Switching to a unified, dedicated agency platform
Before Bonsai, Green Ape Media tried multiple software solutions, including Monday.com and Asana, both of which required significant time and effort to maintain.
We tried a lot of software, like Monday and Asana. But we spent too much time managing them. Bonsai is built for agencies, so we can focus more on client work.
These tools often fell short of providing the specific project management capabilities the agency needed.
Bonsai, however, offered a streamlined solution that integrated project management, budget tracking, and resource allocation, allowing the team to focus more on client work.
Data-driven decisions and financial insights
By providing real-time data on project financials through budget tracking and reports, such as the Project Health Report, Bonsai empowers Green Ape Media to make informed decisions and address potential budget overruns before they escalate.
With Bonsai, we can highlight project problems in before they spiral out of budget. It provides the data for us to set boundaries with our clients.
This capability has been crucial to keep all projects profitable and setting boundaries with clients to ensure sustainable growth.
Now we have time-tracking, project management and budget management in one place. We can see if we’re on track, and how profitable we are in real-time.
Optimizing workflow and resource management
Bonsai's project management features have been central to Green Ape Media's operations, enabling the team to manage projects efficiently and track budgets in real-time. Resource management allows the team to automatically allocate tasks and monitor workloads and has saved the team 2 hours per week on scheduling.
Bonsai’s resource management has saved us 2 hours every week on scheduling tasks and time across projects.
Seeing their product feedback implemented
Green Ape Media keeps up to date with all Bonsai updates and releases, providing a lot of valuable product feedback and ideas. They've especially appreciated how quickly their feedback is implemented, and how the Bonsai team takes the time to let them know personally.
We’ve been impressed with Bonsai notifying us when new features are available, and sending follow-up messages that our ideas have been implemented.
