Why teams look for a Scoro alternative
Scoro is one platform for projects, resourcing and finances, aimed at consultancies, agencies and engineering firms. It is strong where many tools are thin: quoting, a sales CRM, resource planning, and quoted-versus-actual and work-in-progress (WIP) reports. Few leave it for missing features; PLYNTUM vs Scoro covers the head-to-head. The usual reasons are these.
- The price takes working out. Scoro sells app combinations from €15 to €52 per user a month (read 14 September 2026). The billing cycle is not labelled, annual billing saves 13–17%, and onboarding and add-ons are charged separately. You know the real figure only after choosing apps and asking.
- A 5-user minimum. A three-person studio pays for five.
- Depth means set-up. Quotes, CRM stages, resource plans and reports each need configuring. If your team mainly uses projects, time and invoices, that effort goes on parts left idle.
- The language. If your team works in Georgian, check which interface languages Scoro offers. PLYNTUM’s interface is in Georgian and English.
If every job starts with a quote and your pipeline lives in Scoro, most tools on this list are a step down on the commercial side, PLYNTUM included: its quoting and sales CRM are planned, not available.
How to choose a Scoro alternative
Start from what you actually use in Scoro.
- Do you quote before every job? If quotes protect your margins, you need a tool that quotes. Accelo runs from quote to invoice and Productive has a sales pipeline today. PLYNTUM does not quote yet.
- How big are you, and how fast are you hiring? Kantata is built for larger services organisations, Paymo for small teams. Per-user prices grow with each hire; PLYNTUM prices a workspace with members included.
- Who keeps the books? Workamajig includes full accounting with a general ledger. PLYNTUM does not.
- Do you run more than one company? In PLYNTUM each company is its own workspace with its own plan and billing. Ask Scoro how it prices extra companies, then compare totals, not per-user rates.
Prices are the vendors’ own, read 14 September 2026, excluding tax, on annual billing unless stated; 10-person costs are arithmetic, not quotes. Nothing is ranked, and PLYNTUM, which we make, has its own section.
Seven Scoro alternatives
Productive
Productive is agency software for resources, projects and finances, made for agencies and consultancies. For a Scoro team that sells as well as delivers, it is the closest match: its sales pipeline is available today.
Professional is $25 per user a month billed annually ($29 monthly), or $250 for 10 users, with a 3-seat minimum and a 14-day trial (read 14 September 2026). The interface is in English only. PLYNTUM vs Productive · Productive alternatives
Best for: agencies and consultancies that want a sales pipeline at a published price.
Teamwork.com
Teamwork.com is professional services software for client projects, resources and financials. Accelerate is $24.99 per user a month billed annually, $249.90 for 10 users, and there is a free plan for up to 5 users and a 14-day trial (read 14 September 2026).
If quoting and the CRM are why you chose Scoro, check how Teamwork.com covers them. PLYNTUM vs Teamwork.com
Best for: teams that want a published per-user price and a free plan to start on.
Accelo
Accelo is professional services automation for client work from quote to invoice. Quotes, retainers, tickets and contracts connect to the work and the invoice, for established firms with settled processes.
It comes closest to Scoro’s commercial depth. But if Scoro’s price was hard to pin down, Accelo publishes no price and no trial at all (read 14 September 2026). PLYNTUM vs Accelo
Best for: established firms that need quotes, retainers and contracts through to the invoice.
Kantata
Kantata, formerly Mavenlink and since merged with Kimble, is PSA for larger services organisations. It is strong on resource forecasting, skills matching and revenue-level financial management.
If Scoro’s resource planning has become too small for you, this is the step up. It publishes no price (read 14 September 2026), so you cannot check the cost without a sales call. PLYNTUM vs Kantata
Best for: larger services organisations that forecast resources and staff by skill.
Function Point
Function Point is agency management software for creative and marketing agencies. Standardize is $53 and Optimize $62 per user a month billed annually ($58 and $68 monthly), plus an onboarding fee; no free trial is stated (read 14 September 2026).
Ten users on Standardize cost $530 a month before onboarding. Like Scoro, it charges for set-up. PLYNTUM vs Function Point
Best for: creative and marketing agencies that want software built only for agencies.
Workamajig
Workamajig is all-in-one agency management that includes full accounting with a general ledger. That is where it goes further than Scoro or PLYNTUM.
The trade-off is commitment. It is $49 per user a month, billed monthly, with a 10-user minimum ($490 a month), and implementation takes 2–3 months (read 14 September 2026). PLYNTUM vs Workamajig
Best for: agencies of 10 or more that want accounting and projects in one system.
Paymo
Paymo is work management with time tracking and invoicing for small teams and freelancers. It is free for one user and has a 15-day trial. Plus is $15.90 per user a month, billed monthly: $159 for 10 users, before introductory offers (read 14 September 2026).
It is the lightest move here. Paymo is built for time and invoices, not for the quoting, CRM and WIP reporting Scoro is known for. PLYNTUM vs Paymo
Best for: small teams and freelancers who want time and invoices with little set-up.

Where PLYNTUM fits, and where it does not
What it covers
PLYNTUM is business management software for service companies. Projects and tasks, clients, people and capacity, time, invoices, expenses and receivables, approvals and team chat share one workspace. More on client and project management.
- Hours on a task. Time is entered by hand against a task, which belongs to a project and a client. From Core, a manager approves timesheets.
- Profit per project. Approved hours become cost at each person’s loaded hourly cost and, with direct expenses, are set against the project value. Salary figures are visible to leadership only. See finance.
- Billing. Invoices and receivables on every plan; recurring invoices and a scoped client portal from Core.
The price, worked through
PLYNTUM is priced per workspace with members included: Launch $55 a month for 5 members, Core $150 for 10 ($120 a month billed annually, $1,440 a year) and Scale $450 for 25. Only Launch has a 7-day free trial.
Scoro’s 10-user figure in the table above, €150–€520 a month, is a range: 10 × €15 at the low end, 10 × €52 at the high end, depending on the apps you choose. It is not a quote. The billing cycle is not labelled, annual billing takes 13–17% off, and onboarding and add-ons come on top (read 14 September 2026). At the low end, Scoro and PLYNTUM Core are similar numbers in different currencies, so compare what each includes. For 5 people, Scoro’s minimum is €75–€260 a month; Launch is $55 but lacks timesheet approval, recurring invoices and the client portal. See PLYNTUM pricing.
Several companies
In PLYNTUM each company is its own workspace, with its own clients, projects, members, plan and billing. A new company workspace starts with its own sign-up and 7-day Launch trial. One person can belong to several workspaces and switch between them with one sign-in. Two 10-person companies on Core are two Core plans: $300 a month, or $240 billed annually.
What PLYNTUM does not do
- No quoting or sales CRM yet. Both are planned, with no release date, and client proposals are part of that plan. Scoro has them today.
- No quote to measure against. Profitability sets approved hours and direct expenses against the project value, so there is no quoted-versus-actual view.
- Not accounting software. No ledger, bank feeds, tax filing or payroll.
- Hours are typed in. Private desktop time capture is in development; nothing is captured automatically today.
When to stay with Scoro
- Your work starts with a quote. If you manage margin against quotes with quoted-versus-actual and WIP reports, Scoro does that today and PLYNTUM does not.
- Your sales team lives in the CRM. Moving delivery without deals splits one process across two systems.
- Resource planning is what you use most. Then compare Scoro with Kantata, not with lighter tools.
- The set-up is paid for and working. If onboarding is paid for and the team uses it, a switch costs time as well as money.
- You are mid-contract. On annual billing, wait for the renewal date.
Moving from Scoro
PLYNTUM has no importer for Scoro data, so the move is exports plus manual set-up.
- Export before you cancel. Clients, open projects with budgets or fees, their time entries, rates and unpaid invoices. Keep the full exports as an archive.
- Keep quotes and deals safe. PLYNTUM has no place for quotes or a pipeline yet. Save accepted quotes as files on the project, and keep open deals in Scoro or a separate CRM until PLYNTUM’s CRM is available.
- Set up clients, then projects, then open tasks. Every hour belongs to a task in a project for a client. Add each person’s loaded hourly cost and each project’s value, so profitability has something to measure.
- Bring open balances across. Enter unpaid invoices so receivables do not slip between systems.
- Run both for two weeks. Compare hours per project weekly, and invoice from PLYNTUM once the totals match.
Try one real client on Launch’s 7-day trial first; timesheet approval and recurring invoices need Core. If you want help planning the move, write to us.
