ActiveCollab vs Bitrix24

ActiveCollab

We have a marketing company. If you are an agency of any size and work with clients, it's easy to give your clients full access to whatever you want them to see. We allow our clients to see how their projects/tasks are going, but there is even a hidden from clients button on any task that allows you to give full visibility into any task for any and all clients.

Bitrix24

Bitrix24 is suitable for processing leads, transferring information to members, tracking the conversion and communicating with colleagues. Unfortunately, all these functions, although implemented in this product, but implemented little. It is very inconvenient to work with the leads of both me and the managers

Pros

They give you the source code to use on your own server.
It is easy to sort clients and campaigns.
The email notifications work perfectly when tagging and talking to people. They allow you to subscribe to tasks as well to keep in the loop on what is going on.

Alternatives Considered

ActiveCollab is 100% better than any of the other tools we have used. We had previously spent thousands of dollars trying out different software that was comparable, but this has been one of the best decisions we have made as a company. It's also the cheapest ongoing option, especially if you get the self-hosted version.

Bitrix24 has a very wide functionality, compared to competitors. But the technical program is crude. It is very unstable work. Therefore, our company currently uses amoCRM.

Return on Investment

It has saved us a TON of money (literally thousands) in project management software.
It has helped us gain clients because we can show them the template of what they will see and give them access to it. When others don't have software that does this.
Positive impact on ROI based on the time it's saving compared to our previous PM software.
