Crisply Company Profile  

• Description of products or services

Professional services firms need time tracking to bill time, and product companies need time tracking to allocate project costs and keep their finger on the pulse of progress. But, everyone hates tracking time! We have yet to meet someone who does not despise timesheets. Time trackers do not like to recount what they have done, because they struggle with being accurate and it takes time away from doing work. Managers want to keep their fingers on the pulse of progress, but they know that timesheets are fiction and kill culture. Thousands of companies need a time tracking system for billing and project tracking. We have been developing a revolutionary new product since early 2010.

Crisply organically captures progress to make everyone’s weekly timesheet submission more accurate in a fraction of the time. Crisply is a new SaaS product that provides applications for time tracking, project portfolio management, billing & analytics and we are looking for early adopters to participate in the Crisply Early Access Program: http://crisply.com/beta . Crisply is production quality and is being used by companies today. It would be fantastic to have Connecticut companies join the time tracking revolution.

Time tracking has been done the same way for the past 2,000 years. From paper to spreadsheets to modern web applications, they are all essentially the same thing. Crisply shifts the paradigm for time tracking and transforms it to an organic process. When we demonstrate Crisply, most people are blown away and want to adopt it as soon as possible.
