Field Reports

From the firms that made the switch.

"

We were running 14 active SOWs across three platforms and spending half our ops budget on reconciliation. ConsultFlow cut our close cycle from three weeks to four days. I can now see margin on every engagement before the client sends their first invoice dispute.

14 → 4 day close cycle

I was the copy-paste person between Salesforce and our PM tool. Literally four hours every Monday. That job doesn't exist anymore. ConsultFlow does it in real time and flags discrepancies I would have missed entirely — including a $47K billing gap on a retainer.

My associates were spending 30% of their time on admin that had nothing to do with the client. Now utilization is at 87% — up from 63% — and the work they're doing is actually billable. The ROI conversation with our CFO lasted about six minutes.

63% → 87% utilization
