Do your Timesheets need a tech upgrade?

Our timesheets save over 2 hours compared to other systems. That’s a day a month. Learn how.

Advanced Time Tracking

Saves time as employees track time

Time® saves employees 1-2 hours a week†, a valuable return on investment.

How it works

Everyone works differently. Some people prefer to enter time via a spreadsheet-like timesheet, some like timers, others like to utilize data already in Outlook or Google appointments for time tracking. Time® provides the flexibility for employees to perform time tracking in whichever methods suit them best. They can also use the device that suits them best, as Time® supports PCs, Macs, phones and tablets.

We give each customer a perfect fit

Every customer is different. Rather than being fixed in their functionality like most systems, Time® is highly configurable and customizable, so it can be setup to perfectly meet each organizations rules, procedures, workflow and reporting today, and as needs change in the future.

Time® is designed to grow as you grow. So, although it may cost a little more to implement than other systems, the return on investment is instantaneous§, and as Time® can expand and adapt as your needs change, you will never need to implement another timesheet system ever again‡.

† Customers report an average saving of around 4 hours/week compared to paper timesheets & Excel timesheets, and around 2 hours/week (1 day a month!) wcompared to other cloud systems.

‡ Time® grows as you grow. Our very first customer is still a customer today. We’ve evolved through DOS, networks, Web 1.0 to cutting edge cloud and they have grown from 40 employees in 1 office to over 700 employees across several offices.

§ ROI is fast and big. Eg. saving just 15 minutes a week compared to other systems, (average saving is over 2 hours a week) at minimum wage, the payroll savings alone would mean any other supplier would need to pay you to use their product.

Time tracking & timesheet entry via PC, Mac, Phone, Tablet, Outlook and Google
With Office 365 look and feel, users are instantly familiar with the systems. This helps make our timesheets faster and easier to learn and use.
Timers help users track time on specific tasks throughout the day. Users can start, stop and swap between timers as the day evolves. It’s easy, accurate and perfect for busy users.
Users of Outlook or Google calendars can save hours each week by turning Outlook or Google appointments into timesheets.
The timesheet dashboard provides users with a quick summary of timesheet status.
Easy navigation allows users to quickly move back and forth in time to the last completed timesheet, last entered, submitted or current week
Timesheet column names can be tailored to match the terms your organization uses. Matching the terminology makes timesheet entry more intuitive and easier for end users.
Within a job or project, there are two further sub levels available for analysis. These can also be renamed to suit your organization, and users can sort timesheets by any column heading.
Time can be entered as hours.decimals, hours:minutes, or as a %age of time.
Notes can be allocated to each timesheet cell. Cells with notes can be recognized by the notes icon. Notes are available in reporting and billing.
Color coding can be setup to highlight days that do and do not meet minimum hours requirements. Red shows days that are incomplete.
With the mobile app, users can enter timesheets via mobile phone and tablet as well.
Once setup, Time® is intuitive and easy to use, but if users need help there is an inbuilt support system for your organization. Users can ask questions of administrators and ask questions which the inbuilt search system answers.

Dig a little deeper...

Timewatch® timesheet systems offers multiple entry methods and advanced features that allow our customers to configure our solutions to perfectly match their needs now, and grow, adapt and evolve system features in the future. Click on the items below to learn more.

Standard Timesheet

The classic timesheet, with a twist

Time is a valuable commodity, it's why timesheets exist, and why Timewatch® focus on saving users time wherever possible.

We take the classic ‘spreadsheet’ timesheet, and pack it with time saving features that save 2-4 hours a month compared to other systems.

First is MS-Office look and feel. Customers tell us their users feel instantly familiar with the system.

Next, users often work on the same or similar tasks from day to day. Our assignment picker predictively searches as users type, learns what users are working on and suggests these automatically.

You may book time to customers and projects, others to clients and task or matters. Even configuring terminology to match your organization’s terms saves time.

The time savings all add up, but we also allow users to turn Outlook appointments into timesheets, use Timers and even talk to your timesheet saving more than a day each month.

It’s like having an extra employee free for every 20 employees. It sounds too good to be true, but it is true. Contact us today to learn more.

Microsoft Outlook

Outlook Timesheet

Turn appointments into timesheets

Outlook appointments already hold most of the information needed for a timesheet – start time, end time, duration, date, subject and notes.

With Timewatch®, your users can save hours each week by turning appointments into timesheets. We augment Outlook, allowing users to allocate customer & project details to appointments, and then post them to their timesheet. It’s that easy!

If your organization uses Outlook and needs to track timesheets, a Timewatch® system can save your users time, increase timesheet accuracy and reporting.

Save time - speak

Okay Google, add 2 hours to my timesheet...

Which is faster?

Saying ‘Okay Google, add 2 hours to my timesheet for customer ABC, project XYZ’. Or entering a timesheet on a Web or Mobile App?

Speaking is faster, hands down. Even though our web and mobile apps are built for speed and faster than all other systems, nothing beats speaking for speed.

Best of all, there are times when we cannot use our hands, but can speak to enter our timesheet. Walking, driving, there are so many opportunities to speak to your timesheet through the day that do not take time out of your working day at all.

Talking to your timesheet is not the be-all and end-all of timesheet entry. It is an important part of our holistic approach to timesheet entry. Users can each choose the ideal tool to enter time in the way that best suits them, and minimizes impact on their working day. It’s why employees love Timewatch® timesheets.

Timesheet timer for time tracking

Timers

Track time as you work

Timers are a great tool for busy users with a stop / start type of day.

Should the phone ring or a meeting start, users can simply start a timer. They can flip from one timer to another as they move from task to task, and once complete (or while the timer is running) they can allocate customer, project and other details before posting the timer to their timesheet.

Timers save time, increase timesheet accuracy and are yet another tool in the holistic timesheet system that Timewatch® provide.

Timesheet approval

Manager Approval

Timesheet manager review, return and approval...

Some organizations have a rigid timesheet approval process. Some allow self approval, some have a minimum hours requirement that once met, allows submission or self approval.

Some have custom timesheet approval rules.

The beauty of a Timewatch® system is that they are highly configurable and can be setup to support any of these approaches. Additionally, as the system supports multi-office, multi-location implementations, we even a mixture of approval by office, location and even by employee.

PC, Mac, Phone & tablet time and billing

Any Device

Our cloud apps support all devices..

Timewatch® timesheet systems run on all major devices including: PC, Mac, Chrome Book, Android, iPhone & iPad.

Our products are modern responsive systems, which means they automatically adapt to the device being used. There is nothing to download or install on any device, so there are no headaches from unusual phones or older phone OS’s. There is no corporate security risk from data being downloaded and stored on the device or from people not upgrading to the latest release. As everything is run from a browser, users are always running the latest and most secure timesheet system.

Secure

Highest security, and no mobile device risks...

97% of all paid and 80% of free Android and iPhone apps have been hacked (Arxan & ISSA.org).

Mobile Apps store corporate data such as customers, projects, invoices, appointments, expenses etc. and they run on devices that are outside of the security control of the organization’s IT group.

Timewatch® timesheet systems are the latest breed of responsive cloud system that supports browsers on all devices and adapt to the device being used. There’s nothing users to install, nothing users forget to update, so no security risk from people using old versions. Best of all, there is no data stored locally, no security risk and nothing to worry about if a phone is lost or stolen.

You wouldn’t expect to download a Windows or Mac client to use cloud software, you shouldn’t for mobile either. Just like the desktop, on mobile, all you should need is a browser. It's faster, easier and much, much more secure.

Reporting

Outstanding reporting tools

Often customers tell us that their previous product didn’t report on notes, sort data the way the wanted, or have some frustrating limitation. You’ll have no such concerns with Timewatch®, if the data is in the system, you can report on it.

We provide a number of powerful reporting tools, starting with the ubiquitous print preview style reports, but with some extra special features.

It’s often takes time to locate the report you want, so we provide a Gallery view, which users love as they can flick through reports. There are also thumbnail and list views, and administrators can attach common reports to menus and vary these by user. Reports are all managed by our security model, so you can control which users see which reports.

Reports can be styled for your organization with logos, fonts and colors. All reports support data export, but if there are any specific report formats or requirements, custom reports can be created via our SQL Report Designer or our report writing services.

Drill down layer by layer to the underlying timesheet and resource scheduling data

Drill Down Reporting

Drill down from high level, to summary to transactions.

In addition to ‘classic’ reports, advanced editions of Timewatch® systems include our powerful drill down reporting system.

Drill downs provide spreadsheet like summary views on timesheet data that with a double click, drills down level by level all the way down to the underlying transactions. Drill downs provide unparalleled inquisitive reporting. Customers often tell us it is their favorite reporting tool and one they could not imagine living without as with it, they can navigate directly to the data or transactions in question, then right mouse click to print or export.

Timewatch timesheet and resource scheduling dashboard

Dashboards

Visualize your data

Dashboards provide a high level, visual display of organizational KPI’s, metrics, and data. These give CEOs and CFOs and managers at-a-glance visibility into business performance across all units, customers, projects and employees.

Dashboards help managers visualize and understand data with a powerful collection of charts and data summaries, which help them make faster and better informed decisions.

Custom Reporting

Creating the perfect reports for your organization

Timewatch® customers choose the reports they want within their system from an extensive library of standard reports.

Should the need arise for additional report views, formats, summaries or layouts, custom reports can be created. Timewatch® offer a powerful end user SQL Report Designer for those that wish to develop their own reports, we also offer a cost effective report writing service.

Whatever your requirements, you can build the perfect timesheet report system for your organization, without limits or compromise.

Timewatch apps

Apps / Customization

Apps allow customers to tailor their system

There’s no ‘one size fits all’ for timesheet systems. That’s why there are so many.

Each customer has different needs, and there are three approaches suppliers use. The most common is the simplest, create a really simple system with just the core features – tracking time. The next is to create a feature rich system that covers every possible need, and the third is a custom, bespoke system.

Simple systems are cheap, easy to use, but limited in functionality which ultimately increases costs as customers work around limitations and eventually outgrow and replace them. Feature rich systems are more costly, more difficult to set up and use as flexibility means they often have more features that customers need. Bespoke systems are costly to develop and maintain.

Full disclosure – we used to take the second approach in our prior product, so we know what everyone needs. But for our cloud solution, we’ve invented a fourth approach – a core system with specialist and custom Apps.

Apps allow our systems to be simple at their core, but allow customers to expand the functionality by choosing the Apps that perfectly match their needs. It’s like having a system designed and developed just for you, but without all the hassle, or cost.

Timesheet apps, scheduling apps, PSA solution apps

Custom Apps

Customization without the headaches

Timewatch® timesheet systems are highly configurable. But what if you need a unique feature, functionality specific to your organization, or a custom integration to a 3rd party or in house system?

No problem. We actually come across this all the time and have a developed a range of tools to help customers achieve a perfect fit.

Custom Apps allow for literally anything to be added. Infrastructure such as custom tabs, buttons, forms, business logic, workflow can all be incorporated within Custom Apps that can be deployed specifically for you. Additionally, open API’s allow customers and developers to create real time integrations.

Customizations are also future proof. As we release new versions of our systems, all API integrations and Custom Apps carry on working. It’s incredible technology that has to be seen to be believed. Contact us today, we’ll happily discuss your specific needs and show you examples of other customizations we’ve created.

Integration

Link with anything. Anything.

We provide a perfect environment for developers to create efficient, real-time integration with Timewatch® systems.

API’s include both read and write functionality, and we automatically provide only new of changed items since last fetch to make interface development simpler. If data originates in a Timewatch®, rather than polling to see if anything has changed, we can notify your code there are updates to process. We can even create an App so we post in real time to your system and you post in real time to us, which is an extremely efficient interface topology.

Contact us today, we’ll happily discuss your specific needs and how best to create the perfect real-time interface.

Timewatch multi-currency

No compromise timesheet rates

Powerful, no compromise rating system to accurately value time.

Timewatch® timesheet rating systems allow our customers to set their rates in the ideal way for them, for their customers and their projects.

No matter how simple or how complex the route you take to value timesheets, we can support you
