Why teams are looking for alternatives to Harvest time tracking app?
Harvest is a powerful time tracking tool with a simple and efficient interface, but it lacks key features that modern teams need. Here is why teams are switching:
- Lack of project tracking features – Harvest excels as an invoicing and time tracking tool, but lacks advanced project management tools like task dependencies, Gantt charts, Kanban boards, or detailed workflows.
- No built-in resource management – You can track time spent against tasks, but can’t manage those tasks, assign subtasks, or create detailed project hierarchies within Harvest.
- Basic reporting capabilities – While Harvest has decent time and expense reporting features, it lacks deeper analytics like project profitability at the task level, resource forecasting, or custom dashboards.
- Scalability challenges – Larger and remote teams that need advanced user permission settings, cross-project views, or internal team collaboration tools may struggle with Harvest’s simplicity.
- Cost vs. value – Some users feel that Harvest becomes expensive once additional tools are required to fill the gaps (e.g., Asana + Harvest + Invoicing = multiple subscriptions). All-in-one platforms like ProWorkflow offer better value.
- Dependence on integrations – Harvest relies heavily on third-party tools for features like task management, quoting, file sharing, and CRM.
Why teams choose ProWorkflow over Harvest?
ProWorkflow is the Harvest app alternative for teams seeking a centralized system to manage multiple projects and tasks, track time, oversee client billing, and review project budgets without juggling through different paid tools.
All-in-one project & task management
ProWorkflow offers full project management functionality, including dependencies, priorities, file attachments, notes, and more advanced features, so you don’t need to jump between different work management solutions.
Task-level profitability & expense tracking
With ProWorkflow, you can track time, costs, labor, and profit margins per task and project. Harvest focuses more on time-based billing alone, while offering limited insight into profitability or budget tracking.

Client access & collaboration
Harvest doesn’t offer built-in client collaboration features for managing projects, only providing invoice views or reports. In contrast, ProWorkflow includes free client logins, enabling clients to view projects, approve quotes, and communicate with team members directly.
Gantt charts & timeline views
Harvest’s project management software has no built-in timeline visualization, instead requiring integration with other project planning apps. ProWorkflow includes Gantt charts, calendar views, and detailed scheduling tools so project managers can always monitor team capacity.
