All-in-one CRM and project management platform combining sales pipelines, task boards, invoicing, and collaboration into a single workspace for small to mid-sized teams.
In its favor
Why people choose Flowlu
The signal that keeps Flowlu on the shortlist. Sourced from G2, Capterra, and customer scoping calls.
Unified CRM, projects, invoicing, and knowledge base eliminate the need to subscribe to multiple tools and pay for data sync between them, according to G2 reviewers comparing Flowlu to stacked point solutions.
Generous free tier with 100 contacts and one pipeline lets small teams validate workflow fit before committing to a paid Essential plan at $9 per user per month.
Workflow automation builder runs across projects, tasks, and CRM objects, allowing teams to automate routine handoffs without writing code, per Capterra review themes.
Continuous platform updates mean the feature set expands over time without requiring a migration to a new tool, which reviewers cite as a reason to stay long-term.
Project-level financial tracking including invoices, expenses, and time budgets gives service businesses visibility into project profitability in the same system as their sales pipeline.
The September 2025 shift from flat-rate to per-seat pricing caught long-term users off guard, with reviewers noting the cost increase made Flowlu less competitive for larger teams.
Steep learning curve and complex interface slow adoption for new team members, with multiple G2 reviewers describing the onboarding as overwhelming compared to simpler tools like ClickUp or Asana.
Absence of a native Mac desktop app and no dark mode frustrate users who work primarily on macOS or prefer low-light interfaces, per G2 and Capterra reviews.
The Free plan caps contacts at 100 and locks email sync behind paid tiers, leading users to feel the free tier functions as a trial rather than a viable long-term option.
Missing native e-signature and contract capabilities force teams to use third-party tools like DocuSign, creating data silos that contradict Flowlu's all-in-one positioning.

What gets migrated
Flowlu object support
Object-by-object support for Flowlu migrations. Per-pair details surface during scoping.
Projects
Fully supportedProjects serve as the top-level work container in Flowlu, holding tasks, milestones, time entries, expenses, and invoices. We preserve the full project card data including stage, deadline, project manager assignment, and financial widgets. Workflow-based projects display on the Project Workflow board and we map that attribute correctly.
Tasks
Fully supportedTasks are the granular work unit inside Projects. We map task name, description, status, assignee, due date, planned and actual time, and custom field values. Dependencies between tasks are preserved as a linked field pair. Subtasks are treated as nested tasks under their parent task.
Agile Projects
Mapping requiredAgile Projects use sprints, backlogs, and an issue tracker separate from standard Projects. We map sprint assignments, backlog rank, issue priority, and story points where present. The sprint-to-sprint burndown history requires aggregation at migration time.
Opportunities
Mapping requiredOpportunities sit inside Pipelines and carry stage, amount, probability, expected close date, and custom fields. We map these as Deals or Opportunities in the destination. Custom fields on Opportunities require value mapping because Flowlu supports list-based custom fields that may not map directly to free-text or picklist fields in the target.
Contacts
Mapping requiredContacts store name, email, phone, company association, lifecycle stage, and custom properties. We handle deduplication at migration time using email as the primary key. Custom fields on Contacts are mapped field-by-field, and list-type custom fields are expanded into multi-select or tag fields in the destination where supported.
Companies
Mapping requiredCompanies are separate record types that Contacts link to. We map company name, industry, website, address, and any custom fields. The relationship between Contact and Company records is preserved by mapping the Company ID reference on each Contact.
Pipelines
Fully supportedPipelines define the sales stages visible on the CRM board. We map the pipeline name, stage names, stage order, and stage-specific probability values. Active deals are migrated with their current stage intact.
Pipeline Stages
Fully supportedIndividual stages within a Pipeline are migrated with their display order and probability percentages. Stages are tied to their parent Pipeline so deal placement in the destination reflects the original board layout.
Invoices
Mapping requiredInvoices contain line items, tax rates, payment status, and issuer details. We map invoice date, due date, line items, totals, and payment status. Historical invoices may reference closed Projects or archived Companies; we flag these as potentially orphaned references and give the customer the choice to remap or skip.
Knowledge Base Articles
Mapping requiredFlowlu Knowledge Base articles store title, body content, category assignment, and optional custom fields. We map article content and category. Articles linked to specific Knowledge Base sections may require destination-side section creation before import.
Custom Fields
Mapping requiredCustom Fields attach to Projects, Tasks, Opportunities, Contacts, Companies, Knowledge Base items, and more. Each Custom Field has a type (text, number, date, list, checkbox, etc.) and may be required or read-only. We extract the full custom field schema during scoping and map each field type to the closest equivalent in the destination CRM.
Time Entries
Fully supportedTime entries record hours logged against Tasks or Projects, with user assignment and optional descriptions. We map entry date, duration, user, task/project reference, and billable flag. Billable time entries are cross-referenced with Invoices where applicable.
Users and Teams
Mapping requiredFlowlu Users have roles (Admin, Manager, Member) and can be grouped into Teams. We map user email, name, role, and team membership. Owner assignment on records is migrated by email lookup; if a user does not exist in the destination, we flag it for the customer to resolve.
