### "Harvest Review"

November 18, 2024

4.0

Pros

Harvest is easy to use and helps me track my time for accurate invoicing.

### "High quality timesheet tool"

September 23, 2024

5.0

Pros

Quality. The UI is very slick; they've really gone deep on how people use the product. Things like keyboard shortcuts and supporting regular vs decimal time when entering timesheets are a real time saver.

Cons

Some of the month-by-month project reporting requires paging through each month. It would be nice to see several months in one view.

### "A great time tracking/invoicing platform for people new to freelancing – or seasoned pros."

August 3, 2024

5.0

I've been using Harvest for well over a decade now, and I have no plans to switch. It's been with me through my first steps testing the waters of freelancing to going freelance full time. I make heavy use of the macOS app, which makes it easy for me to track my time throughout the day. And I rely on its invoicing and reporting features to get paid quickly and easily. What's not to love?

Pros

Harvest is easy to use, streamlined, with just the features I need and none of the features I don't. I primarily use it for time tracking and invoicing for my freelance business. There are enough configuration options for me to customize my time tracker and invoices for every client, and it takes just a minute or two to set up clients and send invoices.

Cons

Recently I've moved toward a monthly invoicing cycle, and there is no way for Harvest to automatically generate an invoice on the first of the month for all of the time tracked in the previous month. It's a small annoyance to make/send the invoice myself but a little more automation here would be welcome.

### "Report detailed time info "

November 22, 2024

5.0

Relatively intuitive time-tracking and reporting software. Just have to remind myself sometimes to clock out when I'm switching projects or ending work for the day.

Pros

I like drilling down to specific details about a project while tracking my time; Harvest lets me bill to a project and add auto-populated info about what I'm working on so I can report this info to clients. The mobile app ran well on my Android phone and was helpful away from my desk.

Cons

I had to manually round my time (our organization bills in increments). This would be a helpful feature if Harvest could do this automatically.

### "Easy to Use!"

September 26, 2024

5.0

Overall, I enjoy the platform for how efficient and easy to use it is.

Pros

It is easy to use and user friendly, even to those who have never used the platform.

Cons

There is currently no way to link tasks to specific user roles, however that is not a major issue.

### "Simple tool to get started but lacks potential to scale"

October 4, 2024

2.0

Its a simple product that can be quickly setup and used for simple time tracking and invoice generation.

Pros

Ease of use. Theres basically nothing you can do wrong.

Cons

### "Time Entry Could be Better"

October 27, 2024

1.0

It provided a platform for time entry, but due to the lack of user buy in, I don't think it provided accurate time entry.

Pros

Harvest was able to produce reporting that we could use for capturing capitalizable time and it was easy to update cost rates.

Cons

Time entry was difficult to do quickly, due to difficulties selecting the correct projects, etc. The reporting was outdated (the file would be sent to your email; you weren't able to just download the file at the time of export). It was difficult to identify the role of the various users without clicking into their profile.

### "Easy to use - custom reports makes it easy to generate internal insights"

September 3, 2024

5.0

I find Harvest easy to use, we use it to track time working on clients' files. Internally I use the reports to analyze how I use my time, and give myself benchmarks to improve.

Pros

It's easy to use. Time stamps can be adjusted. I LOVE the reports functionality, you can pull reports in a lot of different ways.

Cons

I can't think of any drawbacks to Harvest.

July 11, 2024

5.0

Sensationnel. Je le recommande à pleins de clients.

Pros

feuille de temps et facturation simple dans le même outils cloud.

Cons

Parfois manque de détails dans certains rapport, mais je peut toujours arriver à l'information que je cherche par Excel.

### "Efficient and well-integrated time-tracker tool"

September 1, 2024

4.0

Pros

The best thing about Harvest for me is how it well it can be integrated with other tools, so you can log your time from anywhere.

Cons

The only thing I don’t really like about Harvest is that it’s quite pricey.

August 14, 2024

Pros

Easy to use timekeeping + expense system across all employees

### "Review of Harvest"

July 14, 2024

5.0

Pros

Harvest has the capability to send regular time analysis reports that helps manage where time is being spent between projects.

Cons

Harvest's limited options for billing increments appears to be a drawback. Also, it would be a big plus if workers are able to clock in and out for payroll purposes.

### "Good information about time worked"

April 30, 2024

3.0

It was a fairly fluid collaborative experience, but I think we needed more development on the part of the program, in fact we like that the program can do time tracking things and serve as a collaborative space so that we can have more development in the team.

Pros

We spent a long time using Harvest with the development team, it gave us an order of the order of time that we carried out in the work group, it had a good way of measuring what we did, it had real tracking in which you started by turning on the PC and finished turning it off. This somewhat automated the records.

Cons

Extremely basic reports, we believe that it was necessary to obtain more than just time and tasks in the report but rather to obtain access indications of collaborators and in the parts when entering each collaborator who made it, perhaps we needed a little more from harvest.

It was a program more focused on accounting but it still did a good job of access time.

### "The Easiest Time Tracking Tool I Have Ever Used"

March 1, 2023

5.0

Great. The software does exactly what it needs to, we have ZERO problems with it, it is affordably priced... what's not to like?

Pros

Harvest is just really really really easy to use. Setting it up is fast and painless, administering jobs is easy, filling out timesheets is easy. Our team had a hard time tracking time prior to Harvest, and once we started using this software it became (almost) painless overnight.

Cons

It isn't really a "con" but Harvest is built to serve agencies who have multiple clients and bill them for work performed. We are an internal department within a company, so we had to work around some of the structural elements built into Harvest, but it was no problem. We easily adopted the platform to meet our needs.

Reason for choosing Harvest

We chose Harvest over Monday.com because Harvest was much simpler. We preferred that over a bigger more complex tool.

### "Time tracking that fits perfectly with Asana"

February 12, 2023

4.0

The fact that it is only in English made the learning progress a little less fluid. I think the UX leaves room for improvement, already. But I find it useful and we use it steadily.

Pros

The integration with Asana saves us much time: Harvest recognises the project, task type and name of the task and introduces them on the tracking for you.

Cons

I’m using Mac and this doesn’t work on Safari (it does in Chrome, however).

Alternatives considered

### "Track your time effectively with Harvest"

May 13, 2022

5.0

I now use Harvest daily to track my time on multiple tasks and projects and it barely takes me out of my flow. Then using the mobile app to stop and start when needed for accurate time tracking.

Pros

Harvest is so easy to use on any platform and integrate with other project management tools really well.

Cons

For our use, I haven’t found any issues with Harvest. Assuming you set up your projects correctly it works like a dream.

Reason for choosing Harvest

Harvest integrated well with Asana our project tracker, without the need to full set up projects into Harvest itself.

### "Best time tracking software in the Market!!"

July 30, 2022

4.0

Overall, It was a good experience while using the Harvest. It is a powerful tool to manage your tasks and all other personal work. I tried many productivity apps but then again it is overhead to use multiple apps to increase productivity. Instead, I would recommend Harvest for effective time management.

Pros

I liked Harvest's time tracking software. I was finding it difficult to manage time for my project. I tried many time tracking software but could not find any satisfactory software. As I was using ClickUp for taking notes, I saw there was a third-party integration option with other productivity apps like Harvest. I immediately integrated with Harvest and it made my life easy. I downloaded Harvest on all my devices. Now I can use time very effectively. I'd recommend Harvest to all people who are freelancers, software engineers, and students as it is a great productivity tool.

Cons

I think Harvest should provide some user interface for project management. Hopefully they will listen to this feedback and improve the project management feature.

### "Harvest for time tracking works best for me!"

December 11, 2022

5.0

I definitely will continue to support, utilize and spread the word myself about Harvest!

Pros

1\. The ease of use through a clean, simple interface. It is not cluttered, confusing or complicated.2. The affordable aspect of this for my use specifically. I am one freelancer, not a big company, so needing minimal features still works so well for me at this time.3. Support has been excellent with real people who care, and attend to my needs right away.

Cons

I have not seen as much advertisement or marketing on social media these days on Harvest, which is unfortunate, because it is so wonderful and needs more visibility!

Reason for choosing Harvest

It worked for me in the past, when I was first starting out as a freelancer, and it has proven over the years to work well and is reliable for me to this day.

### "Industy-leading Time Tracking and Invoicing"

August 3, 2023

5.0

Harvest has benefitted our business since inception. I tested all the tools, and this is the one we use and recommend to everyone we know with a SMB.

Pros

Harvest has the best time-tracking in the industry, their Mac app is perfect for capturing time throughout the day (and even has a built-in notification if it thinks you've left it running and will auto-adjust accordingly if you let it). It also has deep integrations with other Project Management tools that mean you can easily track time wherever you are. And then you have estimates and invoicing - which again, seamlessly integrate with the time tracking functionality to make your life easy.

Cons

It'd be great if they had an estimate to project function that could auto-setup a job when an estimate is approved. Currently this is the only manual feature. Retainer reports are also a little confusing as they don't obviously isolate actual payments from retainer balance updates.
