Patrycja Karpik
Marketing Manager, Bluerank
“The manager’s work time dedicated to planning has decreased by an average of 80 minutes per month, which makes 32 hours per month for the entire company, and that is a significant value.”
Why guesswork couldn’t price Bluerank’s projects
The need for time tracking arose from the challenge of estimating project durations and accurately assessing profitability. Before TimeCamp, Bluerank relied on subjective estimations with no standardized system.
