Considered Both Products
Avaza
Chose Avaza
Avaza takes the easy of Asana and adds the invoicing and bookkeeping capabilities you need all in one place.
Chose Avaza
Avaza's time tracking capabilities are much more detailed than Upwork's. Upwork focuses on simplicity, using a simple on/off button and a spot for taking notes about each project, but Avaza gives you more to work with, allowing you to add detailed notes and specify tasks.
Chose Avaza
I've used Trello before, but Avaza has way more features and is more applicable for cross-team collaboration. We selected Avaza for it's ability to not only project manage, but also for invoicing, expenses and it's ability to track time. We've gotten more accurate with estimate …
Chose Avaza
This is miles ahead of ActiveCollab. It has more features, the interface is easier to use and the invoicing is easier to use. Across the board better. We migrated from ActiveCollab, but that was just essentially a Fancier Wunderlist. If you just need one project and a few tasks …
Chose Avaza
I have not used any other products like Avaza.
eXo Platform
Chose eXo Platform
We chose it for the Java-based open-source platform and customization options.
Chose eXo Platform
EXo platform offers a large number of ready-to-use functions, which determined your selection. Also, that it has a user interface is well designed. It is easy to know what tasks are available in each section. Learn the system and have the best customer service.
Chose eXo Platform
We selected this product firstly because it's easy to use for end-users, even if it's not so simple to configure from an administrative point of view. Managing and tracking overall activities is quite easy and it's also possible to have an immediate vision of everything that is …
Chose eXo Platform
Economical, extensible, and ease in deployability.
Chose eXo Platform
I previously used eXo platform and now i am using Hybris. But now I want to use eXo again because of its advantages.
Chose eXo Platform
eXo platform combines a number of features such as document management, wiki, internal social networks, messaging, calendaring as well as portal functionality. It is undoubtedly a feature-packed platform of the order of e.g. Sharepoint.
Chose eXo Platform
The interface, although quite complicated, is still better than the lead competitors. It's indeed a kind of software that requires that many features and we are yet to find a company that will make it incredibly ease to use.
Chose eXo Platform
eXo Platform is a very good application, and I'm sure this application can be a "white horse" for the platforms that I have written about above. This platform has a competitive price and a multi platform environment. This platform is very easy to install, suitable for a new …
Chose eXo Platform
we can built modules and apply them over your portal. If you are looking for a framework for build a social network I strongly
Chose eXo Platform
Pligg was a pain to set up, especially on a Windows environment.
Chose eXo Platform
One of the main reasons for choosing eXo was the good UI and UX. It is well suited for social collaboration features. Chat application provided by eXo is very good and is outstanding when compared to skype. Also Calendar feature is also very helpful for social apps development …
Chose eXo Platform
vTiger, but very buggy and has to be installed on site.

There are teams who work hard, and there are those who work smart. Avaza helps you be the latter--it's is a great tool for any team collaborating on several projects, especially multiple projects with a lot of simultaneously moving parts. It has just about everything you need - from team schedules to timesheets, down to the task and sub-task monitoring. The best part for me is that we can switch from List View to Kanban to Gantt charts!

In our scenario, we're using it for DMS, too. The DMS functionalities are suited only for small enterprises because when the number of resources increases it becomes harder to manage overall configuration. Anyway software is quite easy to use from an end-user point of view and it increases collaboration, especially when the team is already suited to use collaborative tools.

Pros
  • Helps keep track of time spent on each project
  • Helps employees break down their time spent throughout the day
  • Encourages better time management skills

  • I personally love the user-friendly interface. Often you find software which is difficult to learn, and not utilized as often as it should be because of this. With eXo Platform, the interface is easy to understand, and is not particularly challenging to new users and non-tech savvy individuals.
  • It allows you to get work done, without feeling like using the platform is part of the actual work. It feels more like a natural system you would use in your leisure time to connect with friends and family, rather than a social intranet designed to facilitate employee communication and help you meet project deadlines.
  • The cloud platform allows users to easily share information and files, and collaborate on project work. Another benefit to this is it makes mobile collaboration possible.

Cons
  • I wish sub-tasks could also have due dates
  • For really big projects, we hope there could be phases (aside from sections)
  • In the chatbox, it would be great if photo attachments could be displayed as screenshots (instead of downloading the file)

  • Ajax call timing is more when creating space from eXo portal. Sometimes some UI portion was getting messed up in older version of eXo portal.
  • Should have a good validations for e.g "There are no documents available in this folder" instead of blank when there are no documents available in document folder.

This platform has a pleasant user interface, is very easy to use, and offers a lot of useful accessories and add-ons. At first it can be a little intimidating, but it doesn't take long to get used to it. It is considerably reliable and safe. Facilitates connection and collaboration with coworkers. It provides tools that allow you to capture, organize and act according to the internal knowledge of your team.

The eXo platform offers a high quality support, which satisfies the requirements of our company, especially when the platform begins to be used, due to the amount of tools that can be overwhelming. Support responses are made in a short period of time.
