbox. This helps offering a seamless experience for our clients. The elaborated invoice module was the final argument for us to switch to Flowlu. Read full review ProjectLibre is great for project management. It allows us to establish milestones and timeline planning for projects. It allows us to stay organized among multiple projects. It is extremely simple to use with a simple interface. It takes little time to plan out a project with key dates and provides a nice graphic. Read full review Cons Flowlu should allow user to import their own invoice into app Fellow should have their own email marketing system It should integrate woo-commerce, a big e-commerce platform on WordPress. This will support users will in managing and sending emails to their customers. Read full review Customer service is not there - I understand that the product is open source but some kind of forum with FAQs, etc. can come in handy App crashes at time for no reason. There have been instances where you try to create a new task and all the diagrams and other items get messed up Read full review Likelihood to Renew I have found Flowlu while searching [for] a collaborative tool for a friend's non-profit organization. As I read the description and made a trial test, I fell in love with the tool. So we are definitely going to renew. Not only because the delivered solutions are great but also because Flowlu's roadmap seems very [promising].
Read full review Usability They have a great onboarding checklist and if you follow it you will be able to use the software. That is easy to use in my book. Flowlu has also the ability to turn on and off apps that you use or not which makes it tailored to the business needs.
Read full review Support Rating Great Support normally they respond in a few hours, which is very good, the knowledge base is good and the facebook groups are also very responsive. We are finding many videos online which are explaining Flowlu more and more daily.
Read full review There are a lot of discussions online about it, and a customer addition based manual. While that can lead to some confusion, I am not the kind of person who likes talking on the phone. So it is easier to go online with ProjectLibre!
Read full review Alternatives Considered Flowlu is easier to use and has more features, with more coming.
ClickUp feels like it's more 'open' for any type of business with a lot of customization, whereas Flowlu feels like it was created for niches like my own, yet it can easily and quickly be customized for any type of business
Read full review We decided to go with ProjectLibre because it is a free tool and there is a great community that supports us in case there are any questions or concerns about the software. This has allowed us to be able to invest time without having to worry about licensing costs or anything else.
Read full review Return on Investment Time invested in learning the app was huge, there's no go-to resource center and currently their knowledge is scattered (YouTube videos, Knowledge Base, API docs etc) We are able to cancel subscriptions of some of the other CRM and project management apps as the needs are covered by Flowlu There's a significant productivity boost after learning the app but this is not quite measurable just yet Read full review ProjectLibre is free so it has allowed us to collaborate on MS Project files for users that run a Mac or Linux machine Learning curve is minimal since it so closely resembles MS Project Not all MS Project features (especially the newer editions) are present but it's best for users that are not the primary PM to user ProjectLibre.
