A Resource Optimization Engine Designed For Today’s World
The Kantata Professional Services Cloud allows you to leverage data from across business processes to ensure users can operate, adapt, and plan with the fluidity and flexibility that market realities require.

With this level of flexibility and perspective, the Kantata Cloud makes it possible to precisely determine the ideal mix of resources for the optimal outcomes across every project, every practice area, for every client, every time.
Unified Data Model Supports Every Action
The Kantata Professional Services Cloud’ unified data model aligns business data, client project data, and workforce data. With API-based integrations with a company’s existing financial management, CRM, HRIS, and other existing tools, the Kantata Cloud breaks down system siloes to bring together the most vital professional services information into a single data source. As a result, companies have clear sight into all signals from across client or project lifecycles. By providing near real-time perspective into in-flight projects, the Kantata Cloud enables more effective resource optimization and data-driven decision-making without the need for a single spreadsheet.
