There are three main ways for you to have information flow through into your project management system:

  • Using the email-in feature to send data to a particular workspace, project or client record
  • Connect a webform builder like Typeform and have the information emailed in or synced using Zapier
  • Use the webform feature that comes with some project management software systems

Side note: The main issue that we see clients have is trying to have information flow from a client and then update the existing client project or record in their system. Updating a project or adding a comment through email or a sync is quite common but trying to link the information to a particular client record can be quite difficult.

In terms of project management software that includes the option for webforms, the two main systems that we recommend are:

From these two options, Podio offers more webform styling options and also allows you to have a webform be used to partially complete a client project or client record which can be helpful when you want a client to complete some details and then have staff internally complete the rest of the information.
