“It’s a well-rounded platform that brings together time tracking, budgeting, resourcing, and project reporting in one system, which makes managing projects more organized and efficient. Once you get familiar with the interface, it becomes a powerful tool for improving visibility and keeping projects on track. While there is a learning curve and a few areas that can feel a bit clunky at first, it ultimately saves time and helps streamline day-to-day project management.“

### "projectworks helps me keep track of time and money."

December 16, 2025

5.0

project works is a useful tool for us. We used a list before, but it's a mess. Now everything is in one place. The time sheet is easy for my team to use, which makes them happy. Business people who need to better organise projects should use this. It helped us a lot.

Pros

it's easy to keep track of time. it only takes one click to go, not hard at all. Budget forecasting is a useful tool. We now know how much money is left after not knowing before. A lot of help for the boss. It works well to connect to Xero. The invoice goes straight through, and there are no copy-and-paste errors.

Cons

the app on my phone is a little slow sometimes. when i try to put in cost, it load and loads. need to fix this issue.

### "The Right Product for a Consulting Firm!"

October 30, 2025

5.0

Very positive. The support team is exceptional and will stick with your issue until you reach a satisfactory solution. The newer updates that come out are continuing to improve the tool.

Pros

As a consulting firm, we needed a platform that truly understands how we work — one flexible enough to manage complex projects with varying rates, roles, and timelines. The newest updates have made a noticeable difference, with a cleaner interface and improved usability that makes navigating projects much smoother. What really sets this tool apart is the ability to see profit margins by project and adjust costs directly at the project level — that insight has been invaluable for keeping both our financials and staffing in balance. Unlike other software we’ve tried that never quite fit our workflow, this platform delivers a seamless experience across financial, people, and project management functions. Finally, their customer support team is exceptional — highly responsive, even across time zones, and genuinely committed to finding solutions. They stay with you until your issue is resolved. It’s a rare combination of capability, adaptability, and service that makes this platform stand out.

Cons

does take a little time to get accustomed to. Some of the language and functions weren’t as intuitive as what I was used to with other tools. However, once I spent a bit of time exploring and becoming more familiar with the system, it became super easy to use and the layout made much more sense.

Reason for choosing Projectworks

ProjectsWorks had better usability for our needs and was the slightly more affordable. I also liked that was comprehensive and did not play those "upgrade" games that Hubspot (specifically) and Salesforce do.

Hi Shelley, thank you for your kind words! That's exactly why we called our platform "Projectworks" - because we wanted to make a platform where projects just work, and where we take all the tedious, boring admin off your plate. We’re thrilled to hear that Projectworks is fitting the way your consulting business operates - especially around variable rates, people planning, and financial insights. That’s exactly the kind of flexibility we aim to deliver. We’re also really glad to hear you’ve had a great experience with our support team. With team members now across the US, UK, and AU/NZ time zones, we’re committed to being responsive no matter where you are (feel free to get in touch at support@projectworks.com!). Thanks for being a valued member of our community.

### "A poor business decision to move to this software"

January 18, 2025

1.0

A poor business decision to move to this software

Pros

Resource planning and time booking is ok, albeit a rather trivial matter to achieve

Cons

Clunky. In many minor instances not intuitive. Clearly still in development. Not written by people who fully understand projects. Seems to be a venture capitalist enterprise cranking up reviews but without the substance. Rather tedious to use

Dear Rupert, we’re sincerely sorry to hear that Projectworks has not met your expectations. We’re open to your feedback to help us improve the product. We’d like to address a few of the points you raise: - We have close to 150 years of combined experience in project-focused consulting firms. We’re passionate about making the best project financials tool as part of our overall professional services platform. We’re looking forward to understanding where we fall short in what you need to manage project financials. - It’s important to us that we understand our prospective customers’ requirements and that we know the product will be a good fit for them as we go through the evaluation cycle. Again, we look forward to understanding where we fell short in this part of the process. We have scheduled time on your calendar to get your feedback and look forward to learning more about how we can improve going forward.

### "Great Dashboard, Poor Onboarding"

February 20, 2026

4.0

Bad with customer service and with registration process! I really like to do everything and explore on my own. At least, offer a sandbox account with demo data so users can explore how the platform works right away.

Pros

As a startup manager, it's always helpful to see your startup progress, tasks and resources in one dashboard. You really need this just like you will need ClickUp to keep you updated on resources and to be able to manage the whole business in one dashboard.

Cons

Bad customer service! I applied for a demo, but no one has gotten back to me. Why I need to schedule a demo to try this platform? The experience should be offered immidetly for each customer with automating the process not waiting for another human being to get back to me! If this was not available, you can put a demo data where you can see how this platform actually works.

### "Seamless Transition with Exceptional Support"

November 2, 2025

5.0

I've used for project management for about two years after switching from WorkflowMax, driven by its seamless integration, user-friendly interface, and adaptive features. While the transition was smooth, I wish for better invoicing capabilities directly within Projectworks. Despite this, I'd rate it a nine for recommendation, mainly due to its excellent customer service and adaptability.

Pros

I love for its user-friendly nature, making data adaptation and timesheet entry modifications straightforward, and invoicing exceptionally easy. Its functionality is well-suited for forecasting and provides a clear snapshot of our workload and progress with its efficient dashboard and intuitive interface. This allows both administrators and project managers to quickly access necessary information. Additionally, Projectworks' adaptability is impressive as it evolves with technology, notably in AI integration, and continuously develops to cater to customer needs. The custom reporting feature is a major advantage, helping us utilise data efficiently. Transitioning from WorkflowMax to Projectworks was exceptionally smooth, facilitated by a responsive and supportive team who made sure our custom fields were integrated seamlessly, enabling a quick operational start. Their openness to feedback and dedication to enhancing the product stands out, supported by a fantastic support team that offers prompt solutions and follow-ups. Moreover, Projectworks' integration with Xero for financial management is incredibly beneficial, ensuring a streamlined workflow for invoice management.

Cons

The inability to directly invoice from and add necessary attachments from our server is one area they could enhance. Currently, I have to export invoices to Xero, as I can't modify the email or include additional attachments directly within Projectworks. I wish Projectworks had the capability for customising emails as you are sending them out and attaching documents from our server, to streamline the invoicing process entirely within the platform.

Thank you Kate for this fantastic review - we’re thrilled to hear that Projectworks has made your transition from WorkflowMax smooth and that the platform has made your forecasting, timesheet management, and invoicing workflows more efficient. Thanks also for the shoutout for our new custom reporting feature and our fabulous Customer Success team! You’ve raised a really helpful suggestion about being able to send invoices with attachments and editable emails directly from within Projectworks. While exporting to Xero is currently required for these steps, we can see how a more complete in-platform invoicing experience would save time. We’ve flagged this with the team and encourage you to reach out to support@projectworks.com if you’d like to share more details or discuss possible workarounds in the meantime. Thanks again for the thoughtful feedback - we’re so glad to have you on board and growing with us! It means a lot that you have taken the time to review us.

### "Comprehensive project and invoicing platform with incredible reporting — could use more automation and tutorials"

October 9, 2025

4.0

Overall, is an excellent, comprehensive platform that combines project management, time tracking, and invoicing in a clean, reliable system. With a few workflow enhancements, it could easily be a five-star solution. Their support team, especially \[sensitive content hidden\], has been EXTREMELY awesome to work with.

Pros

I use as an admin for project management, time tracking, and invoicing, and it has become an essential tool for running our operations smoothly. It’s fantastic for keeping track of all project work, monitoring employee time accurately, and managing client invoicing in one place. The platform’s reporting capabilities are especially impressive — there’s an enormous catalog of reports you can build, which provides deep visibility into project performance, utilization, and financials.

Cons

My only real suggestions for improvement would be: Offering tutorials or guided learning resources for the reporting features — they’re powerful but can be a bit complex for new users. Adding a feature to auto-prepare draft invoices at the end of each month, so that when admins go to generate invoices, they’re already staged and ready for review. Currently, the “Invoices” section only displays what’s been generated, but a draft-mode view would save time and streamline month-end billing.

Much easier to use for sure. Accela isn't "user-friendly" without a LOT of training and deep dive. should offer deeper training though on their reporting features, especially for a net new user to the platform.

Thanks so much for the thoughtful review, Kara! We're thrilled to hear Projectworks has become an essential part of your operations - especially that the reporting tools are helping you gain the visibility needed to stay on top of project performance and financials. We also appreciate the great suggestions. The custom reporting feature is definitely intended for those users who have previous, technical reporting experience, and we do appreciate that it has a learning curve. In terms of direct assistance with custom reporting, we're currently offering support for specific report questions, and noting requests for reports to be added to the Managed Reports list. We can also connect users with partners for report assistance, and we're always open to hearing where our Help Center materials have gaps so we can continue to add and improve them - feel free to share any you've identified with us at support@projectworks.com.

### "Effortless Invoicing and Xero Integration"

October 29, 2025

5.0

We changed into it after another system went through and tbh, I don't know why any business charging by the hour would be still using spreadsheets and manual invoices.

Pros

I like that it just works; we can generate invoices almost instantly after completion of timesheets; it integrates very well with Xero, our accounting software.

Cons

In the couple of instances we have needed support, it has been a little bit slow to get support - but mostly we don't need support.

### "All in one product that gets professional services"

September 22, 2025

5.0

Time tracking in alongside project budgets has been great for us. It helps us see where we spend our time and how profitable it stays. Much better than the mess we were in before, losing billable hours without even realizing it.

Pros

gets time tracking, expense reporting and internal resource planning together. We were using multiple tools for that before. Onboarding new clients is now easier as well.

Cons

It doesn't have a native Zoho Books integration, so we have to sync our data manually. Zapier is an option for that but would cost us extra.

[Productive](https://www.capterra.com/p/169710/Productive/)

Hi there, thanks so much for your review - we’re thrilled to hear that Projectworks is helping your team stay on top of time tracking, budgets, and profitability all in one place. We built Projectworks specifically for professional services teams, so it’s great to see that value coming through clearly for you - and that you're no longer missing billable hours! We hear you on the Zoho Books integration. While it’s not a native integration at this time, we do support Zapier as a workaround - as you’ve mentioned. We’re always assessing demand for new integrations, so your input is helpful here. Thanks again for the kind words and for using Projectworks to keep things running smoothly!

### "Most innovative project management platform. "

July 29, 2025

5.0

is still the best single platform for managing all project dimensions. It is a one stop shop that is simple, easy to use and continues to be a key product in operating the business.

Pros

is a simple and intuitive tool, and really gives me the visibility I need to review project health, forecasting and resourcing in a single place. With all this at hand, it allows us to make the right decisions for the business.

Cons

Project works continues to make rapid changes to their product, and with that I have found I am getting error pages more often. A bit more stability would be great.

### "Long time user, avid fan!"

July 21, 2025

5.0

has become a central part of how we run our business. It’s intuitive for all staff, provides good insight, and makes month-end and forward planning far easier. The support team is proactive and helpful, and new features are released regularly. We’re big fans.

Pros

The biggest win is the integration of delivery, resourcing, and financials into a single, intuitive platform. makes it easy to track project health, forecast revenue, manage resources, and generate meaningful business insights, all in real time. It’s built for services firms so doesn't have unnecessary or unused functionality. The UX is very intuitive, reporting is robust, and implementation was straightforward.

Cons

While the product is constantly evolving and the roadmap is transparent, it would be useful to link fee forecasting with resourcing as one drives the other. That said, the team has always been open to feedback and quick to respond to support queries.

### "One stop shop for accounts coordination and project management"

July 8, 2025

5.0

The customer service and troubleshooting experience has been second to none, and I love that the company is so receptive to feedback and is continuing to build a platform that is so customiseable that we can use it across a range of projects that are quite bespoke in nature.

Pros

We love the user interface offers. Our fees are often slightly different structures both in terms of fee and resourcing and we are able to create each project and key deliverables to match this. The customer service is also excellent!

Cons

We had a bit of trouble with the way the manual / historical data imported in to - in hindsight, perhaps the onboarding around this could have been clearer. But this has been easy enough to mitigate!

Experience has been great from investigating solutions, trialling, implementation and now daily use.

Pros

saves us time processing month-end and gives us good insights. Projectworks was easy to implement and is easy to use, and our team was up and running quickly. We receive great customer support, and the team is very responsive. We use Projectworks daily to manage our opportunities, projects and pipeline.

Cons

Inability to save views—We can view data in different ways, but we need to set it up every time we want to look at things differently.

Hi Janine, we are so grateful that you haven taken the time to share your thoughts and for being such a strong advocate for Projectworks. We would love to know just how much time you are saving month-end! It's excellent to hear that the implementation was smooth and that the team is finding Projectworks easy to use day-to-day - this is exactly what we expect. Regarding saving views - have you come across the "Remember my selection" option under the 'Filters...' dropdown? This lets you save and revisit the filters you have chosen. Additionally, the configuration you choose under "Hide/show/group" will default to how you have grouped/shown columns when you revisit. We pride ourselves on being a project intelligence platform, so knowing that you're drawing practical insights from Projectworks without extra admin is just what we want. Thank you again - and as always, feel free to contact our friendly team at support@projectworks.com.

1\. The ongoing personalised support. This made the implementation process run very smoothly. Also, it has meant that any issues that arose after transition have been dealt with quickly and in-person (via video call). 2. The intuitiveness of features. Very easy to use. 3. The openness to feedback and the resulting continuous improvement of the software.

Cons

As with any off-the-shelf software package, we have had to use some workarounds to make it do what we want it to do (and effectively customise it for our reporting needs). With time and with the responsiveness of to feedback and suggestions, we hope that some of our workarounds will no longer be necessary.

We were impressed by resourcing module and how it worked well with the time recording and project management modules and reporting.

### "Reliable, centralized project platform that keeps admin work simple"

December 3, 2025

5.0

gives me one place to manage users, permissions, and key integrations. Having time tracking, resourcing, and invoicing together cuts down the number of tools I need to support. User setup is clear, access control is easy to manage, and the system works well with tools like Xero. Support has also been quick and helpful whenever I have needed it.

Pros

Admin tasks are easy to handle, from creating accounts to setting roles and permissions. The SSO setup reduces access issues, and the finance and reporting integrations help avoid manual work. Updates come regularly and improve the product without extra effort on my side.

Cons

Reporting can feel limited when I need very specific data, so I sometimes export and build my own reports. Some advanced settings take time to learn, and the system can be a bit slow when loading large datasets, though it doesn’t happen often.

### "Simple and no nonsense platform "

December 10, 2025

5.0

I use for timesheets and leave requests, and it simplifies invoicing as a consultant. I love its simplicity and ease of use, which saves time on timesheets. The initial setup was very simple, and I rate it a 10 for recommendations.

Pros

I really like for its simplicity and ease of use. It makes timesheets simple and quick to fill in, saving me time and effort. The ease of invoicing hours as a consultant is particularly beneficial, and the initial setup was very simple.

Cons

Nothing of note, I think the platform is simple and effective for what it needs to do. Further integrations for invoicing could be a handy future product.

Overall it’s been pretty good so far, it’s made managing projects easier but I do wish the mobile experience and custom reporting were a bit more polished

Pros

Honestly it’s super easy to use and the time tracking and invoicing features are awesome and save me a lot of hassle, the reports are very helpful

Cons

the mobile app could definitely be better and it is missing some features and just feels a bit clunky sometimes but overall good

Hi Nidhi, thank you for your honest feedback - we’re really glad to hear that the time tracking, invoicing, and reporting tools are saving you hassle and helping with project management. That’s exactly what we’re aiming for, so it’s great to know those features are working well for you. We hear you loud and clear on the mobile app and custom reporting. Custom reporting is a relatively new feature and we are learning about how we can improve it as more and more people adopt it - so thank you for your feedback! Ultimately, it is a more technical tool aimed at advanced users. We're sorry to see your ratings for customer support and value didn’t match the rest of your experience. Maybe you missed them? That’s not where we want to land, and we’d love the opportunity to learn more so we can make it right. If there’s something we missed or a way we can support you better, please don’t hesitate to reach out at support@projectworks.com - we’re here to help.

Overall, is a dependable tool for tracking resources, financials, and ensuring accountability across projects.

### "Must have forecasting tools for startups"

September 15, 2025

5.0

It solved our project management problem and shown us where we are making process and how our head count is spread and where is the money is being spend the most. This gives us the much needed clarity for the early stage we are in.

Pros

The most helpful thing about is the real time progress it shows over our team and the forecast it provides on our runway. Those features help us in managing head counts and when changing the works on each team.

Cons

Nothing to dislike, it takes a while to understand the interface and once we set it up, all is good.

### "Inexpensive alternative to the pricey, comlicated tools "

February 28, 2022

Love Project works. Such a more intuitive tool and simple to use.

Pros

So easy to use. It's very logical. There are frequent releases with improvements.

Cons

It's great at resourcing and reporting. You will need a project management solution like MSProject to track project progress but does the rest for you.

### "Very well tailored for needs of a professional services consultancy"

March 10, 2022

5.0

I’ve been so impressed with the platform and the simple but effective balance it strikes in doing what a professional services company of our size/scale needs well. It's been a really easy transition and the continual product updates and responsiveness of the team are fantastic. Having used a variety of different systems in consultancies of different sizes and scales, this is hands down the most productive and effective platform I've ever used. It's intuitive, easy to use, and strikes the right balance between having practical well thought functions, without having too many distracting bells and whistles that can often make these platforms overly complex and hard to implement effectively across the whole team.

Pros

Project Works appears to be tailor-made for a professional services consultancy. Its interface and ease of use are the best I've seen. The rollout and integration with our existing business systems were about as seamless as you could hope for. I was so impressed with how quickly my team was able to use the system to full effect. We gradually introduced all features over a few months, starting with timesheets, invoicing, and then resourcing. This allowed the team to get to know features one by one and build confidence in its use. We are now using all functions and features and it's been transformational for our business. The project works team has also been amazing. They are really knowledgeable, available, and clearly willing to work with their clients to make the platform as good as it can be. I couldn't recommend it highly enough.

Cons

There is not much I don't like. There is such a continual development process for the platform, that new improvements and tweaks are happening regularly. Over time, it would be good to see more user optionality in reporting and the margin reporting feature could also be improved.

### "Good for Project Management "

March 10, 2022

4.0

Easy enough to log time and manage resources via the portal.

Pros

Easy to export burn reports and log time.

Cons

You can't set rules about editing timesheets and for example rules about logging time. Also can't link parent and child engagements for projects so you end up with just separate projects to bill against.
