Users Love Productive
Running a profitable agency shouldn’t imply using endless tools and platforms—we believe that you need only one.
Check Who’s Overbooked and Who Needs More Work?
Balance your team’s workload and assigned tasks. Learn who’s overbooked and who can take on more work by casting an eye on heatmaps. Check who’s on vacation or sick leave.
Orion Jensen
CEO, Clear Launch
Our project management team looks at all their projects and balances all their resources and sees if we have any holes or if we’re fighting over the same resources. We’re able to trade and plan through it, which is not something that we did before.
Check Your Agency’s Financials In Real Time
Monitor your revenue, costs, profit, average rate, hours worked, and everything spending-related. Use history and present data to predict and plan future decisions.
Orion Jensen
CEO, Clear Launch
We’ve always known how we were doing as a company on a monthly basis, but knowing on a per-project level, in real time—we never really had that visibility.

Having a platform that considers everybody’s salaries, as well as operating expenses, and feeds that into project budgets gives us a much more real-time and accurate view of the profitability of specific projects.

From a managerial point of view, the main benefit of the tool is seeing your profitability in real time. It’s there. We don’t have to calculate it or ask for financial reports from our accountant.

Insights have become our central place to follow key metrics, analytics, numbers, graphs, and—simply said—the pulse of our agency. Currently it’s hard to imagine what our jobs would look like without insights. It’s a lock-in feature for us, for sure.

If it wasn’t for Productive, we would have struggled to steer our company’s growth. We tripled in size since we started using it.
