Accelo

Pros

Accelo's best feature is its collaborative workspace. The platform's communication tools, including shared calendars and real-time updates, foster team collaboration. The centralized project and client information ensures everyone is on the same page. Accelo's intuitive interface and user-friendly collaboration features enhance our team's productivity, facilitating seamless communication and efficient project delivery.

Cons

Although Accelo does a great job at facilitating collaboration, the functionality of its mobile app might be improved. Teams that need access to client and project data while on the go would benefit from a better mobile experience.

Pros

Accelo gives our team a great high-level view of all clients, times tracking and assets for various projects. The UI can be improved a lot, but the options for customizations are endless. Our primary use is the time tracking functions.

Cons

It's really difficult to go back and find a good total of all past work done on an account. Tasks and projects are too siloed and it's hard to put all of the pieces together.

Reasons for Switching to Accelo

Pros

There is nothing I like. Every Feature that seems like it would be a good thing E.G. having meeting from calendar appear in timesheets ends up not working to what you would expect. For example meeting will auto allocate to client and not project if not created from Accelo. Meeting can then not have people on different rates capture time as costs will not capture correctly.

Cons

Very Time consuming to capture Time and create/manage projects. Time capture overhead increased significantly when business started using Accelo.

Project Planning is very primitive and very slow with basic/backward functionality. honestly seems like Beta software at times.

Pros

Accelo has become one of the integral cogs in our team. We all use it daily and it helps to power projects and information seamlessly while remaining secure.

Cons

The user interface isn't necessarily as 'fancy' as some of it's competitors. But you can't fault it's functionality and that outweighs the cons for me.

Pros

Timekeeping is helpful and can be done in a variety of ways. It can be recorded manually or with the help of a timer. The Client Area and the Flexibility of Report Revisions. The design of the layout appeals to me. I like how simple it is to make new templates, and how the platform can handle the bulk of my business operations. Since Accelo had everything we needed, including a client portal, we made the transfer.

Cons

The vast array of features and customization choices can be overwhelming at first. The tasks you set up at the beginning of your workflow can have an impact on your billing later on.
