Tools for tracking tasks across multiple clients

The problem, in plain words: I keep missing project deadlines because my team can't effectively track tasks across multiple clients.

Asana: Work Management fits best, with 6 more that fit too.

You need a team-facing system that tracks tasks across multiple clients with clear ownership, deadlines, and visibility so projects meet their deadlines.

Updated July 2026.

What fits

Asana's core purpose is organizing team projects and individual tasks with ownership, due dates, shared project views, and reporting—exactly what a project manager needs to track work across multiple clients and keep deadlines visible.

Best for: Teams and project managers at agencies or multi-client teams who need structured projects, assignments, and deadline tracking.

TimeHerostrong · 90

TimeHero's primary purpose is AI-powered scheduling and workload visibility: it automatically plans tasks around team availability, flags scheduling risk, and provides capacity and workload views that help teams meet deadlines across client projects.

Best for: Teams that want automated scheduling, capacity forecasting, and risk detection to prevent deadline slips across multiple client projects.

Task Track logo
Task Trackstrong · 86

Task Track is built to replace spreadsheets with centralized workflow automation and workload visibility for deadline-driven operations, making it suitable for teams needing client-separated workflows, ownership, and deadline tracking.

Best for: Operations teams and project managers who run recurring, deadline-driven work and need AI-powered workload visibility across clients.

Caveat: An account is required before you can use it.

Gryphinstrong · 81

Gryphin's primary focus is visual project management with multiple views (Kanban, Calendar, Gantt) plus AI task breakdown and workload collaboration, which supports tracking tasks, ownership, and deadlines across client projects.

Best for: Teams that prefer rich visual views and real-time collaboration to manage multi-client work and spot scheduling conflicts.

Trellostrong · 80

Trello's boards, lists, and cards are designed to organize tasks per project or client with assigned members, due dates, and integrations—helpful for keeping client-specific work visible and making ownership explicit.

Best for: Small to medium teams that want a simple, flexible board-based way to track client work, owners, and deadlines.

Basecamp's core purpose is centralizing project work, client collaboration, and team communication so tasks, ownership, and deadlines for multiple clients live in one place rather than scattered across tools.

Best for: Teams and agencies that want a calm, centralized place for client projects, with clear task ownership and shared status updates.

Partly fits

Harvestpartial · 58

Harvest's main focus is time tracking, invoicing, and project financials rather than centralized task ownership and client-structured task boards.

Won’t cover: Primarily a time and billing platform, so it won't by itself create shared task boards with per-task owners and cross-client workload views.

Hubstaffpartial · 56

Hubstaff excels at time tracking, productivity metrics, and payroll for distributed teams rather than acting as a central task assignment and multi-client project board.

Won’t cover: Focused on time capture and workforce analytics, so it does not primarily provide the shared task board and client-separated task views you asked for.

Clockifypartial · 52

Clockify is built to track hours and generate timesheets across projects, which helps budgeting and billing but isn't centered on assigning and visualizing task ownership and deadlines across multiple clients.

Won’t cover: A time-tracking first tool, so it won't by itself provide the consolidated task boards and ownership controls across clients you described.

HoneyBookpartial · 50

HoneyBook is a client relationship and operations platform for small businesses that centralizes client workflows, but its primary audience is small service businesses rather than general agency multi-client task management.

Won’t cover: Positioned for small-business client management and proposals, so it may not provide the multi-client project views and team-wide reporting an agency-style PM needs.
