Yanomo - Time tracking, Invoicing and Project Management: Make your team count

Time tracking can take many forms including the finger in the air method and the pencil, paper and stop-watch routine. With modern technology being what it is however any business reliant on accurate time records for billing purposes is missing a trick by not signing up with one of the many sites providing just the right tools.

Yanomo uses a calendar based time tracking system which doubles up as a project management tool where to do lists can be synced with iCal and Google Calendar and circulated to any size of team.

Collaboration is a big part of Yanomo and team members can easily see what colleagues are up to as well as looking at the progress of projects, reviewing deadlines and seeing how well budgets are being adhered to.

Accurate time tracking leads to accurate invoicing and this system seamlessly takes this data, plus any other expense details, and creates professional looking invoices in seconds. These can be emailed to clients and reminder dates set should they become overdue and need additional chasing up.

From a business owners angle Yanomo provides a simple way for staff to stay on top of record keeping and project management without having to introduce a complicated system. Of course it also provides a good level of information for managers to check what time is being spent on any particular project and by whom, crucial information in a collaborative environment.

A free version is available for up to 3 users however this does not include the invoicing function.  To get this you’ll need the Small Biz package at $8 per user per month for up to 25 users.

Conclusion
Simple to use time tracking on a calendar interface with invoice and project management functions too. This app seems to have all of the basics covered nicely.
