What differentiates Workday Professional Services Automation from other similar products?

Traditionally, one of the main differences between PSA and ERP is that ERP was built to manage tangible assets such as products, goods and stock. PSA on the other hand, is more focused on managing intangible assets and the service-based industry, such as consultants and accountants. This means PSA software had a greater emphasis on modules like project management and resource utilization.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Integrated project accounting with complete visibility and access to cost and sales tracking and budget and forecasting data Integrated budget and planning with access to workload and individual calendar planning Integrated time and expense tools which help make life easier for your teams Integrated invoicing that allows time and expense entries flow seamlessly through an electronical approval process into an invoice

What do you dislike most about this product?

Great product with inbuilt customization but a bit costly.Today’s modern solutions however, have evolved to a point where both solutions can be complementary but also, interchangeable.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

It provides time and expense management tools that let you track actual effort, forecast remaining effort for each project activity task, record costs, plus automate billing and invoicing
