Why Shyphan

Why France consulting firms work with us

  • Sector process mapped before any configuration begins
  • Only the features you need, not the whole suite by default
  • French compliance and reporting configured as standard
  • Fixed quote in EUR with no open-ended day rates
  • Training and care plan on French working hours
The sector problem

What holds France consulting firms back

Consultancies are sold on expertise and run on utilisation, yet most cannot see either until the month has closed and the timesheets have finally been chased.

Zoho addresses this by putting the sector's records, money and reporting on one data model, so a job, a customer and an invoice are the same thing everywhere. For consulting firms that usually means utilisation and realisation visible weekly, scope creep caught while it is still recoverable, and invoicing that takes an afternoon.

Client confidentiality enforced through project-level permissions and a portal that shows progress without exposing internal rates. We configure the platform for the sector rather than handing over a blank tenant and a login.

Across France

Serving consulting firms across France

We work with consulting firms in Paris, Lyon, Marseille, Toulouse, Lille, Bordeaux, Nantes, Nice, Strasbourg, Grenoble, Montpellier and Rennes and every French region. Delivery is remote on CET and CEST, with on-site workshops where multi-site operations justify the visit.

French buyers are unusually price-sensitive about per-seat SaaS, which is why Zoho's bundled licensing lands well with French CFOs. Sector experience means we arrive with the questions already written, which shortens discovery and keeps the fixed quote realistic.

Getting Zoho for Consulting Firms right in France

French project businesses bill in stages, hold retention and handle subcontracting rules that change how TVA is charged. This is how Zoho for Consulting Firms handles it.

Progress billing and retention

Progress statements (situations de travaux) turn into invoices with the right TVA, and the retention guarantee (retenue de garantie) is tracked and released on its own schedule.

Subcontractors and reverse charge

Construction subcontractor invoices follow the reverse charge (autoliquidation), so TVA is self-assessed by the main contractor and posted correctly.

Job costing while it runs

Labour, materials and subcontractor costs are booked to the job, so margin is known while it is still recoverable.

Utilisation you can see

Timesheets feed utilisation and billing weekly, not after the month has closed.

What we deliver

What we build for consulting firms

A sector-shaped Zoho deployment, quoted as a fixed price in EUR before work starts.

01

Sector process mapping

Workshops with your operational team to map how consulting firms really run, including the workarounds nobody documented.

02

The right Zoho apps

We deploy Zoho CRM for pipeline, Zoho Projects for delivery and timesheets and Zoho Books for billing, and leave out the modules that would only add licence cost and training overhead.

03

Automating the sector's grind

Utilisation and realisation visible weekly, scope creep caught while it is still recoverable, and invoicing that takes an afternoon.

04

French compliance built in

Client confidentiality enforced through project-level permissions and a portal that shows progress without exposing internal rates.

05

Reporting the sector runs on

Dashboards built around the numbers consulting firms are actually judged on, delivered to inboxes so directors never have to log in to see them.

What French clients typically get

Typical outcomes on our French projects. Every engagement is scoped to the business.

TVA and e-invoicing handled

The right TVA rate on every invoice, Factur-X through an approved platform and CA3 figures that reconcile, so filing is a report rather than a reconstruction.

One system instead of five

Sales, finance, support and HR on one platform with one login, replacing tools that never agreed with each other.

Support on French hours

A named consultant on CET hours, a fixed quote in EUR, and documentation so you are never locked in.

Zoho vs the usual stack

Why French teams switch to Zoho

FAQ

Zoho for consulting firms: questions answered

Can Zoho for Consulting Firms handle progress billing and retention?
Yes. Each progress statement is invoiced with the right TVA, the retention guarantee is held on a separate balance and released when the guarantee period ends, and the project report shows billed, retained and outstanding amounts.
Can Zoho for Consulting Firms handle reverse-charge TVA for construction subcontractors?
Yes. Subcontractor invoices in construction are set up for the reverse charge, so they carry no TVA, the main contractor self-assesses it on the CA3 and the figures reconcile.
Does Zoho work for consulting firms in France?
Yes, and we have configured it for exactly this sector. The platform is generic; the value comes from configuring it around sector process. Utilisation and realisation visible weekly, scope creep caught while it is still recoverable, and invoicing that takes an afternoon.
What problems do consulting firms usually come to you with?
Consultancies are sold on expertise and run on utilisation, yet most cannot see either until the month has closed and the timesheets have finally been chased.
Which Zoho features do consulting firms typically need?
Most start with Zoho CRM for pipeline, Zoho Projects for delivery and timesheets and Zoho Books for billing. We deliberately keep the initial footprint small and add modules once the first phase is embedded.
How does Zoho handle the compliance side?
Client confidentiality enforced through project-level permissions and a portal that shows progress without exposing internal rates.
How long does a rollout take for a business like ours?
A single-site operation with a standard process is commonly live in four to eight weeks. Multi-site, multi-entity or heavily integrated builds are phased over three to six months so each phase delivers value before the next starts.
Can you migrate our existing system?
Yes. We migrate from spreadsheets, legacy sector software, Salesforce, HubSpot, QuickBooks, Xero, Sage and bespoke databases, with a sandbox dry run and a written reconciliation before cutover.
Do you work with businesses outside Paris?
Yes. We deliver remotely across the whole France, from Paris, Lyon, Marseille, Toulouse, Lille, Bordeaux, Nantes, Nice, Strasbourg, Grenoble, Montpellier and Rennes to smaller towns, with on-site visits available for larger rollouts.
Do you sign an NDA before we share our data?
Yes, as a matter of course. We also work in a sandbox with masked or sample data wherever the real thing is not needed, and document the processing arrangement for your GDPR record of processing activities.

Where this sector fit is weak - and what we do about it

The suite covers the common ground of this sector well. Where your operation has a genuinely unusual requirement, standard configuration will not have it and building it costs real money.

How we handle it: We map your process against the standard product in discovery and price the gaps separately, so you can decide what is worth building.
