What started as a solution for their own company has since evolved into a business intelligence platform embraced by thousands of professional services firms across the world who share the same drive to grow thriving, sustainable businesses.Harvest is an independent, profitable company. We don’t have investors, shareholders, or a board of directors. Instead, our main drive is to serve the needs of our customers, so we put them at the forefront of every decision we make.All of this is made possible by the incredible Harvest team. Our small but mighty workforce sits across 9 countries and 11 time zones, resulting in a rich working environment where diverse perspectives, backgrounds, and opinions inform every discussion and decision.

What do you like best about Harvest?

Harvest is simply a time tracker for projects. It's simple and easy to use. It integrates where I need it to. It doesn't try to be more than a time tracker. I just stays in its lane, does so with excellence, and doesn't cause problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Harvest?

The mobile UI is different from the desktop UI in a few key ways, causing some friction during onboarding, but I have no gripes at all about Harvest's functionality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Harvest solving and how is that benefiting you?

Creatives do not find time tracking useful or intuitive to do. Getting creatives to track their time accurately is a problem as old as time. Harvest is the best solution I've seen for getting creatives to track time because the product is so stupid easy to use. There's nothing to it. The top toolbar drop-down tracker is a killer feature that seems to remove friction from time-tracking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
