See everything that's happening across your agency in real time. Synergist's agency management software brings all your information into one place. Giving you clear visibility of how your agency is performing, which areas are the most profitable and how well you’re utilising resources, so you can make real-time decisions that take your agency forward.
Keep track of all your opportunities and jobs in one system for complete visibility of revenue and capacity.
Instantly see a live forecast of your pipeline based on % probability, billings and profit. Track sales performance against targets. And see where you have capacity to take on extra work, so you can look to fill gaps... or where you might have resourcing issues!
Automated task reminders help you keep on top of new business. Plus briefs, estimates and communications are all stored against the opportunity, so when it’s ready to convert to a live job, all the information is there.

“Synergist is the cornerstone of the business. It has given us the opportunity to look three, six, nine months down the line in terms of where we need people, where projects are dropping off and things are starting up. It helps us in every way possible.”
Instantly see how much has been invoiced (or recognised) versus planned for each period.
Billing plans let you invoice staged payments based on set dates or project milestones, and forecast revenue and profit by month. Plus, the advanced revenue recognition feature allows you to adjust the amount of turnover or profit you recognise to sit in line with work in progress (WIP).
Purchase management tools ensure costs are recorded to the correct job and give you control over spending. Manage suppliers and purchase approvals, control mark-ups or discounts, and store all related information and invoices in one place.

“We have our finger on the pulse. We can see any changes coming and don’t get caught by surprise. It’s saving us so much time too – where one particular report used to take us three days to create, now it takes me two hours!”
Helen Flanders, Operations Director, Something Big - a creative communications agency based in Surrey
Filling in timesheets isn't many peoples' favourite activity, especially in busy agencies. That's why Synergist makes it as simple and quick as possible.
Timesheets are pre-populated with the right details - minimising the chance of putting time against the wrong job number - and users can use the timers to track time at the same time as they’re working on it.
The mobile app makes it simple to enter expenses and upload receipts. And expense approval workflows make sure costs are accurately allocated to the right job and passed on.
