Where Moovila wins
The most mature critical-path engine in the MSP space: real-time re-forecasting, RPAX risk scoring with a remediation wizard, and Smart Schedule matching skills to open calendar time.
Where Current fits: Moovila's PSA connectors sit in its contact-for-pricing Enterprise tier, and it has no customer portal that hides financials. Current pairs a critical path with PTO-aware scheduling, a portal and one published price.
Why MSPs choose Current
- Critical path, all four dependency types with lag, back-scheduling from a deadline and what-if previews are built in, not bought as a Moovila or TopLeft add-on.
- Scheduling skips weekends, company holidays and each person's PTO, the same way on the Timeline, the critical path and what-if, with Microsoft 365 busy time on the Schedule board.
- Gantt timeline, Kanban board, dependency map, calendar and a workload board all work on the same tasks, with 34 built-in playbooks and AI plan drafts from a pasted statement of work.
- My Day gives each person one page of the tasks and tickets assigned to them in suggested order, plus checklist steps that carry their own owner, due date and reminders.
- The customer portal keeps financials out by database rule: viewers see only their own projects and never reach time, rates or contract figures. Portal viewers are free.
- Works with the PSA you have: Autotask, ConnectWise, HaloPSA or Syncro stays the billing record, or projects run natively in Current. Time entries are checked against PSA rules before they save.
