ActiveCollab
Productivity workspace for service businesses
ActiveCollab is a productivity and collaboration workspace for service businesses, combining task, project, team, client, and billing management in one tool. It covers project planning, time tracking, workload and capacity management, client collaboration, estimates, invoicing, and reporting, aiming to reduce the need for separate tools.
Core modules include Projects and Tasks with List, Board, and Gantt views, dependencies, labels, recurring tasks, and templates; Time Tracking with stopwatch, timesheets, and time entry review; Productivity and Resource Planning with capacity planning, workload management, time-off management, and virtual users; Team Collaboration with in-app chat, discussions, notes, files, and a team calendar; Client Management with an address book, estimates, and shared project access; Budgeting and Profitability; Invoicing and Expense Tracking with Stripe, PayPal, and Braintree payment gateways; and Reports and Dashboards. Integrations connect external apps, and a Self-Hosted option installs the software on your own server alongside the cloud platform.
ActiveCollab is aimed at agencies and consultancies and other service businesses. It is available as a cloud service or self-hosted, with a trial that does not require a credit card.
