  • It is most useable through a full web browser on your computer. but it also has great smartphone app which is just having a major upgrade. I am currently beta testing it and it will transform my ability to keep things up to date while on the go.
  • It has a great sales leads modules which makes it really easy to see the volume and value of leads at each stage of the sales process.
  • It gives simple visibility on project progress, both percentage completion and financially.
  • The one key issue that it doesn't solve is resource utilisation. You are able to add the number of hours that each "to do" will take but you can't allocate that to an employee and then aggregate all that up to show how much capacity you are using or have left.
  • One if its great benefits is its flexibility but that is also a drawback because there are multiple ways to do the same thing. This means that to ensure consistency across all employees having your own business procedures on how to use WORKetc is vital.
  • Some of the financial processes don't fully reflect UK practice currently. For instance it doesn't deal with VAT on expenditure well. However we have been assured that this is being resolved.

  • Cloud access - including mobile devices
  • Gantt Charts for managing timelines of projects - including templated projects
  • Its great for delivery of emails and files to clients - very streamlined.
  • I think the billing/invoicing system can be improved further - as well as integration to Freshbooks - currently Xero and QuickBooks are supported.
  • I think the email marketing system with autoresponders could add another string to the bow of WorkETC - currently it's reasonably basic
  • Tags management for contacts and projects could be explained and done a bit better.

  • Timesheet management is slick and simple.
  • Integration with email systems (Outlook, Gmail) is comprehensive.
  • The company is constantly improving the product, listens and responds to customer concerns.
  • Mobile apps.
  • Android apps could be improved (which I believe they are currently under development)

  • Google apps integration - We use Google docs and Gmail heavily within our organization and having a tight integration between Gmail and Google docs has been very handy.
  • Expense reporting - Now we can create projects to track employee hours and expenses to a customer and easily export into our accounting software. Being able to set up reoccurring expenses is a nice feature as well.
  • Support Tickets - Having the support system integrated with the CRM is great sales tool as well as a support tool. Account managers can now easily get a snapshot of what is going on with their accounts and avoid getting blindsided by unknown customer issues.
  • I would like to see some more functionality in the mobile app but I know thy will get there. The core is there.
  • WORKetc has made some great improvements to UI over the past 2 years which is where I would say they were weakest. They have improved drastically but sometimes the UI can get confusing to certain users because there is so much flexibility in the way it can be used. It seems they have gotten the point and have been making the UI simpler over time.

  • Client Centric, organizes everything and links back to each client
  • Support suite manages all of our support needs and keeps them organized and easy to find
  • Easy to use. New users are quick to learn and start using right away.
  • The only feature request I have right now is to add a merge capability to the support desk, they have it for other areas like contacts but not support. We have submitted a request and the WORKetc team has been great about follow up.

  • Integration of all business processes means no more excel spreadsheets to keep track of projects, tasks, sales leads, billing, and so on, it means that is all in one place available to anyone in the company and captured in easily with the email integration tool, or the mobile app.
  • Continous improvements
  • Great support
  • Social networks integration
  • More stencils for business processes
  • Better email campaigns (i.e. integration with mail chimp)

  • Expenses
  • Billable Items
  • Invoicing
  • Reports
  • Awesome Support
  • Continued growth of the software
  • Has a mobile app
  • Integration with Gmail Apps
  • Highly recommended for businesses that need to manage client contacts, accounting, service or project management and lead generation.
  • The main business problem solved was finding an all-in-one business management tool. There are other tools out there but mainly for one primary reason. Whether if it's invoicing, project management or CRM. WorkETC provides all the tools you need that almost any business can use. WorkETC provides a great team and client/contact interaction. Another problem that WorkETC has solved is finding a tool that can be used anywhere, with of course internet connection.
  • Better quoting system which is under developmen
  • A more robust mobile platform would be a plus.
