Key Benefits for IT Firms
Track Ticket Resolution Time by Priority
Monitor hours spent on each support ticket from initial triage through resolution, categorized by priority level. Optimize SLA performance, identify recurring issues that consume disproportionate time, and staff support tiers appropriately.
Measure Proactive vs Reactive Support
Separate scheduled maintenance, monitoring, patch management, and system updates from emergency troubleshooting and break-fix work. Demonstrate the value of managed IT services over ad-hoc support billing with clear time data.
Monitor On-Site vs Remote Support Time
Capture travel time, on-site work, and remote support sessions separately. Accurately price field service calls and justify on-site premium rates with transparent time records that show the full effort involved.
Quantify Infrastructure Project Hours
Record time spent on network upgrades, server migrations, cloud deployments, and security implementations as distinct from daily support. Scope and bill IT projects separately from ongoing managed service retainers.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do we track time for IT support tickets that span multiple days?
Create ticket-based time entries that can span multiple days, with the ability to pause and resume timers as work progresses. The system aggregates all time spent on a ticket, including research, troubleshooting, and resolution time, ensuring all support hours are captured and billed correctly.
Can we track time separately for retainer clients vs project-based IT work?
Yes, you can set up different billing rules for retainer clients (monthly hour allocations) versus project-based work (fixed scope tracking). The system automatically alerts you when retainer hours are running low and helps you track time against project budgets for project-based clients.
How do we handle time tracking for emergency IT support that happens after hours?
Quick-entry timers allow instant time logging for urgent situations, and you can set up different billing rates for after-hours or emergency work. The mobile app ensures you can track time even when providing remote support from your phone outside normal business hours.
What about tracking time for IT maintenance and proactive monitoring?
Create separate categories for proactive maintenance, monitoring, and system updates versus reactive support work. Many IT agencies include some maintenance in retainer packages, but tracking this time separately helps you understand the true cost of IT services and adjust pricing accordingly.
