Intuit Enterprise Suite vs. Zoho Projects

We are a small non-profit organization and this product has allowed us to save time and resources by providing a platform for new and existing employees to get their information all in one place. Paying bills and receiving revenue is easy to track in this manner and customer support has been very effective when we need them.

My work involves projects of 5-15 people with numerous projects running simultaneously. Prior to Zoho, I did not have a central location from which to view all project statuses at once. Zoho looks to provide this and also looks like it will deliver. I am anxious to see how our organization's use of it develops. At this time, I feel I am likely to recommend Zoho Projects because my organization has made great software decisions in the past so I have a level of trust already that the research has been done that Zoho is the best solution for our line of work.

• Ease of processing payroll and providing all necessary reports and documents in one software such as tax forms and forms related to the financials.
• Ease of creating purchase orders to tie to vendor bills to track purchases made by the organization.
• Ease of creating financial reports with various filters and exporting them to PDF or excel for a simpler read and study of profit vs. losses.

• Swiss Army Knife: The suite of Zoho projects can be tailored to fit the needs of any business. It's great to have a bunch of different software offerings that will work together seamlessly.
• Task Customization: Zoho allows you to customize your tasks more than other platforms (add start dates, due dates, dependencies, subtasks...)

Incentivized

• Reports could be more tailored to Construction
• Budgets Can Be Refined a little more
• Credit Card and Lines of Credit Could be Larger for Enterprise Customers

• More flexibility on making the user interface more compact (like Excel or MSP). Current interface is well spaced, but some users may like a more compact view.
• More simplified Gantt Charts that help us understand progress and dependencies.
• Ability to export projects to Excel for sharing with others we can't/don't want to bring on to Zoho projects

Because I love the software and the people behind it are passionate about building the features to support business growth. They have built so many features I have asked for and it gets better and better

Zoho has been able to fit the needs of our Engineering organization. The employees and management that are using it have not found a 'catastrophic' reason to discontinue use. Although certain features and better support mechanisms would be much better, it has been able to keep with both basic needs and more advanced ones. A majority of the company has enjoyed the basic interface it offers, the apps it has for iPhone and Blackberry, the mobility of updating a project without needing to be connected to any type of server. There are still improvements that can be made in future releases but as the person who originally purchased the solution for our company, I have found it to be an excellently priced solution in the functionality it offers.

IES has been an excellent partner of Gridmatic and they continue to enhance on their process. Due to dev in reporting is the reason I am unable to give 10 rating.

Zoho Projects is an easy project management tool to use. It provides all the functionality that we required for handling projects. We can easily create personal forms for projects and tasks, allowing us to add and report on our own desire. Apart from this we can create and edit documents in real time which saves our time. This allows us to share text docs, presentations, tables with the whole team and we can work on them together

Has not been down to my knowledge.

Speed meets my expectations.

Excellent. I am the first Lighthouse customer and I see first hand that their team cares, they care about not just the features but about their customers and their success. They truly want their customers to succeed

Although it might lack intuitiveness, once you get a hang of how Zoho Projects works, you can do a LOT. The impact good project management has on profitability is huge, and it has helped not only improve communication and coordination when working on a project, but more importantly have adequate tracking of time, due dates and potential bottle necks

Incentivized

Intuit Enterprise Suite reports are so much better. There are many to choose from and users can build reports specific to their needs. Reconciling bank accounts is so much easier. The capability Intuit Enterprise Suite has to make the process simple means there is less time spent with recons being out of balance.

Zoho Projects provides a more limited set of functionality and customization options than other task/bug trackers on the market, but what it lacks in functionality it makes up for in ease of use. It probably has 80-90% of the features of its competitors but takes about a third of the time to get up and running and realizing value.

• QuickBooks supplies a platform for basic accounting
• It allows us to operate our business from a banking and taxes perspective.
• It could do much more from a business management perspective.

• Unfortunately, prior to creating Project Task Templates we'd occasionally miss a step and something that was necessary would be overlooked.
• The creation of the Project Templates was a team collaborative effort to make sure that everyone had some input as different people was integral to specific projects.
• It took a little while to learn some of the more tricked out features like task dependency but even starting out with the most basic of features was very significant.
