About

A free ITGlue alternative, with additional ticketing / accounting features.

The Problem

• You're a busy MSP with 101 things to do.
• Information about your clients is unorganised and unstructured: scattered in random tickets or folders - when you do eventually find it, it's out of date.
• For some issues, you spend longer looking for the relevant documentation than actually working the ticket.
• On top of the technical day to day, you also have to take care of the financial side of the business - consistent pricing, quotes/invoicing, and accounting.

The Solution: ITFlow

• ITFlow consolidates common MSP needs (documentation, ticketing, and accounting) into one system

In Beta

• This project is still in early beta and is considered a work in progress. Many changes are being performed and may cause breakage upon updates.
• Currently, we strongly recommend against storing confidential information in ITFlow; ITFlow has not undergone a third-party security assessment.
• We are hoping to have a stable 1.0 release by Dec 2022.
