For Intuit, Projectworks is one of a number of software providers they are adding to their new QSP program. Now the focus is on creating an app ecosystem powerful enough to do two things: give QuickBooks Desktop customers good reason to move to Intuit’s cloud offerings, where they can benefit from the ease of integrating with a variety of platforms, and also continue to serve customers as they grow into the mid-market segment.

A main aim of the relationship for both parties is to entice the on-premise hold-outs to migrate to the cloud. “When they see what real integration can do for them,” said Matt Hayter, CEO of Projectworks, “even consultancies that have said ‘no’ to the cloud for years, will find it difficult to resist the benefits of access-anywhere, real-time resource management, project budget burn, and real time margin reporting. Not to mention being able to submit an expense or timesheet through your phone, which is a real must for any modern business.”

Professional Services businesses that leverage QuickBooks Online with Projectworks will benefit from a comprehensive business management system that helps to answer the two most important questions to any consultancy – are we making good margin, and is my team properly utilized? All the while ensuring expenses are easily claimed and invoices go out on time, without double handling data. Together the platforms enable small to midsize businesses to effectively manage their resources, work and invoicing while providing the information they need to scale.
