What do you like best about ConnectWise PSA?

We have been using ConnectWise for over 7 years and it manages everything for our MSP Business while integrating with our accounting and quoting software. As a ticketing system it's the best I've seen and includes many automation features that allow our managers and techs to spend more time with customers and not on data entry. The reporting with new Report Writer allows quick analysis, reports, and dashboard creation that can be shared with other team members. The integration with Quosal also allows for much needed automation on the sales side and conversion from sales to agreement to services ticket so the techs can start working on projects faster and less data is lost in translation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ConnectWise PSA?

ConnectWise requires a client to be installed. I'd prefer to see a completely web based solution. We'd also like to see a Azure SQL implementation so we don't have to run a dedicated SQL server. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ConnectWise PSA?

ConnectWise delivers a robust, feature-rich 'system' for operating a Professional Services company. ConnectWise provides tools and functions to support essentially every aspect of a business - Marketing, Sales, Procurement, Projects, Service Desk, Finance, TIme & Expense, and Clientele (Company).

ConnectWise can be fully integrated with accounting systems (We use QuickBooks Enterprise), and, of course, with Quoting products (we use Quosal) and RMM (we use LabTech).

We can use it from mobile devices, which our field technicians like, as well as desktop machines.

We appreciate the ongoing improvements / updates delivered by ConnectWise and have found support to be very good (it is available by phone, chat, email). ConnectWise is also supported by a strong user community and user groups. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ConnectWise PSA?

My personal dislike has been what I consider to be weak support for Project planning and management. Having been in this business for decades, including working as Project Manager in military/DoD environment, Project Management tools have been very basic (no ability to plan Project work/tickets based on dependencies, no tools to help smooth use of resources, etc, etc)

This has been changing of late, with a number of needed improvements in this area having been implemented and many more roadmapped. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering ConnectWise PSA:

Looking over other reviews, especially those with comments about being dismayed with complexity of setup, etc, etc, I feel it is important to let people considering ConnectWise PSA keep this in mind:

ConnectWise PSA is NOT something you simply 'plug in' and, voila, you are running a Professional Services company. You need to clearly understand and be able to explain your objectives / needs in terms of business plan / model / method of operation.

If you have that well defined, ConnectWise can guide you through implementing YOUR system.

If you do not have that well defined, implementation and operation will likely prove complex, time-consuming, and deliver problematic results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ConnectWise PSA solving and how is that benefiting you?

Primary business problems solved:

1. Effective / efficient scheduling of resources to ensure client needs met expeditiously and appropriately, while enabling optimal utilization of our technicians.

2. Effective management of business from technical, financial, and achievement of business objectives perspectives. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
