anaging projects from sales to
employee scheduling and bil-
ling is a challenge for all pro-
fessional services companies.
Many times the real-time information re-
garding upcoming sales, projects and
resources is scattered in too many places,
like combination of different CRM, project
management, time tracking and billing
systems or Excel sheets and paper docu-
ments. Based onVisma’s survey for Nordic
project companies, 2.5 % of billable work
never gets billed and 8 % of work hours are
reported inaccurately.
Visma Severa is part of Visma’s broad
cloud services family and it can be used
with any device, anytime. All-in-one work
management solution helps to manage
projects from sales to billing. It benefits
professional and project based work and
is especially suitable for small to medium
size advertisement agencies, engineering
companies, consulting firms and IT com-
panies. For most companies already 5%
improvement in efficiency of work man-
agement and more accurate billing boosts
the bottom line by 50%.
“
From the start in 2004, we have had two
main things in our product development
DNA. Firstly, we bring real value to our cli-
ents’ project workflow. Secondly, we reach
the best usability in the marketplace,” ex-
plains the MD of Visma Severa,
Ari-Pekka
Salovaara
.
Visma Severa is an easily scalable solu-
tion that grows in tandem with the chang-
ing needs.
“
There are always changes in business
plans such as introducing new servic-
es for the market or establishing new of-
fices with new employees. It is important
that the system can be adapted for these
changes in minutes,” tells Sales Director
Jussi Pekkala
.
The open application program interface
(
API) makes it compatible with dozens of
financial management programs, Google
Drive and Microsoft Exchange.
“

growing work management tool in our
field in Scandinavia with the biggest mar-
ket share. Usability, flexibility and mobile
