B2B companies with a long sales cycle, where a deal continues into a contract, invoices, payments, a project, hours and margin: integrators and implementation firms, SaaS and subscription services, agencies and project firms, software vendors with partners, B2B distribution.
B2C retail, point of sale and shops, warehouse logistics (WMS), manufacturing ERP, and teams whose main need is marketing automation or a mobile app for staff. Krokul’s honest limits: no 2FA or SSO, no e-signature, no Gantt charts, no direct bank connection and no report builder; Google Calendar sync is one-way.
For mid-size B2B companies with a long sales cycle, yes: quotes, contracts, invoices, payments, subscriptions, projects, hours and margin work in one product.
