From losing 20% of billable time to capturing every client interaction. Revenue up $52K per quarter.

We were hemorrhaging billable hours—consultants forgot to log client calls, research time, and deliverable prep work. It all added up to 20% revenue leakage. Everhour made tracking effortless. Now our team logs time immediately after each activity, right from their project management tools. After implementing Everhour, our billable hours increased 25% in Q1—not because people worked more, but because we finally tracked everything. The firm recovered $52K that quarter from time we would have previously lost, and our utilization rates jumped from 65% to 83%.

Questions? We Have Answers

Here is a list of the most frequently asked questions.

How does Everhour help professional services firms track client hours?

Track time on consulting engagements, advisory services, client meetings, and deliverable work. Set different billing rates per consultant or service type, mark time as billable or non-billable, and export to invoicing tools.

Can we track time across multiple client projects simultaneously?

Yes. Organize unlimited clients and projects with clear hierarchies. Track time across multiple engagements, switch between projects easily, and see real-time allocation across your portfolio.

How do we prevent project budget overruns?

Set time and cost budgets for each engagement. Receive automatic email alerts when you hit 75%, 90%, or 100% of budget. This gives you time to adjust scope or have client conversations before burning through margins.

Can we set different billing rates for different consultants or services?

Yes. Set custom billing rates per consultant (e.g., partner at $400/hr, senior consultant at $250/hr), per service type (strategy vs implementation), or per project. Track profitability by engagement and consultant.

How does Everhour help with client invoicing?

Generate detailed invoices showing time entries, service descriptions, billing rates, and total amounts. Export to QuickBooks, Xero, or your accounting system. Create professional client-facing reports with time breakdowns.

Can we track billable vs non-billable time separately?

Yes. Mark time entries as billable or non-billable. See utilization rates, billable hour targets, and profitability by consultant and project. Identify where non-billable time goes.

How do we monitor consultant utilization and capacity?

Set billable hour targets per consultant. See real-time progress, identify who's under or over capacity, and balance project assignments to optimize resource allocation and profitability.

How long does setup take for a professional services firm?

Most firms are tracking within 30 minutes. Set up clients and projects, configure billing rates, invite consultants, and start tracking. Many firms recover billable hours in the first week.

Will consultants actually use time tracking software?

Yes. Since Everhour integrates with tools consultants already use (Asana, ClickUp, Monday), they can track time without disrupting their workflow. Most firms achieve 90%+ adoption within two weeks.

Is there a free trial for professional services firms?

Yes. Everhour offers a 14-day free trial with full access to all features. No credit card required. Most firms recover enough billable hours in the first month to pay for the software for the year.
