Comparison
Axzura vs Productive for agencies
Productive is agency management software built around the numbers: budgets, time tracking, resource planning and profitability per project. Axzura is built around the client relationship: a board per client with a portal and a daily report, client messages turned into tasks, invoices that send themselves and agreements signed online — with an AI assistant that has read all of it. Both are made for agencies; they put the centre of gravity in different places.
What it costs
The clearest difference, and the one that compounds: Productive charges for each person, Axzura charges for the workspace.
| Team size | Productive | Axzura |
|---|---|---|
| 3 people | $75 | $29Pro |
| 10 people | $250 | $29Pro |
| 25 people | $625 | $69Business |
| 50 people | $1,250 | Talk to us |
Monthly, in US dollars. Productive on its Professional, billed annually, multiplied by team size (with its 3-seat minimum); Axzura is per workspace, so the number does not move. Published list prices, checked 2026-10-15 — verify before relying on them, since both move.
Worth knowing about Productive’s pricing
- Invoicing is on Professional and above; the $10 Essential plan doesn't include it
- $29 per user on monthly billing, with a 3-seat minimum
- The Ultimate plan, with scenario planning and forecasting, is priced on request
Where Axzura is different
Clients see the work, without asking
Every client gets a private board link and an automatic daily report — a branded PDF of what was finished, what moved and what's waiting on them. In Productive, clients can be given access to budgets; Axzura sends them the day's progress.
Client messages become tasks
Paste a client's WhatsApp or Slack chat and Axzura picks out the requests and adds them to that client's board, skipping the greetings and the work already done.
Agreements signed in the same place
NDAs and contracts are written from templates and signed online with a signing certificate, next to the client's board and invoices.
Per workspace, not per user
A ten-person agency pays $29 a month on Axzura Pro, AI included. On Productive's Professional plan the same team is $250 a month, billed annually.
Where Productive is better
Written plainly, because you will find out anyway and it is better you find out now.
- Much deeper agency finance: budgets, profitability per project and revenue forecasting
- Built-in time tracking and resource planning across the team
- A mature product with many agency customers and integrations
Choose Productive if
