Reports should be something you make decisions on, not something you spend hours and hours creating. CMap’s data feeds reports and live, personalised dashboards to give you the info you need to make key decisions swiftly.

CMap comes with a suite of insightful out-of-the-box reports, but that’s just the start. With the ability to create custom in-app reports and gain direct access to your raw data (in Excel or external BI tools like Power BI), reporting capabilities go stratospheric.

With a separate CRM, data is inconsistent. For example, a “deal value” may be nothing more than a number typed into a field. Whereas CMap’s innovative “Fee Estimator” robustly calculates this value, considering roles, rates and deliverables. Separate CRMs are limited to a pipeline-only view, b...

CMap For Outlook is a game-changer for people who live in email. Just received an email from a client to discuss a new potential project? Effortlessly create the opportunity in CMap’s CRM from within Outlook. Need to submit your timesheet? No problem, do it from within Outlook. People love ...

The problem with most resourcing software isn’t the initial set-up of resourcing data: it’s keeping on top of the changes. CMap’s cutting-edge resourcing tools empower you to make super-quick changes and get instant feedback on how they impact the project outcome. With stunning reports that sp...

Many companies only use a fraction of their HR systems. With CMap, we give you the tools & functionality you actually need... and none of the bloat. Thanks to the power of CMap’s “Pages” functionality, setting up a highly configured HR system is a breeze. Performance reviews? Sure thing. I...

"One stop software for project running and resourcing"

5/5

What do you like best about CMap?

The fact that you can use it to monitor profitability and also look to the future and use as a resource tool. That's been impossible to find in other software.

I also like the integrations with our other software such as xero Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CMap?

filling in timesheets is not quite as seemless as I would like, you have to move away from data fields to access others that are hidden behind them sometimes. Minor gripe. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to use PSA – use for CRM, project & resource planned"

5/5

What do you like best about CMap?

We use CMap to manage our sales pipeline, revenue forecasting & tracking, then also our project managers track all the time, expenses & billing for any job. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CMap?

Nothing particularly – it’s got more industry specific features (like billing in hours or days etc) than our previous PSA. We had to build some custom reports, but the BI tools are comprehensive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering CMap:

Get the “edition” that suits your industry – then everything is pre-plugged Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is CMap solving and how is that benefiting you?

We had a pretty simple PSA (mainly for time & expenses), then a separate CRM for sales & PM’s used Excel for project planning & resourcing. One system makes it easy for everyone in the business to get what they need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
