Pays for itself many times over

So much easier to make sure all time is billed. I love when myself and staff can fill a solid day with tracked time — lets me know nothing has been left on the table before billing. Capturing all of the time we spend on projects pays for the monthly PWF licence many times over. We are simply more profitable with this tool.

PROS

Ability to organize projects any time from anywhere and delegate tasks effectively.

CONS

Xero integration could be improved. It's not possible to make any changes to an invoice after it is sent to Xero. It would also be great to be able to categorize line items into Xero's revenue accounts directly from PWF. Also, I find it takes too long to just add a quick task to a project while on the phone with a client — I always end up keeping notes in a text file because it's faster/easier, and then creating tasks in PWF later when I have more time.

If it isn't ProWorkflow, I don't want it!

I implemented ProWorkflow over five years ago and would never go back. I couldn't be happier with the system and the support's responsiveness and helpfulness. It honestly makes a world of difference. Even though we've had ProWorkflow for some time now, I've made it a mission to continually learn as much as I can about PWF to leverage everything we can that makes sense for Rev One (my company), and it's been fantastic. We've become significantly more efficient because of it. I couldn't be happier with PWF.

PROS

Data input and how it translates to reporting. Seeing data and real-time Job progress on all levels (product production status, burn rate, profitability, etc.)How easy it is to use and figure out. If you don't know how to do something or if a feature exists, you get the answer from support in less time that you think. This system is easy to grow with.

CONS

There are little things here and there that are more about my preference that I'd like to see, but does not hinder me in any way and is more about user experience. Not even worth bringing up because it may not be relevant enough to the majority. I'm too happy with the system to complain about anything, to be honest.

Reason for choosing ProWorkflow

It just made sense given the capability, and the attention the support and implementation team gave us.

Reasons for switching to ProWorkflow

The workbook was too complicated and expensive. The support wasn't there, and they were unwilling to work with us. Not the way PWF does (we honestly don't ask for much).

A solid platform for the money

The experience has been fine but not great. I can't say it has done a lot to make our processes better outside of having job numbers that people can track to. That said, it hasn't been bad enough to change platforms and the team really relies on it.

PROS

We evaluated a lot of platforms and ultimately selected ProWorkFlow. We have been with the platform for over five years so it has worked solidly enough to continue on with it. It's functionality covers the basics and yet has some customization built into it. The best feature is the search function for finding archived projects. The support team is excellent.

CONS

ProWorkFlow has been really slow to roll out new features. In many ways it feels like the platform was left behind by other more progressive platforms. The two biggest cons of the platform is that it is difficult for people to enter time sheets - ProWorkFlow has tried to provide lots of options for doing so but in the end it is overwhelming for employees to find a specific project and a specific task and then log their time. The second issue is that once you build schedules you can't export them in a client ready/friendly version with certain tasks hidden and all of it formatted nicely. We find ourselves rebuilding schedules in Excel for every project.

Keeps Management Simple

Proworkflow has allowed me to grow my business to where I am now. Scheduling was predictable and I always had flexibity to shift my schedule around on the fly without a lot of pain. The work flow from quote to projects to invoicing has been seemless.

PROS

Proworkflow requires minimal effort to stay on top of your business. I think the importance of this gets overlooked too often. Setting Quotes and invoices are minutes at most, and setting projects and adding tasks can be done on the fly with little investment of your time. You can see the impact on resources scheduling before you even finish setting up your planning your tasks. I don't have enough words how valuable of a tool this has been without scrambling our brains to operate.

CONS

If you need a more sophisticated system for proposals and invoices Proworkflow is not there. It will give you just enough flexibility to customize a quote and send your invoices to quickbooks/Xero directly from a quote or proposal. But if you need quote/proposal templates for multi page terms and conditions, and percentage invoicing or progress billing, be prepared to do these manually.

Reason for choosing ProWorkflow

Proworkflow had the least amount of on-boarding required while having the most features. Their support team was great at teaching us how to use it, at no cost.

Reasons for switching to ProWorkflow

Bqe had too many steps to start a project for our fast paced architectural busoness. We are a small firm, so we will not have a full time person dedicated to managing the system. We just needed to take changes that are thrown our way and get it into the project management system fast and capture all the time, and progress. Quotes should be able to get done in minutes to get a small project signed off on.
