Visit Website

Kantata helps professional services organizations of 50 to 5,000+ employees ensure consistent excellence and profitability across every project. With a platform that connects everything from scoping to resourcing to forecasting, you can always deliver amazing. The real challenge for most PS organizations is that their projects are so unpredictable. They never really know how an engagement is going to play out until it’s too late to do anything about it. And that undermines profits, strains resources, and leaves clients wondering what they’re really paying for. Kantata PSA puts an end to unpredictable projects by enabling you to: • Instantly assemble the ideal team – so you can deploy resources based on the best match for scope, scheduling, skillsets, and more • Easily amplify institutional knowledge – by turning past experience into real-time intelligence so all your expertise is available to all your people • Confidently forecast every outcome – with an accurate, comprehensive view of everything from revenue and margins to capacity and sentiment Not every services firm operates the same way — and your PSA shouldn’t either. Kantata is the only PSA offering both a Salesforce-native and an open infrastructure option, so you can choose the ecosystem that fits your business. With over 1,200 prebuilt connectors — including Salesforce, NetSuite, HubSpot, Workday, Sage Intacct, Microsoft Dynamics 365, Google Workspace, and Jira — Kantata extends the value of your existing tech stack while keeping all your operational data connected in one AI-powered platform. That’s why professional services organizations across software, IT services, management consulting, and marketing agencies rely on Kantata to operate with greater precision, predictability, and profitability.

"Streamlines Timesheet Management Effortlessly"

4/5

What do you like best about Kantata Professional Services Automation (formerly Mavenlink+ Kimble)?

I really like the layout and view of the new Kantata, especially the rounded edges of the display and orange theme. I also appreciate how easy it is for permission sets and creating new users, and having all roles, groups, assignments, and leave adjustments in one place. The automation of timesheet approvals and expense categories with projects makes life a lot easier for us and is so seamless. It works really well for us, especially being able to chase people for their hours and running reports, which really helps with month-end monitoring. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kantata Professional Services Automation (formerly Mavenlink+ Kimble)?

I think the closing of periods could be simplified so that we aren't having to chase expenses at the end and be notified beforehand in the display. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Streamlines Project Management with Comprehensive Features"

5/5

What do you like best about Kantata Professional Services Automation (formerly Mavenlink+ Kimble)?

I really appreciate Kantata Professional Services Automation's ability to manage assignments from creation to project status progression to completion and invoicing. Its ability to maintain updates and automated communications effectively reduces the need for inefficient manual follow-ups. One of the most critical features for me is being able to track the progression of assignments and maintain all supporting documentation within the system. Additionally, the integrated time tracking and invoicing capabilities within one platform are quite useful. It's also helpful that I can always review supporting documentation with multiple team members, ensuring everyone has access to the necessary information. Overall, it definitely allows me to know exactly where we are in the progression of an assignment at any given time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kantata Professional Services Automation (formerly Mavenlink+ Kimble)?

I think for us, the invoicing features could offer more robust features and abilities. However, the support team has been helpful with workarounds. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Kantata Professional Services Automation (formerly Mavenlink+ Kimble) solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use Kantata to manage assignments from start to finish. It automates updates and communications, tracks project progression, stores documentation, and supports time tracking and invoicing. This eliminates manual follow-ups and keeps everything easily accessible for the team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Kantata Tailored to Our Consulting Workflow—Better Forecasting with Less Effort"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Kantata Professional Services Automation (formerly Mavenlink+ Kimble)?

The Kantata team understands that each company has different needs. They have invested significant effort and time to meet our consulting team where it is, in terms of sophistication on project management, resource utilization, and capacity. They've sought to understand how we operate, invested in workflows that automate common pain points for our consultants, and challenged us when we're not using the system in the optimal fashion. Specifically they have worked with us to streamline how we schedule hours across our team, which has unique aspects from other consulting businesses. Through this we've seen greatly improved accuracy in our forecasting metrics, with less effort required from our consultants. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kantata Professional Services Automation (formerly Mavenlink+ Kimble)?

I'm confident we aren't using the system as optimally as possible around dashboards, reporting, and insights. Next on our list to explore with the Kantata team is streamlining decision-making information directly to our consulting leaders and our operations team, with as few clicks and scrolls as possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Kantata Professional Services Automation (formerly Mavenlink+ Kimble) solving and how is that benefiting you?

Most recently, the team has invested in our partnership by helping us streamline the scheduling of time across our delivery portfolio, which has unique aspects from other consulting businesses. This will give us the information we need to better forecast capacity needs and proactively augment our delivery resources. I expect this to save each of our consultants at least 1 hour a week, and indirectly, balance future workload across the team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Thank you so much for this thoughtful review, Jason! We’re incredibly grateful for your partnership and for the trust you’ve placed in our team. It’s especially rewarding to hear that the scheduling and workflow improvements are driving more accurate forecasting while saving your consultants meaningful time each week. That’s exactly the kind of impact we strive for.

We also appreciate your transparency around dashboards and reporting. Helping surface the right insights to leaders with fewer clicks is a great next step, and we’re excited to continue partnering with you to optimize that experience.

Thanks again for sharing your experience!

"Robust PSA Tool, But Resource Intensive"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Kantata Professional Services Automation (formerly Mavenlink+ Kimble)?

I like the functionality of the Workato workflow. It really gives us the ability to customize a lot of things. We highly leverage Kantata Professional Services Automation for resource planning and managing milestones. This helps us recognize and forecast revenue effectively as we operate using a milestone-based approach to revenue recognition. The integration with Salesforce through the Mavenlink connector is also beneficial. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kantata Professional Services Automation (formerly Mavenlink+ Kimble)?

I would like to see some work being done on being able to look at project milestones and health reports to come up with a better, more accurate automated summary. Maybe identify problems that we're going to come up with or incorrect information already being demonstrated in the project itself. For example, if our project health report reads we're going to finish a milestone in February, but the task tracker shows that same milestone as ending in December, I would like the automated report that Kantata creates to capture this as an error that needs to be addressed and then compare that to the overall end date of the project. Also, I would like Kantata to create something in the report that shows inaccuracies in overall task end date vs project end date and flag as an error in that automated report. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Kantata Professional Services Automation (formerly Mavenlink+ Kimble) solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use Kantata Professional Services Automation to manage resources and forecast needed hires, plan project milestones, and forecast revenue. It helps solve resource and capacity issues by providing insights into resource needs and timing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy Timesheets for Fast Logging and Clear Billable vs. Non-Billable Visibility"

4/5

What do you like best about Kantata Professional Services Automation (formerly Mavenlink+ Kimble)?

I appreciate Kantata's timesheets feature. It's easy to locate various projects, tasks and see my billable vs. non-billable utilization rate. It allows our team to quickly and efficiently log hours and makes the submission process easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kantata Professional Services Automation (formerly Mavenlink+ Kimble)?

There is a learning curve at first when using Kantata, primarily due to UI/UX. In timesheets, you can stack multiple entries to a specific project + task. Occasionally there are glitches when those entries stack but they are rare and usually fixed by refreshing the page. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Kantata Professional Services Automation (formerly Mavenlink+ Kimble) solving and how is that benefiting you?

Kantata helps our agency manage timesheets on various client + internal projects. It saves us time when quickly searching for our billable utilization rate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think a lot of work needs to be done around the templates and the Gantt chart. The Gantt chart is subpar, and a lot of our clients are used to leveraging Microsoft Project, so it really isn't up to the level of their expectations. The templates have issues too; we can't put custom fields in there. Creating a template from a project requires a lot of manual intervention, which is really tricky and not supportive of how they’re presented during sales demos. Also, it would be great to have the ability to create a project from a project, as our projects have many line items, making them too long to create a template from. I guess there are limitations around the current templates, and if there's no plan to improve them, presenting them as a foundational core for the product going forward doesn't seem right.

"Unified Data Management, Needs Improved Usability"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Kantata Professional Services Automation (formerly Mavenlink+ Kimble)?

I like that I can manage different sets of data in one place, making my work more efficient. I'm able to see all projects' financial components in one place, which is very convenient. Kantata Professional Services Automation allows me to connect revenue recognition with resource planning for both closed-won projects and those in the pipeline. Project managers can collaborate with delivery managers to plan projects efficiently, and I can see in real-time which months' resources are under- or over-planned, which helps in making necessary project assignment corrections. This integration also allows assignments and milestones to create a revenue forecast controlled by both delivery and project managers. I'm ready for scaling since Kantata allows us to manage more resources, revenue, pipeline, and projects in one system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kantata Professional Services Automation (formerly Mavenlink+ Kimble)?

I heard feedback that we have too many clicks in Kantata to get things in. This issue was shared by both project managers and solutioners. It would be great to make sure that the data input is done once and automatically populated in all Kantata sections where needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
