With farmerswife, we have been able streamline our workflow. Having a quick, consistent, and reliable way for everyone at Aligned to track a project as it goes through the production process has been a huge time-saver, and results in the ability to manage a larger volume of projects more effectively.
THE CHALLENGE
We have been in business for over 7 years. We have seen consistent growth over that time and needed to find a way to better streamline the process of managing projects from proposal to final delivery.
Before farmerswife we were using a multitude of different services and software to manage a project. On any given project we were using Excel, Word, Dropbox, Google Docs and Google Drive to track and document a project’s details as it progressed from start to completion.
We needed one place to track our operations. Before farmerswife, we did not have a consistent place to help keep our projects organized. We were spending more time than was needed doing tasks that could be streamlined.
THE SOLUTION
We have been using farmerswife for a year and a half. When we first started using farmerswife, it was a little bit overwhelming understanding the way it should be configured for our business. That almost infinite customization quickly turned in to one of our favorite features. We are confident that farmerswife will be able to adapt and grow with our needs.
We use farmerswife for just about everything. Creating estimates, scheduling, tracking costs and billable time, saving client details, tracking employee schedules and maintaining a list of freelance crews are some of the features we rely on the most.
farmerswife has made our operations way more efficient. We have been able to track details more accurately during a project. We have a consistent place to look for client and project-related information. The ability to use farmerswife in the field has also been a great addition to our workflow.

THE SUPPORT
farmerswife support has been amazing to work with. When we were in the evaluating process, the support team worked with us to make sure farmerswife was going to be able to meet our needs. During onboarding, the support team made sure we had the knowledge we needed to successfully integrate farmerswife into our workflow. We have recently implemented the Advanced Personnel Management feature of farmerswife into our workflow, and the support and training we have received has been amazing.
