Autotask vs. Kantata Professional Services Automation (formerly Mavenlink+ Kimble)

Autotask is the intelligent, unified PSA platform that powers high-performing MSP operations. It connects tickets, time, projects, contracts and billing in one seamless workflow — eliminating manual effort, reducing technician friction and ensuring every billable hour is captured automatically. With built-in automation and real-time visibility, Autotask streamlines service delivery, improves profitability and turns operational data into actionable dashboards that drive accountability and demonstrate value.

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.
