Case Study: AREA 17 achieves simpler time tracking and clearer reporting with Harvest

Interactive design agency AREA 17 checks Harvest reports to keep tabs on their business

AREA 17, an interdisciplinary interactive agency with offices in New York and Paris, needed a simpler way to manage time tracking, invoicing, and reporting after finding its previous tool overly complicated. The team wanted a solution that was easy to use, supported their project-based workflow, and helped them keep better visibility into project progress and profitability.

Harvest provided AREA 17 with an intuitive platform for time tracking, straightforward fixed-fee invoicing, and customizable reporting. As a result, the agency said time entry became easy, invoicing turned into a “well oiled machine,” and reporting improved clarity for both internal reviews and clients; the team also became more proactive, spotting issues earlier and improving profitability without sacrificing creativity.
