    Ignition
    Ignition (initially called Practice Ignition) performs quite well at proposal building, contract development, tracking and invoicing, payment and collections. The only issues where I see Ignition not being a good fit is in smaller firms that require a more feature rich plan. A perfect example is a solo firm has a limited number of proposals they can activate, and would have to spend extra for additional features like multiple e-signatures.

    If you are using Office365 and it is within your budget, utilizing SmartCloud Connect as an interface with a CRM is a no-brainer. It remains hidden when Outlook opens, but with an email selected you can open it with a single click. It then allows you to associate the email and even attachments with email addresses that were included in the to, cc, or from sections of the email. It's a very intuitive user interface and saves time in email tracking.

    Pros
    Ignition
    • Automatic Payments: You set up a proposal to collect payments once and you don't have to worry about bugging the client for payment every month.
    • Amazing support: I have always received answers from the support team within the same day. They are very patient and understanding.
    • Integrates with Xero: It integrates with our accounting software, making reporting faster.

    Cons
    Ignition
    • The charge back process is messy and not transparent enough. When there is a charge back, PI deducts the amount from other payments settling on the same day, and does not provide a break down of the amounts. This makes it impossible to track without getting help from support.
    • PI should send email alerts monthly (or at some interval determined by user) for expiring engagements.
    • PI should allow the client to make service selections -- we should be able to offer 2 or 3 options under a service offering, and the client chooses and sees the impact on monthly/annual pricing.
    • PI should allow for more than 2 templates (Business and Individual).
    • PI should integrate with Jet Pack Workflow to automate the creation of new jobs once a proposal is approved.

    • Sometimes my plugin gets disconnected from my Gmail. This needs to be fixed.

    Because of the issues we have been having regarding connectivity and instability of the google extension. At some point if this is not handled we may have to find a new vendor to support our needs

    Usability
    Ignition
    The Ignition product is quite usable for the average user. The app has preloaded templates that can get even new-hires to navigate the software and set up proposals. The only area where I see the Ignition product lacking is the additional fees smaller firms may have to pay to get the full feature advantages of the product.

    Sometimes they ask for way to much information. They need screenshots, full event names, date and times events were set (Which can be very difficult when you have a reoccurring meeting that was originally set years ago)

    You aren't able to customize the design of the proposal, but it surpases everything we have ever tried. It's easy to use and quick to learn.

    Out of all the other utilities we've used, SmartCloud connect seems to be the most stable. The other interfaces sometimes caused glitchy integrations with Outlook, requiring a user to restart the add-in to restore functionality, but so far that has not been the case with SmartCloud Connect. SmartCloud connect also allows you to connect to different CRM's instead of just one, which means you can still use it when migrating between CRM's.
