FAQs

What improvements will Time Capture offer over standard time recording software?

Widely, the key advantages you will gain are accessibility and functionality.

Firstly, cloud accessibility ensures users can record their time from any location, on any device. Wherever your fee earners are, whatever time they are working, SmartTimers are instantly available to capture the time used to progress matters. The ability to perform time keeping tasks so easily is a vital component of our solution.

Time Capture also incorporates multiple functional benefits that have never been replicated in standard time recording software. These include missed time finders, digital footprint tracking, validations, predictive assistance, and alternative time recording methods. All this innovative functionality works in tandem to boost time keeping capability across your firm.
Will OneAdvanced Time Capture connect to our billing system?

Being built on an extendable platform, and offering an API first approach, allows fast and seamless integration with other solutions at your firm. This could include hosting Time Capture within your document management system, importing fee earner’s annual leave from your HR system, or the real-time export of time data to your accounting system. This increases the value of your investment by offering greater efficiency, smoother workflow, and cost savings.
How will Time Capture improve our bottom line?

The most obvious answer is that higher levels of billable time equates directly to higher revenue – but there are additional factors to consider.

Because it’s a cloud product, you are assured that you’re on the latest version, and will be upgraded automatically on every new release. As all upgrades are included in your subscription cost, so additional, sometimes unexpected, charges are no longer a consideration.

You’ll also eliminate the ongoing costs associated with running, maintaining and managing on-premise software. Cloud data storage means there’s no need to invest in additional hardware as your firm grows, and you won’t have to worry about expensive system backups either. In summary, your outgoings for IT resources, physical space, and other associated costs will no longer be applicable.

Perhaps most importantly, validated time entries mean that lawyers and finance teams spend significantly less time sorting out errors that result from time capture errors. You firm will be able to produce detailed invoices that display the time used on each matter, leading to a reduction in client queries, a shorter bill to payment cycle, and improved realisation rates.
