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

GroupOffice is an open-source groupware and CRM platform for enterprises and the public sector. It’s created and maintained by the Dutch company Intermesh. You can self-host the software or run it on Intermesh’s secure cloud infrastructure, where your data remains fully private. Collaborate with integrated file sharing, video conferencing, E-mail, calendar and contact management, project and time tracking, quoting and invoicing, support ticketing, and the Collabora Online office suite.

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.
