No incentive was offered It does what I need it to do and for a price that is worth it. Again, tracking project profitability is my main reason to use it. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros The main reason I chose Productive was to be able to track the profitability of each project, by assigning a cost by ressource (employee) and tracking billing + expenses on each project. The reporting and customizable dashboard are very appreciated features. I also like the fact that we can email directly to a deal to add entries in the crm. I also like the Notion type documents. Could have more options though #### Cons - The CRM is a bit basic. Notes and followups could be more intuitive and organized. - The navigation inside the app is not always clear and I found myself often searching for the way to get to where I need. - When adding time outside the dates of a budget, the error preventing me from adding it was annoying. I would have prefferred a warning and be able to choose to add it anyway. - I'd like to be able to quickly create a task from the time tracking entry on the calendar view if I found myself on working on something that was not initially listed. - Managing billing and budget is not user friendly, especially when pre-selling hours. #### Reasons for switching to Productive Profitability tracking along with time tracking and resource pricing.

Overall, Productive has been a reliable and powerful tool for managing projects, budgets, and time tracking. It allows us to track resources, costs, and progress in one place, giving us full control over our projects and saving significant time compared to using separate tools. With API integrations, we can seamlessly connect data from our HR system and deliver detailed timesheets to clients, further improving efficiency and transparency. Even though we don’t use every feature, the core functions we rely on work smoothly and provide us with confidence in our project and budget management. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros - Very well-structured project and budget management. - Powerful time tracking that helps us monitor work and productivity. - Full control and visibility over project progress from start to finish. - API integrations allow us to import data from our HR application and provide detailed timesheets for clients. - Intuitive interface that makes it easy for the team to adopt. - Reporting features that keep everything transparent. #### Cons - Some features (like invoicing) are not relevant for us, since we use our existing CRM system. - Certain security features are only available in the Ultimate plan, but we cannot fully benefit from the entire scope of that edition as we primarily use Productive for project tracking. #### Reasons for choosing Productive We chose Productive because it offers an all-in-one solution for projects, budgets, time tracking, and reporting in a simple and user-friendly platform. #### Reasons for switching to Productive We switched from Microsoft Excel and SharePoint because Productive provides an all-in-one solution for project management, budgets, and time tracking. Unlike spreadsheets and shared folders, Productive gives us real-time visibility, better collaboration, and direct links between time, budgets, and reporting — saving us time and reducing the risk of errors. --- ### Productive for collaboration - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Julia M. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Management Consulting - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: September 2025 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

Productive has made the collaboration SO much easier. Easy for customers to understand and for my teams to manage. Project collaboration is great! #### Cons Resourcing can be a bit off, some buggs. Would also love if there was an easier connection with the budget so we don't have to update on two places. #### Reasons for choosing Productive Easy to manage. Had everything we need in one place: logging time, planning time, project management, working with customers. #### Reasons for switching to Productive We needed a better way to work with our customers. --- ### Productive: The All-in-One Powerhouse - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Robert T. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Information Technology and Services - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: July 2025 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

Productive's customization allows us to streamline all of our agency's intricate operations. Even in the case of bugs or complaints, they have the best teams who are always willing to work with you on a resolution and they genuinely take all feedback to heart. I've never felt so heard by a customer support team. They don't just listen, they act! #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros The incredible depth of customization across all elements of Productive. We are able to add custom fields to our user records, our projects, tasks, reporting, you name it! This allows us to handle edge cases within our agency with ease and takes a huge weight off of our operational team's shoulders. The custom permissions options allow us to fine-tune the roles of our teammates who wear multiple hats! #### Cons Occasional medium to high impact bugs - but they're usually fixed very quickly after being reported. #### Reasons for switching to Productive Needed an increase in customization and reporting options and wanted to use one tool rather than both Harvest/Forecast separately. --- ### If you run an agency, this is for you. - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Caine S. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Marketing and Advertising - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: May 2025 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Amazing, love the product and especially the productive team give you as a customer. It really is a case study on how you should be supporting your customers. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros It has completely changed (in a good way) how we operate as an agency. Productive allows you to view all your key agency data in one place. #### Cons To be honest, nothing really, any feature that we feel is missing is usually already in the roadmap. #### Reasons for choosing Productive Better features, better access to agency data #### Reasons for switching to Productive We wanted a better way to manage the data in our agency --- ### Great for Team Collaboration and Task Tracking - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Rafa R. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Computer Software - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: October 2025 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Productive is a solid project management tool that balances usability with functionality. It’s great for teams looking to manage projects, tasks, and collaboration in one place. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Customer support: 3/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Good templates and views that speed up project setup and clean and intuitive user interface that makes navigation easy. #### Cons Reporting and analytics could be more customisable and occasional minor delays when switching between large projects. #### Reasons for switching to Productive To have more functionality and potential new integrations into one platform. --- ### The last project management and team collaboration software you will ever need - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Kacper J. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Marketing and Advertising - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: April 2022 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review. Productive has been a huge game changer for us. Our team has taken on Productive and have been using it religiously for everything, something that was easily forgotten or avoided when we were using other software that wasn't as fast, intuitive and easy to use. From an admin point of view, it has made our work easier and quicker - giving us information and overviews for things that would have otherwise required custom integrations or hours in spreadsheets. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros We haven't had a single issue with Productive and have yet to hit a limitation or thing to improve. It has been such a breath of fresh air to come across an out-of-the-box solution that fits our team and way of working. It's clear that Productive listens to user feedback and quickly implements features and fixes. Their support is also outstanding - going above and beyond to provide excellent customer service. #### Cons Having tried 6 other project management and team collaboration software, I am pleased to say that Prodocutive has surpassed my expectations and there isn't anything that we don't like. #### Reasons for choosing Productive Teamwork was much more limited and basic. The UI alone was what helped us choose Productive as everyone was able to use it without training or worrying about "where is this or that". You get what you see with Productive. #### Reasons for switching to Productive The cluttered user interface, lots of small bugs like issues with bulk actions, inconsistent and unreliable emails, and much more. It really put us off from using the software. --- ### Great project/task management product! - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Clifton T. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Graphic Design - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: August 2023 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Implementation was easy with the Design team and easy with clients once they were trained a bit on the product. Overall my team likes Productive way better than previous Project Management tools we've used. The reporting has also been amazing! Seeing how profitable the company is as a whole and each employee. That's a game changer! #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Project managemement, task management, time tracking, invoicing, there isn't much I don't love about Productive! #### Cons I wish there was a way to better implement email into the product. Right now email and Productive are separate. Having them tied closer together would help eliminate on additional product. #### Reasons for choosing Productive Had almost all of the features I needed. Others were missing features. #### Reasons for switching to Productive Made the switch from Accelo, as the email integration caused all kinds of issues and our email got placed on blacklists, so we had to switch our domain name completely for our website and email. We originally used Teamwork, then switched to Accelo because of the email integration. Teamwork was great, but missed some key features at the time we used it. --- ### Great tool for us in the web industry - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Nicklas R. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Computer Software - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: April 2022 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review. Nothing to complaint about, works great since we started. We use it every day. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Great product that is easy to use with a nice inteface. Love the updated design and we rely most on the project management and time reporting function. They work really well. #### Cons Kind of expensive if you have a bigger team. Works good for us since we are a small team. #### Reasons for switching to Productive Better interface, better fit for our business model. --- ### Game-Changer for Building Habits and Staying Organized! - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Diego Michel S. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Construction - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: January 2025 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. My overall experience with Productive has been fantastic. The app is user-friendly, keeps me motivated, and has genuinely improved how I manage my time and habits. It’s a great tool for staying organized and building consistency in daily routines. Highly recommended! #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros What I liked the most about Productive is how easy it is to use and how it helps me stay consistent with my goals. The reminders are subtle but effective, and the progress tracking is super motivating. It’s great to see how small daily habits add up over time! #### Cons What I liked least about Productive is that some features are locked behind a subscription. While the free version is great, it would be nice to have access to a few more advanced tools without upgrading. --- ### Productive IS productive! - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Toby O. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Marketing and Advertising - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: February 2025 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. I've used a fair few platforms in my career and Productive stands above them all. I will recommend it to any businesses that I will go on to work for in the future. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros The seamless cross functionality in Productive, from budgets to resourcing, makes it of the top platforms I've used so far in my career. #### Cons I would like more customisation in the resourcing view. For example, I would like to be able to reorder the resources on the left panel instead of the alphabetical order that is locked there now. --- ### The most feature-rich, easy to use PM we've ever used - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Heming N. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Computer Software - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: April 2022 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review. Overall, we are extremely happy with this tool. We tested 30 other products before committing to this, and its the best business decision we've made. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros We became an early client of these folks a few years ago. They are constantly rolling out new features, including a lot of specific requests we've made to them. They ALWAYS respond to our requests and update us on their status. They have, far-and-away, the most responsive customer service of any SAAS product we subscribe to. And the product is head and shoulders above any of the other tools we used over the years (we've trued dozens including all the big ones you've heard of) #### Cons It's meant to be an end-to-end solution for small-ish agencies. So beyond project management, there's financial reporting, invoicing, expense tracking (including Quickbooks integration), and sales tracking. The Sales tool is probably the least developed. It works great, and we use it, but it would be nice if it were more tightly integrated with the rest of the tool so revenue forecaster would be more accurate. There are a number of customization features, so were able to cobble together an adaquate tool (we previously used both Salesforce and Hubspot) #### Reasons for choosing Productive Basecamp, Asana, Jira, Microsoft Project, NetSuite, Pivotal Tracker, Monday, Trello, Wrike, Zoho #### Reasons for switching to Productive Redbooth was easy to use, but not sophiticated enough for our needs. --- ### Party For Our Planet LLC - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Katherine I. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Events Services - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: November 2023 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. 10/10 would recommend to anyone leading a team, or who just wants to stay organized #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Great for staying organized for large multi purpose businesses #### Cons Is not integrated with social media as it could be --- ### Really good and it solves so many problems for me (with great customer care) - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Haris H. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Information Technology and Services - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: August 2023 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Really simple to use and so effective and saves time and energy of you know what you want. #### Cons Nothing specific to say here, did not find something that is that bad. --- ### A great move! - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Karla V. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Online Media - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: February 2024 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically.

It strikes the right balance between powerful features and ease of use. I love using Productive, especially features such as Insights which really position it as a unique tool on the market. #### Cons Productive is best utilized when the entire organization is actively using the tool. Buy-in from most if not all internal stakeholders is highly recommended. --- ### Excellent all-in-one tool for productive running of the company. From sales to invoices, with all of - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Ida P. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Accounting - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: February 2018 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review. productivity #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros I've implemented Productive as a project management tool into my company ENTG 3 years ago. We are providing numerous digital services to our clients and big chunk of that is also production. When I tried it it was still in the early phases but basics as task and time management and contacts were covered. Since then, Productive had upgraded by listening to it's users like us into a tool that you can use for running a whole organization. We have our sales pipeline, our project management and profitability reports, scheduling from recently and even invoices creation through 1 click. Would really warmly recommend it to everyone that don't feel like bothering and paying to 5 different systems in order to get the same results that Productive can make in just one. #### Cons Mobile app is still not performing in the optimium experience like the web app, but it's still very usable and improving daily. --- ### A good but expensive option - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Jaka M. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Design - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: April 2022 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review. It's good but certain aspects could be improved. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros I like the split of booked and billed hours, as well as the ease of invoicing #### Cons It's very expensive compared to similar products. The mobile app is clunky. #### Reasons for choosing Productive The feature set #### Reasons for switching to Productive It lacked features --- ### Simple, fuss-free and meets all our needs as a growing agency. - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Arman A. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Environmental Services - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: March 2018 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros My main issue in the past with other software was that they were too complex, had too many features or had too much of a learning curve. Productive on the other hand is easy to get your head around and start working with from day one. Our team has now been using Productive for almost 2 months and we're active on it daily. The main features we use are creating sales (which is essentially leads), creating projects (in our case new client projects), calculating project costs, creating tasks and assigning them to team members and sharing the project with clients via the dashboard. What's more is that Productive have outstanding customer service, I actually just received a letter in the mail today written by their team which proves they're ready to go above and beyond for their users. Lastly, their price point is unbeatable. The Pricing page says it all and compared to the other software out there, Productive is easily the best value for money. #### Cons Small bug with the hourly rate when creating a new project. --- ### Easy to use and gives a lot of handy insights for a business owner - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Yonah v. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Marketing and Advertising - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: October 2021 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically.

You can truly manage your business with one app. #### Cons the ability to easily create a report when a employee goes 'over budget' or 'over estimate' it counts as billable hours and not as over budget hours (those are not billable) - but you can create a custom report (takes a couple minutes) but would still help me out a lot #### Reasons for choosing Productive all-in-one #### Reasons for switching to Productive we needed more insights on the business, not only the projects --- ### Great product - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Ryan M. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Marketing and Advertising - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: April 2022 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Really great task management software with good ui.
