Overall Satisfaction with Harvest

We use Harvest as a time tracking tool, which in turn helps us manage our projects (keeping them on time and on budget). We also connect to Forecast which helps us with our resourcing and forecasting, and to send invoices to clients at the end of the month. It's an integral process to managing our people and pipeline.

Pros

  • Flexibility in how we are tracking time and budget
  • Easy linking to Forecast
  • Report pulls for where time was spent

Cons

  • Including profitability in reporting
  • Custom dashboards with widgets to help us know what our top projects were, or by specific tasks within a project
  • Overtime alerts (for full days or specific tasks within a project)
  • We can make better decisions when we have improved time visibility (pricing, scope, etc.)
  • Streamlined invoicing helps us reduce admin time
  • Detailed time exports are helpful when we need to report for transparency
The UI is straightforward, and there's a solid desktop + mobile experience. Logging hours is also quick and flexible. Occasionally it's annoying to select the same project/task daily. I also wish that I could adjust the time on a running clock. i.e. subtract 0.5h from a running timer.

Do you think Harvest delivers good value for the price?

Not sure

Are you happy with Harvest's feature set?

Yes

Did Harvest live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Harvest go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Harvest again?

Yes

It's great for our use right now, but as we get into bigger, more complex projects, I worry that it's not going to hold up with the more robust project management needs we'll have. Also, as a non-billable employee, its value is less useful to me even though I know it could be more helpful

Using Harvest

35 - All of our business functions use Harvest. From project management, to development, to design, to content strategy, and general organization management of our agency.
