Love the fact that we have managed to streamline our agency operations - The data analytics is super key information for us which is so great. Love the dashboards. The NTT Global Marketing Team is looking at operating under a "shared services model" which will be great to have magnetic as our number 1 productivity and resource allocation tool - [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] and his extended team are nothing but always happy to assist/support no matter what the ask. Big win for Greenhouse to have a platform partner like this and key for us - The support desk, [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] is incredible and always so quick to resolve or respond to mails - Very exciting times in deed!!!!

Pros:

That everything we work on sits in one central place. The data analytics we are able to pull from Magnetic are great!

Cons:

Initially when working in it, it seemed like there were a lot of clicks to get to what we needed to do. Now it is 2nd nature for all of us and it's so part of our process and works really well.

Reasons for choosing Magnetic

I cannot say as I was not involved in that process.

Thank you for your review Melissa! NTT has been such a fantastic client and we hope to expand with you in the coming months.

Simple and effective for project management

Ratings Breakdown

Ease of use

Functionality

Pros:

Magnetic is simple and easy to use - navigating your way around tasks and campaigns is a great user experience. When I started using Magnetic 2 years ago I was dreading learning how to use yet another project management system but to my surprise, the training proved that this really is a great tool. Tasking in projects and assigning them to users is easy and this tool in comparison to a competitor I have worked on previously is miles apart.

Cons:

One thing that could definitely use improvement is the task and campaign search function - I sometimes find that if you do not type in the exact task name as a phrase you will not find the task.

Reasons for switching to Magnetic

Moved from one agency to another

Vendor Response

Thank you for your review Lisa. We love that you find Magnetic simple and effective for your project management tasks.

Studio Management Made Eas

Our agency has been very happy with the system.

Ratings Breakdown

Ease of use

Value for money

Customer support

Functionality

Pros:

Magnetic has allowed our studio to run autonomously. As a result of Covid Lockdown, there was a need for our Account Managers to take on a studio and project management role, over and above their client service work. Magnetic made it possible for the team to schedule work, knowing the availability of each resource and track progress, and ensure deadlines were met. The system is easy to use, collaborative and allows management to track each job easily in one place. Profitability reporting is now at our fingertips and we have been able to improve our margins as a result.

Cons:

1. Some fields, such as "estimated time" should be mandatory to ensure that the team scheduler is always populated

Reasons for switching to Magnetic

The previous system did not allow us to view resource availability. We needed something with more project management functions. The system glitched often. Frozen screens, not able to save info, etc.

Vendor Response

Thank you for the review Deidre, we are so glad that your team is able to work seamlessly with Magnetic!

Pros:

It is a very easy platform to use, helping our agency keep track of jobs in the system, flag those that are running over budget or hours, and identify bottlenecks or capacity issues with in the various teams. the platform also enables better version control with documents - and better tracking of feedback/discussions through the use of the comments section.

Cons:

Some of the new updates made within the last 4 months took a little getting used to, but we seem to have come right now.

Thank you Stella! We value your review and your ongoing support. We have loved working with Stratitude over the years.

Simplifies keeping track of work and time

We have lots of jobs on the go at any time, being able to easily know which ones I need to work on is a real plus.

Ratings Breakdown

Ease of use

Functionality

Pros:

As a user this allows me to focus on the work that needs to be done and easily send completed work back to the account management team. We then have a record of all the work and when it was completed. Tracking time is simple and easy to do, even for creatives who hate tracking time.

Cons:

Integration into other leave systems is the main issue. As a user I need to log time once on the HR system and once on Magnetic so the traffic manager can allocate time properly.

Vendor Response

Thank you for your review Ben! We are pleased that Magnetic has simplified your tracking work and time.

Use and Efficiency of Magnetic

Magnetic is very user friendly. I did not get formal training. I just got login details and I started exploring the system, and I did not face any challenges. The support is great and covers all areas of operations, ie cost estimates, jobs, reports, customers and suppliers. Like mentioned already, it is an all in one system that is easy to use.

All is very clear. You can use the system for all including accounting, jobs, cost estimates. Its a one in all system.

Cons:

When you change an invoice, it list the invoice using the date and that distorts he number sequence and that make it difficult to search for an invoice sequentially.
