What It Is

sharesuite is an all-in-one project management software provided by sharesuite GmbH in Hannover, Germany. The product is positioned not as a standalone task tool, but as a project operations platform covering everything “from initial contact to invoice.” The website states that it has served project management scenarios since 2009, with a particular mention of the engineering industry, while also emphasizing cross-industry applicability.

Core Capabilities

Its feature coverage is fairly comprehensive: projects can be created using templates, with support for Gantt charts, MS Project import, resource planning, scheduling, budgets, costs, reports, and controlling. On the task side, it offers Kanban, lists, subtasks, phase configuration, recurring tasks, and reminders. For time tracking, it supports activity records, timesheets, leave, and statistics. Document management supports in-project archiving, version management, audit-proof secure archiving, and external sharing. Emails can be archived manually or automatically based on rules, and tasks can be generated from emails. For collaboration, it provides chat, comments, attachments, email and push notifications, project logs, and full-text search. It also supports quotations, cost and revenue records, one-click invoice creation, as well as a workflow designer and custom input forms.

Pricing and Trial

Public pricing is subscription-based per user/month: Basis at €13.50, for up to 3 users; Business at €22.50, for up to 10 users; and Enterprise at €31.50, with unlimited users. All three tiers mention personalized configuration, Premium Support, and German servers. A 14-day free test account is available, and the trial ends automatically.

Pros and Cons

The advantages are that it is modular and configurable, bringing projects, tasks, time tracking, documents, emails, budgets, and invoices into one system to reduce information fragmentation. In terms of permissions, it supports access for clients, subcontractors, and partners, with fine-grained control. German servers, regular backups, security updates, and a multi-level security system also strengthen its credibility for businesses. The drawbacks are that the publicly available information does not clarify API, webhook, or developer ecosystem support; third-party integrations are not disclosed much beyond MS Project and email-related capabilities; and the functional differences between pricing plans, aside from user limits, are not very clear.

Who It’s For and Access from China

It is suitable for engineering companies, project-based service businesses, small and medium-sized enterprises, and teams that need external client collaboration and project cost control. Reliable information on access from mainland China was not found, so its accessibility is considered unknown.
