It's an ideal fit for software development, marketing, and design agencies or consultancies looking for a modern "single source of truth" tool — one where AI handles the operational busywork so teams can focus on what actually matters. It includes a built-in AI Assistant and custom-built Agents that can run work across all areas: sales pipeline management, resource planning / scheduling, time tracking, project management, budgeting, invoicing, and profitability reporting. With reusable Skills, you can also write down and share your know-how and business procedures, so everyone in the company is an AI power user. One of Productive's biggest benefits is its strong, profitability-focused reporting: it tracks not only rates and revenues but also employee salaries and company overhead. Its forecasting features also let you predict future budget spend and profit margins. Now, with AI, Productive can fetch and interpret numbers for you, so you get a quick answer in plain language. You can also get downloadable, formatted AI overviews in the form of a presentation or slide deck, and even pull in data from other MCP-supported tools in your stack with Connectors. With the integrated Notetaker, you can also record meetings directly into Productive, and turn them into tasks and to-dos where your team already works. Productive includes a number of integrations and a native MCP Server, so you can work wherever you prefer. It's a fast, user-friendly, cloud-based tool with a very active development roadmap that's constantly improved and upgraded with new features. > > Verdict: Rated **4.6/5** by 109 users.

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. > > 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. ----- ### "The final solution for Service Companies" — 4.0/5 > **Guglielmo** | *8 April 2026* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Productive provides many different solutions that most Service Companies need, in one place, allowing multiple team members from different departments to have everything under control. > > **Cons**: It can be a bit complex and time-consuming to get familiar with. However, once you’ve mastered its potential, it’s an investment you’ll never regret. > > Productive is a excellent solutions combining CRM, task management, deal flow mgmt, timesheet and many more. ----- ### "Productive Review" — 5.0/5 > **Alexis** | *21 September 2026* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: What I like most about Productive is the ability to have an organized project management collaboration platform. Very easy to track projects\! > > **Cons**: I have nothing negative to report regarding Productive. It is a great software with no issues to report. > > My overall experience with Productive has been positive. It is a great software for managing tasks and organizing projects. ----- ### "Productive reveiw" — 3.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *14 February 2024* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: Scheduling, Task management and Time management, Customers help > > **Cons**: It is sometimes slow, after update a lot of things are not working, some updates make my job harder > > It could be more connected and adapted to the needs of a particular job ----- ### "Productive - One software to rule them all" — 5.0/5 > **Aljosa** | *23 June 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Overall, I think the product is amazing. You have everything in one place, easy to navigate, and especially the latest notetaker. All the previous ones we used were not able to work with our native language, but Productive made it work. Project and task management is straightforward. Learning and onboarding to the app is super easy. > > **Cons**: Some aspects of budgeting and invoicing can be a bit tricky at first, but after some time, you get the hang of it. ----- Page: 1 / 6\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/176476/productive?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/176476/productive) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
