Questions from consultants
- Can I track time on my phone?
Track time on the web, iPhone or Android. The mobile apps sync with your account and are included in your subscription.
- Can I track retainers and fixed-fee projects?
Set a recurring allowance for a retainer or a budget for a fixed project. Track time against it, invoice the agreed fee, and compare the hours worked with what you charged to check your margin.
- What can I learn about utilisation and profitability?
Reports break down hours and billable value by client, project, task and person. Compare billable time with the rest of your week, see what’s unbilled, and compare the hours with your fees and costs.
- Do I need accounting software to send invoices?
You can create and send invoices directly from MinuteDock. If you connect your accounting software, invoices arrive there as drafts for you to approve and send.
- Can I use it on my own or with a small team?
Start on your own or invite your team, with no limits on clients or projects. Quick time tracking, retainer budgets and invoices built from your hours keep the work and billing together.
- Can I bring over time from another system?
Email your time data as a CSV to team@minutedock.com for help importing it. Our free consultant timesheet template includes a client sign-off block and a retainer tab.
Spend more time advising clients
Quick time tracking and invoices built from your hours mean less admin between calls, workshops and project work.
