"Synergy is simple and effective. It does what it needs to without hassle or costing my excessive time."

Callum Dyer

OFR Consultants

"Synergy helps me know that our projects are being managed properly and gives me a greater understanding of their true value. I think it's the best tool we've got."

Carl Bassett

DRAC Consulting

"There's lots of different project management type software out there'...'but we use the flexibility of Synergy to see an incredible level of detail or just as a broad-brush view - that side of it is really easy and user-friendly. It fits into the industry that we're working in."

Logan McLennan

RDCL

“If you’re running architecture projects, the whole thing, in terms of timekeeping and billing, it’s all about the stage nature of projects. Partly because you quote in stages, but also some stages get billed differently, some are fixed fee, some are hourly rates.”

Jake Egdley

Edgley Design

"The latest document management update to Total Synergy is a huge improvement. Large document transmittals now take less than a third of the time, and the room for human error has been drastically reduced. The software now feels like it competes with other big-name document control platforms."

Matt Seddon

Joe Adsett Architects

"A great tool for project and business management. It's easy to get a snapshot of the whole business or your own projects, which is very useful."

Richa Potdar

Geotesta

"Great tool for managing multiple projects and people in a team! The overall experience is great."

Swapnil Madiwale

McVeigh

"Synergy is very user friendly, the ease of the financial management of projects is a very positive feature. The dashboard is informative at a glance and the analytics side of the program is useful for directors and administrators. Highly recommend."

Renee Phelps

Watson Young Architects

“If you want projects to be well-resolved, then a lot of time goes into it. And that’s where Synergy comes in.”

Jake Egdley

Edgley Design

"With Synergy software, the ability to use a combination of capped fees, inspection rates, day rates, hourly rates and whatever else we need, on a single project allows us to be a lot more flexible, which is great — and then we can look at the project financials really easily.”

Logan McLennan

RDCL

"We love that Total Synergy syncs with our financial system. This saves the business countless hours in double handling, so much more efficient and accurate. We love the UI, it's so user friendly and also that it's possible to have multiple screens open at once."

Tresca Cullen

Baldasso Cortese

"Before I set up my business I had discussed program integration with my accountant in order to create a seamless process for both parties. This allows my tracking to be transparent which in turn allows the accounting side to work in unison without fault. This is what I like most about Synergy. No fuss."

Ari Karabatos

Ari Karabatos Architecture Pty Ltd

"Easy to use. Clear interface. It was generally a painless experience moving to Synergy."

Marek Sekowski

Graham Handley Architects

"Synergy transformed the management of our projects and helped us recover fees easier. Synergy is very easy to use and it is already set up for engineering and architectural practices. Synergy is an excellent platform that can help managers gain deep insight into the profitability and performance of each project. It is a very easy software to introduce to the daily operations of an engineering practice."

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Capterra. A solid option for your growing business
Overall: Synergy allows us to track our time more effectively and handle client requests with greater speed.  Pros: The ability to see exactly what time and bills are assigned to each invoice is amazing, and really helped the architects understand what my accounting department does.   Cons: The integration with QuickBooks in the US needs some work. This remains a pain point for us. Bills have to be entered twice, and that's time we can't use for something better.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Capterra. 6 years in to our Synergy experince
Overall: We are six years in and have not found an alternative that is comparable for our architectural business needs.  At times it can very frustrating to use, if for example the functionality or customization is lacking.  That said synergy has changed and developed with our business over that time.  Pros: Ability to plan and track all our projects in place.  Cons: Some of the features are lacking or clunky to use.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Capterra. Great tool for managing multiple projects and people in a team!
Overall: The overall experience is great as it provides great value compared to some pricier products used by us in the past. Pros: The timesheet adding, project information including contacts and ability to share documents directly from one platform is very helpful. Cons: I think some PIM tasks like email filing and searching folders should be incorporated into this package as done by Deltek.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Capterra. An efficient program for businesses of all sizes
Overall: Overall very happy. Pros: Before I set up my business I had discussed program integration with my accountant in order to create a seemless process for both parties. This allows my tracking to be transparent which in turn allows the accounting side to work in unison without fault. This is what I like most about Synergy. No fuss. Cons: As it is a one-stop shop for a business, from workflow management to business management, it can take some getting used to as there are quite a few moving pieces. But once you get a hang of it you can't really do without it.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Capterra. New to Synergy
Overall: We like that we can see the WIP and also manage staff time Pros: Project Management and invoicing all in one as well as scheduling Cons: Hard to say as we are still in the learning stages, so can't criticise anything yet.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Capterra. Suggested Timesheet Improvements
Pros: It is useful to track work and assess workload of the team. Cons: - The timer option in the time sheets has the potential to be much more useful. The timer could directly fill in the time sheet, in addition to what is already in that task to that dat. Then the timer would be a much more useful function (at least the option for this to be the case).- In the time sheets, there should be the option to copy and paste tasks (not the times) from previous weeks, to save having to fill it in each week when the project is ongoing. There should also be the option to copy and paste the tasks on the same week to be able to make minor changes, so one does not need to fill it in from the top down each time. These can be applied to both the time sheets and the expenses.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Capterra. "Real Time" Accurate Project Data
Overall: We can schedule and revenue in one system, slowly ridding the business of unnecessary spreadsheets.  We can constantly improve and deepen our use of the system AND are supported to do so by our customer support team. Pros: We love that TS Synchs with our Financial System, this saves the business countless hours in double handling, so much more efficient and accurate.  We love the UI, it's so user friendly and also that it's possible to have multiple screens open at once. Cons: Reporting is fiddly, but then it is in every system that is managing so much data.  Takes time to get it right but, will all the fantastic real time support, this is completely achievable.
