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

Upbase is project management software built specifically for small agencies running client work. Most project management tools are built for internal teams. They treat clients as an afterthought: invite a client to a project and they see everything or nothing. Work for one client is scattered across projects, with no single place to see it all. And you don't find out if a project was profitable until it's too late. Upbase is built around the client, not the project.

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.
