Cheri703 | Question for my independent contractor comrades: is there a preferred way of tracking/billing/invoicing time? Ideally something android based/integrated? | 16:58 |
---|---|---|
nigelb | Cheri703: Have you looked at FreshBooks? | 17:18 |
nigelb | It's pretty good. I don't know if they have a mobile ap. | 17:19 |
nigelb | *app | 17:19 |
nigelb | They seem to have an iPhone app and no android app :( | 17:22 |
Cheri703 | hmm...ok. I will just need something fairly basic "I worked x hours at agreed upon $x, pay me" | 17:23 |
nigelb | let me check of zoho has something for it. | 17:24 |
nigelb | Cheri703: Check out zoho books. | 17:29 |
nigelb | The only problem with zoho books is you can't take your data out. | 17:29 |
Cheri703 | ok | 17:36 |
Cheri703 | :s | 17:36 |
Cheri703 | that's not so great | 17:36 |
* Cheri703 was helping husband with his new phone too :) | 17:36 | |
nigelb | Yeah. "CLoud" services aren't great :( | 17:37 |
nigelb | These are times when I just use google docs. | 17:37 |
nigelb | Or excel + dropbox. | 17:37 |
Cheri703 | yeah, found a time tracker that exports .csv and straight into google docs if I want | 17:37 |
Cheri703 | which is awesome, but need to figure out how to send invoices | 17:37 |
Cheri703 | (as an aside, I am finding AWESOME stuff for my new phone, I have a lot more options now that I have a phone powerful enough for widgets and such | 17:38 |
Cheri703 | ) | 17:38 |
JanC | there are several time trackers in the repositories AFAIK (although I never used them) | 18:10 |
JanC | but some of them might have android versions / additions | 18:11 |
Cheri703 | taskcoach has a nice time tracker, but unless they recently changed their mind, no android app (/me goes to check) | 18:21 |
Cheri703 | nope :/ | 18:21 |
=== JanC_ is now known as JanC | ||
JanC | I guess the android (or other smartphone) part should only register time/task, while the desktop part should do the aggregation & possibly the invoice part | 18:39 |
