History
For our businesses we needed to track time for both our employees and our clients, since we needed a reliable way to track time to pay our employees and invoice our clients.
Despite trying many products, we could not find anything that did what we needed: accountability for every 15 minutes of the day. Most solutions out there, offer timers or tools to record the time, but miss the big picture: a visual overview, which is the easiest way to spot time that is not accounted for.
On top of that, many tools record time for billing, but the tracked time can also be used for paying your staff or freelancers on an hourly basis.
First we used Microsoft Excel to record time for paying our staff, then Google Apps for easier collaboration. For billing we saved our time in Basecamp Classic, but doing billing was still a painful process, and we didn’t know how accurate that timing was. It would never add up to 8 working hours. We tried all possible tools out there, without success.
In 2011 we built Timesheetr: an online visual time tracking application built from the ground up and regularly improved ever since based on our own vision for the product and valuable feedback from customers around the world.
Since then, billing clients and paying staff are both easy processes for small and big organizations from around the world who save themselves a ton of time every single week, while increasing the number of billable hours.
