| Time & Billing Software Posted by SippyCup Looking to upgrade from our current time & billing software and was wondering what the accountants, attorneys, etc of the MT use. Reply Back to Top |
| My company uses BigTime Software. I can't answer what it costs. I know it is easy to use though to track billing of several clients. Reply Back to Top |
| For time I use Timeslips. Intergrates right into outlook and can store multiple clients. It is also completly customizable. Reply Back to Top |
| A lot of people have recommended timeslips but it has a lot that we dont necessarliy need. I have to keep it simple for some of my staff. Does Big Time have the option to start/stop a running clock on clients? Reply Back to Top |
| I would imagine someone with very basic programming knowledge could create a stripped down time program with or without a database backend. I honestly need to do this for myself. As I work at a small firm I've just gotten use to writing down my time and having a bill typed up from it. I know that is extremely inefficient but I don't do much billable stuff. In fact, I probably only bill around 100 hours a year, but I keep my time on certain types of files just in case. Reply Back to Top |
| Our office uses PCLaw... and it sucks. That's one I'd stay away from. You have to purchase a license for each person and to my knowledge there's no multi license package of discount. Also its slow and lags and is somehow tied to Internet Explorer, which it has a particular disliking for IE8. Reply Back to Top |
| TIMEnX and it is fine except when it crashes and you have to redo the submission entirely. Reply Back to Top |
| I use Quickbooks. Reply Back to Top |
| I would look to see what the associations of your profession use/recommend. What works for an acct may not work for a lawyer as some are geared not just to billing but to practice management as well. Reply Back to Top |
| Unfortunately my knowledge of BigTime is minimal. Project managers set up buckets on the spreadsheet and I simply put my time in. I know our company is trying to eventually move from it to our own billing software but that project has been pushed back. Reply Back to Top |
| My accounting firm uses Prosystem fx Practice Management. We've had other systems before this one and definitely like this one the best. Reply Back to Top |
| Pro system is definitely the best but probably pricey. Reply Back to Top Refresh |
