Ask What do you do when a client refuses to use your preferred project management system?

[Edward22]

Collaborating with clients often requires agreement on which tools will be used to track progress and share files during the project. You may have a system that keeps your freelance business running smoothly, but a client might insist on using their own method instead. This can force you to learn new software or manage tasks in a way that feels inefficient for your personal workflow. Adapting to their system takes time and can disrupt the way you handle other active projects. How do you find a compromise when a client is unwilling to adopt your established method of working?
