BlueRock acquires WorkflowMax brand

Xero’s WorkflowMax has long been a trusted name in job management software. Thousands of businesses rely on it daily for quoting, scheduling, time tracking, invoicing, and reporting.

On 23 March 2023, Xero announced it would retire WorkflowMax. We’re excited to share that BlueRock has acquired the WorkflowMax brand and will launch a newly developed solution to market: WorkflowMax by BlueRock.

We launched WorkflowMax by BlueRock in early 2024, combining the core features customers know and love with exciting updates and a refreshed, intuitive user experience.

From quoting and scheduling to billing and reporting, WorkflowMax by BlueRock builds on a strong foundation while introducing enhancements to make job management smarter, faster, and easier.

 

Why Did BlueRock Acquire the WorkflowMax Brand?

As a tech-led advisory firm, BlueRock has always looked for ways to improve the lives of SME business owners through technology and innovation. WorkflowMax has already proven its value across countless industries, and we saw a huge opportunity to evolve it for the future.

As well as this, BlueRock’s Digital team had already been implementing Xero’s WorkflowMax for more than 8 years, seeing first-hand its value and popularity across industries.

BlueRock’s Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Peter Lalor, said: “We’ve always been passionate about WorkflowMax and the benefits it brings SME business owners, and believe there is so much potential to build on the great foundations Xero has set with this product. We’re excited to offer a new job management software solution, which we’re aiming to be similar, if not better, in terms of functionality, to meet evolving market and customer demands. As a business, we're focusing more and more on the development of tech and AI products that will support our SME business clients and advisors, and the WorkflowMax by BlueRock product will be a fantastic addition to our offering.”

As part of the brand acquisition, Xero managed existing WorkflowMax subscriptions until the product’s retirement on 26 June 2024, BlueRock launched WorkflowMax by BlueRock as the next-generation solution and Xero and BlueRock entered a revenue share agreement for the new product.
