I Tried 67 Tools to Improve My Agency, These Are The Best

Tool fatigue is real. Every week there's a new SaaS product promising to revolutionize your agency's workflow, and most of them don't deliver. Dylan Hey took an exhaustive approach: he actually tested 67 different tools across every function of his agency, from project management and client communication to billing, reporting, and internal automation. This video is the highlight reel—the tools that survived real-world use and genuinely improved his margins, delivery speed, and team happiness. The video is organized by function, so you can jump to the stack that matters most to your bottleneck. Dylan shares not just which tools won, but why the runners-up lost, what he measures to evaluate a tool's ROI, and how he thinks about stack consolidation vs. best-of-breed. For agency founders and operations leads drowning in SaaS subscriptions, this is a practical filter that saves months of trial and error.
