About
Optivation is one workspace for the five jobs agencies run every week: forms, databases, pages, time tracking and invoicing. The whole client lifecycle runs in one system on shared data, not across five separate tools.
A client intake form writes straight into your database as a record. Every record opens into a full page with notes, files, sub-tasks and a built-in timer. The hours you log there become the line items on an invoice, generated from that same record.
It's built for solo consultants and small studios billing hourly or on retainer. You can start on the free plan. Solo is $19 a month. Studio is $49 a month for up to 3 seats, then $19 for each extra seat. Paid plans come with a 30-day free trial.

About
Worksection is an all-in-one project management platform that replaces five separate tools — a task manager, planner, time tracker, work chat, and file storage — with one system on a single per-user price.
Built for teams of 5 to 50+ — agencies, IT, consulting, manufacturing, and construction — especially teams that bill clients by the hour. Manage tasks and subtasks, plan with Gantt charts, Kanban boards and a calendar, track time with hourly rates for client billing, discuss work inside each task, and keep files where they belong. Reports and dashboards turn project data into decisions.
Unlike tools that sell time tracking and client billing as paid add-ons, both are built in. Free for teams up to 5 users. Worksection has been doing this since 2008 — GDPR and ISO 27001 certified, available in 11 languages.
