Harvest: Track Time & Invoice

I am a non-profit and self-employed professional who has tested out a wide variety of tracking apps and was THRILLED with Harvest! Robust, easy to use, affordable.

As a contractor the last thing I want to do is go to some website and waste time logging in. With Harvest, it only takes seconds to log time. Creating and sending invoices is also quick and easy. Clients paying the invoice is simple and get direct deposited quickly.

Desktop + Browser: do everything you need them to simply and elegantly. Totally recommend. Mobile: drives me bananas. Time zones continually get confused, over-calculate, send notifications I forgot a timer when I’m 30 min in but send nothing when it’s legitimately been 6 hours. Still love the platform overall, just wish the mobile app while traveling wasn’t a mess.

A while back they redid the app and made it cache and display old timers. I’m often staring and stopping timers from multiple clients. Sometimes a timer shows an old value before the new one is fetched - then if you start the timer you loose data. Should either be an error or disallowed until sync. This app is one of the use cases for investing in good sync tech and they still haven’t.

I own a company that invoices for hours at contracted rates at a project due on each DoS. Upon downloading this app looked promising. I can track hours easily and view employees billable hours, but I can’t add rate for hours on each project. Okay, maybe I can add on invoicing steps. No way to invoice. Or if there is it’s hidden. Since my business requires mobile access and quick invoicing this app is not appropriate for my business needs.

We have been using this SASS for a very long time. It just keeps getting better and better.

Where’s the GET button?

Simple to use, reliable, and affordable. I used Harvest over 10 years ago for my web agency and glad to see it’s still around

Simple to use yet full featured. We use Harvest as an integral part of our real estate brokerage’s training, development and compensation plan for new agents. The benefits are enormous not only for our team’s compensation plan but also as a tool for understanding efficiency with our time and seeing the types of deals/clients who are not profitable

There really isn’t another product for time tracking and invoicing in Harvest’s league. I have spent hundreds of hours using various apps for this purpose and nothing else respects your time and gets out of your way like Harvest. It has all the features you need for a small to medium sized business and none of the garbage.
