Pros

  • It has amazing features like Gantt charts, Powerful reporting, File sharing, Email notifications, etc. I also love its mobile apps for offering ease of accessibility.

  • We love Project Bubble for it's ease of use, but it is so much more. It's a cost effective tool that is always growing and helps keep our teams of employees on track and communicating.

  • On top of that, the software had to be easy to use and a nice interface - because, hey, I'm a designer and I like things looking pretty. This one really stood out to me, so I created a trial.

  • I have been using it for a few years now, and it just gets better and better. The interface is clean and simple - which is where most others fall down.

Cons

  • The tool’s automation capabilities need some work. Currently, there are very limited options for task automation.

  • The only thing that anyone can dislike about this product is the lack of integrations it has for now.

  • I am impressed with this tool, but lagging issues sometimes annoy me.

  • Before that we had load of demos and used various systems, like basecamp, etc. We found that most either looked bad, were difficult to use, or over complicated and the better ones charged a lot.

"Project Bubble after a year +"

Overall: Project bubble is a key part of our business. It has made us much more organized and profitable.

Pros: I love the fact that the project bubble has all of the tool I need in one ap. (projects that contain content, notes, comments, tasks, timesheets, invoices and reports)

Cons: I wish I had more time to spend getting to know the functionality of the ap.

"Easy, simple and very useful."

Overall: Ease and organization

Pros: With just a glance you can follow your projects and see the progress they have made. If doubts or concerns arise about a project, the team can work on the spot (this is very useful and practical). It is great to assign tasks to members of the work team and also, you can share files.

Cons: If it is not clear what you want to do in the project, it can become cumbersome. It is necessary that all equipment is necessarily online. You must do a prior training to use it, if you do not have knowledge of the software. For initiates, it can become complex but only for a short period of time.

"Feature-rich PM tool"

Overall: Considering the pros and cons of this tool, I would like to give 4 out of 5 stars.

Pros: I like its simple interface, economical pricing, and smart features that include Gantt charts, File sharing, and automated invoicing.

Cons: Sometimes, I face issues related to responsiveness, and this factor definitely goes against this tool.

"Enjoy different views for different needs"

Overall: With ProProfs project we are able to gain better visibility and track team performance. Every team member can see their task progress in real-time and collaborate with other departments in case of any help or confusion.

Pros: Unlike other project management tools, ProProfs Project offers you to track your ongoing projects in multiple views. For instance, you can track basic details using the Calendar view, or use Gantt Charts to see task dependencies. You can even use their Kanban Board which works like a charm as well.

Cons: No major complaint areas yet. I will keep you guys posted.

"Awesome app!"

Overall: I'm a big fan of Project Bubble and I've been using it for 1000's of projects over the last few years. Flawless and it has EVERYTHING I need!

Pros: Project Management AND Invoicing in one

Cons: I think the reporting can be more flexible and updated automatically. Like a constant overview of sales per year, per client, outstanding payments etc.. Otherwise, very happy!

"Comprehensive and insightful reports"

Overall: Till now, the experience has been wonderful. We used it to manage our projects across departments - sales, marketing, and product. It has got a powerful bunch of features that work together to give our teams a smooth experience.

Pros: The tool has got a great reporting system. It captures all activities from time spent on tasks and project status to pending tasks and financial summaries. Using this data, it delivers presentation-ready reports where insights are shown in the form of graphs and charts. This makes it extremely easy to analyze projects, identify gaps, and take the right actions on time.

Cons: It has been just three months since we started using this tool. I feel it is too early to comment on this.

"Title your review - Task management is a breeze"

Overall: I am quite happy with the tool’s performance. A thumbs-up to its unique features, budget-friendly price, and simple design. Couldn’t have asked for more!

Pros: Managing tasks is such an easy-breezy process with this tool. Its shared calendar feature is great for planning and allocating tasks, monitoring task progress, and meeting deadlines. Teams don’t have to wander here and there or open multiple tabs to manage tasks. Everything can be done on a single dashboard - that’s the best part of this tool.

Cons: To be honest, there is nothing to be disliked about the tool. I like the way this tool functions, the features it has, and the big difference it has brought in how we manage tasks now.

"Great resource with fabulous support"

Overall: I've been using Project Bubble for over two years. There are very few project apps, websites, or programs that have met my needs so well for such a long period. Support is fantastic, updates are valuable and don't disrupt my workflow, and the people are just really nice to work with. Couldn't ask for a better project management tool.

"Great App! Perfect for Small Companies"

Overall: We've been with PB for a long time and have always been more than pleased with the app as well as their customer service. We searched for months to find an online project and time tracking site that had all the features we needed. There's a lot of competition out there but PB ended up at the front of the pack. Highly recommend!

"Simple project management platform"

Overall: I am thrilled to discover workflow templates with this tool! I can choose a template, tweak workflows, and get started with project execution within minutes. The tool even lets me save these workflows as templates for future similar projects.

Pros: What struck me was how simple it was to use the tool. My teams found it easy to navigate and quickly adjusted to using the tool to manage their daily workflows.

Cons: The tool’s automation capabilities need some work. Currently, there are very limited options for task automation.

"Marvelous PM application for freelancers "

Overall: It’s been over 4 months since I started working remotely, thanks to the COVID-19 outbreak. And I must say ProProfs Project can make the life of remote teams easier. I’ve noticed that this tool helps in task management, collaboration, file sharing, and communication. It has met my needs, so I am happy with this tool. My reasons for choosing ProProfs Project are, ‘Simple interface,’ ‘Powerful features,’ ‘Mobile apps,’ ‘24/7 customer support,’ and ‘Economical pricing’.

Pros: This tool is simple to use and comes with a plethora of features. Customer support is available round-the-clock on channels like telephone, email, live chat, etc. Mobile apps are also user friendly and make it easier to keep track of projects.

Cons: I’ve faced lagging issues at times, so that could be improved.

"Effortless Client Billing"

Overall: I didn’t have to struggle at all with this tool. It made project management, collaboration, and most importantly, client billing so seamless and fuss-free. I would strongly recommend this tool to all those who are looking for an all-in-one project management solution.

Pros: It has got all the regular features of a project management tool, but what really piqued my interest was its client billing feature. It has an automated invoicing system that makes client billing a hassle-free process. The best part is that these bills can be customized, so you can give them a look and feel you want.

Cons: It doesn’t have the Kanban feature. This is the only feature the tool lacks. But otherwise, if you consider other aspects - the tool is great.

"I think you guys are doing really well on updating the system "

Overall: we are using your system for our company individual projects to make sure all the projects are on track. I like the part that I can check everybody's process, how much the projects are done using % system also. since we started to use this system, our project due date has been very promised and our operation has been very smooth with our less troubles. however, we have not used task, calendar system so far since we are not sure how to use them effectively. Thank you very much for keeping update your system.

"Project Bubble is very user friendly and has been effective as a management tool for our projects."

Overall: I love the archive projects option, and that files of important documents that are relevant to a project can be easily added. I am definitely a fan of the color code option which is very helpful as a quick reference guide and review of the project's status update.

"Projects Done Right!"

Overall: Prior to employing the use of Project Bubble to track all of my website projects, I reviewed, download and tested close to a dozen other comparable project management tools. Although my heart was set on a scrum-like tool, Project Bubble was the clear winner due to its functionality and value. Furthermore, it was simple enough for my clients to access and keep track of their status, without having to explain or train them in the process of an Agile-based process, which most are not familiar with. And because most of my projects were extremely short, Project Bubble offered the best user experience of all other tools I tried. Project Bubble is simple, while packing a great amount of functionality and value. It is a very powerful collaborative tool as well. Everything from tracking high level features and functions in my projects to tasking, sub-tasks, comments and file attachments... Project Bubble has it all. While many are now starting to actively seek applications designed around Agile methodologies like the popular Scrum and Kanban processes, I still recommend Project Bubble, despite its lack of Agile support. As a certified Scrum Master and Scrum Product Owner, as well as an avid Scrum enthusiast, I am still able to actively fulfill the delivery of projects using Project Bubble. I believe it is one application worth looking into as an affordable, highly functional, project management tool.

Pros: Project Bubble is very intuitive and simple to use. It provides an exceptional collaboration platform for communicating with clients. Provides project status at a glance. Its reminder features are great for keeping projects on track.

Cons: Prior to this review I had but one con. But since the introduction of their accompanying mobile app, which I had so desired for a while, I do not have a single con I can report about the application.

"A flexible and scalable tool"

Overall: The tool is not only easy-to-use but scalable too. It lets me manage multiple projects on a single dashboard. I can oversee the real-time project progress and keep my projects on schedule without any hassle. Moreover, its insightful reports help me make informed decisions to accomplish project goals within the defined timeline and budget.

Pros: The tool offers a simple and intuitive platform that helps me drag and drop tasks with ease. This way, I can move tasks and prioritize them within seconds.

Cons: I have been using this tool for the last 9-10 months. It has helped me systematically move my projects forward in more ways than one. So, no complaints yet!

"Love everything about it"

Overall: I'm a Graphic Designer and I went online and searched through dozens of project management softwares (not an exaggeration!) I was looking for certain key features: A project management software that had client access, ability to comment, invoicing and tracking expenses. On top of that, the software had to be easy to use and a nice interface - because, hey, I'm a designer and I like things looking pretty! This one really stood out to me, so I created a trial. I had questions for the product team as well and they got back to me within the day, most times within the hour! I kid you not, within the first few days my clients were telling me how awesome this system was. Mind you, we were doing all our communications by email before, so this was a huge step up. The features that I love about this project is: - EASY TO USE - Easy to use and nice interface - MY LOGO - I can customize the system with my own logo - SHARING IMAGES - I can upload images and mockups and my clients can upload any images they would like to share as well - COMMENTING - Ability to have conversations/comments back and forth to each other and get notifications by email, when they have posted on a project - PROGRESS PERCENTAGE - Anywhere from 1 - 100%, I can specify how far we are along in the project by setting a percentage to each project - PROJECT STATUS - By specifying each project with a colour of green, yellow or red, I can easily indicate which ones I am waiting back on from the client and which ones I need to work on There are more features I can't all list here without writing a story. Really impressed and I plan on sticking with Project Bubble for a long time to come.
