“Trying to think back and answer “what did I do that day?” was the worst time of the week. Timely is a necessity. I love the GPS tracking, automation and just how simple it is.”

— Hanna, bookkeeper

“Timely does everything you want it to. It makes it so simple for our team to track their time to manage company profitability.”

— Annabel, finance officer

"I need a simple way to track my time for a dozen or so clients. Timely was the most straight forward, intuitive and easy to use solution I found, and the support staff is very responsive in a good way :)"

— Nancy, accountant

“Working across several clients at the same time, time tracking has always been time consuming and painful. Timely has completely resolved that issue. It captures everything I work on so I can see exactly how much time I have worked on a certain client project.”

— Marlene, bookkeeper

“While I charge clients fixed fees, it is essential for good practice management to be able to monitor where our most valuable resource (time) is being spent. I constantly switch between clients, which makes time recording very difficult. I previously used Toggl, but remembering to stop the timer was near impossible! I couldn't be more pleased when I found Timely’s automatic time tracking.”

— Richard, accountant

“I knew I was missing time due to bouncing from client to client, and was looking for something to capture those lost billables. I can already tell Timely is going to help me bill more of my time, increasing my revenue without increasing my work.”

— Melanie, accountant

“Timely will revolutionise your time tracking, whether you bill by the hour or do fixed price engagements. Its automation has helped stop the end-of-the-week Excel timesheet guess work, which used to take us at least an hour to do manually.”

— Wernardt, accounting and tax consultancy director

“Timely is the best way to measure exactly where your time goes. It lets me measure which projects are most and least profitable—and accurately track all the mini-tasks that constantly take up so much time. Timers can’t compare—there is no other way to accurately measure what you spend time on.”

— Brian, accountant
