Simpro vs. zigihub

Simpro is well suited for job and team management, tracking inventory and the workflow is very logical. The mobile app for our field technicians works very well to clock on and off and then being in a position to report to a customer based on factual information has made invoicing a breeze! Reporting can be a bit frustrating especially on materials used on different cost centre numbers as you can only specify a job number, but not a cost centre number.

1. It helps automate your marketing campaigns - send emails, does automated follow-up, creates leads directly into the CRM
2. Helps you track the performance of your marketing campaign
3. Its a cost-effective tool
4. Their integration with salesforce and Hubspot is missing, will require you to do it manually
5. Their email editor is quite basic with many must-have designing features missing

• Billing: straight from a closed, complete job. Carries overall equipment, hours, takes one click to bill.
• simPRO retains notes on all emails; notes can be entered by anyone to track communication with clients.

• The platform navigation is very smooth.
• Easily switch from CRM to Marketing Automation tool
• I like the featured when the leads goes directly into CRM if you have run the email campaign from the tool or anyone had subscribed to the blogs.

• Ability to create leave forms for the employees (to my best knowledge, this doesn't exist).
• Ability to color code jobs, quotes by criticality.
• Assign status to equipment (e.g. "ordered"; "arrived").

Incentivized

• The email editor tool is very basic
• You cannot templatize your outreach with out-of-the-box designing
• Integrations with Salesforce and Hubspot is missing

As mentioned before, materials reporting could use some work as one cannot report by cost centre number, only by job number. It makes it difficult with large jobs with multiple cost centre numbers to easily extract information for reporting. Other than that the system is user friendly and easy to understand.

1. Has a lot of scope for improvement in terms of email editor and lead management
2. Out-of-the-box reporting features should also be made available
3. Should provide integration with other software

5. The tool can be made a little faster to operate
6. Workflows, land page, and form options can be improved

It is a great option for solar project management. It needs some improvements for real-time one-page reports, inventory management, scheduling and custom views. I believe these will come because they listen to their customers. I would also like to see some better training and not be expected to pay out of pocket for it.

The customer support team is active and reverts promptly to support requirements. However, most of the requirements takes a lot of time to get fixed.

monday.com was easier to set up and you can create boards with loads of subtasks which helps manage a project. Also, the ability to integrate with google was much better as we could link it to the calendar and also store documents that the engineers could see easier onsite. Overall we could make monday.com work better for our business based on how we are set up but simPRO will be great for other businesses with more specific needs.
