I spent an hour or so poking at Astravue with a made up agency project. It is a project management tool aimed at service teams, with time tracking and billing baked in rather than bolted on. That part is clearly the point of the product and it mostly delivers. Signing in with Google was one click and it dropped me straight into an onboarding wizard: pick a username, name your org, invite people or skip, choose list or board as your default view. Nothing clever, but it exists and it points you somewhere, which already puts it ahead of a lot of tools I have tried. One small thing threw me. The left side looks like a five step wizard but it is really just one long scrolling form, and the password step quietly marked itself done without me typing anything because I came in through Google. Once inside I made a space, a project and a couple of tasks. Creating things is quick and the task panel is the strong part. You get a description field, subtasks that actually save, a checklist, attachments, dependencies, recurring, a time tracker and a progress slider, all in one clean side panel. Subtasks and dependencies being real and not just marketing was a nice surprise. List view grouped by status, kanban and a calendar are all there and switching between them is instant. What kept getting in the way was smaller stuff. An "Enable notifications" popup showed up in the bottom corner, I clicked "Not now", and then it came back on every single page I opened for the rest of the session. When I pasted a task URL straight into the address bar it bounced me through a full login redirect and left a long code and session_state string sitting in the URL afterwards, and I could see the same auth code baked into links in the sidebar, which does not look great. The dev console was also throwing a steady stream of failed requests, some of it third party analytics but also a couple of 500s and 400s from their own API. Nothing broke because of it, but it is the kind of thing that makes you wonder what else is loose. What I liked: - One click Google sign in into a real onboarding flow with sensible defaults - Task editor is genuinely good, subtasks, checklists, dependencies, recurring, progress, all in one place - Subtasks and dependencies are real features, not just words on the pricing page - Built in time tracking with manual entry, a live timer and a billable toggle, so the "every hour billable" pitch is actually backed by something - List, kanban and calendar views all work and switch instantly - Free tier is actually usable, three users and unlimited projects - Deep links to top level pages like the calendar load fine on their own What I didn't like: - The notification popup reappears after every navigation once you dismiss it with "Not now" - Opening an inner page directly triggers a visible re-login and dumps the OAuth code into the URL and into sidebar links - Console is full of failed network requests, including some from their own backend - The onboarding "steps" are really one scrolling page and the step markers are misleading - Minor nav inconsistency, a "Team view" item shows up in the sidebar on some pages and not others The core is more finished than a lot of early tools I have looked at. The task model is solid, time tracking is real, and the free tier means you can actually try it with a small team. The rough edges are all around the outside rather than in the middle, the notification nag, the messy auth redirects, the noisy console. Clean those up and I would be fairly comfortable recommending it. For now, about 3.5 out of 5. Solid bones, needs a polish pass.
