Pros

“Its user-friendly interface makes tasks like invoicing, expense tracking, and payroll straightforward, even for those without a strong accounting background.”

Marilyn D.

Agent

“If a company already uses QuickBooks products, QuickBooks Time is generally considered a strong time-tracking and workforce-management solution for its payroll integration, mobile capabilities, and job-cost tracking.”

Mohammed A.

Operation Manager

“I no longer have to chase down my employees to get their hours, and I can invoice my clients to the exact cent based on real data, which strengthens both my profitability and my credibility.”

Patrick K.

Vice President at JPK and Associates, Inc.

Pros

“Timely's automated time tracking has greatly benefited the management of research projects, allowing me to precisely track time spent on various grants without the hassle of manual entry.”

Alison M.

Data Analyst

“It also includes budget tracking and timesheets.”

Ritu G.

Scientist

“Functional and remembered my data so I could quickly and easily re-book appointments”

Ashley C.

Commercial Advisor

Cons

“One of the issues that we do come across is that it tends to glitch when we are out in the field and then my workers have to completely close the app and restart it.”

samantha h.

Administartive assistant

“A smaller issue on top of that: Categorization still needs a human pass; the suggested category is right often enough to make the misses annoying.”

christopher f.

Software Systems Consultant

“I dont like the amount of work it takes to set up a time kiosk for my employees to use. If the computer resets, or updates, or the browser gets shut the kiosk terminates itself, and I have to go reset and reapprove the device to work as a kiosk.”

Ryan M.

Operations Manager

Cons

“The Timely app has some bugs which should be fixed in next updates.”

Ritu G.

Scientist

“Not offering clients slots that are available, booking clients in slots that aren’t supposed to be available and open times in the diary are not showing to customers.”

Rebecca G.

Massage therapist

“The software is relatively expensive compared to some other time-tracking and scheduling tools on the market. While Timely provides some basic reporting features, it doesn't offer as many advanced reporting options as some other tools.”

Priyanshu J.

Manager
