ActiveCollab Reviews & Product Details

Great tool, its interface is simple, practical and easy to see. In addition, I love how projects can be displayed and searched, and it also has multiple features that make it irreplaceable. It covers the integration of the calendar, task management, expense and time tracking, customer estimates and billing. integrated, discussions with customers are organized and organized at all times. And what I like most is its customization function.

ActiveCollab is undoubtedly a great tool, however its mobile version is not what we expect, some of its tools are slow and sometimes it does not perform what I want, but in general the computer version has worked very well.

In our organization we use it for our traditional and digital services, but also as a project management tool. For our digital services, we use it to manage agile workflows along with task management and the timeline. ActiveCollab helps us to execute the daily operations of our company and our clients. This great platform has helped us keep track of everything we do and where any project is in your timeline. It is a great tool for our entire team.

Something I like about ActiveCollab is the way it allows you to group projects, each information and group. In my work it is very necessary to be able to determine and focus difficult tasks, ActiveCollab makes it possible since its platform has tools that do what is necessary for each project to be positive, also allows the power to collaborate with the other team members, being able to delegate tasks with just two click to any member or attached users. It is an easy program to classify clients and campaigns. Another aspect that I like is that users can select the number of emails that ActiveCollab receives.

It seems to me that ActiveCollab is a bit confused software since it is an all-inclusive tool that lacks features that other project management programs have. Similarly, ActiveCollab has no customization options for the appearance of the platform, so if you want to communicate with your customers, you will only receive active collaboration email, with only a small mention of you and your company.

It is used in the company as a project management tool, helping us in the execution of daily operations of our company and our clients. In addition, it helps us keep track of what we do and where any project is in the timeline. With this tool we have been able to manage customer requests and improve internal and external communications. It has been a great help for us allowing us to be aware of all things.

It is a great tool, I find it very easy to classify some clients and good campaigns, it has many features that are great when it starts to be used, it keeps me in good order with my tasks and I can plan my projects and review them daily. ActiveCollab is very efficient and I like it because it has a well structured platform, I can work as a team, it allows me to have access to many tasks and with excellent coordination that are necessary for the projects.

I would like to have a good support in the technical support at the time of registering a problem, it becomes somewhat tedious not to have an answer that helps to solve and inconvenience exactly, to get an answer you have to go to activecollab.com and raise the situation.

It is a very good project management tool, if used properly it will help to integrate people at a hurried pace which is a great benefit, it is very easy to label people. The function to share files is very useful for each distributed team, it is of great help since you can share the files, it allows you to easily track the tasks; This is of great benefit because it serves as a reminder to carry out the execution of projects that are up to date or roasted.

This software was surprisingly easy for our small business to adopt given we had little exposure to SCRUM but a need to systematize for our rapid growth.

Had some difficulty with the app, specifically the login when using Google integration.

We needed to start running the business based on PMP standards given our growth patterns - couldn't have decisions and tasks owned by one person. Active collab made it easy to engage employees and get the transparency I needed as CEO.

Active Collab provided the opportunity to set up templates and we could copy those templates into our active projects. As a project manager, also found the Activity tab to be super helpful. You could see how things are processing within the project and what team members have been completing. It was a good way to reference back a few days or past weeks if you needed to. It's an overall easy system to dive in and start to use. We found that the system was focused mostly on the projects setup and structure.

We found Active Collab to not be as customizable around the individual team member view. This is an area we'd like to see Active Collab improve upon.

We were looking for a system that had the functionality for not only Projects but also for the team. From pulling various reports, to seeing what was due within your My Work tab on a per project basis. You can also use the Add-ons such as integrating Slack.

Allows a lot of information for everyone

Too disorganized sometimes task can get lost

Allows everyone to collab together in the office, or even out of the office

It's easy and helps keep all your projects in one place.

You can't assign dates to sub tasks. Just assign a person responsible.

Task and time management

Ability to customize the interface to adapt to the company needs. We needed the ability to have events with target dates (and assign the targets to specific people) and also be able to associate instructors/presenters with those events.

The workaround for creating an instructor/presenter record is a bit kludgy. We would like an option to be able to create a dedicated section for instructors versus lumping them into notes. it works but we can see where it could work better. Would also like to be able to create an annual calendar of just events.

Keeping track of multiple training events and all of the moving parts associated with the (contracts, schedules, etc).

I use ActiveCollab as a member of the research group for the management of my ongoing projects. It is a very convenient tool, that allows me showing the other member of the group my progress, intermediate results, final manuscripts.

Overall I am happy with this tool. It could be a bit complicated for the first time, there is why we had an introductory lecture on ActiveCollab.

Ongoing research project management, file exchange, and file storage.

I like the ease of use with email response into a thread. I also like how you can set up private threads and public with clients.

When loading files, sometimes it gets hung-up and it takes longer than necessary.

I use active collab while managing creative projects between different creative team members and the client.
