How we use TMetric

We discovered TMetric while searching for a time-tracking solution that could integrate seamlessly with our consulting workflows and help us accurately document billable hours. After comparing several tools, TMetric stood out for its clarity, ease of use, and real-time tracking features.

Like many service-based firms, we faced two key challenges:

1. Lack of detailed time logs per client/project: We needed a more effective way to track exactly what services were delivered and the amount of time spent on each engagement.
2. Billing transparency and internal productivity metrics: We wanted to ensure our clients had full visibility into what they were paying for, while also improving our own performance indicators.

TMetric allows us to:

• Track project hours based on the contracted work, creating a clear roadmap of deliverables.
• Document time spent on each task, making our billing process more accurate and transparent.
• Measure productivity across the team, identify time drains, and streamline operations.
• Keep everyone aligned, especially when working on complex, multi-disciplinary cases involving tax, audit, and compliance.

TMetric is not just a time-tracking tool for us - it's a strategic accountability ally.

Since using TMetric:

• We’ve reduced client billing disputes to virtually zero, thanks to clear time logs.
• Our team now spends more time delivering value and less time reporting it.

We love how intuitive and flexible the platform is. Every team member uses:

• Time tracking by project/client/task
• Reporting dashboards for billing
• Integration with other project management tools

TMetric gives us visibility and control, without slowing us down.

We are happy to recommend TMetric since it is ideal for professional services firms that want to balance transparency, profitability, and team performance. It’s simple enough for everyone to use daily, yet robust enough to scale with growing operational needs.

TMetric is the invisible partner that helps us work smarter, bill fairly, and grow with confidence.
