Harvest

It is very simple to use and configure. Make it easy to track time from anywhere with a mobile or desktop device. It allows you to customize the reminders to be more precise and efficient. It integrates seamlessly with Asana and Slack. It has a very complete help center that helps to quickly start using the platform.

Actually, so far I have nothing negative to mention, this is a very complete tool for time management.

So overall I'm not a fan. That said, documenting expenses is the best I've ever seen in Harvest. It's really well done and simple. Nice and clean, get your photos, get your monies and go. Big fan.

That is where my love affair ends with this app.

From an administrative point, maybe there are incredible advantages over other offerings. The world may have never experienced such a revolutionary piece of software and I, in turn, am a simpleton; stuck in a world of misunderstanding.

If you write a app which tracks hourly time and tries to put it into buckets for easy expensing, the time-tracking app should be simple for the multitude of non-admin users. Simply put, it's cumbersome and annoying.... and I say that because someone is going to take stronger language less seriously.

Forget the fact that you have to enter in time _Daily_. When I say daily, I don't mean that you click on the day, you do the thing and save. I mean that it shows you one day per page at a time. No calendar to quickly go through a week, no monthly review where you can quickly fill in gaps. One page == one day. You can bring stuff over from the last-entered day, but the hours aren't filled in... just the buckets. This leads to an incredibly slow, painful, and frankly uninteresting experience. For a bunch of users who want to do their job instead of fiddling around with tracking how long they've done their job, asking them to use Harvest is basically asking them to make none of their time billable unless threatened with homelessness. It's incredibly painful to use.

To be sure, I'm not a fan of time-tracking apps anyway. I akin them to asking your employees to lie to you and giving them a form in which to do it... but Harvest makes the fun of lying to your employer the low-light of your day. It's not fair.

I have used Harvest since I joined the company where I work, is has been almost three years and I think is one of those tools that make everything easier. I personally have tried others but I always like that using harvest is very easy and I can connect with other apps like Jira so time tracking becomes faster. Lately I noticed they had an interface redesign and I believe it is just great, made everything even better.

I find a little difficult to use on mobile, I am much more used to using on a desktop device. But I do not really have any features that I dislike about harvest, it has helped me a lot and it is very useful.
