Testimonials
We are proud to be relied upon by some of the most distinguished design firms. Here are what some of them have to say.
Our design firm has been using DesignSmart for several years and it has been instrumental in successfully managing our interior design projects. DesignSmart answered our need for a software product that would integrate both project management and financial management. We use DesignSmart with the QuickBooks Connector module, which has streamlined our purchasing, invoicing and accounting processes. There is a lot of useful functionality to the software, and we generate many of the reports available both for client presentation and in-house use. We also appreciate the customer service the support team provides. They have a positive attitude and respond to our questions and requests in a very timely manner.

DesignSmart shines in areas that other platforms do not even address. If you truly understand what makes or breaks a project, your only viable choice is DesignSmart. Not only is the platform excellent, so is the customer service. Will and his staff are available, competent and responsive. Most importantly, they are receptive to ideas that would increase the functionality of their product. In the past 2 years alone they have added at least 6 new revolutionary features at no additional cost to their customers.
Bijan T.
CFO of Texas Based Residential Design Firm with 12 Designers
DesignSmart is the key to eliminating process gaps between operational functions that come with the very complex and nuanced industry of design. DesignSmart is what we needed to move from running a small business to operating an organization. And, it will prevent your accountant from strangling your designers.
Matt K.
CFO
I migrated from another platform when I became frustrated that other software didn’t connect to QuickBooks. That was important to me; to keep my existing bookkeeping in place. Since then DS just keeps getting better and better.
