ActiveCollab vs Freedcamp

Scenarios where ActiveCollab works well 1) ActiveCollab works well for small teams specifically T&M teams.Its invoicing feature is unique & can make your life easy. 2) It is very easy to use & posses good range of filters like on the task list, we can drag/drop tasks, Filter by assignee's,
tasks lists, due dates, or completed tasks. 3) It has some simple but awesome features like when you're in
the middle of writing something i.e a comment on story and get interrupted,
it retains what you wrote. 4) It allows you to tag team members in threads of comments to grab their attention, its really needed when teams are distributed. Thus helping team members to collaborate easily & stay on same page. 5) It integrates pretty well with other web apps like quickbooks , Slack, Trello, HubSpot, Zapier etc Scenarios where ActiveCollab did not work well 1) Tasks can not have multiple assignee's here so if two members are working on same task it did not allow you to reflect that. 2) Sorting capability is not their under invoicing 3) It did not work well for larger teams 4) Search option is not very detailed & you may end up wasting lot of time searching one particular bug or issue.

I think Freedcamp is best suited when you have to delegate tasks to team members and you can just follow their progress on the app without them having to come and inform you every time. It makes both delegation of tasks and follow-up on the team effortless. Moreover, it serves as a fantastic reminder for recurring tasks.

• Great for project and task assignments, project workflow and communications.
• Solid web-based platform that doesn't require software downloads, also includes great mobile platform.
• Great reporting tools for managing billing, estimating, project workflow and other essential project details.
• Allows for both the agency and its clients to interact on a single platform using role-specific permissions.

• Does not maintain default categories for tasks
• Makes information difficult to share with others not on AC
• Relies on other people to track their time correctly in categories for estimates
• Mobile app is very hard to use and not user-friendly if you are working with multiple projects

We have not required support for ActiveCollab as it works pretty seamlessly. We didn't have any issues with using the platform or with any billing issues. The self-service aspect of the platform is robust and easy to navigate so we have not encountered any errors that required assistance from the support team.

ActiveCollab is easier to use and simpler in its setup. It has the right mix of features and simplicity. It's also project-oriented which is important for our workflow. Other tools are often too task-oriented, making it hard to track projects. Overall, ActiveCollab has a great mix of simplicity with good features.

• Allows our team to stay organized and keep conversations on tasks.
• The To-Do List email every morning helps me mentally prepare and know exactly what I should be doing as soon as I start work.
• Powerful and useful integrations save lots of time (Google Drive, Slack, Dropbox, Zapier and more!).
