ActiveCollab

Migration de Harvest vers ActiveCollab

Avantages :

L'option Charge de travail et Agenda sont vraiment géniaux pour planifier notre semaine.

Inconvénients :

Il n'y a pas de façon de créer une banque de contacts pour la facturation des clients. Pour enregistrer les coordonnées des clients il faut absolument les inviter à collaborer dans le logiciel.

Perfect Project management tool.

Commentaires : ActiveCollab is one of the best, if not the best project management tool that I have ever used and I have jumped from one to another tool for different projects and project types. If offers so many features, perfect dashboard, milestone preview, calendar, planner, contact details, time tracking and much more. While it is perfect for managing many different types of projects, this is still not the perfect tool for managing software development projects. The only reason for that would be, there is no (or that was not back then) an integration with Git or other version of control system. It was simply a missing feature back then.
I truly hope that nowadays the ActiveCollab team managed to improve and integrate such feature, but talking 6-7 years ago, that was the only downside that I can say about it. If for some reason that is still not available and you are into software development business, look for something else like Asana or Bitbucket.

Avantages :

Great dashboard, different types of reports, milestone preview, calendars, time tracking tool are just a few of the features that make this software irreplaceable tool when it comes to project management.

Inconvénients :

Lack of integration with Git or another version of control system.

Pourquoi passer à ActiveCollab : Pricing and features

ActiveCollab, an ideal tool applicable to all project management methodologies.

Commentaires : ActiveCollab is a fairly complete and widely tested project management tool that can cover project management needs in a simple and effective way, as well as being ideal for incorporating members into the work team without the need for training since its intuitive interface is easy to adopt.

Avantages :

ActiveCollab is excellent for organizing our tasks using different views, among the most used we have List, Kanban, and Gantt types, which makes it a very good candidate to be used in all types of projects, whether under a cascade or waterfall methodology, as well as in agile work environments. It also allows us to add notes to the tasks, and generate a collaborative discussion environment that is assigned to each task, to generate amazing results.

Inconvénients :

An outstanding feature is its design, which allows us to have wide visibility to observe how our projects develop, since we generate collaborative discussions, complete tasks, and record the progress, from different views, available to the roles and users that participate in the project. It even allows us to participate with clients, to share comments, information, and evidence of progress in activities.

It is a beautiful app but not that useful

Commentaires : It was nice in the beginning but I just soon realised I needed something with easier to use features and no hidden costs. Onces a app like this becomes too complicated to navigate or customise - you will not use it as you need to daily because of that hassle.

Avantages :

It is beautifully designed so initially it seemed easier to use and navigate. It had a client portal and I could track my jobs and invoice/do estimates all from one place.

Inconvénients :

It has hidden fees. Everywhere it advertises itself as only 7.50 a month. - But using the MAIN FEATURES OF WHY I WANTED THIS APP is extra, like invoicing, time tracking and using the client portal. This was not made clear initially. The client service is terrible. I would ask questions but there response was really terrible english language - not what I would expect from an international app that everyone should be able to understand. Especially a client service person called Darla. Terrible and rude manners and unhelpful.!

Alternatives envisagées : Pluto LMS, monday.com et ClickUp

Pourquoi choisir ActiveCollab : I wanted a app that I could use to track my projects, my daily tasks, and has a timer. Plus I can send out cost estimates and invoices from and my clients can log into to track and make note of project progress and timeline.

Logiciel antérieur : Todoist et Asana

Pourquoi passer à ActiveCollab : Activecollab seems to be the cheapest option where I could managment my projects, finances and clients from one place.
