Vantage vs Scoro
Powerful without the complexity. Scoro packs a lot of features, but users say it "needs a degree to use." Vantage gives you the power without the learning curve.
Choose Vantage if...
- You want powerful features without the complexity
- You have fewer than 5 team members
- You want to be productive in hours, not weeks
- You don't want to pay for mandatory onboarding
- You want encrypted credential storage
- You want automated client health alerts
- Performance matters to you
Choose Scoro if...
- You need advanced resource planning now
- You need built-in proposal generation now
- You're already invested in their ecosystem
- Your team is comfortable with complex software
Scoro is powerful but complex. Users say it "needs a degree to use" and complain about slow load times and bugs. The 5-user minimum and $1,699+ onboarding fee create a steep barrier to entry.
Vantage gives you the core PSA features you need without the complexity. Most teams are productive in hours. And we have features Scoro doesn't: zero-knowledge credential vault, automated client health scoring, and Cmd+K navigation.
What Scoro does better: Resource planning and proposal generation. These are on our roadmap for Q2 2026.
