ActiveCollab vs. Acuity Scheduling

ActiveCollab is the work management platform for agencies and service businesses — from the first task to the paid invoice, in one place. Plan projects in List, Kanban or Gantt view, track time on every task with a built-in stopwatch, manage workload and capacity, and turn tracked time into estimates, invoices and profitability reports. Budgets, expenses, billable rates and online payments (Stripe, PayPal) are built in — no bolt-ons.

Acuity Scheduling is an online appointment scheduling platform from Squarespace, Inc., the design-driven software company headquartered in New York City. Founded in 2006 and acquired by Squarespace in 2019, Acuity powers client booking for solo professionals, teams, and service-based businesses, and is used by customers worldwide. It can be used on its own or integrated directly with a Squarespace website. Acuity gives businesses a customizable, shareable booking page where clients view real-time availability and schedule appointments themselves.
