Case Study: Obopay achieves accurate project cost forecasting and streamlined time tracking with Replicon

Mobile Payment Pioneers Take the Guesswork Out of Project Costs

Obopay, a mobile-payments pioneer partnering with firms like MasterCard and Nokia, grew rapidly after its 2005 launch to more than 260 employees and 100 contractors across the U.S. and India. The company had no formal time-tracking system—relying on a project manager’s estimates—which left it unable to provide accurate project costs for auditors or bill clients precisely, creating a pressing need for centralized, reliable time and cost tracking.

Obopay implemented Replicon’s SaaS Web TimeSheet solution (TimeAttend, TimeCost, Expense) to give staff a single web-based timesheet accessible worldwide. With minimal training and scalable licensing (from 40 to over 310 users), the system delivered project-level visibility, compliant accounting data, accurate client billing, side-by-side U.S./India cost comparisons, customizable reports, and improved forecasting for future projects.
