Scoro

Overview

Scoro is an AI-powered professional services platform that brings project delivery, resource planning, and financial work together. It is best suited to consultancies and agencies that need to manage client work alongside its commercial side. Firms should weigh that breadth against a five-user minimum and per-user pricing based on selected apps.

Key features

Project delivery and resourcing

The Deliver app includes project templates, retainer management, Gantt charts with dependencies, timelines, phases, and milestones. Those tools address both recurring engagements and work with multiple stages, making Scoro more relevant to firms coordinating client delivery than teams looking only for a basic task list. Resource planning is part of the platform’s focus, though the supplied plan combinations determine which apps a team gets.

Financial workflows

Scoro’s apps cover quote and budget building, cost and margin planning, expense management, invoices, recurring billing, and financial reports. This breadth can connect project execution to the financial work around it, particularly for firms that need to follow estimates through to billing. The trade-off is that these capabilities are split across app combinations: a team should match the plan to its workflow rather than assume every tier includes every financial tool.

Integrations, API, and AI

Integrations include Google Calendar, MS Exchange, Dropbox, Google Drive, Zapier, BambooHR, Salesforce, HubSpot, QuickBooks, Xero, Stripe, Sage Intacct, and Jira. The API and MCP server provide further connection options. Add-ons and integrations are priced separately, although some integrations are included for free, so costs may extend beyond the per-user plan price.

Scoro’s ELI AI assistant receives 80 credits per user each month on Standard and 120 on Enterprise. These are stated allowances, not unlimited usage; the supplied plan prices are app-based and do not map those named tiers to the four plans below.

Security and support

Scoro Software OÜ is ISO 27001 certified, supports optional two-step verification and SSO, and says its software is penetration tested annually. Infrastructure runs on AWS, clients can specify a data region, and client databases and files are backed up daily. Technical support is available by email, with onboarding help from implementation experts. These provisions may matter to firms handling client and financial work, while SSO is optional rather than a universal baseline.

Pricing

Scoro has no free plan. It offers a free 14-day trial with no credit card required, and every plan requires at least five users. Prices are per user and depend on selected apps; annual billing gives a 13–17% discount depending on currency and combination. Add-ons and integrations may cost extra.

The two middle plans cost the same in the stated USD prices but favor different workflows: choose Projects & Resources for resource management, or Quote to Cash for estimating and invoicing. End-to-end costs more, but includes all eight core apps and both advanced modules.

Platforms

Scoro supports web, macOS, and Windows, as well as iOS and Android. It also provides an API. The software works in modern browsers and on desktop and laptop operating systems; mobile operating systems are supported through a browser.

Who it's for

Scoro is purpose-built for consultancies, agencies, IT firms, and architecture and engineering businesses. It is a strong candidate where project delivery, resource planning, and financial workflows need to sit in one platform. It is less compelling for solo professionals and small teams because of the five-user minimum, or for buyers who only need a narrow project tool and would not use the broader app set.

Pros and cons

Broad delivery-to-finance coverage: project tools sit alongside estimating, billing, expenses, and financial reporting, suiting firms that want those workflows connected.

Useful project structure: templates, retainers, dependencies, phases, and milestones accommodate recurring and multi-stage client work.

Choice of workflow bundles: the two $29 a month plans serve different priorities, so teams can select resource coverage or estimate-to-invoice coverage.

Five-user minimum: the entry plan is not accessible as a one-seat purchase, limiting its fit for solo operators and very small teams.

Costs can extend beyond the plan: separately priced add-ons and integrations can raise the total, while annual discounts vary by currency and combination.

Mobile browser access: mobile operating systems are supported through a browser, rather than the stated native app access in the platform facts.

Alternatives

For a different way to compare the category, see Agency Project Management Software, Project Accounting Software, Professional Services Accounting Software, Professional Services Automation Software, Resource Management Software, and Capacity Planning Software.

TimeLog is a paid alternative with a free trial and a Starter plan at €14 a month per user, covering time and expense logging, project management features, and invoicing for time spent. It is worth considering when those listed capabilities and its lower stated per-user price suit the team better.

Deltek Maconomy is an enterprise ERP for professional services firms with pricing by demo request. Consider it when an enterprise ERP is the requirement and a demo-based pricing route is acceptable.

TideFlow has a free plan for up to one user, two workspaces, and three projects, with unlimited tasks, profitability reports, a client portal, and file share links. It is a more suitable starting point for an individual who wants a free plan and web access.

BQE CORE is another paid alternative with a free trial; its CRM module is optional and priced by quote. Consider it if you want to evaluate a separate CRM module through a quote-based process.

FunctionFox is a paid alternative with a free trial; its Classic plan costs $12.75 a month and has a three-user minimum, with unlimited clients and projects. It may suit a smaller team seeking those stated limits at a lower entry price.

Infor Learning Management System is another paid alternative with a free trial.

projectfacts is a paid alternative with a free trial and Android, iOS, API, self-hosted, and web platforms. Consider it if self-hosted access is a priority.

Streamtime is a freemium alternative with a free trial and web, iOS, and API platforms. Its subscription price is based on team size, annual billing, and expected product use, making it an option for buyers comparing a usage-based subscription approach.

Verdict

Scoro is a strong choice for a professional services firm that wants project delivery, resourcing, and financial workflows under one roof. Its differentiator is the range of work it brings together, but the five-user minimum and app-dependent pricing make it a poor match for solo users or buyers who need only one narrow capability. Choose a plan by the workflow it actually covers, and use the trial to assess that fit before committing.
