What you can automate with Accelo

Accelo is a business management platform built specifically for professional services firms — agencies, consultancies, IT providers, accountants, and similar businesses that bill for their time and expertise. It combines project management, time tracking, client communication, quoting, invoicing, and retainer management in one system, replacing the patchwork of spreadsheets, email, and disconnected tools that most services firms cobble together. The core problem Accelo addresses is visibility. In a typical services business, project status lives in one tool, time tracking in another, invoices in a third, and client emails in everyone’s inbox. Nobody has a clear picture of profitability per client, how much time is being written off, or which projects are running over budget. Accelo connects all of these into a single view, so business owners and project managers can see what’s actually happening rather than guessing. Accelo is Australian-founded (originally from Sydney), which means it handles GST, AUD billing, and Australian business workflows natively — something that trips up US-centric alternatives. It also has a built-in client portal, automatic email capture that links conversations to the right client and project, and retainer tracking that shows utilisation against agreed hours. We connect Accelo to other systems using n8n — syncing with accounting packages like Xero, pushing project updates to Slack, or pulling sales data from your CRM. If your services firm is losing track of billable hours or can’t see project profitability clearly, our integration services can help you get Accelo working with the rest of your stack.

Accelo FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about how Accelo consultants can help with integration and implementation

Accelo is built for professional services firms that bill clients for time — IT managed services, marketing agencies, consulting firms, accounting practices, engineering companies, and similar businesses. If your revenue comes from projects, retainers, or billable hours rather than selling products, Accelo is designed for your operating model. It's less suitable for product companies, retail, or manufacturing.

How it works

We work hand-in-hand with you to implement Accelo

As Accelo consultants we work with you hand in hand build more efficient and effective operations. Here’s how we will work with you to automate your business and integrate Accelo with integrate and automate 800+ tools.

Step 1

Review Your Current Operations

We map out how your firm currently manages projects, tracks time, communicates with clients, and handles invoicing. We document what's working, what's falling through the cracks, and where billable time is being lost to administrative tasks or poor visibility.

Step 2

Configure Accelo for Your Business

We set up Accelo to match your firm's structure — service lines, billing rates, project templates, ticket categories, and user permissions. We configure the system around how your team actually works rather than forcing you to change your processes to fit the software.

Step 3

Migrate Your Data

We import your existing client records, active projects, open tickets, and historical data into Accelo. We handle the data cleaning and mapping, making sure contacts, companies, and project histories come across accurately rather than dumping everything in and hoping for the best.

Step 4

Connect Your Other Systems

We set up integrations between Accelo and your accounting package (typically Xero), email system, CRM, and communication tools. Using n8n, we build workflows for any custom connections your firm needs — like syncing with industry-specific tools or internal databases.

Step 5

Train Your Team

We run role-specific training sessions — project managers learn scheduling and budget tracking, staff learn time entry and task management, and managers learn reporting and profitability dashboards. We focus on the daily workflows each role uses rather than trying to cover every feature at once.

Step 6

Optimise After Go-Live

After two to four weeks of real use, we review how the team is using Accelo and identify friction points. We adjust workflows, add automation triggers for repetitive tasks, and fine-tune reports so the data your managers rely on is accurate and easy to access.
