Promys serves as the backbone to our operations and I can’t imagine where we would be without it.
Promys ties all the aspects of the sales cycle together from opportunity to invoice. The reporting features are very flexible including the standard reports and the ability to export a variety of information from the multi-functional SO Items Processing screen. Promys applies edits that enforce good business practices.
CONSThere are so many features in Promys that it can be hard to remember how to use a feature that is used only occasionally. However, the support staff is very quick to respond and retrain when needed.

Promys PSA software review
The software has had good buy in from our team. We are actively quoting, managing projects, managing field services and time sheets with the application. Promys' service and support has been exceptional.
PROSPromys is a complete business process software fully integrated with our accounting package.
CONSReporting improvments are on my wish list.
Reason for choosing PROMYS
It checked of the most boxes as compared to our pain points.
Reasons for switching to PROMYS
Salesforce handled Sales well but did not inherently offer the other business tools we rely on from Promys.

A solid system for the IT VAR space
Visibility, reporting, accuracy of information have all improved. We're able to get much better information faster.
PROSHaving worked at other large IT VARs in the Canadian market I've used a number of different systems, each with benefits and flaws. Promys seems to have solutions and the ability to manage all of these concerns in a single system from customer account creation to opportunity management to quote and order, all linked together for visibility and information flow. In a growing business this visibility has been as huge help in keeping things flowing as the company scales while allowing us to have better control of our opportunity visibility and backlog management. One of the things I like best is that the Promys team is constantly accepting feedback and adding new features to make things better for their customers across the board. They helped us create a single step part creation/quote import that was a major upgrade to the system and took the time to understand our needs. This feature has been rolled out to all customers now and has been a huge time saver and helped with system adoption across our organization. Since then, we've continued to send over suggestions on how to make things easier and they add it to their development list and roll it out with the regular updates.
CONSSome of the formats for quotes are hard coded into the system, it would be nice to customize them a little. The onboarding into QB Online took a little longer to sort out to make sure things are running through smoothly.
Reason for choosing PROMYS
Price point, ease of working with the Promys team.

Promys PSA is a great replacement for Salesforce, Remedy (Help Desk) and MS Project
Since implementing Promys we can quote more competitively, mange projects and managed service contracts more profitably and turn around customer support issues more quickly.
PROSBefore Promys PSA we had Salesforce.com for CRM & quoting, Remedy for Help Desk and PM’s used MS Project or Excel spreadsheets. The disconnects between those software products meant we were constantly re-keying data and having to pull data from multiple systems to create management reports, which always seemed out of date. It was difficult to get good visibility into Job Costing, Managed Service Contract profitability or cycle lessons learned from one department to another. Promys brought all of those modules and data together in one system, which has made our employees much more efficient and effective. Promys PSA has given our management team great visibility into line of business profitability and profitability leaks.
CONSThe Great Plains integration took a little longer than we had hoped, but now that it's up and running it's a very robust integration.

Promys helps me run my business more profitably. Customer Support is outstanding.
Promys PSA has made it much easier for my team to stay on top of sales, project delivery, managed services/support contracts and customer support issues. Promys PSA has given me better visibility and controls to manage the profitability of my business.
PROSPrior to implementing Promys PSA our biggest challenge was the lack of visibility and coordination between departments. Having several different disconnected business software solutions resulted in a constant Easter egg hunt for the most current data on billable time, managed services contract profitability, renewal dates and project profitability. Coordinating equipment, software and service delivery was especially complicated. Tracking all this data between different systems and in spreadsheets was time consuming and stressful for the employees and management. The Promys PSA solution captures and manages all of that information in one integrated and easy to use solution. Promys PSA has made it much easier for my team to stay on top of sales, project delivery, managed services/support contracts and customer support issues. Promys PSA has given me better visibility and controls to manage the profitability of my business.
CONSInstallation took a little longer than expected. But the Promys implementation and support teams are very responsive.

Much more intuitive user interface than Connectwise & Autotask, far superior implementation process.
Improved visibility, efficiency and effectiveness of our business.
PROSWe tried Connectwise at one point. I thought the interface was really poor, with far too much crammed on the screen. I think Autotask has the same problem. Promys recently re-developed their entire PSA solution from scratch using that latest cloud technology and it really shows in the user interface, screen responsiveness and the comprehensiveness of their PSA functionality, especially in areas like Managed Services Contract profitability tracking. We also liked how Promys does all the heavy lifting regarding gathering our requirements and configuring Promys to meet our needs, to make sure we're using all of the capabilities of our new PSA software.
CONSImplementation approach was great, best practice sharing was very beneficial, did take a little longer to implement than expected.

Very happy with Promys PSA
Promys will allow us to bill more quickly and accurately, get better visibility into project profitability and provide an even higher level of customer service.
PROSWe selected the Promys PSA business software in order to reduce the amount of time our managers and employees spent chasing down data, which will allow us to bill more quickly and accurately, get better visibility into project profitability and provide an even higher level of customer service. The Promys fixed fee implementation approach is just as impressive as their software. The Promys implementation team is exceptionally patient and helpful and many of their best practice suggestions have made our business processes even better.
CONSThere are a few things I'd like to differently but almost all of it is making our business processes better - very satisfied so far.

PROMYS is in a different class compared to traditional PSA software
In another life I was a power user of one of the more heavily marketed PSA's, so I'm very familiar with that tool's capabilities. We did a very deep dive evaluating PROMYS compared to several other solutions. It was clear very early in the evaluation, that for a Cisco Gold partner our size, PROMYS was a far better fit than traditional PSA's. PROMYS is significantly stronger from a forecasting & planning perspective and provides far better visibility into mid-project profitability. Margin and profitability reporting are in a completely different class. PROMYS didn't just "win" our PSA evaluation, for a business our size, the traditional PSA's weren't even options any more.
PROSFantastic margin reporting and analytics across projects, customers and products Very strong Project Management and Labor Analysis capabilities Good Help Desk and Service Contract management functionality Proactive customer support Very structured implementation approach that drove industry best practices and user adoption
CONSIntegration with Sage X3 is very strong, but took slightly longer than expected Initially it was hard to get our executive team to look at PROMYS because it's less well known than the big two PSA's.

PROMYS PSA is comprehensive and easy to use
Several Concordis Solutions Inc. executives had previously worked for a large Cisco Gold partner using PROMYS, so we were familiar with how comprehensive the PROMYS' functionality is, which will be important to support our aggressive growth plans. Equally important is that PROMYS is very easy to use and all the modules share data, which makes PROMYS very efficient for a smaller company where people are wearing multiple hats. Fast growth is expensive and customer service will be the key to our growing quickly, so the PROMYS combination of strong forecasting, robust project management and extensive profitability analytics, are going to be crucial in providing our executive team with the information we'll need to keep existing customers happy and to make our growth investment decisions. We had seen firsthand with the Cisco gold partner what an impact robust comprehensive business software like PROMYS could have on a company's aggressive growth strategy and we weren't willing to take a step backwards when we started our own business. We know that no matter how quickly we grow we won't outgrow the PROMYS PSA business software.

PROMYS PSA lives up to it's promise
We've been on the PROMYS PSA software for a year now and the customer support has been fantastic. the support team is responsive, knowledgeable and very proactive in ensuring we're getting most out of the software functionality. PROMYS has seamless integration between their CRM, Opportunity, Quotation and Sales Order, PM and Help Desk modules. This not only virtualy elminates re-keying info, it provides management with excellent real-time visibility into all aspects of the business. I was very impressed by the PROMYS implementation methodology. The business consultants we worked with were knowledgeable and experienced. They engaged with the key players in my organization to understand our company and tailored the PROMYS configuration to our specific needs.
PROSSupport is responsive and knowledgeable Integration between modules is excellent Reporting provides very good visibility into the business Implementation approach introduced best practices Proactive education about new functionality

Promys is a perfect fit for a Cisco Gold partner
Promys consolidated Sales, Order Fulfillment, Project Management, Help Desk, Managed Services & Support Agreements into a single solution. This allows us to have better visibility into the business and respond to changes in a more coordinated way.
PROSIntuitive solution with little training. Solid support from the Promys team with rapid response and resolution of issues as they arise. Very flexible in resolving unique issues as they arise.
CONSAs a cloud based solution it could be faster for large look-ups, but performance is very good otherwise.

Promys is more advanced PSA software
After evaluating the traditional PSA business software vendors, it's clear that PROMYS is one of the more advanced PSA's in the market. Promys just seemed a lot more intuitive and easier to use for our team, while at the same time being more comprehensive. We wanted to select a PSA business software solution that was based on current technology, something that we wouldn't outgrow 2-3 years from now.
PROSThe fact that they don't change extra for quoting, mobile, purchasing, or e-mail and calendar integration was a big plus.
CONSWhen implementing new PSA/business software, it's easy to fall into the trap of just automating how you do things now. Promys was very helpful in assisting us in re-examining some of our business processes vs. industry best practices, but it did take some time and effort to implement those changes.

Switching from Connectwise to Promys was a great decision. Promys customer support is outstanding.
Streamlined our business processes, consolidated data, provided better visibility & reporting, eliminated re-keying.
PROS"We initially selected Connectwise, but were not satisfied with the company's support and implementation processes. Just as we need to understand our customers processes to help them optimize where possible, we wanted a PSA software partner who would take the time to learn our business processes, perform the configuration work for us and implement the software in a way that would maximize industry best practices to ensure we got the most out of our PSA software investment. In short, we wanted to focus on rapidly growing our business, not on our business software implementation. Promys is clearly state of the art cloud based PSA software, but the key differentiator was their implementation methodology which was a much more hands on and value added approach."
CONSThe implementation took a little longer than we expected, but we're glad we took the time to do it right.

Replacing Connectwise with PROMYS PSA
The Managed IT Service solutions that we deliver to our clients allow them to focus on their core competencies and leave managing their IT infrastructure to us. But in our own business, our previous business software was becoming a distraction to running our business. Instead of the business enabler we had hoped for when we first implemented, slow system response and support issues were consuming way too much time and attention. We have very aggressive growth plans, so we needed to select a system that would not only support our current needs, but one that would handle the increasing complexity of our company as our growth continues. With PROMYS, we know that no matter how aggressively we grow, we won't outgrow our software infrastructure, so now we can go back to focusing on growing and managing our business, as opposed to managing our business software.
CONSI would like to see more canned APIs, although their open Web Services/XML approach to integration is pretty flexible.

Impressed with PROMYS PSA
We're been live for a few weeks on PROMYS and find that the embedded quoting module in PROMYS is the glue that connects revenue and resource/margin forecasting with real-time visibility into mid-project cost against budget performance.
