52 Harvest Testimonials

“Any type of new project—animation, for example, which is new—that can be potentially a big project in terms of hours, we’ll look at the postmortem of ‘predicted versus actual’."

"Harvest was a better way of keeping things real, understanding what I was spending time on and whether these jobs were as profitable as I was imagining them to be."

“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.”

"When we found Harvest we didn’t even bother with a free trial, we just opened our wallets, and never looked back."

"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.”

“Our mission is to make something so delicious that consumers come back for a second bite. Clients often require us to create their product with guardrails such as, low-calorie with a health halo. We love this kind of challenge and using our expertise to create a delicious bite that consumers not only crave but feel good about eating.”

“In the past, I would walk the office and see my dev team and my project management team. I could see what they’re working on and get a sense of where the stress levels are. I can’t do that anymore.”

"Using Harvest and Forecast, we can see if a project is in danger of going off track and it gives us the ability to course correct those things way before they actually become problems."

"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."

“I clocked in under my 10,000th hour last year with Harvest — so we've nerded out on Harvest for a long time. And we've really seen it evolve with our company and now we have it where it's really simple and we can build in a lot of automation.”

"What's good about Harvest is you can get a trajectory of where you're going—day by day, week by week, month by month."

“Time tracking has helped us understand that we (and our clients) don’t realize how long it takes to design great work.”

“It’s not because the tools don't exist, it's because the lawyers are unwilling to invest the time and the energy into learning how to use them. It's a profession that has always been really resistant to technological change. And I think it's because very few lawyers have any kind of technical background. They're sort of disinterested in technology and computers. I don't actually think it's because they're too busy. I just think it's a problem of priority.”

“Harvest was one of the first tools the founders signed up for. We had a Harvest account before we had a Gmail account.”
