Paymo vs. Redbooth

Well suited: tracking time, making notes to share with clients, live reporting. Less so: tracking and bookkeeping - they don't market it as a bookkeeping app, though they do allow for invoicing through it. Still, my needs are such that I use a separate app for tracking receipts against a project and then invoicing clients.

It’s nice to be able just instantly to have a meeting. I open a session and can send off the link to anyone I need to attend. Pretty instantaneous. I can also schedule meetings in advance and send out notifications and invitations. I’m able to use the same link over and over, which is helpful too.

• Time tracking. As long as you set up everything correctly on the front end, you don't have to think about it again and it will run in the background.
• Job management. Organizes jobs intuitively and can easily archive jobs.
• Support. If you ever have an issue or questions, they have a chat feature and will usually respond in a couple hours.

• Tracking hours worked is amazing. Easy to export to CSV.
• Assigning coworkers to tasks that they are responsible for.
• Color coordinating workspaces, this is how we manage our accounts. We all have different colours for our own accounts.

• The main area for improvement is exportability of data. It's tough to get full data out of Paymo. You can export most things in CSV format, but if you were to start with Paymo and want to switch to another project management and accounting platform, there would be substantial manual effort involved.
• There also aren't as many integrations for Paymo as some of the more mainstream project management suites. This isn't necessarily Paymo's fault. It's just a function of them still being one of the "little guys." Something to be aware of before you select this platform though.

• The dashboard takes a few minutes to get used to.

It is a complete, a bit overambitious app but with many features that are needed. I didn't need most of the features but managed to make the most of the two I was using. Also, I think it is a well-rounded app and I am considering moving some team collab there.

Good! Fast, excellent, speedy responses. They always wanted to know why and how they could improve on something (good on receiving feedback, too). Not that they were much needed, but my limited experience with them is good; they were really keen to understand what the problem was really about and how they could help with it.

I’ve never actually used their support - I think that in and of itself says something about the product.

Similar in almost all project management aspects... Paymo seems to have a slight edge in invoicing and reporting. They are also adding new features regularly so that (in our opinion) makes the investment worth it. Customer support has also been terrific. Easy onboarding process and we found this solution the easiest to get started doing actual work with.

Redbooth, in my opinion, blows all of these out of the water. But, its workflow was best for our company and the way we work. Not to say Basecamp or Asana are bad by any means, but the way that Redbooth works and how we think mesh really well together. I think all have great offerings but nothing seems as intuitive or extensive as Redbooth. They really push to create the best environment that is beautiful, and easy to use.
