Why choose Scoro over CMap?

 A true end-to-end solution

If you want CRM, finance, and delivery to work in one platform, Scoro is the stronger choice for an end-to-end PSA that removes manual steps and disconnected workflows.

Built-in CRM & pipeline

Scoro lets you manage relationships and track a real sales pipeline in one place. Move a deal stage and weighted revenue updates automatically. CMap’s CRM is very light, there is no native pipeline, and you need to manually move the deal from opportunity to project stage.

 

Deeper finance layer

Scoro handles billing with configurable line-item taxes, multi-currency projects, and automatic FX conversions, all connected to mature accounting solutions, reducing manual adjustments and helping to minimize discrepancies across currencies and entities.

 

Granular project management

Plan and deliver work in Scoro with task-level schedules, Gantt dependencies, and collaboration. CMap’s missing tools like dependencies and richer task views make it harder for teams to coordinate the day-to-day.

Key differentiators

Advanced connectivity

  • Build powerful, custom connections without friction with Scoro’s comprehensive open API.
  • Connect to thousands of apps instantly and scale through Scoro’s deep integrations with Zapier.
  • Connect Scoro to LLMs like Claude or ChatGPT to manage projects via natural language, or run complex multi-tool workflows with a single prompt.
