Pros

  • Ease of entering time information. You can create nicknames or shortcuts so you don't have to reenter the same info over and over.
  • You can assign a number to each of your employees and each number can have a separate billing rate.
  • Reports are easy to create with any information you specify.

Cons

  • It could be a bit more "user-friendly" by having a tips or help area to click on.
  • It is a bit costly on start up and you still have to pay for upgrades.

Return on Investment

  • The most positive effect it has had on our firm is that when we need to report to our insurance companies what work we've done for their clients, it's an easy few clicks to get the information we need to fulfill their request.

Pros

  • TimeSlips doesn't crash, doesn't lose data, backs-up easily; facilitates accurate reports showing funds received, accounts receivable, trust fund balances and billing/collection statistics.

Cons

  • I would like to see web access so that I am not limited to access only via my primary computer.
  • I would like the program to be more intuitive with self-correcting verbiage.
  • When inputting multiple data for one client, I'd like the program to be more intuitive by self filling or having the option to self fill the biller's name, the service and the client fields.

Return on Investment

  • Over the years it has been worth its weight in gold - huge return over cost
  • The biggest negative occurred within the past year in that one was required to acquire an annual license raising the annual cost, but not to the point where it becomes cost ineffective.

  • It is easy to run pre-bills and to finalize billing.

Cons

  • The reports feature is confusing and we sometimes have issues running specific reports.
  • eCenter should allow staff and attorneys to review their prior billing even after the time and expenses have been transferred over to Timeslips.
