App roundup: Timekeeping and billing

When I started freelancing last November, I knew I needed to get my act together about billing. I have a love/hate relationship with billing: I love getting paid, but I hate doing billing.

Thankfully, there are many, many apps that help you do this. If you're just starting out, you might be a little overwhelmed at just how many ways there are to track your time. This little post here isn't meant to be a comprehensive list, but instead a place for freelancers to start looking for a small-scale billing solution that works best for them.

Follow me for a look at a handful of apps and services that will help you keep your time tracking and invoicing in line:

Video: Billable, keep track of your hours


Mike Zornek, owner of Clickable Bliss shows us Billable, a handy app for tracking freelance gigs or other hourly projects. Billable will do more than tracking though, so watch the video to see a really neat app from another indie Mac developer.

Billable 1.1



Clickable Bliss recently took the wraps off of Billable 1.1, a nice update to their billable hours tracking app. New in this update:
  • Tax support (both US and International)
  • Custom Invoice numbering
  • New footer area for customizable notes
  • Many bugs smashed
There is even a nice screencast that walks you through all the new features (something I wish more developers would do). All in all, not a bad update at all. Billable costs $24.95, and there is a 30 day full feature demo available.

Billable 1.0



If you need to track billable hours and you want to do it using a client with clear UI, then Billable is for you. Clickable Bliss' first product lets you keep track of clients, has a built in timer to keep track of your time (duh), and support for different billable rates per client. It can also create PDF invoices with your information already filled in.

Until October 31st you can get Billable for $19.95 (after that it goes up to $24.95), and there is a 30 demo available.

Still not convinced? Check out the screencast.
