Compare ActiveCollab vs Smartsheet

This solution is marketing planning done right. ActiveCollab is a cloud-based solution with subscription plans starting at $11 per month for three users. The feature allowing users to split tasks into sub-tasks is a valuable one in our eyes, and allows users to breakdown larger more complex projects into manageable chunks. By collaborating and setting dependencies between asks, there’s a better chance of reaching completion goals.
ActiveCollab has strong task filter options, more than we’ve seen on other solutions, and these include assigned users, custom labels or due dates. There is also automatic rescheduling for changes to be made to the main task. And, all tasks can be viewed in a timeline, including Kanban board, calendar, or list accommodating to each user’s preference. Catering to more visual users, we think ActiveCollab is a great platform for improved communication between teams, ideal for creative industries.

This work execution platform is a collaboration tool offering a familiar spreadsheet-style interface. While offering nothing new, we found the familiarity to be incredibly helpful in making this a fast and easy learning curve for all users. Smartsheet has features such as resource management, task management, file sharing, and timeline tracking for enhanced workflow throughout all areas of the business.
Starting at $7/user/month, Smartsheet is a fairly priced platform with excellent features. For us, the improved collaboration options such as project tracking, and improved visibility enhance efficiency in the workplace. All projects and plans can be easily shared so that the entire team knows what the project status is, thus keeping everyone on track. For companies looking for consistency, then Smartsheet is a strong solution. It meets that need through apps and desktop interfaces allowing full project access anywhere at any time.
