Harvest Alternative for Creative Agencies
Harvest records creative hours, but it doesn't manage creative projects, handle client proofing, or support the full agency workflow. AgencyPro gives creative agencies everything they need — including excellent time tracking — in one integrated platform.
Why Creative Agencies Struggle with Harvest
Harvest is just a timer — no creative project management, proofing, or workflow tools
Creative agencies need Harvest + Asana + InVision + QuickBooks + Dropbox to operate
Time data disconnected from project phases, revision rounds, and profitability analysis
No client-facing features for creative review, approval, or project visibility
Why Creative Agencies Switch to AgencyPro
Creative Workflows + Tracking
Time tracking natively integrated with creative project phases, proofing workflows, and revision management. See time per creative phase, per discipline, per project.
Replace 5 Tools
Projects, time tracking, proofing, invoicing, and client communication in one platform. Eliminate the Harvest-led tool stack entirely.
Client Creative Portal
Branded portals where clients review creative work, approve deliverables, and track project progress alongside their billing.
True Profitability
Time tracking connected to team costs and client billing. See real creative project margins without spreadsheet reconciliation.
Key Features for Creative Agencies
Creative Time Tracking

Creative Projects
Phased projects with brief intake, concepting, execution, review, and delivery workflows.
Client Proofing

“What has made my experience with AgencyPro great is how thoughtfully the whole platform is put together. It replaces the patchwork of tools we used to rely on with one cohesive system.”

Frequently Asked Questions
Will I miss Harvest's time tracking in AgencyPro?
No. AgencyPro provides the same tracking quality — timers, manual entry, timesheets — with the added benefit of native integration with project phases, retainer management, and invoicing. Most creative agencies find the integrated experience significantly more efficient.
Can I track time by creative discipline?
Yes. Track time tagged to specific disciplines (design, copywriting, photography, video) for each project. This enables profitability analysis by discipline and helps improve future project estimates.
How many tools can AgencyPro replace?
For most creative agencies, AgencyPro replaces Harvest (time tracking), Asana (projects), InVision (proofing), QuickBooks (invoicing), and Dropbox (file sharing) — typically 4-5 separate tools consolidated into one platform.
Is the switch from Harvest to AgencyPro easy?
Yes. Export Harvest data, import into AgencyPro, set up creative templates and billing. Most creative agencies are fully operational within a week.
