Here’s 7 reasons why Streamtime is a great alternative to Basecamp

Two months down in 2017 already — time is flying! Now that the new year has well and truly calmed down, it’s a perfect time to look for a new tool to get organised.

We know you may have heard of Basecamp, but here are seven reasons why Streamtime might be a better alternative.

1. One To-Do list.

In Streamtime we think it’s key not to have to go searching for what you need To Do. You shouldn’t have to go searching job by job. We have one, award-winning designed To Do screen that shows you a list of all your tasks. Easily click and drag your scheduled tasks or just create a brand new one straight from the screen.

Not only does it allow you to plan your week, it also intuitively tracks your time. Your managers will love you. If you’re a pretty accurate planner and you hit your estimates, just drag it down to Done to add your time. Took a bit longer? Adjust the time used and drop into Done. Organising yourself has never been this easy.

2. Plan your job and quote simultaneously

Create your jobs with planned hours per task and by user. Give yourself a nice, easily viewed, plan to work towards. With an easy plan you can then track how long things took and get your quoting spot on. Don’t lose any money you deserve.

Once your plan is in place, simply hit create Quote to generate and send it off. Absolutely no disconnect and no need to create anything else. It’s all ready there.

3. Have a good look at what your team is doing

Give us great design over text heavy screens every day of the week.

Quickly and easily see what has gone over budget, what’s finished and what needs your attention. The Team Schedule also allows you to visually see how the team is getting on with the work they have been assigned.

4. Facts and Figures, but not the boring way

Forward thinking project reporting is here. Our preset segments, allow you to see your work in progress, time spent by week or month, items over budget or expenses for the month at the touch of a button. Want more specifics? No worries, we have a range of filters to choose from. Streamtime has straightforward analytics you can hang your cap on.

5. Create and send invoices

Create your very own invoices straight from your job, or time and expenses used. Sending it straight from Streamtime allows you to quickly finalise and get your client to pay, hopefully. We allow you to track payment allowing you to see if the invoices are paid or if you’re kept waiting.

If you are using Xero, then you can easily copy it over to do all of your accounting needs 👍. Simply connect once, then copy the final invoice over. Time for a beer.

6. Set up those weekly To Do’s with Zapier.

With Zapier you can create recurring To Do’s to cut back admin time. Have a WIP meeting every Thursday? Just set a To Do to appear so you never miss one.
