Time Tracking + Invoicing + Accounting
Shouldn't Mean Three Tools
If your team logs hours in one tool, exports them into another to invoice, then retypes everything into accounting – you're paying for that gap in revenue leakage and admin time.
| | | |
| Time & Expense Capture | Integrated time, expense, mileage, and receipt capture with project-level visibility. | Track hours; expenses live in a separate tool. |
| Billable Hours | Built-in approvals, rate cards, and WIP control before time hits an invoice. | Logs hours, but billing logic and approvals happen elsewhere. |
| Invoicing | Auto-generate invoices from approved time and expenses, with online payment options. | Export to a billing tool, then reformat manually. |
| Project Accounting | Real-time budget vs. actual, margin, and WIP by project, phase, or client. | Reports stop at hours and dollars billed. |
| Accounting Sync | Two-way sync with QuickBooks Desktop, Online, Sage Intacct, and Xero. | One-way exports or no integration. |
