Teamwork

Most project management tools are built for internal teams. Teamwork is built for teams whose work is the product — agencies, studios, and freelancers who bill clients by the hour and need to prove where that time went. That single focus shapes everything about it, from time tracking to the way clients see a project.

What is Teamwork?

Teamwork is a project management platform aimed at client-services businesses, with built-in time tracking, budgeting, and client-facing views that general-purpose project management tools often lack. Projects are organized around clients, hours are logged against tasks and budgets, and clients can be given a view of progress without seeing the internal workings.

Resource scheduling shows who is free and who is overloaded, templates cover common agency workflows, and invoicing integrations connect tracked time to billing. It is the kind of tool that makes sense the moment a team starts juggling five clients at once.

Editorial assessment: research-based assessment of publicly documented features and pricing. This is not a claim of independent hands-on testing.

Key features

• Time tracking & budgeting: hours logged against tasks and project budgets, built in rather than bolted on
• Client-facing project views: share progress with clients without exposing internal detail
• Resource scheduling: see team capacity and plan workloads across projects
• Templates for common agency workflows: repeatable project structures for client work
• Invoicing integration: tracked billable time connects to billing

Pricing — read this before you buy

Starting price: $13.99/user/mo (Deliver plan, billed annually). The lineup is a free plan for up to 5 users, Deliver at around $14 per user per month, and Grow at around $26 per user per month, billed annually. A 30-day free trial is available.

Prices change, so check the official pricing page before buying — and confirm whether the per-user price you see assumes annual billing, since monthly billing costs more.

What we like

• Purpose-built for agency/client-services workflows
• Time tracking and budgeting built in, not bolted on
• Client-facing project views available
• Good fit for a marketing or dev agency audience

Where it falls short

• Less well-known than Monday.com, ClickUp, or Asana, with a smaller ecosystem
• Overkill for purely internal, non-client work

The smaller ecosystem is the honest trade-off. Teamwork has fewer third-party integrations and fewer community templates than the big three, and a team that never bills clients will pay for agency features it never opens. But for the audience it is built for, that focus is the point — general tools make agencies build billing workflows out of workarounds, while Teamwork ships them as defaults.

Who should use Teamwork?

Agencies and freelancers managing client projects, and teams that need to track billable hours against budgets. If your week is split across clients and your invoices depend on accurate time logs, Teamwork is built for exactly that week.

Skip it if: your team has no client-billing component. An internal product team will get more from a general tool like ClickUp — which is being posted on SaaSNivo in the same run — at a lower price.

Teamwork vs the alternatives

Against ClickUp, Teamwork is narrower but deeper on client work — ClickUp covers more ground for less money, but it has no native client billing view, so agencies end up building one. Against Monday.com, Teamwork is less visual and less flexible, but its time tracking and budgets are part of the product rather than add-ons. The choice comes down to what you sell: if you sell hours, Teamwork's billing features are worth the premium.

Our verdict

Worth featuring specifically for agency-owner readers — a more targeted comparison than the generic best-project-management-tools listicles most sites publish. If client work is your business, start with the free plan for up to 5 users and test it on a live client project before paying.
