What do you like best about Accelo?

I use Accelo every day for work. It is convenient that it syncs with Gmail, so I can easily log my time for emails on my daily timesheet. I like how I can manage my tickets and tasks and track their progress through statuses.

I have reached out to their support team a few times, and the questions were resolved quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Accelo?

While Gmail is integrated, a few emails seem to fall between the cracks. Most emails show up in my daily timesheet, but usually there are one or two missing.

I wish ticket statuses would update automatically based on email conversations, or that there was a checkbox when sending an email so I can easily update the status from there. Otherwise it's easy to forgot and the statuses aren't accurate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Accelo makes it easy to track my billable time Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Megan Mathewson of Accelo

Thanks for sharing your experience! We're glad to hear Accelo helps streamline your day-to-day tasks and makes tracking billable time easier, especially with the Gmail integration. We appreciate your feedback on email syncing and ticket status updates. Our team is always working on refining these features to improve your workflow and make sure nothing falls through the cracks. Stay tuned for future updates!

What do you like best about Accelo?

I like using the timesheet overview functionality best so that I can keep an eye on how our team is tracking against targets. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Accelo?

It's just so expansive so has taken a long time to adjust to and find my way around. The retainer functionality doesn't quite align with the way we plan our work, so that has been challenging. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Accelo has helped us bring our billing and work all into the same place, which is helpful as we are using fewer systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
