WorkflowMax for the win

WorkflowMax is used for all our invoicing, timesheet keeping and lead tracking. It integrates seamlessly with Xero. I'm also a WorkflowMax consultant and reseller.
  • Invoice integration with Xero
  • Easy to keep track of complex jobs over time
  • Makes sure you don't lose track of billing
Cons
  • Setting up job templates can be confusing
  • Templates for invoicing and purchase orders are tied to Microsoft Office which seems so unnecessary in an open age.
Timesheets and cost management take some care and time. Don't expect this is an automatic process.

Workflow Max is primarily being used by our firm to track potential and active jobs, establish staffing forecasting, collect staff timesheets, and issue accurate invoices. It has proven to be a very functional, reliable, and easy to engage with software solution to a series of difficult problems.
  • Allows for fairly simple or elaborate project forecasting depending on the complexity of the job. This allows us to track time by a single project or multiple phases.
  • Time keeping and coordination with invoicing software has increased our firm's ability to issue timely and accurate invoices to clients. Has ability to break down projects in numerous ways to meet the needs of our various clients. This means we can invoice by project, phase, milestone, or dollar increments.
  • Interface is clean and easy to follow. The easier it is to use the fewer mistakes that are made when entering information. This is greatly appreciated.
Cons
  • 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.
WorkflowMax is a good solution for the architecture and design profession in that it allows for multiple ways to track a project, apply time to a project, and invoice against a project. The ability to do staffing forecasting and future planning fills a need that most firms in this profession require.

WorkflowMax - The Only Project Management Program You Need

We're just a small company so only a few people use WorkflowMax, but everybody who does agrees that it is really user friendly. Personally, it makes my job as admin asst extremely easy and invoicing has become a breeze! Also the reporting side of WorkflowMax allows me to see at a glance just what payments are outstanding, and what purchase orders still need to be approved by the client. I also particularly like the simple integration WorkflowMax has with my accounting package, Xero.
  • Reporting - enables users to see at a glance exactly what is outstanding, what jobs are open, and what action is required on each particular project
  • Invoicing - once the template has been set up invoicing is extremely easy to do
  • Timesheets - individual users can input their own timesheets and this information carries over automatically into invoices. Makes my job so much easier!
Cons
  • When I open WorkflowMax I always go straight away to the Jobs / Jobs section. It would be useful if I could set this up as a "default"
  • When initially setting up WorkflowMax I imported all my contacts from Xero - only to realise that I didn't really need them all. I can only delete one client/supplier at a time and it would be so much easier if I could nominate a group deletion
  • Report Builder - when creating new reports you can only use fields that are relevant to the report you're trying to create, ie a Job report only has job fields. It would be useful if the fields could be expanded to include all areas (ie jobs, invoices, quotes, etc) so that a totally customised report can be built
We chose WorkflowMax because we needed a program that allowed us to track several separate jobs at one time. The timesheets are important for our on-the-road consultants. And it was important that the program connected seamlessly with Xero.

Some key questions to ask:
Do you need to track time?
Do you have projects that need to be accessed by different employees/clients/suppliers?
Do you need a fully customisable reporting suite?

Can even herd cats.

We use WorkflowMax for every aspect of our jobs other than strategy and design. We use it to open new jobs, allocate staff and costs as well as timings. We use the system to traffic the work and ensure we meet deadlines. In addition we upload costs, issue estimates and purchase orders and raise invoices. Our accountant then exports these invoices seamlessly into MYOB. It is a very useful tool for us and provides a structure to our business that all staff adhere to.
  • Clear and easy to use which helps - so very little resistance from staff to utilise the functions
  • Saves a huge amount of time from a functional management perspective
  • Allows you to get a quick overview of where your business is at and where the workflow crunches are occurring
Cons
  • Would like less steps between the raising of invoices and email functionality
  • Would like the ability to issue credit notes as well as invoices
  • Would like the ability to fully edit an invoice after it has been issued ( prior to exporting)
It is well suited to managing workflow through the agency. However as far as invoices are concerned we do have a number of invoices that are based on a rate card and so do repeat every month and I am sure many ad agencies have these types of invoices. As these are associated with a specific job #, they need to be raised against this job # so I cannot just copy an invoice ( I have tried to do this in the past and it has not worked). I would like to be asked the following: When I create an invoice: Choose a template? This could be one of my options - I would then set up a number of templates for these repeating invoices - I presume I would be offered a drop down menu or similar to choose from.

WorkflowMax - A complex package that is surprisingly easy to use!

We are using WorkflowMax to create quotes, enter jobs as they come in, add expenses, and log hours and tasks by multiple users. We also use it to store back up information and create detailed invoices for our clients.
  • WorkflowMax is a powerful application (or set of modules) which streamlines several processes into one.
  • From job data to invoicing to payroll we have the ultimate control.
  • Links seamlessly with Xero for our accounting.
Cons
  • I would like somewhere (client folders) I can keep my quotes so I can quickly access them for data from invoiced jobs. I don't want just one giant list.
I'm sure this depends on the company and what they want. Possibly small one man businesses may find it too expensive?
