Task Session

It s very good to provide live web

The time tracking sitting next to invoices and the client portal is what stands out to me. Can tracked hours on a task be turned into an invoice line (and shown to the client in the portal), or do you create invoices separately? For agencies that bill by the hour, that link is usually where the most manual copy-pasting disappears.

The client portal looks like the most useful part for agencies, since clients seeing their own tasks saves a lot of status emails. Can you control visibility per task or file inside a shared project, so internal tasks and drafts stay hidden from the client? And what does the paid licence add over the AGPL edition on GitHub?

I like that there's a live demo and an AGPL edition on GitHub, so people can see how it works before paying. How do updates work for the self-hosted version: a one-click update from the admin panel, or do people pull new releases by hand?

I really like the fact that there’s a live demo available along with an AGPL edition on GitHub. It gives people a chance to explore the product, understand how it works, and even test it themselves before deciding whether to pay for the hosted or premium version. I think that kind of transparency is especially useful for developers and technical users. One thing I was wondering about is how updates are handled for the self-hosted version. Is there a simple one-click update option directly from the admin panel, or do users need to manually pull and install each new release from GitHub? It would be interesting to know how easy it is to keep a self-hosted installation up to date over time.

It s very good to provide live demo,

very cool and usefull

The flat licence with unlimited users is exactly the right pricing shape for agencies — per-seat SaaS gets painful when you add contractors per project. Two practical questions: for the white-label client portal, can each client get their own subdomain or custom domain, and does the AGPL edition include the invoicing/Stripe modules or are those commercial-only? Also curious how upgrades work for self-hosted instances — is there a one-click updater or is it a manual pull?

The stripe integration is interesting; its not commonly found with other PM tools. Also this is based on Google ecosystem which is familiar to a lot of freelancers.

Hi Fazier! We built Task Session because agencies we worked with were paying for a CRM, a project tool, an invoicing app and a chat app, and still copying data between them. Most of them also paid per user, so every new hire made the bill bigger. Task Session puts clients, projects, tasks, invoices and team chat in one app that you host on your own domain. It has one flat licence and unlimited users. There is also a free open-source edition on GitHub if you want to try it on your own server. You can try the live demo at demo.tasksession.com. We would love your feedback, especially on what your team still needs from a self-hosted CRM.

The flat licence with unlimited users is the right call for agencies — per-seat pricing quietly taxes team growth. One question on the client portal piece: can clients review and approve deliverables without creating an account, or do they log in? In practice the friction is always on the client side; a guest/magic-link view for approvals usually cuts the support back-and-forth a lot. Also good move shipping an AGPL edition — self-host buyers usually want to read the code before committing, so that builds trust.

A flat licence with unlimited users is a strong pitch for agencies whose headcount grows faster than their revenue. How do updates work on self-hosted installs: one click from the admin panel, or a manual pull and migration? That is usually where self-hosted tools lose me, so a clear upgrade path would be a big selling point.

A self-hosted CRM and project workspace that keeps clients, tasks, invoices, chat, and white-labeling under one unlimited-user licence lets agencies drop the usual per-seat SaaS stack. When you need a steadier line on model spend, PZERO is at pzero.studio.
