Even though we chose Basecamp at 48Web, I wanted to share with you another very promising project management solution in DeskAway. DeskAway is a hosted project management solution for teams to collaborate on projects and/or activities. I found it to be perfect for freelancers looking for a simple, affordable solution with time tracking baked in. So if you are ready – it takes about 30 seconds to jump in and setup an account. Get more details on DeskAway here.
Features:
- All paid plans have unlimited users
- File Sharing
- Document Creation and Sharing
- Time Tracking on all plans
- Branding on paid plans
- Full export and backup
DeskAway has a lot of great features at an affordable rate. I’d definitely check out their free plan if you are in the market for a project management solution. Their free plan offers far more features for free than comparable plans. If you are a freelancer who needs to manage a few projects with clients and track time, their free plan is perfect.

Hey Andy, thanks for taking in my feedback! I have already written a little about how we use Deskaway here – http://getanewbrowser.com/2008/11/5-project-management-solutions/
Everyday im trying to make it more useful. For example yesterday i used the Calender to create team birthday reminders. We just started an internal research project where in a task is sent to each member everyday. I also think project management is useful because due to DeskAway\\\’s overdue projects etc. i am also making sure that i now tie up projects that are sometimes months old.
Im keenly waiting on them to integrate file uploads marked to tasks – so i can upload a specific file and link it to a specific task so things become even more systematic. I just requested that feature yesterday and got an email saying that they too felt it was necessary and are on it. It should be up soon. Thats another thing that im now liking about them. Response rates are great!
We are using DeskAway from past few months & have found that every month they come up with great features added to the tool. We are very happy with this & try to make the optimum use of all the features. It is very simple & easy to use & above all it is quiet affordable than other tools in the market.
Thanks
