In their own words
Magnetic
Magnetic is a web-based system for professional services firms that brings CRM, project delivery, resourcing, time tracking, billing and reporting together. When an opportunity closes, it can be converted into a project with its estimates, notes, contact history and pre-sales time. Each opportunity has a probability percentage, which feeds an automatically calculated weighted pipeline. Revenue forecasts draw on pipeline data, approved cost estimates and active project billing, with views by client and month. Magnetic also tracks time and expenses against opportunities to calculate acquisition costs. Listed integrations include Xero, Slack, Sage, Google Calendar, Zapier, QuickBooks, Campaign Monitor, Ziflow and Outlook; Zapier connects more apps. The free Solo plan is for one user. Paid Essentials starts at £9/user/mo (annual), and Pro at £17/user/mo (annual); each requires at least five users. The product is designed for agencies, consultancies, engineering firms, architects and other service businesses.
