WorkflowMax has been preset and designed with different management tools which puts in more accuracy in our work and allow us to manage our projects in more convenient ways. In our organization, we mostly have to deal with projects which are based on small teams dealing with different tasks at a time. So we always use this tool in order to perceive the notifications and the instant updates. The tasks can also be continuously coordinated and projected by the management teams to assists the team in their work. We can share messages and forms groups which allows us to enhance our performances in a better way and deal with the tasks in efficient manner.
On the negative aspect, we do have to face few issues which abrupt our performances and hurdles the way we perform our work. The continuous integration errors have raised a lot of issues for us and we have to follow long procedures in order to cope up the tasks eventually. The premium paid plans also additionally asks for paid features which in itself is a working barrier. The dashboard or the user interface although fits perfectly for an advance working, but their capability to assist any new beginners is almost null.
WorkflowMax in itself is an amazing working tool assisting the professionals from managing their work to collaborating in the most advanced ways.

I really love that the application can be built around your business needs. When you think of project management, it’s very specific to you and your process. You want to understand your process first before you try to build-out any workflow tool. The amazing thing about workflowmax is that you can really use it for what you’re doing and trying to accomplish. It integrates with other applications and gives you robust reporting capabilities. I can track my costs on jobs whether salary or expenses like travel.
The setup is challenging in the beginning and more videos would be really helpful. The help articles could go in more depth. Especially when you’re trying to figure out process. Also, if you have a project with a lot of steps, you can’t note directly to “to-do” items under a task. However, you can apply notes to tasks. We’ve made changes since implementation and that’s normal with any big implementation of a tool. Also to send an email to a job, the job number has to be in the subject line—that can be confusing to clients. So, I usually forward afterwards. It’s also not really iPad friends, so it needs improvement there. Regular tasks work, but if there’s a pop-up for additional information, it doesn’t work.
1 Plan your process out clearly thinking of all you’d like the application to do
2 Map out your process
3 Then use what you’ve got to see if the features support you
It’s a strong application, but you need to be ready to invest your time or someone else in building out properly. There’s a lot of project management platforms out there that are much easier to get started. But, with Workflowmax it will grow with you. One other might be easier to setup, but you’ll be turning around likely at some point and returning to find one that fits your needs at that time. So, if you’ve go the time and you’ve identified it will work, I think you’ll love it.
We use WorkflowMax to keep up with our year-long engagements, tax return preparation, onboarding, internal jobs, and analyze our costs. It’s been amazing to have all of these data in one place. It gives me real-time notifications and I can analyze performance and deadlines.
What are the best aspects of this product?
This is an easy to use but powerful project management platform with a great time tracking feature. Authorized people can easily open projects, and see the amount of time spent on each one. It is seamless to locate projects through a dependable numbering feature as well.
What aspects are problematic or could work better?
The platform can become too clunky when there are too many projects on the dashboard. We do not think it is an actual problem with the tool, however, since it is about the quantity of workloads it handles.
What specific problems in your company were solved by this product?
This is our favorite time tracking solution. A big help for project management as well, since it lifts huge management burdens off our shoulders.

What are the best aspects of this product?
WorkflowMax has impressive features for project management such as efficient time encoding and tracking, reporting, as well as financial management. It is backed by a topnotch team of support too. These make the platform suitable for companies that handle time-sensitive projects, such as construction, engineering, architecture, creative enterprises and accountancy among others. However, one must put extra focus on managing costs, since it demands accurate reporting according to plans and implementations.
What aspects are problematic or could work better?
I feel the reporting feature lacks many options, such as better capacities of digging through data, as well as tweaking filters while keeping other parts of a report. We can’t churn out a personalized report from an old one too, regardless of its report type. Also, we cannot directly sync the cost section of a report to the purchase order, or instantly connect an invoice copy to the cost. These are important because cost needs to be highly accurate in our construction project all the time.
What specific problems in your company were solved by this product?
WorkflowMax is phenomenal in terms of managing and tracking all of our projects. It is dependable for creating quotes and estimations for each project as well. Moreover, this is a big help for calculating project costs and income.

WorkflowMax is awesome for Creative Agencies, Accountants/Bookkeepers, Engineering/Architects and other similar business that have mostly time input into projects.
It also works well for Construction industry, although tracking the projects costs require more carefully planned and executed workflow to make sure the reporting is as relevant as can be.
The following features are those that come top of mind as the things WorkflowMax does great:
- Tight financial integration with Xero.
- Multiple ways to track and enter time.
- Cost is great for how much features it packs.
- Knowledge base and support is A1.
- Reporting capability are encompassing.
- Report could be more dynamic. For example, it would be great to be able to drill down, to be able to change filters/parameters without resetting the whole report, to be able to create a custom report based on an already existing report (whether an default or custom created one).
- For construction industry, where there are lots of project costs, it would be great to be able to link back a cost added to the cost tab of a job to a purchase order. It would also be great to be able to attach a copy of an invoice directly to a cost, instead of having
WorkflowMax is a great software and an excellent bang-for-your-buck compared to the competition.
While their Knowledge Base has everything you need to understand how it works and set it up yourself, I do recommend you connect with an implementation partner if you want to ensure you get the most meaningful information how of it. This is particularly relevant when determining wat should be your jobs, tasks and checklists.
Seamless project tracking, great ability to generate quote and estimates, see each job or task cost and profit.
