Time Tracking for Software Houses Billing Clients on Long-Running Contracts
Software Houses time tracking
Teetrack helps software houses track engineering hours across client contracts, monitor project budgets against delivery, and generate accurate invoices from logged time.
Why Software Houses struggle with time tracking
Engineers resist time tracking and logs are incomplete
Developers see time tracking as bureaucratic overhead. When the team fills in timesheets retroactively on Friday afternoon, the data is inaccurate and billing disputes follow. The tool needs to be lightweight enough that engineers actually use it.
Client contracts have different billing structures and none are easy to reconcile
Some clients pay by the hour, others have fixed budgets with change requests billed separately. Tracking time against multiple billing models in one system — without manual workarounds — is the gap most software houses fall into.
Team allocation across projects is invisible until someone is overbooked
When engineers work across multiple client projects, managers only find out about allocation problems when deadlines slip. Without seeing where hours are going week by week, resource planning is guesswork.
How Teetrack solves this
- Team allocation invisible across projects: Use the summary view to see how engineering hours are distributed across clients and projects. Spot overbooking and underutilization before they become delivery problems.
