Square Invoices is the best service that I have found for what it does: it's easy to use, nice to look at, and never seems to go to spam or be lost by clients. Clients mention that the setup is easier than services my competitors use. You can even attach your contract to the invoice, which is wonderful in case there are questions later on. Unfortunately, not being able to have clients alter quantities or select add-ons means for half of my services, I have to use a different, inferior service.
TimeCamp is a software designed for mobile devices that allows us to keep track of the working hours of employees without the use of a computer. It also allows us to send notifications to employees when their workday is approaching.
TimeCamp allows you to add taxes, calculate payroll and invoice everything in one place.
TimeCamp is useful to create the payment plan of each employee; automatically calculates the discounts for the taxes that must be paid, facilitating the task of processing payroll payments.
TimeCamp makes it easy to calculate ROI by evaluating and comparing hourly labor costs to revenue.
TimeCamp makes it easy to review the workday while budgeting for new initiatives and paying employees.
TimeCamp is a little bit expensive. It needs overall improvement in all tools. Moreover, the mobile version is not as useful as the web version of TimeCamp.
Other than that, customer service needs more attention and requires more improvement.
Also, I feel like that if there are more features of TimeCamp then it would be better.
The only time I had a problem was a false chargeback from a client. Square Invoices referenced our contract and ruled in my favor, and they did so in a timely manner. I sent them the contract and my email history with the client, and they quickly unfroze the amount of money.
I am giving support a rating of 8 but that is quite arbitrary. Honestly, we have never had the need to contact support for any reason. There has not been a situation where we became stuck and could not figure out how to work through it. Sign up was easy and billing is like clockwork so there has been no need to contact billing support. I think this is a testament to the ease of use of TimeCamp.
I feel that for what it does, Square Invoices outperforms its competition. Because we have used the program for several years, we have seen how they continue to improve their service - making it user-friendly and accessible for a variety of needs. Other platforms are not as easy to set up, add items, and access funds after payment is received.
Ultimately I selected Clockify instead of TimeCamp. As previously mentioned, I believe that TimeCamp wasn't that intuitive, and too many things were behind pay walls. Clockify offered the same features mostly for free. Although TimeCamps UX was sleeker than Clockify's I found that Clockify was a better fit for me.
The fee for invoicing is extremely reasonable for how easy it is. At 2.75% per transaction, it's well worth it.
I like that invoices can be printed and mailed or sent via email for easy online payment.
I have a 100% collection rate on my invoices, and they are often paid within 24-48 hours of being sent, which saves me the time of chasing down checks, which can be especially cumbersome when I have multiple clients.
The most positive impact it has had is that we are able to accurately track our clients billed time. This has streamlined our process giving us a more efficient system.
One thing that timecamp can do is track computer time that is non billed time. This allow us to see where time is being wasted which does have a direct effect on out ROI.
