Koji softver web agencije koriste za vođenje projekata?
Most web agencies start on Trello or a spreadsheet, move to Monday, Teamwork, Scoro or Productive, and end up paying for three tools that do not talk to each other. The name matters less than whether the tool ties briefs to tracked hours and to profitability.
Кратак одговор
- Web agencies use either a generic project tool (Monday, Teamwork) or an agency platform (Productive, Scoro, 4webagency).
- A generic tool holds the tasks, but it will not show you the project margin.
- An agency platform ties briefs to tracked hours and to profitability.
- For a web agency, what matters is whether the tool tracks billable hours per deliverable, not only tasks.
- Choose by what you want to see at the end: progress, or profitability.
What the standards and the contract say
- Write the acceptance criteria for a web deliverable explicitly: Core Web Vitals (LCP, CLS, INP) and WCAG 2.2 level AA.
- Record client approval of a deliverable with a date and an author — that is the basis of any scope-creep conversation.
- Ownership of the deliverables transfers as the contract states, often only on full payment.
- Client files and data inside the tool fall under the GDPR (Regulation (EU) 2016/679), so access is granted by role.
Practical examples
- An eight-person agency on 3 separate tools pays 3 subscriptions and loses ~4 hours a month reconciling hours.
- A site quoted at 60 hours reaches 78 after three revision rounds — you only see the gap if the hours sit next to the brief.
What each one covers, in brief
| Software | Where it is strong | What is missing for a web agency |
|---|---|---|
| Teamwork | Tasks, timesheets and a large integration marketplace | No domain or hosting portfolio |
| Productive | Resource planning and forecasting | No domain and hosting management |
| Scoro | Quoting and multi-currency support | No domains module |
| Monday | Very flexible, huge integration marketplace | Does not compute project margin without add-ons |
| 4webagency | Projects, timesheets, profitability and domains in one account | No marketplace with thousands of integrations |
Common mistakes
- Picking the tool by its integration count rather than by the question you need answered.
- Keeping hours somewhere other than the projects, so margin gets computed two months after delivery.
- Moving the agency to a new tool without moving the retainers, then running two in parallel.
How 4webagency helps
- Projects with a job number and deliverables, in the same place as the tracked hours.
- Clients and monthly retainers sit next to the projects they belong to.
- Profitability per project, so margin shows up during the project, not after.
- Billable hours are logged against each project, so extra work shows up in the numbers.
