Just go through Community Support and Feature Requests forums to see what people miss the most. Here are some popular requests:

- ability to drag and drop tasks
- reply to email notification automatically submits comment
- interface for assigning and subscribing people needs to be more intuitive and smarter
- gantt charts...

There are also some known bugs that we'll be addressing in v1.1.3. Still, even with missing features and some known bugs I would not say that activeCollab sucks. It just doesn't work for everyone and some things can be improved (that's what new versions are for).

There are features whose implementation is weaker than I'd like, and there are lacking features which create some vacuum, but no, all in all, I would not declare that aC sucks.

Now as for the questioner...

What I really don't like about activeCollab
-------------------------------------------------------
The complainers who don't life a finger to contribute to the project or community. Instead they troll and criticize aC.


What I enjoy about activeCollab that keeps me interested and active
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I've been using activeCollab since 2006. I paid for 1.0 last fall and don't regret it. The best thing is the developer. Ilija has a strong vision where he's taking aC. I find his communication on the board, in support tickets and through the website overall to be friendly, organized, patience, honest, direct an best of all...he has a sense of humor.

Open source and shared code is really about the community and I find the aC crowd (minus the whiners) to be highly technical and "contributive" in nature.
