Designed for anyone working on a time-for-money basis, Project Monitor is an easy to use time-tracking and analysis application.

- Record your working day retrospectively or in real time, categorizing tasks according to client, project and activity

- Keep track of your customers and contacts

- Print weekly or fortnightly timesheets

- Compare actual times with project estimates using flexible filtering options

- Generate detailed or summarized reports based on your filtered data

- Export your filtered data to a text file then manipulate or extend it with an external tool such as Excel

- Create customised queries and reports using Access, or any other tool which can connect to a Microsoft JET database.

By creating a hierarchy of clients, projects and activities when you first start Project Monitor, you can limit the combinations of client, project and activity youre able to assign times against to those youve defined.

Once youve created your hierarchy of clients, projects and activities, youre free to choose whether to record your work tasks in real time or enter them retrospectively.

With its flexible filtering options, Project Monitor is an invaluable tool when analyzing time spent on particular tasks over the course of a project, allowing detailed comparison of actual times with project estimates.

Weekly or fortnightly timesheets can be generated with a few mouse clicks. Other reporting options allow you to print detailed or summarized reports displaying times recorded against the hierarchy of clients, projects and activities youve created.

Should you wish to work with your times independently of Project Monitor, the ability to export your times to a text file gives you the freedom to manipulate or extend your data with an external tool such as Excel.
