Xero
WorkflowMax is very well suited for a business that wants to track time billed by project, to have an easy way to generate invoices for those projects, and to keep track of overall productivity and invoice status. I imagine it can also be adapted to different types of businesses that deal in goods rather than services and time. I am not sure for which scenarios or businesses the program is not appropriate.

Xero
  • You can customize the notifications and this has helped us enormously to schedule dates that we overlooked. Also the templates are customizable which gives the company its own branding on its reports.
  • It is integrated with the Xero platform which makes it very useful to streamline the processes of billing, accounts payable, accounts receivable, petty cash flow and all the accounting and administrative area.
  • It also has a very complete mobile version, where we can be present and monitor the progress of projects in real time, no matter where we are.

Cons

Xero
  • Currently the timesheet function allows staff to input time for overlapping periods which can cause some headaches when it comes to payroll and invoicing. We understand this is being addressed.
  • The amount of flexibility in the product can create some challenges when setting up the jobs database at the onset. It is a daunting challenge but worthwhile when completed correctly and rolled out across the firm. Adding new jobs is much easier.
  • No search function to find a specific job, you have to scroll through all jobs allocated to you.

Decide how to breakdown your ongoing jobs - are they monthly recurring or annual broken into chunks? What are you going to give clients i.e. how will your proposals and invoices look?

WorkflowMax is much much easier than Streamtime, much more affordable and easier to try out and see if it meets your needs. Streamtime is a great comprehensive product but we lost a year's subscription in investment because we couldn't get answers to the support questions we needed and they had a no refund policy!

Projectworks Screenshots

Screenshot of a visualization that helps to understand capacity, who is available, and when more staff will be needed for work coming down the pipeline. Tag and filter staff by skills and certifications to help make the right staffing decisions.Screenshot of an example timesheet built for professional services firms. The timecode setup is flexible, to enable users to track how time is spent on projects at any level of detail.Screenshot of the interface for tracking project financials in real-time. This helps prevent projects from going over budget by always knowing their current financial status.Screenshot of a display showing how much of the budget has been burned through actual time spent, as well as what is planned. This lets users know when a project is going over budget. These forecasts can be used to set a billing schedule for fixed-price projects, and a percentage mode to support percentage-based billing. Invoicing runs can be started from the forecasts screen.Screenshot of an example invoice, which can be based on a timesheet (time and material / T&M), fixed price engagements, or percentage-based billing. It integrates with accounting systems.Screenshot of where to track actuals and see where a project will land against the project budget.
