We've just finished uploading a new batch of Accelo videos, produced by our good friends from Relativity. These videos cover a broad range of features and benefits in Accelo - you can watch them all now on YouTube, or embedded below.
This introduction video is a relatively short overview of the whole Accelo product, and is now embedded in our homepage.
This longer (15 minute) video goes in depth into the various aspects of Accelo, taking a look at the various modules and cool features like automatic email capture, integration with Google Apps and Microsoft Exchange, and perhaps our most awesome feature, our automatical scheduling and resource utilization forecasting.
This shorter video focuses on the integrated nature of Accelo, and how by bringing together all client focused activities in a professional service business - from sales, through to projects, timesheets, service, support, retainers, scheduling and invoicing - a business can realise massive benefits compared to having multiple, disparate systems.
How busy is are your team going to be next week, or next month? With Accelo, answering this question is easy, as the product automatically provides resource utilization reports and forecasts that adapt and update as your team goes about their work. Check out this video to see how it works.
One of the coolest features of Accelo is its automatic email capture functionality. Never lose important client correspondence again with Accelo - every email your staff send to, or receive from clients, is automatically captured and indexed, and filed against the prospect, project, task or service request it is about.
Unfortunately, successfully growing a professional service business is harder than it should be, often because of a lack of systems and business processes. Systems designed for other industries are too rigid and inflexible for the needs of professional services, while manual systems that rely on staff learning and remembering what they need to do results in errors, a lack of consistency and a lot of effort from senior staff and managers. Accelo strikes a balance between consistency in processes and flexibility to provide your professional service business the platform it needs to grow much more easily.
Email, calendar, contact lists. These familiar productivity tools are the heart of any business today, and the good news is that Accelo synchronises seamlessly with two of the most common platforms - Google Apps and Microsoft Exchange - so that your team can benefit from the sales, Job Tracking, Timesheet and Scheduling functionality in Accelo while sticking with the calendar, email and address book systems they're already familiar with.
