What we really like is: 1. The user interface is superb - intuitive and fast to use. The best we have seen. 2. Help files and customer services is excellent. There hasn't been a question without a really satisfactory answer. There isn't another system we use that is anywhere near as easy to use as Productive is. Remote working puts more pressure on the system and it has supported the team now spread out over thousands of miles. > > **Cons**: Not much - would like slightly more customisable templates to allow us to add more text and graphics to them. > > Exceptional. ----- ### "Great tool for keeping track of activity" — 5.0/5 > **Rui** | *23 October 2024* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Smooth usage, cues make it natural to use > > **Cons**: TIme reporting, it always assumes current day as default. My suggestion is: If there's time report missing for previous days, use the oldest missing day as default. > > I enjoy it. The strongest point is the UX-design, how easy it is to use. ----- ### "Disappointing reporting clutter and slow service" — 2.0/5 > **Simon** | *1 June 2023* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10 > > **Pros**: What I like most about productive is the Dark mode. They nailed that frature. > > **Cons**: Useless reports. Customer service. Clutter of code. Buggy. > > Very bad. They promise a lot, but it seems that it's not possible to actually produce the reports that they promise to be able to. ----- ### "Everything we need in one platform" — 5.0/5 > **Ian** | *14 February 2024* | Design | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Productive includes all the features we wanted and nothing we didn't. We used ClickUp for some time, but found it was hard to use and customise to our needs. Productive gives us the tools we need to keep projects on track and assigned to the right people and gives us business metrics that keep us aligned and on-point. It's been a game-changer for us, and we can only see it getting better. > > **Cons**: Productive is expensive, especially as you add more users. Other products are cheaper, but they aren't tailored to what we need, so they end up costing in other ways. ----- ### "Fantastic Support Team" — 5.0/5 > **Benjie** | *11 April 2022* | Design | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: We love that this tool is agency management in one tool\! We can track projects / tasks, as well as record employee PTO, schedule work to manage capacity, and bill ALL IN THE SAME PLACE. Customer support is responsive and immensely helpful. Especially for explaining the parts of the tool that applies to areas outside our expertise (like finances). > > **Cons**: The list layout leaves things to be desired in terms of design and organization of information. Would love to see automation, and the ability to mark tasks as dependent on / blocked by others come to the tool. The note taking tool is really basic and not co-write-friendly. > > I love it. I've looked at other tools, and turned them down simply because of their lack of reporting and all-in-one capabilities. Despite smaller features like automation, note taking, and dependency being really attractive. ----- Page: 1 / 5\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.com.au/software/113437/productive?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.com.au/software/113437/productive) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
