ActiveCollab Review: Helps You Manage All Your Projects

July 13, 2009 by Tyrone  

In today’s post I would like to share with you an excellent piece of software that I use in my business. I had been struggling in the past to manage multiple projects all at once and when you have 3 staff working for you full time, you need to have good systems in place to manage them. Furthermore, it can be a real disaster when you take on more work without having a project management software in place. You will receive more emails from your clients and programmers and before you know it, you will have forgotten who sent what.

This is why I turned to ActiveCollab. A few weeks ago I did a podcast with Adam Lever from Big Screen Promotions and on the topic of How To Outsource Your Internet Business. In the podcast we discussed about how to outsource your Internet business and also mentioned a few software products that were freely available. One we mentioned was Dot Project and this is an open source software that is quite basic. I personally felt it wasn’t enough to manage the projects and opted to another option.

ActiveCollab – A Project Management Software I Love!

When I found ActiveCollab it was originally open source and was free up until Version 1.0. Then the team decided to charge a license fee starting at $199.00 which I believe is well worth the price. A lot of times I don’t buy software or recommend it unless it either:

  1. Saves time
  2. Saves money
  3. Easy to use


ActiveCollab met all those criteria’s and the amount of time and money it has saved me is thousands. Furthermore I thought I’d give you a guided tour of what the software looks like inside. That way you will actually see how simple and easy it is to use.

If you are looking to outsource and manage people I highly recommend purchasing ActiveCollab. There are two versions available: Corporate and Small Biz. If you can afford the Corporate version I would buy that one as it gives you a lifetime license and all the features you saw in the video.
