The work with a client carries on after go-live

An onboarding tool tracks a client up to go-live and stops there, and a Tallyfy process keeps tracking the steps that come after it.

The track carries on past go-live Three numbered steps, 1 to 3, get green checks one after another, up to a flag that marks go-live. Past the flag the path drops off a ledge. Then the track carries on with steps 4 and 5, and they get green checks too. Then the picture starts again. 1 2 3 4 5

AI readiness comparison

How Rocketlane and Tallyfy compare on AI-native capabilities

Criterion
Rocketlane
General workflow capability beyond onboarding Use the same tool for onboarding, approvals, compliance, and any other process
AI agent workflow orchestration AI agents can manage and monitor onboarding workflows through structured patterns
MCP server for cross-process AI AI agents work across all your processes, not just onboarding
External participants at zero cost Clients join and complete tasks without paid seats or app downloads
If-this-then-that automation rules Conditional logic routes work based on form answers, not rigid templates

Onboarding-only tools can't help with the rest of your operations. AI agents need to work across process boundaries, not just one use case. Tallyfy has a live MCP server with 100+ tools that connects to ChatGPT, Claude, Google Gemini, and Microsoft Copilot Studio.

Which tool is right for you?

A straight comparison to help you make the right choice

Tallyfy is best for

  • Teams that launch each new case from one template and track it on its own
  • Steps that need a sign-off from several people before work continues
  • Teams that start processes from other tools, through Zapier, Make or the API
  • Companies that assign steps by job title, so each step reaches the right person

Rocketlane may be better for

  • Services teams that run implementation projects for clients
  • Firms that want resource and financial management for client projects
  • Teams that have already built their projects in Rocketlane

" The features and set up can be a bit manual at times which makes onboarding this tool move slower than I would like. I wish some of the features were more intuitive and more UI focused. Customer facing interfacing is lacking in ease of use and can create bottlenecks. Support team is overseas and creates a less than seamless experience in terms of trying to resolve issues quickly. Our renewal experience felt rushed and we had very little engagement from our CSM leading up to it.[1] "

" Cost is on a little higher side compared to other platforms. Customer support does not respond on time and at times when they resolve the query it occurs again after some time.[5] "

" I'm getting too much communication daily on each project even if the task is not related to me. I would rather get a single daily email with all the projects.[6] "

- Rocketlane review on SoftwareAdvice
" It didn't integrate with Jira service desk, which is a big miss for me. There are so many other alternatives to RocketLane that, unless you need something very very specific, you can choose anyone of these. Finally, RocketLane is based on the premise that stakeholders will be proactive in logging in and looking at the project process, it is my experience that most stakeholders do not behave this way.[7] "
- Rocketlane review on Gartner
" It's a relatively expensive solution primarily targeting mid-market to enterprise-size businesses. The software lacks native billing and invoicing and offers limited native integrations. It also has a small user community if you need somewhere to turn for tips, advice, and information. RocketLane may be costly for solopreneurs, startups, and businesses in the growth stage.[8] "
- Rocketlane review from GetApp
" The reporting capabilities are too basic, limiting our ability to generate even simple reports. Key functionalities such as adding formulas and using filters with both OR and AND conditions together are missing. There is also no automation for aggregated reminders to team members.[9] "
- Rocketlane review on Capterra
" The platform hangs up frequently and it takes time to put on my activities on the platform. Sometimes Rocketlane gets stuck while adding multiple events from the calendar in the timesheets.[10] "
- Rocketlane review on Capterra
" The UX initially was very confusing. It does take some learning curve to reach a flow state in the UX but that comes with the complexity of the product. Its Analytics is very poor. Very difficult to see a summary or high level overview of team performance.[11] "

Tallyfy might not be right for you if...

Tallyfy isn't for everyone. Here's when it may not fit:

  • Tallyfy doesn't handle project billing or resource management the way a PSA tool does
  • It has fewer reports built only for implementation projects
  • If onboarding is the only process you run, a tool built just for onboarding may suit you better

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Rocketlane used for?

Rocketlane is software for services teams that run client projects, such as customer onboarding and implementations. It calls itself a PSA, short for professional services automation.

What is Tallyfy, and how is it different from Rocketlane?

Tallyfy is workflow software. Rocketlane organizes work into client projects, and Tallyfy organizes it into processes, where every step is tracked. If one step has to wait for another, you hide it at the start and add a rule that shows it when the earlier step is done. Tallyfy then emails whoever has that step to say it's their turn.

Does Tallyfy price differently by country?

Yes, through its Fair Price Guarantee. If most of your users are in an eligible country and you pay annually, you can apply for a discount based on regional GDP per capita, given at Tallyfy's discretion.

Is Rocketlane backed by venture capital?

Yes. Rocketlane is funded by venture capital firms.

How does Tallyfy handle process improvement?

Anyone running a task can report an issue on it, and everyone assigned to that task is notified. Ideas for changing the process are left as comments on the template, where its owner reads them. Once the owner edits the template, the next process launched from it follows the new steps.

What can AI do inside a Tallyfy process?

It can complete single steps. Connect ChatGPT, Claude or Microsoft Copilot, and it reads the task, does the work and marks the step done. Tallyfy's own AI also turns an SOP you upload as a Word or PDF file into a template.

What should I check before choosing Rocketlane?

Whether you need resource planning and time tracking for client projects. Rocketlane includes both, and Tallyfy doesn't do them the way a services tool does.

How does conditional branching work in Tallyfy?

With if-this-then-that rules on the template. A rule can show or hide a step, change who it's assigned to or move a deadline, based on a form answer or on whether another step is done. Rules run when the process launches and each time a task is completed.

Where can I see customer reviews of Tallyfy?

On our customer page. A common theme there is time saved on work that used to take days, such as approvals and monthly client work.

Is setup help included?

Yes. Our team onboards you 1:1 and keeps helping for as long as you're a customer. Rocketlane's pricing page says its implementation packages aren't included in its plans.

How can I get started with Tallyfy?

Book a demo. We'll answer your questions and set you up with a trial account.

Can I put my own branding on what clients see in Tallyfy?

Partly. You can add your logo and brand color, and guests see them on their tasks. Full white-labeling, with no Tallyfy name anywhere, isn't available, because Tallyfy's security standards are tied to the tallyfy.com domain.

Do external contacts need a Tallyfy account?

No. Tallyfy emails each guest a secure link to their task, and they finish it without a password or a paid seat. They can also see all their tasks in one place by entering their email address at go.tallyfy.com.
