Our team did an amazing job last month - they shipped quite a number of product updates, including: * a brand new Capacity and Utilization Report - it's going to help you plan capacity based on actual team availability (all things considered - time off, tracked against estimated time, weekends, meetings..) AND you'll also get to keep an eye on your team utilization rate - to make sure no one's over or under capacity * Add-Ons - a revamped section you can now access by clicking on your profile photo; it looks neater * API token management - so you can generate API tokens more quickly - it literally takes seconds * template subscribers - great if you have recurring projects and want to spare yourself from having to always add the same people over and over again - with this, they'll be automatically subscribed to tasks, notes, and discussions * multi-session Stopwatch - tracking time on a multi-day task, but preferring submitting time entries every day? No worries, you can now submit a time record, and keep the stopwatch active for whenever you need it next - no need to set it up for the same task(s) every day * project-wide notifications - if you want to keep an eye on everything that's happening inside a project, just check the Subscribe to Everything box (click on the three dots in a project's upper menu bar) - and enjoy the many notifications you'll receive🫠 ~ Which one's your fave? 🎉

Invoicing is one of the things you won't find in every other project management tool. But we help our users get paid for all the work they do. And we care to make this easy for their clients, too. That's why we upgraded the payment interface - now faster and more intuitive, it's ready for you to receive payments and improve client satisfaction. Your clients can pay you securely using a payment card or PayPal, no matter where they are in the world. You'll also get better insight into your financial health as we added tax filters to the Invoices report, so you can break down and understand costs before taxes, no matter how many different rates you use. And make sure to check the Payments report regularly, for some useful data, like seasonality, top-paying clients, and more.

Chat and email threads are too noisy for important project information like deadlines. Many project managers struggle to keep project schedules on track when dates live inside conversations: it’s easy to miss or overlook things. And while communication tools are great for collaboration, they're not built to manage timelines. You need a dedicated space where key tasks and deadlines stay visible at all times, so you always know where a project stands. That’s why teams using ActiveCollab love the Timeline view (aka the Gantt chart). It gives them a clear overview of all tasks and dates in one place, making it easy to track progress and adjust schedules with simple drag-and-drop. Staying on top of deadlines can be challenging. But when you can see your entire project plan at a glance, handling scope changes, overdue tasks, or unexpected time off becomes much more manageable. And how do you keep your project schedules from slipping through the cracks?

Just 15 untracked minutes per day adds up to about 65 hours of unbilled time per year. Say you charge $150/h for your services, that would translate into a $9,750 revenue loss. Even if you use a project-based pricing model, knowing how much time you spend working for a client can help you adjust your rates and stay profitable. We outlined 8 steps to help you set up a sustainable time tracking system. Ofc, ActiveCollab helps you make every billable hour count: 💫 track time spent on tasks and projects and compare hours against estimates 💫 add and edit time records retrospectively to make sure no entry is left out 💫 build custom time reports to draw insights and better organize and charge for work + more.

We wish you a productive 2026, full of successful projects, team wins, and clients who are a pleasure to work with🥳 Take care, and enjoy it all as much as possible💝

Our team has worked hard this month to deliver some great updates: 💫 Time Estimate Splitting: One of the most requested features is here to help you better manage time and organize tasks. Split time estimates into chunks, edit them as you wish, and we'll update the rest. 💫 Project Templates: Since 50% of projects created in ActiveCollab are made from a template, we improved the look and feel of project templates, and added time variables and subtask due dates. 💫 Invoices Report: You can now customize invoice reports for more specific insights. Save the filters you often use as presets to build reports faster. 💫 ActiveCollab Self-Hosted 8: We'll be rolling out updates in batches, starting today. The official release is scheduled for February 3, 2026, and we couldn't be more excited! Check out the video for a walkthrough or head over to our blog to learn more: https://lnkd.in/dtRNyYwx
