The fact that tasks stay synced with Basecamp is huge. When a task changes in our project tool, it stays consistent in Timenotes, so reporting doesn’t turn into cleanup.

We use Timenotes mainly for cost control. Hours roll up cleanly, and project costs are visible as we go. It’s not magic, but it prevents surprises.

The daily activity view helps me understand what’s moving today. It’s visibility without hovering over people.

We compared a few tools and switched to Timenotes mainly for the timesheet view. It gives a better overview of team activity without extra steps.

The unified timesheet is the best part. Capacity + tracked time + approved absences in one view gives me everything I need to understand what is going on in the team of our size.

I track from the browser and just move on. Nothing fancy, but all I need and for free ;)

The timer is one click and always there, and people actually use it. That’s basically all I need.

Before Timenotes, team time was a mess between spreadsheets and people’s notes. Now it’s one system. We’re not "perfect" at tracking, but we’re getting better, and that’s what matters. The budget view on project dashboard makes scope creep show up early instead of at the invoice stage.

I start a timer, forget about it, stop it. If I mess up, editing entries on mobile is quick. That’s the whole workflow, and it’s fine!

When we rolled out timesheet approvals and locking, we needed a bit of help to set it up properly. Support was responsive and walked us through the approval flow so it matched how we actually work. Once configured, it’s been running smoothly and removed a lot of confusion around submissions and follow-ups.

Mobile tracking is handy when the day is meetings and travel. I add a quick entry and love the fact tasks are coming from Basecamp, even on mobile!

Approvals got tighter without becoming annoying. You can see who finalized their month and who just didn’t submit. Follow-ups are specific, not blanket reminders to everyone - that's a serious improvement for the worst part of month.

The interface is clean and easy to follow. Most features are straightforward and have everything I need.

The flat monthly price made the decision straightforward. Timenotes covered the same features as our old setup, but without per-seat fees, so switching was an easy call.
