Migrate from Timely in 15–20 minutes
Step 1: Export your Timely time entries for reference
Download a report of your tracked hours from Timely covering recent periods. Use this as a reference to verify totals — you will not import it directly into Teetrack.
Step 2: Set up clients, projects, and rates in Teetrack
Create your client list, project names, currencies, and hourly rates. Set billing rates per project so tracked time rolls up correctly for export to your billing tool.
Step 3: Connect your calendar and review drafts
Connect Google Calendar, Outlook, or an iCal feed. Teetrack imports events as draft entries — you confirm, edit, or dismiss each one before it becomes a record. Timely adds iCal; Teetrack already has it.
Step 4: Track a real week and compare totals
Run Teetrack alongside Timely for one period. Calendar draft review takes a moment each day but gives you full control over what counts as billable. When totals match your expectations, cancel Timely.
