Avaza really makes it easy to set up project, log hours, but also check off set tasks and subtasks at the same time - the software integrates task management and time logging which greatly advantages employees in the planning stages, but also in the logging of tasks for timesheet purposes. Really saves time!
Small things, such as needing to go into existing tasks when in the timesheet screen, can sometimes waste time - an 'add task' functions within the timesheet tab would be great!
As above, Avaza has greatly improved our team's capacity to plan our projects, and to also see every individual's progress with regards to tasks and subtasks within these.
It's simplistic design gives you a good user experience and being able to copy previous weeks entries help me save some time.
There is nothing really to dislike, however, while copying the previous week's or day's entries, it should also allow to copy the remarks as well because many a times your description of work is same between days and weeks.
It captures your time distribution across your activities which helps in productivity and other KPI assessments. It also allows you to streamline your expense management
I think I like the clean UI the best. It’s simple to navigate, you can see all the tasks by the various departments in your team, and to be able to mark whether your done or in progress of a task easily. Everything is just there for you.
Nothing much really, maybe being able to see some of your co workers names on tasks, but other then that, it has been delightful!
Having your team organised. I realised with task management platforms like Avaza, it allows employees to see what is going on within their own groups, but to be also able to see what is going on with others, and thus everyone is able to take ownership and responsibility.
The simple interface, it allows me to manage the task quickly.
Actually there is nothing I particularly dislike
I handle my team task, assigning to several colleagues and see how much a single task costs to the company.
Easy to submit expenses as the week goes along without having to submit everything at one time.
I would like to the ability to copy previous week time to current week in one click
Easy to approve.
I did a lot of research to find a service that would allow me to simply keep track of my freelance hours and create invoices automatically and Avaza does that really well and it's easy to figure out and use. I like that I can enter hours manually but also track in real time if I want. The free version has all the features I need right now too and the invoices it creates are nice and simple and I can also put my own logo in there too.
Could be a little more intuitive in putting times into a timesheet/tasks - but I am still figuring out the best work flow so it may just take time to get the hang of it.
Helps me keep track of my freelance invoices and will be really helpful to have all in one place come tax season! Can create reports as well so you can see a big picture of time and projects etc.
We love that it's a cloud based program. We had to run our previous solution on our network via software that required expensive updates. Now we are always updated :) It's pretty easy to use. It's not overflowing with bulk features that most people don't need and at the same time it's got a lot of features the other products we demoed didn't have. We chose this over Harvest, Bigtime, Paydirt, and eBility.
There are a few downsides. I'd like to be able to see my timesheet by month instead of just day or week. Also, it would be nice to have a way to change the default billing method for all projects. However, the support is super helpful and is actually interested in feedback, so hopefully those are features that will get incorporated.
We were looking for a replacement for our billing program, but this ended replacing our billing program and our project management program. We used Asana previously, which is awesome, but Avaza is very similar and intuitive. Making the switch from Asana to Avaza cuts down on having to duplicate the info into a separate billing system.
Features like Kanban view, Recurring Tasks, etc are very useful and not found in many other project management systems.
Needs a bit of UX/UI polish still, lack of ability to re-order subtasks, nowhere to pin important project documents outside of the tasks themselves. Reports can't be modified and re-saved; you have to create new ones.
We needed a less expensive project management system for our team that allowed some UI flexibility for our team members - ie. Our Content Creators + Kanban. We needed the ability to track time and budgets. Avaza seems to be doing all of that pretty well.
It's so simple! I've been searching for the right project management software for months and finally found my answer in Avaza. It's never glitchy like others I've tried have been. It's reliable, clean looking, not overly complicated, and easy to set up and learn. I used Apptivo before that had many excellent features, but Apptivo was always having technical issues and glitches that they couldn't seem to fix and it was so complicated and time-consuming to set up. Avaza was the complete opposite and hardly took any time.
I wish you had the ability to view tasks in a calendar layout, schedule events/appointments associated with projects, and integrate easily with Outlook Calendar. I also wish you could make sub-tasks that you could schedule like regular tasks. However, everything else makes up for these little inconveniences.
Seeing my projects all in one place, daily tasks and workload; time tracking; invoicing -- all in one place. I'm saving a lot more time and being more productive than I ever thought. I thought it would be difficult to set up and use for a solopreneur and freelancer such as myself but it works perfectly.
Avaza had all the components we needed with good functionality. There were few good project management & collaboration tools with time tracking and invoicing at the price of this product.
Project management functions could be better. There small bells and whistles that are missing. I've not seen how/if the company will respond to feed back. There could be more functionality to write proposals that tie to a quote. Currently you can attach a proposal but the client would see the quote before reading he proposal which is not ideal.
We needed a way to manage clients, proposals, and accounts receivable in addition to a project management and collaboration tool. Avaza offered each of these functions with reasonable functionality and aesthetics. It had the added benefit of giving us some ability to understand the true resources being allocated to the work we do.
I like the clean, simple layout and the ease of use. I also like the option to time your projects so you don't have to keep track of your time manually.
I don't really dislike anything about Avaza. I have only been using it for a couple of days so far, but it seems like a great site for keeping track of projects, time, and expenses.
The company I work for uses Avaza to keep track of time spent on projects as well as expenses charged to our clients. It really helps us keep track of how much time is spent on each project, and it helps us manage our time better as well. It makes it very easy to see exactly where our time is going throughout the day and how we can better manage our time for our projects.
Resource-management, Timemanagement, Time-sheets and Task-management all in one. Competitors often support only 3 out of those 4 requirements, that's why we chose Avaza and we like it.
The Team-Schedule should be exportable to Outlook. The template for invoices could be nicer or it should be possible to Export the important data for an invoice into our own Word-Template.
Resource-management, Timemanagement, Time-sheets and Task-management
The team schedule is a great feature for a quick snapshot of what everyone's working on during the week.
The task naming/section naming functions can be a little clumsy. i.e. if you want to log time for a task you have to search for the name of the task and cannot see which project its associated with.
Better time management and ability to distribute work evenly.
Very easy to use, you can get up and running a few minutes after setup. Clear and uncluttered GUI that is very helpful especially when there are several projects running at once.
Few customization options, like column views and invoice layout. I also recommend adding an activities feed section for faster overview of current activities.
Helps streamline business processes.
Simple and clean interface to approve time-sheet. Customer support is great and timely as well.
The inability to recall erroneous approvals without the assistance of emailing/calling customer support.
Ease of approving employee timesheet.
It's a clean interface that is simple to learn.
The "projects" field in each task is too limited vertically - it's a little hard to scroll up & down to see the options.
Right now, I'm only tracking time with Avaza. It's quicker than our previous online software, so the time savings are the best benefits so far.
I like that I can time myself when I start and finish a task allowing me to see in real time how long it has actually taken to complete a task
I dislike that I cannot add bulk time off such as bank holidays to the teams schedule.
Currently I am finding it helping with time management and billable time
Timesheets are linked to tasks, ease of pulling reports. For the most part, easy to navigate and to add/browse tasks.
Disjointed and discontinuous interface - for example, multiple entrypoints into features like timesheets make the interface overwhelming.
We have used Avaza to successfully decentralise our budget tracking, letting anyone who tracks their time on tickets to link that to our budgets.
We have had Avaza for a couple of months now and have found it very easy to use and navigate through. The online chat support has been quick to respond and very helpful as well.
We are hoping this can eventually integrate with our Great Plains software. I believe it only works with Quick Books currently.
Production tracking is the main benefit for us. It has saved us time in communicating progress updates and instead we are able to focus on new projects and ideas.
Mobile friendly, easy to use and amazing customer support.
Would like a white label version to fully integrate it into our company.
Managing estimates, invoices and projects.
Its simple and easy to use, I can preview reports easily
Entering time can be tricky, using the . or , sometimes I put wrong time ...
Easy to track time and see reports
It carries consistency of features across all platforms.. much like a well-build web-wrapper for mobile, desktop, etc.
Sometimes the number of features can be daunting, but if you need them you must learn to use them regardless.
We've solved the need to ensure we track business expenses and keep abreast of hours worked towards specific projects.
As a startup, we appreciated the ability to accomplish multiple functions in one software.
Invoices can be viewed, but we would like the ability to see invoices that were billed to a project under the project itself. Or at least the ability to filter invoices by a particular project. Also something that shows the total number of hours used on an entire project, not just on a task level.
Avaza allows us to track time/tasks on a project, and bill clients directly from one software.
Friendly interface, project management and time tracking
The app need to improve on performance and interface UI
I'm doing my freelance works and in comparison with trello, asana and others it's the best. My productivity augmented 100%
Integrates projects, tasks, budgets and billing into a single application
Initially, it's a little tricky to figure out how to use it.
Project management, execution and monitoring
Having evaluated several project management, time tracking and billing platforms, Avaza seems to have the most user-friendly interface and best feature set for the money. Support from the team has been prompt and excellent and we are having no trouble getting up and running.
There are a few key features missing that we look forward to seeing released in the near future such as Gantt charts and start/end times for timesheet entries (as opposed to just a block of time with no specific start and end point).
Keeping better track of active projects and their budgets, and reducing email clutter are key wins already for us. I'm sure we'll see more great results as we get more familiar with the system.
Es muy facil de usar, y simplifica nuestras operaciones de facturaciòn y cobranzas.
A veces se cuelga el sistema cuando usamos el Time Sheet
Resolviò seguimiento de Facturaciòn y Cobranzas Analisis de la productividad de nuestros empleados
Sabes cuanto tiempo has trabajado en cada proyecto.
No te genera facturas para efectos fiscales en México.
Buena administración de las horas facturables a clientes de acuerdo al tiempo invertido en los proyectos.
As a business owner I have been impressed with the system and its ability to provide time-sheeting, expense tracking and invoicing functionalities (in addition to detailed reporting). Highly recommended
The system is only in English, which is a problem for full scale operation of the system within my organisation
The system has helped to provide greater efficiency and transparency to operations.
Me ayuda a organizar mejor mis tiempos y las actividades que realizo
la interfaz gráfica de la aplicación es muy plana.
me ha permitido tener claro los tiempos que gasto en cada actividad
