pylotik vs Projektron BCS: two European software products that overlap widely, with two centers of gravity. Projektron BCS is a German project management and ERP software for service providers, highly integrated: projects, resources, contracts, invoicing, CRM, incident ticketing. pylotik steers the contracts, projects and maintenance of any organization, with its clients and suppliers, and holds their margin through the client and team management. To manage everything in a single system, BCS is a solid choice.
Published by Projektron GmbH, in Berlin. A web software that covers planning, multi-project, portfolio, resources, time, CRM, quotes, invoicing, contracts and incident ticketing. On premises or in a cloud hosted in Germany, in the full BCS version or the lighter BCS.light.
An operational commitment management software, designed and hosted in France, built during turnarounds and restructurings of service centers. Contracts, projects and maintenance, workload plan, time, margin, committees and decisions rest on a single data set, which the client consults and validates without paying for access.
Projektron BCS runs the service company, from the quote to the electronic invoice. pylotik holds the profitability of each commitment through its two levers: the client, who validates the minutes and follows the indicators of its contract, and the team, whose workload and feedback are steered every week.
Projektron BCS: a provider that wants a single system for its projects, its sales management, its invoicing and its support. pylotik: any organization that runs projects (industry, construction, engineering, digital services, public sector), keeps its ERP and wants to hold the margin of its commitments with its clients and its teams.
Projektron BCS is the better fit when the organization wants a single system for its projects, its CRM, its quotes, the issuing of its invoices (electronic invoicing, DATEV export), its contracts and its support. pylotik does not issue invoices: it connects to the ERP, through a connector built to your needs, to send it the billing orders. It has no CRM, no quotes, no project ticketing, no SLA management and no offline mode; it connects to project ticketing tools such as Jira, through a connector. Its linked projects are limited to one level, where BCS nests subprojects and project groups. Deep project structure and client support with SLAs: BCS documents them, pylotik does not.
On hosting, both stay in Europe: BCS in Germany, with an on-premises installation possible, pylotik in France. The documentation consulted does not describe on-site intervention scheduling or a decision log.

Projektron BCS targets the integrated management of a service provider. For the profitability of your projects and your commitments, whatever your sector, pylotik includes the client and team management; client validation and free client access are not documented at BCS. It was built during turnarounds and restructurings of service centers and projects, and covers workload plan, time, ordered, invoiced, paid, amount still due, cost and margin at completion.
Even when well equipped, an organization often leaves the client dialogue in e-mails and the reporting in presentations. pylotik puts commitments, decisions, validations and reporting on a reference data set shared by supplier and client. See operational commitment management.
Projektron BCS is a highly integrated project management and ERP software: projects, resources, CRM, quotes, invoicing, contracts, incident ticketing. pylotik has a tighter scope, centered on profitability and on keeping commitments: contracts, projects and maintenance steered with the client, who accesses it for free, and with the teams. BCS runs the company, pylotik the margin of each commitment.
Yes. Projektron BCS bills recurring services (maintenance, subscriptions) and offers a Services area for support. pylotik tracks, in its core, the period, the volume in days, the catalogue, the committee and the indicators shared with the client, without issuing invoices.
Projektron BCS offers an external support portal for tickets; its pricing page does not mention free external users. In pylotik, access for external client organizations is free on every tier; an internal client team takes up a seat according to its role.
It covers workload plan, time, ordered, invoiced, paid, cost and margin at completion, and adds the client and team management. It is not an ERP: no accounting, no CRM, no quotes, and it does not issue invoices; it connects to the ERP, through a connector built to your needs, to send it the billing orders. BCS, for its part, documents quotes, CRM and electronic invoicing.
Yes. Projektron BCS offers ten interface languages, including French, and a cloud hosted in Germany. pylotik is designed and hosted in France, with an interface available in French.
