Tailoring time tracking for Togetherwork’s complex operations

Togetherwork, a leader in software solutions for group management and payments, sought an enhanced time tracking system to support their complex operations across nine product lines. Tiffany Bellah, Director of Operations Enterprise Applications, recognized the need for a specialized solution that could ensure accurate, real-time tracking of billable hours across diverse teams.

While monday.com provided valuable project management capabilities, manual updates led to inefficiencies and delayed reporting. Bellah and her team explored alternatives and found that 7pace Timetracker for monday.com perfectly complemented monday.com, offering the flexibility and insights necessary to streamline workflows and empower employees to manage their time effectively without feeling micromanaged.

Empowering teams with flexible time tracking

After implementation, Togetherwork discovered 7pace Timetracker’s flexibility, allowing team members to log time in ways that suited their individual work preferences. This adaptability increased time logging consistency and enabled Togetherwork to streamline how data was fed into other areas of the company.

"We’ve got a lot of different needs, and that’s why we looked for something as flexible as 7pace. Whether employees prefer the weekly view, item cards, or update sections, they can choose the method that works best for them."
Tiffany Bellah, Director of Operations Enterprise Applications

Togetherwork's professional services and operations teams use 7pace to track time across multiple product lines. By setting up dashboards in monday.com linked to board columns, Bellah and her team could easily monitor time allocation for various applications and projects.

"I’ve got dashboards set up with connected board columns that make it easy to do a weekly data transfer of all time logs. Everything’s already set up in monday.com."
Tiffany Bellah, Director of Operations Enterprise Applications

The flexibility in viewing and logging time not only empowered employees but also allowed managers to gain better insights. Bellah noted that switching to the weekly or daily view helped her team move from a reactive mode to a more proactive approach.

“Rather than constantly reacting to our product lines' needs, I could look ahead and see what we had been working on. It’s allowed us to better plan and allocate time.”

Use cases: How Togetherwork leverages 7pace Timetracker

Togetherwork has found multiple innovative ways to use 7pace Timetracker across their organization, tailoring the tool to fit their unique needs and workflows. Tiffany Bellah and her team have taken full advantage of 7pace’s flexibility and powerful integration with monday.com to streamline processes, track project time, and improve overall efficiency. Here are some key use cases:

Time blocking with my time calendar view: Togetherwork’s team uses the "My Time" calendar view to plan and block out their weekly workload. This feature allows them to stay organized and focus on what needs to be completed each week, ensuring better time management and task prioritization.
Flexible time logging and editing: The team appreciates the ability to click and drag time logs or items live on various boards. They can also edit time directly in the updates section, which makes tracking and managing time more intuitive and responsive to their workflow. This flexibility encourages consistent time logging and reduces friction in day-to-day operations.
Comprehensive dashboard integration: Using 7pace’s All Times board, Bellah’s team can quickly filter and push time logs to different boards, utilizing the match function to mirror data points. This setup allows them to populate dashboards with real-time data for project tracking and status updates, offering a clear, up-to-date view of where time is being spent.
Business case development: With data from a three-month period of time tracking, Tiffany was able to build a compelling business case for adding an additional headcount. The detailed categorization of tasks and time spent across projects demonstrated the team’s workload and justified the need for more support, making a direct impact on resource allocation within the organization.
Post-Project reporting: After each project, Tiffany’s team can share exactly how time was spent, providing valuable insights to various product lines within Togetherwork. This transparency has been eye-opening, giving product teams a better understanding of the work being done and helping them to plan future projects more effectively.
