    Pros
    Very easy to use and great system for small teams. Updating projects is easy and I love how customizable this tool is for your team.
    It's reasonably priced, easy to use and improves our billing, which helps not only our company, but gives our clients the assurance that we are billing appropriately and accurately.
    I'm a designer, so I really appreciate the time and effort they have gone to in order to make accounting and billing intuitive and fun to use yes it's actually fun to use Harvest.
    Cons
    As far as I'm concerned the current schedule process in time fox is a waste of time. I also dislike that when I change tabs in one job I have to refind it again when the page changes.
    The user navigation is confusing, it lacks reporting features available in cheaper software alternatives. There is no time tracking app for the desktop and the mobile apps are seriously out of date.
    Because this is web based it sometimes locks up or we can't access it if our internet is out. A very minor problem that rarely happens.

    My business made more money by using FunctionFox!

    Reviewed 7 years ago

    I used to manually track my time for each job, but when I started using FunctionFox and it's handy stopwatch feature, I was amazed at how much extra time I was actually spending on projects. This new information allowed me to better estimate jobs and accurately bill my clients. Accurate billing brought more financial stability to my small business. It pays for itself, keeps me organized and I love the new rebranded user interface too!

    Pros

    The design is strong and aesthetically pleasing along with easy-to-use intuitive features. The staff are so friendly and helpful. Customer service is phenomenal! Best time-tracking software I've used, hands down.

    Cons

    No complaints to report at this time.

    It won't make you lunch, but it does everything else.

    Reviewed 2 years ago

    We use Function Fox to keep track of our team's time and to quote future projects. The reporting gives us insight into areas we need to improve or quote differently. The system provides us with a big picture view of our workload along with the granular data for digging into the details. So far, I haven't found anything it cannot do, except make me lunch. :) To make the most of the software, I think it's wise to have a dedicated project manager on staff, although our designers embraced it fairly quickly and enter their own actions and other data.

    Pros

    Function Fox provides several ways to track time, so designers have their choice of methods. Even though we don't use it like we should (we're hiring a project manager soon), the Gantt charts are awesome for planning out a project and adjusting schedules as needed. I don't have to train my designers how to use it; Function Fox provides one-to-one live tutorials.

    Cons

    The user interface is not as user-friendly or aesthetically pleasing as some of the other products.

    Insufficient for large projects.

    Reviewed a year ago
    Pros

    Customer support is professional level. The interface is fast.

    Cons

    Frankly, the fact that the product was not flexible and customizable could not achieve the working process I wanted. It was very inadequate for me in terms of managing my projects. They don't have many functional tools for big projects.

    Vendor response

    Hi Sarah, Thanks for your honest review and feedback. sorry it wasn't ideal for your needs but appreciate your comments. Is this the Sarah H from Ohio (we have a few Sarah H)? We'd like to send you a little something for your review. With kindness

    Customer Service is worth its price in gold

    Reviewed 7 months ago

    Great! The customer service alone is worth the price we pay, we are always treated so well, and the team goes above and beyond to solve any questions/issues we run across!

    Pros

    Easy, accessible, and allows us to manage the billable and nonbillable hours for our agency in a snap.

    Cons

    Just our lack of knowledge of what else could serve our agency better, but we are learning!

    Vendor response

    Thanks for your kind comments Margaret - we truly appreciate it and your ongoing support.
