"Clear Project Insights, Cost Tracking Needs Improvement"
4/5
What do you like best about Projectworks?

I appreciate how Projectworks gives me a clear overview of the status of my projects and provides visibility to my work team about their resourcing across different projects. It enables conversations among project managers, which is valuable. The integration with Outlook is a great feature, as it catches my meetings and makes timesheeting easy. . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Projectworks?

Some of the resourcing associated with budgets doesn't bring the correct rate all the way through. So I'm always slightly off on my projected or forecast costs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Bernadette Keating of Projectworks

Thank you for sharing your positive experience with Projectworks, including the clear project overview and integration with Outlook - it's great to hear how you're already getting value from this brand new integration.

It sounds odd that the correct rate isn't pulling through and we'd definitely want to look into that for you, have you been able to get in touch with our support team? Send us an email support@projectworks.com so we can start looking into that for you.

Thanks again for choosing Projectworks, we look forward to supporting you with continued visibility of resourcing, easy timesheeting, good conversations and more!

"Great Time Allocation and Budget Tracking in Projectworks"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Projectworks?

Projectworks is a great project management tool. The time allocation features, and how easy it is to set up work based on availability, are what we use most. It has helped keep our project budget on track, integrated well with slack and has also helped us save manpower. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Projectworks?

The interface is a bit complicated, and that’s the main reason we ended up switching. It definitely takes some time to get used to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Seamless Integrations That Keep Our Business Running Smoothly"
4/5
What do you like best about Projectworks?

The integration with other key apps to run our business Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Projectworks?

It's a bit more complex than what our business needs (e.g., project budgets can be hard to understand at a glance, resourcing function ROI doesn't make sense for us to use it) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Bernadette Keating of Projectworks

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. It's great to hear that it has been beneficial for your business in terms of integrations, invoicing clients and employee performance management.

"Easy-to-Use, Highly Configurable Tool with Valuable Forecasting"
5/5
What do you like best about Projectworks?

Organisation-wide visibility with an interface that’s easy to use. It’s highly configurable to both user and business needs, and the forward resourcing and forecasting functionality is particularly valuable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Projectworks?

Not much, honestly. I’m still working on getting the reporting configured to fit our specific business needs, but since they released custom reporting, it’s been getting better every month as I continue to refine it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Bernadette Keating of Projectworks

Thank you for sharing your positive experience with Projectworks. We're thrilled to hear that you find the tool easy-to-use and highly configurable. It's also so great to hear that it's improving for you each month - we've got much more in store this year.

"Intuitive and robust software, well tailored for consultants serving multiple projects and clients."
4/5
What do you like best about Projectworks?

Setting up new projects, tracking time across the team. Quickly seeing spend for the month alongside expenses. Adding new members, adjusting access levels and detail, adding new clients and projects

Your support team is very helpful, both as a channel to provide feedback on software updates/functions that may be useful, and to provide guidance on a tool/feature I am unfamiliar with.

My monthly invoicing has gotten much quicker and with a few small system changes, will easily solve our invoicing delays.

Everyone on the team uses PW daily, and have all noted it as a significant upgrade to our previous time sheet approach Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Projectworks?

I have trouble uploading old work (Previous spend etc) to before I was onboard. I understand this is usually included in onboarding, but if there was a way to add 'spend to date';, this would make uploading clients with historic invoices much easier. I currently add an input each month of historic spend in the timesheet/timecodes section and void the exported invoice as a work around.

It would also be great to create sections/new budgets that act as extensions to previous budgets. We often receive 3 month extensions that are different to previous budgets (in rates and total hours). Currently I have to create new projects each time to allow this, even though we are still on the same budget. Simply adjusting rates and hours to an existing timecode/project breaks the tracking or projections I need for my reporting.

With expense reconciliation, I am having significant trouble migrating to project works. Two key reasons are:

1. I am not able to set GST per expense if needed. I purchase products that are partially govt and partially broker (i.e. infotrack govt database searches through a broker.) By nature, the GST is unique to the product as the broker fee (The GST inclusive part of the price) varies. Simply allow the Admin etc to override the GST box, and calculate the resultant % GST or vice versa would allow this. I can not set a GST amount for their 300 uniquely priced products, so I will continue using XERO for expenses

2. We do site visits with 5-20 purchases (Flights, food, accommodation etc) per visit. I do not want 5-20 reconciliations going to a colleague each time, so a combined expense function would be helpful here. For now, all costs are input as a single expense, but this raises errors with tallying and the above mentioned GST issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Charlotte Steel of Projectworks

Thanks for the thoughtful review, Lachlan - we're glad Projectworks is helping your team of consultants stay on top of time tracking, budget visibility, and invoicing. It’s great to hear it’s been a clear upgrade over your previous approach.

We really appreciate the detailed feedback about historical spend, budget variations, and expense reconciliation. These are important use cases and while we have workarounds (like creating timecodes for ‘spend to date’ or adding budget lines for extensions), we know some areas could be more streamlined.

Zabe from our team will be in touch directly to walk through your specific workflows and help ensure you're set up in the most effective way. And of course, you’re always welcome to contact support@projectworks.com at any time for help with setup or configuration.

Thanks again for taking the time to share this useful feedback - and for being such an engaged user!

"Excellent software, great implementation and service"
5/5
What do you like best about Projectworks?

We spent time reviewing a lot of different project management solutions and settled on Project Works for it's simplicity, price, integrations with our other software and the speed of implementation. We have not been disappointed. Customer service is excellent, responsive and tailored.

The team are enjoying using the system and we are benefiting from the new level of data we have to run the business. Recommend Project Works highly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Less guessing, more clarity"
5/5
What do you like best about Projectworks?

Honestly, it just makes everything easier to see. Before Projectworks, it felt like bits of information were scattered everywhere — spreadsheets, emails, someone’s head, a whiteboard. Now I can see how projects are tracking, who’s busy, who’s overloaded, and whether we’re actually making money, all without having to dig.

It feels like switching from guessing to actually knowing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Projectworks?

Nothing major. The setup takes a bit of thought, especially if you want it to match how your business actually works. We’ve even gone back later and changed the way we use certain features as we figured out what suited us best, which was actually pretty easy to do.

Once you’ve got the structure right, it all runs smoothly from there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Charlotte Steel of Projectworks

This is so fantastic to hear, Jonathan! You've summed up our purpose - to move experts from guessing to knowing, and to help them scale profitably. We're so happy to have killed off those chaotic spreadsheets for you, and to be saving you hours chasing timesheets. No more end-of-the-week scramble - that's awesome. Feel free to reach out to us at support@projectworks.com in future if you need any assistance!

"Effortless Financial Tracking with Intuitive UI"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Projectworks?

I love how Projectworks makes my work life easier with its user-friendly and intuitive interface, which feels very organic to navigate. The ability to effortlessly lodge hours and leave, along with quick retrieval and export of financial data into formats like Excel, is invaluable. The initial setup of Projectworks was straightforward, and this seamless process has contributed to its continued use in my team. I appreciate how Projectworks effectively addresses resourcing and budget allocation issues, making it an integral part of my workflow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Projectworks?

I would like to see an interactive dashboard with better integration with the resourcing data of the extended workforce. It would be useful to have metrics such as the percentage of workers that are under-resourced, over-resourced, and average resourcing. Additionally, a small dashboard displayed in each tab, rather than only in the 'dashboard' tab, would enhance usability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Charlotte Steel of Projectworks

Thanks so much for taking the time to share your experience! We’re delighted to hear that Projectworks has made day-to-day financial tracking and timesheet management easier, and that the intuitive interface, simple setup, and quick data export options are supporting your workflow. It’s great to know the platform is helping your team stay on top of resourcing and budgets with less effort.

Enhancing how resourcing data is surfaced across the platform is an area we’re actively exploring.

In the meantime, you can view metrics such as under-resourced, over-resourced, and average resourcing in several places within Projectworks:

Executive Dashboard: This provides a high-level overview of utilisation performance, including previous, current, and next month. Clicking the utilization percentage opens the Utilization Target report for a detailed breakdown.

Utilization Target Report: Accessed from the Reports section, this shows utilisation at organisation, team, line manager, or role level. You can apply various filters to tailor the view.

Individual Utilization Reports: To see details for a specific person, click their name in the Utilization Target report or use the Utilization menu within their profile.

We really appreciate your suggestions around interactive dashboards and your feedback has been shared with the Product team.

Thanks again for your thoughtful review and for being part of the Projectworks community!

What do you like best about Projectworks?

I like Projectworks because it has a simple user-friendly interface that's very easy to navigate and does what we need without requiring too much extra administration.
