52 Harvest Testimonials

"Harvest was very key to helping me start my company – it allowed us to move from a world of managing a lot of subcontractors to managing a staff quite easily."

“I think we kind of built our business a little bit around the utility of Harvest. Having the visualizations of data where you don't have to go and build reports has been super, super helpful. And using visualizations to see where projects are, who's on the projects, how much time is spent, and how much of the project budgets have been spent is super easy.”

“Our work on the ground is really to infuse K-12 computer science into the learning experiences of all teachers and students, and ensure that it reaches every community in the United States — that your ability to access computer science education and your learning outcomes, your ability to really create with computing should not be limited by your zip code or the income of your parents, or the ability of a parent to actually know the space and teach you at home.”

“It’s awesome to see emails coming in from parents that have three or four kids with learning disabilities and hear that Provider Choice has really helped them. It’s just cool to know you’re helping people.”

“Something we see a lot is that especially non-technical co-founders, they really want to focus on growing a big business. They want to find a partner they can trust to own the product side of the business while they focus on sales and marketing and moving into overseas markets.”

"We always want to be using emergent technology and smart software, not just following the old standards of antiquated agency software and solutions."

"To look back at previous projects and see how long tasks took helps us provide an accurate estimate for new projects."

“The fact that you can just follow up with clients [with the automated reminders] is more of an incentive for them to pay us, as opposed to just emailing a PDF invoice. Payment gets fulfilled much quicker with this system we have set up with Harvest.”

“When COVID happened, we had eight years of consistent time entry reporting and budget tracking under our belts. We were in a good position with our projects—and if there were projects that weren’t performing well enough, we were aware of it and could make an adequate response.”

“It works well because you have continuity. A lot of the same people who are designing might be involved in the construction management, and we can go out to the nursery and see whether the plant material we want to use is available.”

"It helps us be transparent. I can provide clients with incredibly detailed lists of exactly what happened using an export from Harvest."

“The program we used offered a lot more features and settings. Though, in the end, it wound up being overly complicated to navigate all of those features, many of which were unnecessary.”

“We handle general reporting on a weekly and monthly basis. We have weekly gut checks on our project burns and forecasting profitability going forward. We love the filters available under reporting, i.e. custom reporting options. Most of our reporting reviews are internal, but we’ve recently started sharing the PDF views of reports with clients, which we’ve received positive feedback on in terms of clarity and legibility.”

“Using Harvest has helped us become more proactive as a team. When timesheets are easy to enter, we have good data to work with. Everyone has a clear picture of how a project is progressing and can see problems before they happen – allowing us to respond and be more profitable without sacrificing creativity.”

“I use the reports to understand revenue recognition, across all our projects, and then the roll up for each client. I also use it to look at utilization of staff and time.”
