"Simple and useful tool for managing team projects"

4/5

What do you like best about ActiveCollab?

What I like best about ActiveCollab is that it keeps our project work organized in one place. I use it to create tasks, assign them to team members, set due dates, add comments, and check progress.

It is simple to use compared to Jira, so our team did not need much training. I also like that task updates, files, and discussions stay connected with the project, which reduces follow-ups on email and chat.

For daily project tracking, it is clean, useful, and easy for the team to understand. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ActiveCollab?

What I dislike about ActiveCollab is that reporting and dashboard options can be more detailed. For daily task tracking it works well, but sometimes I need more flexible reports to show project status to management.

Some settings also take time to find when you are new to the tool. It is not very difficult, but better help tips or onboarding inside the product would make it easier for new team members. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ActiveCollab solving and how is that benefiting you?

ActiveCollab helps us manage project tasks, deadlines, files, and team communication in one place. Earlier, work updates were spread across emails and chats, so it was hard to track everything clearly.

Now we can assign tasks, set due dates, add comments, and check progress from the same place. This saves time, reduces confusion, and helps the team stay clear about what needs to be done next. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
