What is professional services automation software?

Professional services automation (PSA) software is designed to assist service-based companies that offer services to their customers mostly on a project or per-hour basis. It offers features that allow professional service firms to manage most of their day-to-day tasks efficiently and deliver customer projects on time, on budget, and according to the customer’s requirements. With professional services automation (PSA) software in place, service firms don't have to waste time (or money) learning multiple disconnected tools to manage different parts of the project lifecycle; they can manage it all on a single system.

Who can benefit from PSA software?

All service-oriented firms can benefit. To list a few:

benefit from PSA software
  • Creative and marketing agencies
