<h5 style="text-align: center;"><i>Break your project into tasks and subtasks while adding due dates, assignees, and files.</i></h5>

<p>When dealing with multiple projects and clients, it’s easy to get mixed up if you don’t stay organized. (<i>“Wait, did they say they wanted ‘more class’ or ‘more crass’?”</i>)</p>

<p>With ActiveCollab, you can <b>group tasks into task lists</b> categorized based on the phase of the project, like discovery or ideate. Or you can group by the type of project, such as admin or marketing.</p>

<p>You can also <b>use labels to add progress details to each task</b>—assigned, in progress, blocked, completed, approved, and more.</p>

<p>Finding specific tasks on the platform is easy when you can <b>search for tasks using the search feature or filter tasks</b> based on task list, assignee, due date, or labels.</p>

</p><p>With ActiveCollab, your team will never lose track of another project task, file, due date, or conversation again!</p>

<p>You can <b>break down projects into actionable tasks, assign due dates, and attach files</b> to ensure team members have everything they need to complete the task on time.</p>

<p><b>Assign tasks directly to team members</b>, tracking their progress through the comments.</p>

<p>Got assignments that can't begin until others are completed? <b>Connect tasks with a dependency and use automatic rescheduling</b> to make sure they’re assigned at the right time.</p>

<h5 style="text-align: center;"><i>Break your project into tasks and subtasks while adding due dates, assignees, and files.</i></h5>

<p>When dealing with multiple projects and clients, it’s easy to get mixed up if you don’t stay organized. (<i>“Wait, did they say they wanted ‘more class’ or ‘more crass’?”</i>)</p>

<p>With ActiveCollab, you can <b>group tasks into task lists</b> categorized based on the phase of the project, like discovery or ideate. Or you can group by the type of project, such as admin or marketing.</p>

<p>You can also <b>use labels to add progress details to each task</b>—assigned, in progress, blocked, completed, approved, and more.</p>

<p>Finding specific tasks on the platform is easy when you can <b>search for tasks using the search feature or filter tasks</b> based on task list, assignee, due date, or labels.</p>

<p>Not everyone likes to visualize projects in the same way. (<i>“Are you a Kanban gal or a Gantt guy?” Wow, BuzzFeed is really scraping the bottom of the barrel for this one.</i>)</p>

<p>With ActiveCollab, you get to <b>choose how you view your tasks</b> on the platform based on your own preferences.</p>

<p><b>Choose Kanban view for columns, Gantt for a timeline view, or List to see your task lists</b>—giving everyone the opportunity to have an overview of what they need to work on and when.</p>
