Trying To Choose Between Bloom And ClientManager?

Do you feel like spending 3 hours comparing features and pricing?

We didn’t think so.

So, here's the TL;DR:

If you're a solopreneur or agency looking for a user-friendly tool to streamline your sales and CRM, definitely check out Bloom.

But, if you’re looking for a more versatile all-in-one tool that combines sales, CRM and project management tools at a more affordable price point, then ClientManager might just be calling your name.

We'll go into a little more detail below.

Of course, you could always just try both options for free and see which your prefer.

Using – Or Choosing - A CRM Shouldn’t Make Your Life MORE Complicated…

ClientManager is on one mission: to make managing clients simple – the way it should be.

After all, landing new clients should be a time to celebrate. Not a time for panic attacks when you wonder how you’re going to keep five extra balls in the air.

That’s why for the past few years we’ve been working to create an affordable, clean, clutter-free CRM solution that keeps all your client shenanigans in one place…so it doesn’t feel like you’re constantly trying to herd a bunch of cats.

We’ve purpose-built it as all-in-one tool for freelancers and small teams that can easily scale with you as you grow.

And you don’t have to worry about finding three other tools to plug the gaps – ClientManager covers your full client workflow, from managing leads to processing payments, and makes it easy to keep your team in the loop without micromanaging them.

Honestly, it’s the tool we wish we’d had when we started out.

We’re not shy to say it’s a work-in-progress. Because no tool can claim to be perfect. In fact, our Roadmap is one of the features our users love – you can see exactly what we’re working on behind the scenes to add and improve features according to our users’ needs (and wants).

And that’s what makes it so much fun to be a part of.

ClientManager Keeps It Simple – The Way It Should Be

"I searched for a long time to find an “all-in-one” tool that could handle both CRM and project management for my web design agency.

ClientManager replaced several online tools, solving many of my problems."

The Difference Between ClientManager & Bloom

While ClientManager and Bloom share a lot of similar features to help you manage clients and workflows, the two are quite different in focus.

So let’s break it down.

What is Bloom?

Bloom is an all-in-one business management tool designed for freelancers and creatives. It started out as a platform specifically for photographers (which is why the Image Gallery is still a core feature).

Boom offers a robust set of features from lead management and bookings through to contracts, project management, CRM, asset delivery and invoicing, with a good range of professional templates.

On top of that, Bloom users can build and host a custom website portfolio with built in eCommerce functionality to help freelancers leverage more income opportunities.

While you’ll need a budget upwards of $20/month (plus $14 extra per website), Bloom replaces a bunch of other tools to offer great value.

So, how does ClientManager differ?

ClientManager focuses hard on being a streamlined, fluff-free solution. We prioritize the essential project management tools and CRM features that matter to freelancers, small to medium teams and agencies who want to keep their focus on simplicity and efficiency.

Rather than layering on niche tools you may not need, we focus on making the essential tools as versatile, customizable and effective as possible so you can quickly adapt them to your business, and stay focused on what truly matters: happy clients.

More specifically, ClientManager’s customizable client portals, team collaboration features and white labelling give it the edge on Bloom for teams focused on more complex client work.

Choose Bloom if:

You’re a creative freelancer or solopreneur looking for a CRM, project management and portfolio tool rolled into one
You don’t need a lot of customization for your workflows
You aren’t looking for extensive team collaboration features

Choose Clientmanager if:

You’re a freelancer, agency or small to medium businesses looking for a dedicated tool for managing clients and projects easily in one clutter-free place.

You want dedicated client portals and white labelling options to have full control over your client collaboration
You want a solution that streamlines standard workflows, but builds in enough freedom to run things how you want to.

Bottom line?

Choose the tool that aligns better with your needs and allows you to focus on what matters most – your clients and your work.

ClientManager offers a more versatile and budget-friendly solution that’s ideally suited to freelancers and solopreneurs, but that’s flexible and comprehensive enough to work well for agencies and small to medium sized businesses too.

How ClientManager Helps You Get More Done With Less

ClientManager is purposefully designed to help you block out the noise and focus on what matters.
Here are few ways we’re committed to cutting the clutter:

We won't make you watch a 3-hour tutorial or book a consultant to get set up. (We’re big on 60-second walkthroughs).

We won't hold your data hostage in a million submenus.

We don’t color code to death to disguise our lack of intuitive design. Our dashboards keep things clear and actionable at a glance.

We won’t annoy you with our ‘whimsical banter.’ We know you’ve got work to do. (And you don’t need a fluffer to get it done).

We don’t expect you to shape-shift to fit with our system. It’s there to work for you.

We don’t hide our human support team behind a higher paywall (they’d get too lonely).

**Warning: Using ClientManager may result in increased free time. Use responsibly.

Still After that List of Features?

(We get it. Lists are comforting. Like kitten fluff.)

Here at ClientManager, we don’t throttle features based on budget or how many team members you’re planning to cut out of the will.

We don’t charge per seat, and you can count our pricing plans on one hand (even if you’ve lost 2 fingers). Plus, we’ll never sneak in any hidden fees or try to lure you into ‘premium’ offers.

Whichever plan you choose, you get access to all the features you and your team need, including:
