Here’s why people don’t like Kantata

The implementation was not well executed. We basically had to figure it out on our own. The “integrations” through their integration tool are very poorly built and the tool is terrible. It gets the basics right but more advanced features like the Insights reporting add on are poorly executed. … Manoj K.
Kantata review on Capterra
The platform is a complete failure. It’s terrible. Training during implementation was not good. We’ve learned more on our own in a few classes. Time entry is weak and poorly designed. Lacks subprojects. User permissions are all or nothing in most cases. …Kassy G.
Kantata review on Capterra
It’s very frustrating when you need to allocate the same amount of time per user across a long period. You have to go in individually to each week to add that time. Interface is sluggish and lacks real time reporting. With the price tag, the team is forced to learn it and integrate it themselves which in turn results in improper use of the tool. … Mustafa H., Practice Manager in the IT Services industry
Kantata review on Capterra
The product is very complex and requires a steep learning curve. Certain features are very difficult to use. … Cameron S.
Kantata review on Capterra
What I like the least about Kantata is their customer support service isn’t the greatest and the software has days where it runs slowly. … Manoj K.
Kantata review on Capterra
I don’t like the limitations on setting boundaries on projects. Kantata requires much more manual work than our last CRM in the invoicing and expense categories. There are some things that just don’t make sense to me, like having the ability to mark expenses as paid. We’ve had to create a tracking system outside of Kantata in order to deal with expenses. I also don’t like that administrators can’t update/edit expenses. …
Kantata review on Capterra
Customer support doesn’t always understand the ask fully, and often need to get referred higher up. Insights/Reporting is a powerful tool, but lacking some of the training to go with it and how best to use. …
Kantata review on G2
The only dislikes I have now are the fact that checklist items don’t have to be checked off to mark a task complete, the system doesn’t send out follow-up or reminder notifications/emails to remind members when a due date is coming up, if a due date is missed, or if a comment/tag hasn’t been responded to in a certain amount of time. Finally, the mobile platform/site is not good. … Rachel

Summary of connectors and integrations

What is Kantata used for?

Kantata – formerly Mavenlink – is a legacy project management tool focused on traditional project tracking. While it helps manage projects, it lacks the crucial ability to handle repeatable processes – which is what most growing businesses actually need. Unlike Tallyfy, which specializes in streamlining recurring workflows, Kantata remains stuck in the old-school project management mindset that doesn’t scale well for modern operations.

What exactly is Tallyfy and how is it different?

Tallyfy is a modern workflow management system that transforms how teams work together. It moves beyond simple project tracking to create streamlined, trackable workflows that eliminate manual effort and chaos. The system helps teams save around 2 hours per person daily through smart delegation, consistent process execution, and intelligent automation. Unlike project-focused tools like Kantata, Tallyfy understands that successful businesses run on repeatable processes, not just one-off projects.

Why is process management better than project management?

Process management, which Tallyfy specializes in, creates predictable, repeatable, and improvable operations. While Kantata focuses on managing one-off projects, Tallyfy helps you build scalable operations that can be automated and optimized over time. As W. Edwards Deming famously said, “If you can’t describe what you’re doing as a process, you don’t know what you’re doing.” This philosophy is at the heart of why process management trumps project management for growing businesses.

Does Kantata have a discount for certain countries?

Kantata doesn’t offer any GDP-based pricing or country-specific discounts. In contrast, Tallyfy shows real understanding of global markets by offering lifetime discounts up to 90% based on each country’s GDP per capita. This thoughtful approach ensures fair pricing worldwide, making powerful workflow management accessible to businesses everywhere.

How does Tallyfy handle process improvement?

Tallyfy makes process improvement simple and collaborative through its elegant feedback system. Users can leave comments directly within workflows, which go straight to process owners for review. This creates a continuous improvement cycle that’s missing in project-focused tools like Kantata. The result is processes that get better over time, leading to compound efficiency gains.

How does Tallyfy integrate AI compared to Kantata?

Tallyfy takes a practical approach to AI integration, focusing on real business value rather than gimmicks. The system can handle automatic file uploads and SOP migration, and is ready for computer vision AI that can control your mouse and keyboard for true automation. Unlike Kantata’s limited automation options, Tallyfy’s AI implementation is thoughtful and focused on actual workflow improvements.

What are the key problems with Kantata?

Kantata’s main weakness is its focus on project management rather than process management. This means it can’t handle repeatable workflows effectively, lacks proper automation capabilities, and doesn’t support continuous improvement cycles. It’s also missing country-specific pricing and advanced security features like BIMI and HSTS standards that Tallyfy offers.

How can I see what customers say about Tallyfy?

You can check out real customer success stories and reviews at Tallyfy’s customer page. Unlike Kantata’s generic testimonials, Tallyfy’s customers share specific examples of how process management transformed their operations and delivered measurable results.

Does Tallyfy offer free help and services?

Yes, Tallyfy provides free professional services to ensure your success, unlike Kantata’s paid consulting model. To learn more about these free services and get started, you can schedule a chat with our team.
