What is the difference between COR and tools like Monday, Asana or Trello?
Monday, Asana and Trello are general-purpose task management tools. COR adds the financial layer they don't cover: automated time tracking, current and forecasted project profitability, rework and deviation detection, and contract and fee management. In the comparison on this page, none of the three covers those features.
Does COR replace my project management tool?
Yes. COR includes project and task management with Gantt charts, client collaboration and access, and full project traceability. The difference is that it also measures the financial impact of that work, so you don't need a separate tool to know whether a project was profitable.
How does COR compare to Kantata or Workfront?
Kantata and Workfront are the closest alternatives in financial features: both cover profitability, capacity planning and fee management. COR stands out with real-time comments and corrections on deliverables, and with full project traceability, a feature the comparison does not show for Workfront.
What does an agency gain by switching to COR?
Three concrete things: negotiating better fees with real data on time spent and profitability per client, catching deviations and rework before they hit your operating margin, and maximizing the share of hours that generate revenue with smart automation.
Does COR work for consulting firms, not just agencies?
Yes. Project revenue and cost management, team capacity planning and team analysis by role and position apply just as well to professional services firms that bill by the hour and by project.
Does COR include Business Intelligence without extra tools?
Yes. COR comes with built-in Business Intelligence and advanced dashboards, plus consultative Success Management. You don't need to connect a separate BI tool to read your profitability metrics.
