European alternatives to Harvest

Track hours and bill clients from Europe

Harvest is a time tracking application from the United States aimed at teams that bill their hours. Alongside timers and timesheets it handles billable rates, budgets per project, expense capture and invoicing, so tracked time turns directly into an invoice for the client. It has apps for Mac, Windows, iOS and Android and connects to common accounting and project tools.

Once billing rides on your time data, the tool holds client names, contract values and staff hours together in one place, which brings both privacy rules and commercial confidentiality into the choice of supplier. A European alternative to Harvest keeps that with an EU or EFTA vendor. Toggl Track and Timely cover tracking and reporting for teams, Timeneye ties time to projects, and solidtime is an open option for teams that want to run it themselves.

Questions

Can I still invoice from the tool?

Invoicing is not standard in every time tracker, so check it explicitly. Toggl Track and Timeneye document their billing and export features, and many teams export hours into their existing accounting software instead.

How do I move historical time entries?

Harvest exports timesheets as CSV, and most tools here can import entries or at least projects and clients. Keep the original export as your archive for past invoices.

Which European alternative is closest to Harvest?

Toggl Track is the nearest for team tracking with rates and reporting, and Timely suits teams that want automatic capture of what was worked on. Compare how each handles budgets per project, since that is often the deciding feature.
