Full platform, not just documents
Aconex is primarily document management and correspondence. TaskRox has 49 platform features, including 32 project modules, covering Gantt, QA, HSE, site diary, budget, Kanban and more.
Browser-based platform
TaskRox runs in a web browser, and project teams use the same interface for documents, RFIs, scheduling, QA and HSE.
Free viewer seats
Owner, Admin and Member seats are billable. Viewer-tier members are free, and external contacts without a TaskRox login are not counted as seats.
Choose Aconex if
You work on very large projects with many participating organisations, your client requires Aconex for document control, or your organisation already uses Oracle construction products.
Choose TaskRox if
You are a mid-sized contractor that needs scheduling, QA, HSE and site records alongside document control, with published per-user pricing and self-serve sign-up.
Switching path
Documents are uploaded to the TaskRox document register; TaskRox does not import Aconex metadata or correspondence history. TaskRox imports schedules from Microsoft Project (.mpp, .mpt, .mpx, .xml), Primavera P6 (.xer), Excel (.xlsx, .xls) and CSV files, with column mapping for spreadsheets. Enterprise plans include onboarding and migration support.
