1. 5/5No upgrades

   For about 20 years I’ve been using a custom built time management software. I decided to convert over to Harvest and it’s been quite an effort to do so. I’ve sent several suggestions in about the things they could do to make it easier but I always get the feedback that that particular option or enhancement is not in consideration. It amazes me that companies are so quick to just rule out any type of feedback especially from someone as myself who has developed and use these types of software’s for years. I know personally the things that make using it easier but they simply will not consider any enhancements. The other thing this very frustrating is they provide new phone support. There are substantial bugs in the product but you can actually talk to anyone or do a screen share so they can see it and they’re not the least bit concerned about knowing it or documented it. The CEO was missing in action. He doesn’t care about his product. I get that it’s an inexpensive way of tracking time but you would think they would show more pride in their work. I spent six months converting 18 years worth of data so I’m kind of stuck with it. There are features that I like about it so I didn’t want to say that. And I also know you get what you pay for. But it amazes me that there are absolutely no interest by them to enhance their product.

2. 5/5Love this tool

   I’ve been using Harvest now for four years of the six years my business has been open. I think it is a fabulous tool. I truly believe the people who developed the software really did try to think of everything. Timekeeping is extremely easy, running reports for invoices is a breeze, running monthly, quarterly, yearly and custom reports for a range of project tracking and accounting is also a breeze. The expense feature took me a little time to figure out, but once I did, it’s extremely easy to use. The retainer feature is my only complaint, but the tool does provide a work around if needed. I’ve also had to reach out to Harvest a couple of times to figure something out, but they have been very quickly responsive, informative and very courteous. I really can’t say enough good things about Harvest. When we hire people, we give them a 30-minute training on the tool and our time- and expense-keeping policies. Within 15 minutes they have it down. It also has a lot of customizable options, as well. You really can make this tool fit your specific business. I tremendously recommend it.

3. 5/5This is a wonderful too & very good app

   Harvest is the best. The desktop tool is solidly built, feature packed, and has personality without being cutesy with fun quotes about time built into the interface. The reporting is amazing and so easy to use. Project setup allows for a huge variety of customizations and option settings. The app works seamlessly with the online tool - so much so that I can start a timer for a call while I'm at my desk, get in my car and finish the call, then click the stop button whenever the call is over. Reporting functions are lacking in the app, but as I don't have to run reports on mobile, this isn't a big deal. As a freelance consultant with multiple clients, and working Mom, I couldn't be nearly as professional or organized with out this tool. I've also used the tool in a team setting - where clear visibility into hours spent by person, task, and client are extremely helpful to staying within time limits and getting work done. I can't tell you how the help desk support is, because I've never once had to call them. The tool works all the time and is simple to figure out. HIGHLY recommend you check it out. It's definitely worth the small price tag for the functionality and performance.

4. 4/5Just lost a star… LOVE LOVE LOVE HARVEST

   See below for all I love. Lost a star for a) no Apple Watch interface b) downgrade of The phone timer interface. The rest below is still true. Really has made it possible for me to be self employed. I have ADD and this is the 1st time tracker I could cope with and INVOICING IS NOW (almost) A DREAM (used to be my worst nightmare - who did I work for? When? How long? What?) Also ability to defying project tasks and clock time to those tasks means I can see how much time has gone to each part of a project and impress the client... Eg: I can create 3 tasks and budget time to them (implement 6hours, train 2h , support 4h), then I can track whether I'm on budget or in danger of going over, or tell client we are under budget or need more time allocated. Makes me look in control of the project! (Instead of chaotic!) Sends professional automated payment reminders, allows client to pay electronically. Also can send professional project estimates (quotes) out when I bid. Client can accept electronically and bingo electronically signed agreement! Did I say I love it?

5. 4/5Game changer for my small business

   This app is great - has been a game changer for keeping track of my time in between projects for my small business. I’m a woodworker and balance several projects at once - I tried QuickBooks time for a while, it was okay but not well suited for a team of one or two people and lacked a bunch of critical features which this app provides. This app lets me change back and forth between project to project so I know exactly how my time is being allocated, and I can figure out how much of my budget is left for a given job. This is no deal breaker - but one feature that would be nice is to have the roll clock available when ur inputting your time, in case you forget to clock in for a certain job. But this is a super miner suggestion, and I’m sure I’ll just end up getting used to the way it is now. Second to that would just be to display the time of day that you clock in/out of a job. Helps provide some further insight end analytics.
