Why Rocketlane over Kantata

Book a demo

Reclaim hours lost to admin with Nitro agents handling updates, docs, migrations, and plan upkeep.

Keep projects moving faster with AI built into delivery, scheduling, and customer comms.

Kantata’s AI improves visibility and surfaces insights, but the execution still sits with your team, adding manual work and slowing follow-through.

Keep delivery, resourcing, and financials in one place

Reduce integrations, sync issues, and duplicate work

Get one view of projects, staffing, and margins

Teams may still need additional tools for parts of delivery, adding cost and operational overhead.

Rocketlane’s Seamless Switch Guarantee gets you live within 12 weeks.

Guided setup and migration help you go live faster, without rebuilding your workflows

Kantata takes months to set up and most teams need a separate project management tool to make it work. By the time you're live, you've burned through months of admin time and you're still stitching tools together.

Collaborate with your customers directly in one shared place 

Give customers real-time visibility into progress and next steps

Help customers act faster with less hand-holding

Customer visibility may require more manual communication or additional tooling as they lack a mature, fully integrated customer portal experience.

Most PS teams track projects in one place, time in another, and finances somewhere else entirely. Rocketlane connects all of it so nothing slips through.

AI agents catch risks early, execute the in-between work, and keep every project on track. Your team only steps in when a decision needs a human.

“What excites me about Timesheet Policies is the ability to bring structured guardrails into our time data. The idea that we can encode our policies directly into the system to catch issues at the end of the week or month, feels like a meaningful shift.”

Daniel Levine

Director, PS and Implementation

“Our team manually logs weekly account updates in Salesforce today. Signals can automatically surface risks and key customer requests from conversations, giving our account managers the insights they need without extra manual work.”

Richard D'Ambrosio

Director of PS, Customer Success

"On more complex implementations, we spend 10–15 hours documenting decisions and structuring requirements to capture everything. With Nitro’s documentation agent, it could automatically pull key decisions from our calls and keep documentation updated as the project evolves.”

Stacey Milgram Potzka

Vice President of Operations and Implementations

“Today our team manually creates tenants, assigns roles, and configures environments for every new customer. What’s exciting is that the configuration agent can automate this setup, dramatically reducing manual effort and helping us deliver faster implementations.”
