Great business process management software.
Flowfinity allows our IT teams to create custom applications through a visual interface and facilitates real-time data collection via mobile devices, which is useful for our technical support team.
- Flowfinity offers valuable functionalities that enable the creation of custom applications, workflow automation, and real-time data collection
- It integrates with popular systems such as Salesforce, SAP, and Microsoft Dynamics
- I have no negative aspects to mention about this platform

A great experience
We are using FlowFinity to do several different things. It is our main data capture tool. Our fleet of trucks and drivers enter all delivery and pickup metrics in it on a continual basis. We use it to schedule our work orders and ensure all goods are picked up and delivered. We also use the system to gather general information throughout our business.
- FlowFinity has been a great system and has enhanced our operations
- It's easy to set up and seems to be infinitely adaptable to our business
- If we have a need we just add it to FlowFinity
- The system is light weight and does not take a lot to run
- The user interface on the mobile device and the website are great and easy to use and learn
- We have had advanced users and novice users all pick it up and use it in very little time
- Not many Cons it has really transformed how we work
- If I had to define a least favourite item it would be the reports
- I wish we could add more branding to them but that is minor to the rest of the system
Why they chose it
"In our view it was the best of the best. It met all of our needs and gave us more functionality than we wanted. Its price point was ideal. The Customer support and sales cycle was the best experience and the team were fantastic. When we compared it to the other options it was superior in what we could do and how we could do it."

Review of Flowfinity Products
Data collection from the field is easy and it is able to be audited to suit our clients' needs.
The apps are very easy to design and provide our customer with the data that is needed through importing
- The ability to be able to designate view/actions are only allowed to be assigned to Admin/Power user/regular user etc
- If you could assign each user with permissions per app or tab, it would provide a great benefit
Why they chose it
"There was more familiarity with being a longtime user of Flowfinity and it provided an Enterprise version that was a prerequisite."

Flowfinity solved our numerous field service challenges with ease and great service
We deployed a cross nation field team to visit outlets and conduct in store activities, collecting data through forms and surveys. We also needed features like gps tracking, mature data storage and extraction, cloud enabled, dashboard creation and performance tracking. Our previous solution - built specifically for our industry - was a disaster - combination of the software and the supporting team. 5-6 months in and it never worked. By contrast, Flowfinity created a partnership, held our hand day and night for 5 weeks, answered all queries in real time round the clock, and best of all - it worked. Took 5 weeks from start to finish. Simply could not be more satisfied and wish we had found the solution 6 months earlier. I highly recommend the solution and the Team.
- Flowfinity is a mature solution
- Our sales and on-board team were former clients, highly engaged advocates of the product, very knowledgeable, patient, and very thorough
- Though we are not a big client (less than 20 licenses) we were treated with respect, as important, and received amazing round the clock responses to both strategic and technical questions
- The solution is highly intuitive and easy to use
- Our development team is good, but small and stretched
- With flowfinity we were able to get to a solid usage standard, and deployed, in 5 weeks
- That's fully operational in 5 weeks
- In contrast we worked with previous solution for about 5 months and it never worked
- Like all solutions this one does not do everything we want
- Neither does any other solution we use
- What we really like about Flowfinity is that their Team takes on board our inputs, requests, and gives us honest management of our expectations around feasibility, timeframes, costs, etc
- This type of honest and transparent handling of what we want that perhaps we cannot have is difficult to find in the market - with Flowfinity we got it
Switched From
FieldEZ did not work, and all efforts to make it work failed. All involved gave it 6 months, and then we moved on.
Why they chose it
"Flowfinity customer service and engagement was excellent. Flowfinity was able to see some strategic value in working with us, and helped to structure a solution that enabled us to launch with them. This was not our experience with other solution providers."

Flowfinity Overview
Flowfinity has closed the gap between head office directors, our leadership team and our crews in the visibility of information and the speed with which we can communicate it. The application provides all of us with the same information at a glance - estimate volume by regions - upcoming work at a glance, bottlenecks to meeting deadlines, in progress and final costing outcomes. Crews use the app daily on their phones and IPADs to input real time records, checklists, signatures, safety toolbox talks and important safety initiatives. To highlight safety specifically, the Safety portal alone is worth all we've done to customize Flowfinity for our group - and it came well after the initial design! Safety is crucial in our crew environments, and we have been able to create a platform and entire section in Flowfinity devoted to communications, training and initiatives for our teams. We don't have a company with the current safety reputation we have on large sites without a team that goes home each day safely.
- Flowfinity brings our group together and creates TRANSPARENCY across the board
- We need this since our team is all over the US and head office is in Canada
- Some of the user functionality is limiting - we are so used to 'back button's and split screens in other applications and systems
- Reporting is also limited as Flowfinity captures information, and can provide the data for use, but it does not provide or currently have the ability to create customized, easy to view reporting

Verified UserBuilt a custom solution for managing a SMB - staff time tracking, client database, invoicing
-Reduced administrative overhead by about 80%
-Completely flexible to use, lets you build truly customized solution completely tailored to your business processes -Great value, because you get offline mobile forms and apps, a built-in database, cloud hosting, unlimited forms, dashboards and workflows all included -Easy to use and super fast to make changes, so you can always improve your solution and keep updating it based on user feedback -Can build all the BPM apps you need without any coding -After you build an application, you can use it on the web or on your mobile device right away as soon as you publish it -It's easy to set up data lookups from other apps, so you can manage your customers in one app and pull the information into other apps for example -It has nested data which lets you create lists with different levels, which we use for creating items in invoices -You can set up custom searches so it's easy to find whatever data you're looking for -I was able to easily set up automatic emails that alert me based on my own business rules, for example if a client doesn't come to their appointment, or is missing contact information, or if a payout rate is outside a certain threshold -They recently added dashboards, so I can see all of my invoicing and staffing information in charts and I don't have to export any data to Excel or another system to work with it, it's all in Flowfinity
-Looking forward to new product features that will be coming out, for example being able to launch into apps and activities directly from dashboards

Verified UserFlexible reliable system, easy to adapt and very good value for money.
Flowfinity has drastically reduced our paperwork and allowed us to have a live view of activities across several sites showing the status of jobs and issues found. Also the custom coding developed has reduced the amount of time engineers spend writing reports and given them more time to carry out site work. We use the system to satisfy FGas obligations in the UK HVAC industry and it works extremely well.
- Extremely easy to use and changes can be made and published very quickly
- The offline storage of data sets Flowfinity apart from its competitors and permits usage in low signal areas
- The support department are very helpful and any issues are dealt with very quickly
- To fully exploit the system to its full potential a strong background in IT/Programming is extremely beneficial
- But anybody can design and publish a basic application to users in less than a hour

Thank you Flowfinity

Cross platform support iOS + Windows Very useful for Field users working along with Office workers on the same application and being able to calloborate
- Version Updates and Changes
- During version updates, we require a lengthy window to test and deploy on multi tier environemnt (DEV, QA, PROD) which means no modifications to the application can be done
- Sometimes this can be painful as the application can't be modified for weeks

Steep learning curve, but unparalleled flexibility
We primarily use Flowfinity as a field log application and survey tool. Although designing apps can at times be a little complicated, our users have reported zero issues picking up a corporate device and going straight into the field. The ease of deployment and convenience of the end-user experience have been big successes for our field teams.
- In the environmental services sector, we frequently work with loose project parameters and clients who are uncertain of their needs
- As such, we frequently need to hit the ground running with a rough first draft of our data gathering plan and then refine it over time
- Flowfinity allows us to get started collecting data and freely modify our forms as our needs change over the course of a project, all whilst retaining integrity with our previous iterations
- Many of our projects would not be feasible without the ability to adapt over the project's lifespan
- The main downside to Flowfinity is its learning curve
- No individual component is particularly confusing, but there are many different workflows and processes involved if you want to be able to get the most out of the platform

Excellent customer service and enterprise-quality product.

- Flowfinity is easy to use, simple to develop, and painless to administer
- End users receive automatic form updates and offline data sync
- Development takes place via a web editor with advanced capabilities like calculation logic and conditional visibility
- Forms can launch and link to each other and launch other mobile apps
- New dashboard features are coming along nicely with optional TV licenses
- Data is stored in MSSQL and is easy to push/pull for 3rd party integrations with legacy, reporting, or custom apps
- Support for Android, iOS, and web clients
No cons really, maybe a few wishlist items like support for Azure websites and Azure SQL instead requiring a vm
