"The administration and analytics components of the application allow for the sophisticated accounting controls and reporting ability we need to support the thorough invoice detail requirements of many clients. Being able to export reports to Google Drive helps us to share information quickly and facilitate collaboration across our organization."
"We always want to be using emergent technology and smart software, not just following the old standards of antiquated agency software and solutions."
"It’s very rare that anybody actually questions the invoices because the people who pay the invoices recognize the names, and they know that they’re on the team."
“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.”
“I think Harvest is helpful because it does a lot of the organization and the work for you. I come from a charter management organization background where we're literally sending out timesheets and asking people to sign them — it's a very involved process. And with Harvest, a person can simply go into the system and log their hours and it's all seamless within the process.”
"It seemed like all of those missing pieces we were looking for were part of Harvest, and over time, those features have evolved and become even more useful."

“It’s just easy to get people set up, so that they’re tracking time immediately. I haven’t seen anything that would be better.”

“Harvest was one of the first tools the founders signed up for. We had a Harvest account before we had a Gmail account.”
"We’re pulling mobile away from being just a phone and placing it at the heart of a much larger system.”
"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.”
"Harvest has fundamentally helped us diversify and scale our business and it's definitely made many of the things that were just necessary tasks of running an agency very easy."
