How Jesto's consulting firm project management software beats legacy PSA

Mavenlink, Kantata, and Replicon cost $40-60 per user per month and take 3 months to implement. Jesto delivers the same professional services automation at $2.99/user/month with a 5-minute setup.

Legacy PSA Tools (Mavenlink, Kantata, Replicon)

  • $40 to $60 per consultant per month with annual contracts and seat minimums
  • 3 to 6 month implementation projects with paid consultants just to launch
  • Consultants resist filling timesheets. Utilization and realization stay murky
  • Separate billing, time, resourcing, and project tools that never quite reconcile
  • Partners discover write-offs and budget overruns weeks after the engagement closes

Jesto Consulting Firm Project Management Software

  • $2.99 per consultant per month, monthly billing, free up to 5 users forever
  • 5-minute setup, ready-made engagement templates, your first project live the same day
  • Mobile time entry consultants actually use, with offline capture from client sites
  • Engagement management, timesheets, billing, resourcing, and invoicing in one workspace
  • Live profitability, utilization, and realization dashboards partners review every Monday
