Simplified business and finance management for small businesses.

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: My verdict: CAFLOU is a great productivity tool that saves a lot of your time and helps manage projects, teams, and cash flow effectively.

Pros:

For Marketing Agency owners like me - CAFLOU came as the biggest campaign management relief. I mainly use CAFLOU for campaign management and tracking my agency finance. What I liked the most in CAFLOU: 1 / It's easy to configure the campaign (project) management feature is a great help for me. I can easily keep my team and client in a loop about what's going on, what are the next steps and what are the pending tasks. 2 / The seamless collaboration helped us reduce the meeting and communication time - and save almost 8-10 Hrs a week. 3 / CAFLOU's finance management feature is so cool that - I can effortlessly send recurring invoices, notify clients about pending payments, clear receivables timely and track the health of cash flow.

Cons:

Honestly speaking, I didn't face any major issues by now. Everything is well organised and kept simplified.

Very usefull software for freelancers and also agencies

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: With Caflou I have been working for 6 years. I implemented it into marketing agency and this step was very easy. Process in Caflou are intuitive and technical support is max. helpful. I also use this software as a freelancer and it helps me manage projects and each tasks.

Pros:

Pros of this software are clarity, ease of use, intuitiveness. Thanks to [SENSITIVE CONTENT] and his team.

Cons:

I don´t have any cons. Maybe for someone can be difficult to apply processes, which are made in Caflou. It is difficult to customize the system, change the architecture and rules. But it is well done.

Base App For Freelancers

4.0 2 years ago

Comments: I use caflou for managing my own project in my freelance career. I manage cashflow and use it for invoicing, making quotes, making reports and for managing my tasks. I use exports of reports for my customers.

Pros:

It is easy to use that. The app helps you during starting your business because it includes everything what you need in one package.

Cons:

External acces for customers in lower licence type (i Think it could be available in base). Better planning and scheduling of tasks (Here is WBS), but planning isn't able to set new datum when you move with it in gant or WBS.

Caflou for agency

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: Plan Cashflow -> Plan project -> create task -> Track time -> create invoice. It is our important flow in this app. We have a really good control in our economy.

Pros:

We have all datas in one tool. We do not need to use more tools to get our business targets. We have just one app for everything we need.

Cons:

We are missing strong automatization tool to create custom events. The Caflou has already some feature to do that, but it is still a little bit simple.

Simple and ever improving project and order management system.

5.0 7 years ago

Comments: Finally project management system I was looking for (thanks to Czech language which need some of our employees)

Pros:

A highly structured system of projects and tasks, including simple handover to colleagues. At first glance, the visible development of the project or task, including the person in charge. Everything can be changed in one click in the project / task list. Adding companies is very simple, just enter ID and the rest is loaded from the internet database. Each task can be tracked by in-programme timer and the minutes spent by the job and this is simply flipped into the statement and subsequent billing that is part of the system. Every month, there is many upgrades, which reflects wishes and experiences of its users. If you have any problem or question, you can contact support by in-programme chat and you get answer in few minutes.

Cons:

Some functionality would be a little bit better, but if you write it to development team, they work it in next or future upgrade.

Caflou is helping me on daily base manage my cashflow and generate invoices pretty easily.

5.0 7 years ago

Comments: I can save my time with this software. Especially I like the options to make invoices quickly and share them very easily. The whole team and especially Customer rep is a very kind guy and I can see on him, that he really wanna help out people like me to solve their problems and make their life easier. I recommend him and his project 150% for all who want whole office soft in ONE pack.

Pros:

Generate invoices easily and share them instantly. Option to manage my goals and link them to different projects. Very intuitive databases of my clients and coworkers. I also can see my cashflow in general or simply filter it, so it's obvious how I am doing in particular time. It is also possible to setup some payments repeatedly, co you don't have to renew them every month. What I also like is possibility to connect timer with a certain project and make work statement easily. It's very good for every company with more employees.

We love this product. Our company uses it every day (and night) and I will always recommend it.

5.0 7 years ago

Comments: Overview of my company, clients, projects... Planning - incomes/outcomes. Freedom of working without being every day in my office.

Pros:

easy to use, for whole team - many possibilities how to organize project and tasks, company-project-task overview, cashflow graphs, invoices and many other things

Cons:

I would say almost nothing. Maybe - I (as a superadmin) can 't change username to others (they have to make it themselves) and there is no module how to connect it to my outlook callendar) but I am able to live without this...

Not exactly intuitive, but effective

5.0 last year

Comments: I really liked the possibility of concentrating all communications, expenses, income of each client and project in one place. This allowed me to understand the profitability of each project and immediately see the finances and what was happening.

Pros:

A project management tool among the best. It allows you to plan, collaborate, track projects in all their facets. It has allowed me to maintain more profitable customer relationships and manage my time. The price is undoubtedly very positive.

Cons:

I couldn't sync everything with my Outlook calendar. For some it may be difficult to use, the dynamics are not simple at first sight.

One of the greatest advantages of Caflou is the balance of price and value perceived

5.0 7 years ago

Comments: It is simple to use, it has great customer support, new features are being added every month, cost of software is great to value delivered

Pros:

I 've been using application Caflou for a long time for managing of customer contracts . I'd chosen Caflou after using several other competitive applications, local or global. One of the greatest advantages of Caflou is the balance of price and value perceived, simple operation and service, continuous development and last but not least almost immediate support and assistence - even on weekends or evenings, i.e. whenever I need it. It's worth every cent.

Pros:

Easy to use by our whole team, with very good reporting and all tools required by our company to manage most of our business processes.
