Time tracking in the same tool changed our billing

Client status reporting used to take a morning a week. Now it takes ten minutes. In browser proofing and mark up for images, video and PDFs. That is the part that genuinely changed how we work. Nothing has come up in the last year that I would call a real problem. I would recommend it to a business of our size without hesitation.

What works

Custom request forms that route intake with the right fields. Time tracking sits with the tasks, so billing is accurate. Automation handles the routine handoffs between teams.

What does not

Reporting is weaker than the task management.

Time tracking in the same tool changed our billing

Client status reporting used to take a morning a week. Now it takes ten minutes. Custom item types for modelling briefs, campaigns and assets. That is the part that genuinely changed how we work. There are irritations, and none of them are the kind that make you look elsewhere. I would recommend it to a business of our size without hesitation.

What works

Custom request forms that route intake with the right fields. The mobile app is good enough for approvals on the road. Time tracking sits with the tasks, so billing is accurate.

What does not

Seat bands mean paying for people who do not exist.

Visibility across twelve projects, finally

We rolled it out to twenty two people and adoption was close to complete within a month. Custom request forms that route intake with the right fields. That is the part that genuinely changed how we work. Nothing has come up in the last year that I would call a real problem. I would recommend it to a business of our size without hesitation.

What works

In browser proofing and mark up for images, video and PDFs. The mobile app is good enough for approvals on the road. Everyone can see what is due this week without asking.

What does not

Reporting is weaker than the task management.

Simple enough that people actually use it

The team asked to keep it after the trial, which has never happened before. Custom request forms that route intake with the right fields. That is the part that genuinely changed how we work. Nothing has come up in the last year that I would call a real problem. Two years in and nobody has suggested we look at alternatives.

What works

In browser proofing and mark up for images, video and PDFs. The mobile app is good enough for approvals on the road. Templates mean a new project is set up in minutes.

What does not

Without governance the number of boards grows out of control.

Client status reporting used to take a morning a week. Now it takes ten minutes. In browser proofing and mark up for images, video and PDFs. That is the part that genuinely changed how we work. Nothing has come up in the last year that I would call a real problem. Worth the migration effort, which is not something I say often.

What works

In browser proofing and mark up for images, video and PDFs. Client facing views mean fewer status emails. Time tracking sits with the tasks, so billing is accurate.

What does not

Seat bands mean paying for people who do not exist.

Fine for tasks, weak for resourcing

Good tool. The pricing bands do not suit a team of our size. In browser proofing and mark up for images, video and PDFs. Beyond that it is more ordinary than the marketing suggests. It sits squarely in the middle for us, useful but not something I would champion. Good value, with some real rough edges.

What works

Custom request forms that route intake with the right fields. Task management is reliable.

What does not

Performance degrades on a large workspace. There is no native time tracking.

Reporting could not answer basic questions

Performance on our office connection made it a chore. The thing worth knowing is that the parts we were sold on never worked the way they were demonstrated. The gaps are the kind that create work rather than save it. Test it hard during the trial with real volume before committing.

What works

The free tier is generous.

What does not

Half the team never adopted it. We paid for a tier we could not make use of. It was too slow on our connection.
