we are really small design studio working on client projects. everybody takes his tasks out of awork and tracks his times there. it's super easy to use for young and old.

Pros

It's easy to use and you get a clear overview of your tasks. I love the automations. The great integration of time tracking and Lexoffice is a game changer.

Cons

I would love to track times directly on a client. Sometimes there are super small tasks where it is not worth it to create a new project for. I feel like sortable priority tags are missing.

Alternatives Considered

Jira, monday.com, Asana and Notion

Reasons for Choosing awork

because of the built in time tracking and the clear interface. and it's much easier to customize the workflows. only relevant settings - you have to study jira to set it up really properly.

Response from awork

Hey Thomas,
thank you for your review.
We have good news for you: There is a new awork feature, called timeline. Now you can plan your projects visually, similar to Gantt-Charts.

We hope you love it.

We are still in the initial phase of using awork, but so far it seems to be the optimal solution for mapping both complex project processes and small tasks in daily business.

Cons

Definitely a recommendation, combines tickets and time tracking perfectly

Reviewed on 05/05/2021

Pros

It is very smart that you can track times directly at the ticket for a task. If you want to work efficiently you have to integrate time tracking in your workflow. When you do this time tracking is your daily bread and must work with the least amount of effort. This is the case in awork

Cons

Sometimes the webinterface leads to higher battery consumption than I think a native Mac or Windows app would have

Great tool which combines all I need for organizing my projects and tracking time.

Reviewed on 11/03/2022

Pros

Organizing projects and tasks is great and the best is the integration of time tracking.
Additionally it is also possible to organize customers and assign them to projects, which is not standard in other softwares.

Cons

The team planning is improvable. (absences, appointments, ..)

Alternatives Considered

TrackingTime, TOGGLE, monday.com and Asana

Reasons for Switching to awork

awork combines all the things we need for organizing our projects. We are a team of only two persons, with no employees. There are tasks and subtasks, tracking time, customer organization, .. all we need for organizing us. And it's simple! There are enough possibilities for customization but not too much. And the pricing is fair. Asana and monday.com were too complicated for us (monday too expensive as well) and toggle was too simple.

We were looking for several months and tried lots of other project management tools. Either they were too big or they were just too ugly and old school. We were looking for something great that would meet our requirements for agile project management and evaluations. Communication to and within the projects was also important to us. Fortunately, we have found awork that exactly meets our requirements. And oh my god, this customer service needs an extra award.

Pros

What we like most is the usability (also cool design, modern colors, etc.) and the fact that we were able to integrate the tool very easily into our processes and even simplify them with awork. The best thing is also acceptance by the employees, who love to use the tool (requirement to introduce a new tool).

Cons

Currently we are fully satisfied with awork. Due to the roadmap that they have online (to see what will be updated or integrated next), we are looking foward to all helpful features that they launch.

Once again, I was faced with the challenge of always having to use different tools. (Time tracking, project management, invoicing,...) So when I discovered awork, I was immediately hooked from the start. It combined my different tools into one bundle and it saves me a lot of time and it's almost automated everything is done.

Pros

The ease of quickly creating customers, projects and tasks. You get a good overview of which tasks are still open for each project. You can immediately evaluate which projects are done and can be billed. Linked with easybill, this makes my daily work as an entrepreneur much easier.

Cons

As with most new tools, it takes a lot of time in the beginning to get a good overview. But fortunately there are many webinars where you are taught the most important things.

Ein völlig neues Projektmanagementgefühl:-)

Reviewed on 27/04/2020

Im Gegensatz zu anderen Tools (wir hatten schon viele im Einsatz), ist aWork praxistauglich (zumindest für Agenturen). Es gibt viele durchdachte Kleinigkeiten, die einem das Leben erleichtern und Klicks sparen. aWork denkt mit. Auch neue Funktionen, die regelmäßig erscheinen, funktionieren (bisher) immer problemlos. Man merkt auch hier, dass es da ein funktionierendes System gibt.

Der Support antwortet bei Fragen oder Wünschen schnell und fragt auch gezielt nach (keinen "Floskelantworten").

Man merkt, wir sind begeistert:-)

Pros

Es gibt sehr viele Dinge die einem den Tag einfacher machen.

Dashboard: Damit hat man jederzeit den Überblick was man heute, diese Woche oder später zu tun hat, sieht, wer aus dem Team nicht da ist und noch einiges mehr. Ich habe mir für mein "morgendliches Ritual" eine sich wiederholende Aufgabe erstellt, die dort jeden Morgen auftaucht und ich Punkt für Punkt abarbeite. Das hilft ungemein.

Projekte: Das besondere sind hier die verschiedenen "Blickwinkel", die man auf ein Projekt haben kann. Andere Tools mussten wir dazu oft "verbiegen".

In aWork habe ich drei grundsätzliche Ansichten (Listen, (Kanban) Board, Timeline). Anders als bei vielen (allen?) anderen Produkten, sind die Listen aber keine andere Darstellung des Board, sondern autonom. Damit hat man die Möglichkeit ein Projekt einfach und schnell nach den eigenen Bedürfnissen zu strukturieren (z. B. nach Projektphasen oder Disziplinen (Grafik, Content, technische Umsetzung, ... ).

Die Spalten im Board sind frei definierbar. Hier wird man meist die verschiedenen Stati wie z. B. To Do, In Arbeit, In Überprüfung, Erledigt, Blockiert festlegen. Das Besondere ist hier z. B. dass man die Liste mit den Spalten kombinieren kann und somit sofort erkennen kann, wie es z. B. bei der Grafik aussieht.

Super sind auch: Teamauslastung, Zeiterfassung, speicherbare Filter, (wahrscheinlich) der "Projekt Autopilot" (ist noch recht neu) und die wirklich permanente Weiterentwicklung. Wegen Platzmangels ist nun Schluss.

Cons

Das ist jammern auf hohem Niveau. Die PWA (Desktop-App) startet bei mir immer erst beim Zweiten mal (was kein echtes Problem ist). aWorkt merkt sich sonst alle Einstellungen für alle Projekte separat. Bei den Aktivitäten vergisst es aber die Einstellung.

Reasons for Choosing awork

TaskWorld wird quasi gar nicht weiterentwickelt und wir konnten unsere Arbeitsabläufe nur grob annähernd und mit zu viele Overhead (es muss viel geklickt werden) umsetzen. Man bekommt auch deutlich weniger Benachrichtigungen, weil aWork hier offenbar nicht einfach jede kleine Änderung einfach rausschickt, sondern mehr zusammenfasst und (anscheinend) wichtiges von unwichtigem unterscheidet.

Reasons for Switching to awork

Mit aWork können wir Projekte recht genau nach unserem Arbeitsablauf abbilden. Es unterstützt einem tatsächlich smart bei der Arbeit und hat nicht einfach nur viele Funktionen. Der Wechsel war schon eine Offenbarung:-)

Bin absolut begeistert! Hört sich jetzt vllt. etwas euphorisch an. Aber es ist genau das was wir brauchen.
Einfaches übersichtliches Projektmanagement (PM).
Individuell anpassbar, ohne dass es kompliziert ist.
Verbindet PM UND Zeiterfassung UND Teamplanung.

Pros

Mega gut, dass aWork in Deutschland gehostet ist und nicht überm großen Teich.
Super Projektübersichten. Die drei Varianten Aufgaben anzeigen zu lassen (Listen, Boards, Timeline) sind super übersichtlich. Habe ich so einfach und klar noch in keiner anderen Software gesehen.

Cons

Was mir noch fehlt ist eine Desktop App, um ganz einfach Zeiten zu tracken.
Geht aber schon im Browser und mobile.
