Everhour vs. Journyx

Everhour is useful in every environment where you need the measure of time for certain tasks. In most cases, this could be project management but it could also include trips or travels, conferences, congresses, or several other things that you need to take control of the time used. Its less appropriate if you are going to measure things in weeks or days, it's better to measure smaller pieces of time like minutes of hours, so you could have a more useful metrics to work with.

Our director of research utilized this software at another facility and implemented it here due to the success of data capture from his other hospital. We were very fortunate that he had already knowledge about the system and we were able to implement it our institution very quickly.

• It has a genius dashboard with all real-time traffic information of all team members. It is a very useful tool as well to track efficiency for both in-house and remote team members
• It has well-done integration with Asana (and other task-managers) which allows you to track time on tasks without switching between apps or tools which it truly awesome
• It has a scheduling tool which allows you to plan long term traffic of all your team members by using Asana projects and tasks so there is no need to copy and paste the same story points between different systems
• It has flexible reporting system which allows you to build very custom project time tracking report based on your needs (any field or table type can be customized and you wish)

• Reporting of time - I know when I pull reports for each employee/contractor that I will have information at the touch of my fingertips.
• Creating new users - is very easy.
• Entering time - is easy for even the first time user

• An integration with the desktop version of Asana would be useful, as many of our employees use that version.
• A reminder when a task has been running for a while would be useful too, as the user could have forgotten to turn off the timer
• Multiple tasks running simultaneously would be useful, as many times we solve some problems while we are reunited or complete some tasks while other processes are running.

• There is a LOT of functionality, including a many functions that we don't ever use. If there were some way to set up a "dashboard" of only the functions we need, it might be a little easier to navigate some of the management and reporting areas.
• Initial setup can be daunting, particularly for a larger company using a lot of functionality. Its been a long time since we've been through that, but the initial training and support has to be robust, comprehensive and very clear. (However, I can't say that it isn't now)

All depending on cost for renewal. This is very expensive as a reporting tool, as we do not recover the cost through billing

Everhour's overall usability is definitely one of its key strengths. The UI is intuitive and clean, making time tracking feel less "technical" than other solutions we've tried. Our entire team, including less tech-savvy contractors, found it easy to use.

Yes, it's there when I need it.

In the almost 2 1/2 years we have had to contact support 1 time and it really was for a feature request. Their support team responded quickly and told us that the feature was going to be added in the next few months. We have had no support issues ever. I have never had a time tracking solution that has had no issues until Everhour.

Good training overall, some areas we do use.

It takes a lot of planning and it's time consuming.

When evaluating other systems, we compared Everhour against Toggl Track and JIRA. Toggl Track offered robust reporting but felt too feature-heavy for our contractor management needs. It was also a bit more difficult to use. JIRA's time tracking, while powerful for development teams, was overly complex for us and had too much overhead.

This would be good for a small company who does not want to build their own time submission system. The interface is fairly dated, but we are quite familiar with it, so that is not really a negative for our company. The primary feature we struggle with most is the inability to allow line-item rejection of time entries

Incentivized

Server issues at first.

Incentivized

• Simplifies end-of-month billing processes and reduces manual entry
• Quicker team onboarding due to consistent time tracking structure between Asana & Everhour
• Improved productivity due to Asana integration as tasks can be reassigned and tracked by multiple team members, regardless of who is assigned to the task (good for collaboration between team members)

Incentivized

• Easier and more efficient cost fund allocation.
• Requires employee time reporting on activity, cost center and other custom fields synced with payroll so records are submitted, reviewed and approved every two weeks.
• Funders are confident in our ability to appropriately allocate funds.
