I really appreciate the simplicity and the power behind the features it delivers.

I have used a lot of project management software between different jobs and Active Collab has by far been the easiest, most straightforward, and practical. I love how streamlined it is.

Ease of use, very similar in concept to Facebook. The price is super reasonable.

I love how easy it was to implement across our IT team. We started using this for our project management and it has drastically increased our efficiency and communication.

There are MANY other project management tools out there and I've used a number of them. Active Collab is the best in my opinion in light of the integrations and ease of use.

Simple user interface and great customer support.

Convoluted structure is a hindrance to workflow.

Second, the price per user is very affordable. It would be a great tool to use if you want to spend the time on the API to customize it to your needs.

It does these with ease. Then it layered great collaborative working.

It really covers all the basis that we need in our process and we love it for that.

I found the software relatively easy to use compared to other PM softwares. It offers great features and is inexpensive so brilliant to manage even small projects.

My team and I do really like the simplicity of the software. It helps us focus on doing the tasks rather than figuring out how to use the software correctly to assign tasks.

It is a valuable software, which really helps its users on a daily basis and is very flexible in its operation. We greatly appreciate his progress and are reassured about his future.

Easy to use also for new team members. Good integration with third parties to share documents.

How easy collaboration with team members it is. How it seamlessly integrates with Google Drive.

Out of the box it is missing things that I would have expected to be present.

While it is perfect for managing many different types of projects, this is still not the perfect tool for managing software development projects.

Its a powerful, yet simple project management tool. It has user friendly interface which is the best part of this product.

We tried many alternatives, but the simplicity and the ability to self host won us over. Task lists, Kanban Style boards, Time tracking, Notifying and Assigning all work well.

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.

Time logging was difficult compared to the software we moved to later.

Overall I cannot recommend ActiveCollab enough. The application is extremely user friendly and the support staff is extremely responsive and very helpful.

More and more its becoming a part of my workday. Loving the ability to click on activity on the left to see the company wide activity for each day.

Active Collab gets the balance right between offering lots of features and keeping the interface user friendly.

It's been buggy lately and the issue with images not uploading has been awful.

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.

I like the rich features for project management, and the ease of use. As well as the ability to manage billing.

Two things stand out about Active Collab. First, it has a fully customizable API that can be installed on premises.

Sometimes I struggle with the organization, but overall it's a decent tool.

We ended up transferring from ActiveCollab to Teamwork fairly quickly because it caused some business problems for us.

The only thing I have found that I dislike about ActiveCollab is there is no due date for overall projects.

Super easy to use and i did not even have to read how to use it! very user friendly and easy to communicate with others.

I had problems reaching customer service when there was a problem and it wasn't always clear when there was a problem was it coming from my end or from the customer end.

While it's useful for its international wire transfer functionality, cost is higher than other similar service providers, UI is complex, and customer service is limbo.

In my opinion, this is perfect for companies who contract independent contract workers.

At one point, we were unable to send a certain zero dollar invoice which was frustratign because even though it had no monetary or collections effect, it interrupted out logging process.

We had to cut down on our users in the app because of the cost.

I like the notifications received when invoices are received and later when money is expected and then deposited into your account.

Once you get the hang of the program, it's pretty straightforward. Nice having everything in one place rather than scattered between many different programs.

There is always an annoying issue with bill.com.

It's easy to navigate and send invoices, and anything that makes it easier to get paid for freelance work is great in my book.

I feel things started getting worse around the time they went public, but that could be a coincidence. Pricing has gone up considerably in recent years.

My experience has been great. They eagerly accept user feedback and seem to want to improve, but I think they are doing great already.

I have several clients that are using this product and all have had excellent results with it and have recommended it to other companies.

I like the ease of receiving payments from our customers and being able to research payments received.

We absolutely love the fact that Bill.com integrates smoothly with Intuit products and services. Quick and easy sign-up and setup.

They also have really great customer support that care about helping you get the information you need.

The ability to use a feature-rich mobile app was also important. Lastly, the support for multiple bank accounts is helpful for deposits.

I use it every day to keep track of bills and to pinpoint what needs to be paid. I really like that there is AI built in the software.

This was an insane requirement. If you want to use this for your vendors BEWARE! it is not convenient for us AT ALL.

I like that it is user friendly and even has an app to go along with the website to make processing even easier.

Bull.com has always been good but the newest version is extremely user friendly and saves a lot of time.

It seemed like a great product for what we needed.

I am a freelancer that has used the platform several times to send out bills months. Very user friendly and simple understand the platform.

The website will get stuck and I have to zoom out to see anything, I won't get accurate information about when I'm supposed to get my payment (I once waited TWO MONTHS to get paid).

I like that we can integrate our sales from our POS, Aloha, to our HotSchedules account to forecast sales and help control our labor costs.

Their live chat reps are very helpful. Has the ability to sync with many popular accounting software (NetSuite, Quickbooks, Intact).

Well suited for any medium of business and must say excellent mobile app.

I often talk to companies about bill.com because of the simplicity of the system. Bill.com allows us to keep a paperless system and the integration with Intacct works wonderfully.

Cost of the system if super inexpensive and the capabilities work smoothly with Quickbooks, very user-friendly and paperless.

ActiveCollab is a project management solution for creative professionals. It offers cloud-based subscription plans or a self-hosting license.


Projects are split into tasks and subtasks. Tasks can be filtered by the due date, assigned users, or custom labels. Dependencies between the tasks can be set, so there’s always an exact order of tasks. Automatic rescheduling allows for the child tasks to follow the change made to the parent task automatically. Tasks can be viewed as a timeline (with shown dependencies), a kanban board, a calendar, or a list.


Users can track time and budget spent on each task, set hourly rates, send invoices directly from a project, and export reports. Automatic reminders for clients can be set when payments are overdue.


ActiveCollab offers a platform where all the communication (comments, discussions, reactions, in-app chat), projects, tasks and files are centralized. Support is provided online and via email. Monthly, yearly and one-time price plans are available.
