Does tracking time put a burden on your software development organization?

Accurately tracking software development costs is critical for organizations required to perform software capitalization, track budgets or submit billing reports.

Unfortunately, most companies rely on external time tracking systems that require developers to perform "double-entry" of their hours or rely on their memory as they prepare their weekly timesheets.

Rally Time Tracker solves these problems by integrating time tracking directly into your software team's daily tools and processes, making timesheet reporting simple, accurate and fast.

There is nothing more essential than providing clear expectations to the management team when it comes to development, and a tool such as Rally’s Time Tracker enables us to do just that," said Rob Hamilton, CFO of Bridgevine. "By having specific visibility to all facets of a project, we can accurately plan and manage our iterations, which ultimately saves resources and delivers a better product."
