What Optivation is
Keeps a client's intake form, booked call, project notes, tracked hours and invoice on one record, using databases whose rows open as full pages, and lets clients view and comment on what you share without taking a seat. Built for freelancers and agencies of a few people. Every plan includes every module; plans differ in limits, seats and whether client-facing pages carry Optivation's name.
