Easy to implement & use, grows with our business, agile and always being improved
Streamtime has helped to revolutionise our business. It not only is a tool we use daily but integral to business development. We use it on an ongoing basis to fine tune what we do with respects to processes & procedures. It helps us be agile and can flex with our growth. Support is second to none too!
CONSIn all honesty there is nothing that I could comment about regarding cons. Streamtime has consistently delivered for us as a business and continues to develop to help both management, project managers, designers and the finance team!

Always improving
We've managed to vastly improve our studio booking system with this software. The reporting function is super versatile. Overall, always a great experience using!
PROSThe road map is amazing, and the team always listen to feedback on how to improve the software. Plus the design team love to use it!
CONSIt can be a bit buggy at times which slows things down.
Reason for choosing Streamtime
Seemed to do more than the others (invoicing, team management, timesheets, reporting). The others seemed to have more specific specialties and we needed something that did everything.
Reasons for switching to Streamtime
Slow and desktop based

The use as an account manager
It is a great tool for teams, easy to use and you are able to track the process from start to end.
PROSIt is easy to create new jobs, schedule team members and review project timings. Generating quotes and invoices its easy but still is missing features
CONSInvoicing and quoting - currently, it is not possible to spit the quote in different invoices i.e I want to set up a project to be paid 50% at the start and 50% upon completion. Currently, I have to divide each item depending on how much it is to be charged Gantt Chart - Ability to create a project timeline and share with clients directly from Streamtime would be awesome
Reasons for switching to Streamtime
We were using two software and wanted to consolidate into a single one

Makes my working day easier!!
Studio resourcing and availability (or lack of it) is much more visible to us than ever before. Invoicing is very quick, as are estimates and job plans. It works in a way which makes sense and doesn't require hours of training to grasp - love it!.
PROSWe were pretty much able to set this up and get it rolled out throughout the studio on our own - that is because it makes sense and it user-friendly. Having used a very complicated system that required hours of training prior to this, this is a massive breath of fresh air. My day to day work is more organised and scheduling work through the studio is easy and we have great visibility on resourcing for weeks to come.
CONSThe integration with Google Calendar could be a little better but I know the guys are looking into this, they seem to regularly update areas of the site so im confident this will improve.
Reason for choosing Streamtime
It looked easy to use, simple to understand, and the cost is great.
Reasons for switching to Streamtime
Because Paprika is awful and very expensive. It feels like it has been put together by someone very techy and it has not been translated into a user-friendly language which makes sense to most people. Its old fashioned and takes forever to do anything. Plus if you don't hit save you lose everything! It doesn't auto-save like ST!!

Design Agency & Streamtime
Intuitive and very easy to get the hang of, everything is in one place and it looks great too.
CONSI honestly cannot think of anything I dislike about the software.
Reason for choosing Streamtime
It made so much more sense to us in terms of the layout and the design itself. It wasn't plug-ins based and the support on offer from StreamTime made it an easy choice.
Reasons for switching to Streamtime
We were using a very old version of onsite hosted studio manager that was built onto filemaker, moving onto an online digital platform for ease of access when WFH along with enabling us to upgrade operating systems that were being held back by the version of filemaker we were using.

It takes our team to the next leve
Essentially we switched to Streamtime form a different platform in order to be able to better manage time and team allocation over a multitude of projects. So far it has helped, considering that the previous used platform only allowed us to log and track hours worked. We are still learning to use it to the fullest as different team members have different levels of proficiency & willingness to employ it (we've only been using it for 2 months).
PROS- ease of use ( essential for team to get on board and use it) - functionality - layout design which allows quick overview of project status
CONS- occasional bugs, however the software is constantly improving
Reason for choosing Streamtime
- interaction with Streamtime sales person in pre-sales moment - design
Reasons for switching to Streamtime
We needed more team allocation features and planning

Super Streamtime!
Our whole experience of using Streamtime has been a 100% positive one. From our initial introduction and onboarding to the great support, customer service and ongoing user experience, I can't fault it!
PROSThe 'To Do' approach to timekeeping is fantastic and so intuitive to use, along with all other areas of the site.
CONSNot much to dislike tbh! It would be great if in the future the mobile app could be developed to allow for a user experience that is similar to the desktop version.
Reasons for switching to Streamtime
Wanted to move to a cloud-based system and avoid ongoing issues around OS compatibility and enable more efficient remote access.

Streamtime has had a huge impact on our office management. It is incredibly easy to implement and use. we use all the features from quotation to invoicing, "to do" and we're now starting to create reports from jobs to inform future projects.
CONSIt would be good to easily fore cast future revenue, this can be done by setting up filters but can get a little fiddly. It would also be good to have / create more stages (rather than paused, in play, completed) inline with the RIBA Plan of Works. Again this can be done with labels but can get a little fiddly
Reason for choosing Streamtime
it was more oriented towards the design and construction sector, others appeared to be more generic and required much more set up

Great tool for helping productivity, planning and integration with Xero. Intuitive and simple.
Fits with the way a modern agency works and the Streamtime team have really listened and studied an agencies workflow. Streamtime is simple to use and is really helping us manage our costs and time without it getting in the way. The software has been embraced by project managers and designers and is a seamless resource for ensuring everyone knows what they have to get done. Quotes and invoicing are logically structured, well designed and can be emailed directly to clients for approval.

The best software I've ever used
Not only is the software fantastic and looks beautiful - the best looking software I've ever used, I really like the tone of voice they use in the software interaction. Their support is excellent, not only is their knowledge base full of excellent support notes and videos, but when you have a question their team are knowledgable and really helpful. And above all friendly and I always get someone I know responding. Can't fault my experience. They offer regular webinars, updates and blogs/papers to ensure we are getting the most from the system. Would recommend Streamtime to anyone running a marketing/creative agency.
PROSIt's a beautiful piece of software that is very easy and intuitive to use. Once you've got the system set-up with your company's details and that of your clients, which in itself is a breeze, creating and planning jobs is easy. Adding time, expenses and materials is done easily then converting to quotes or invoices is completed without duplication of effort. It saves 90% of my time compared to my old system (Word documents) and I present my company so professionally now. I used Streamtime Classic for 11.5 years, which was a great system in itself but have recently changed to Streamtime in the cloud which is fantastic as it's contemporary, always up to date and I can access it from anywhere on top of all the other benefits.
CONSAbsolutely nothing I would change with Streamtime.
Reason for choosing Streamtime
The sales team came up from London to see us in Cheshire (almost 12 years ago now), they were friendly, knowledgable and not pushy. We really liked Streamtime Classic and it offered everything we needed and made us look really professional while being easy to use. When we moved over to the cloud version they made it so easy - they set-up an account for me as the administrator so everything was done for me, they let me keep my Classic subscription for free as reference and gave me all the support I needed.

Wouldn't be without it.
Have been with them from before the inception of this platform, on their last one and this has been a fantastic journey to see how they have built it from the ground up with customers in mind. Just love it and would be lost without it.
PROSThe most impactful feature of this software is it's ease of use. I can work from the to do list which feeds directly into the job. I can drag and drop tasks as and when they need to be rejigged around task and job changes. And it's satisfying to get little encouragement animations when I've cleared tasks successfully.
CONSI would like to be able to schedule when invoices are sent out. But I bet if I actually shared that with them, they would add it to their list of updates because they are brilliant at the support side of things too.

Powerful features for budgeting and scheduling, worth the change!
I work in digital and am very conscious of user experience; StreamTime has made a bold move on the user interface and I think it's worth it! I really enjoy using it and haven't had any major issues with it. Without fail we use it every day to schedule developers and report on budgets against project progress.
PROSVery easy to manage your own and others ToDo lists, great project progress to budget, scheduling task in advance. The StreamTime team are very active with new product improvements, good communication and surveying of users to keep the product updated and in line with our expectations.
CONSIt's my employers choice to use the software and I can see benefits and powerful features for budgeting and scheduling that we couldn't find in other systems. The dislike are minimal once you're over the learning curve; it's a very unique user interface compared to other similar products and some might find that a hurdle.

Awesome product, highly recommend it
Easy to use and follow
PROSRunning a design team means that we need to be really good at planning, tracking and reporting on projects. I was looking for something really good at doing this and spent a good few months and lots of free trials on other software. From the start, Streamtime felt like a great fit for our business. A well structured and elegantly simple layout made it easy to get started. As we started to use it we then discovered that there were lots of additional features that made it possible to do all of things that happen when projects change. Its obvious that there has been alot of thinking behind Streamtime that makes it very useable with real world projects. On top of this there is a sense of fun and good humour in the software that helps make it enjoyable when you are using everyday.
CONSI don't have a long list of things that I like the least about the software. I would like to see more integrations.

Never lose track of your valuable creative time.
Personal approach and quick response.
PROSIts the easiest way to log your time as a creative person. Love the way you can drag and drop. Plus edit time as you go. Best way to see where all of those 15 minutes are going during the day that don't get lost by way of charging or understanding how long it really takes to get a project away. By the way I recommended ST to another Agency this week and they were considering ST already.
CONSI can't really answer this as its very functional and intuitive.

I love that Streamtime is always asking what the people want, and innovating and improving their product. Keep up the great work!
PROSI have worked in design studios for over 20 years, and with many different project management and resourcing systems. Streamtime is by far the most elegant all-in-one solution. The design team love being able to see their day/week; having access to the full scope/quote; and time-tracking is so easy it's always up to date. From a project management perspective, I find planning easy; quoting, invoicing and connection with Xero seamless, and reporting intuitive.

If you are a creative agency, you need Streamtime in your life!
Streamtime allows users & teams to be more organised throughout the studio. It appeals to all areas of the business including Management, Admin and Designers which makes it unique and so beneficial to the creative industry.
PROSStreamtime is so easy to use and most importantly looks amazing! I use the software for implementing all our jobs across the studio schedule which also helps my team plan and manage their own time and job schedule. The regular updates by the Streamtime team also prove to me that they really care about this product and listen to all feedback they gain from the users.

Beautiful, simple and easy to use time management.
I started using Streamtime after searching and trialling many other products. After finding this one and watching a few of the vblogs on their website I knew that this was the one for me and that the team behind it had the same idea and thoughts as to what this sort of software should be like to use. Although it is still quite new and some features are still being developed I have confidence in the team and that this will continue to evolve into something even greater. It has actually made me start to enjoy planning and tracking my workload, before it was a task and nothing I had found was flexible enough to keep up with the constantly updating task workload, especially when under pressure and on tight deadlines the normal time where keep track of things and recording time goes out the window. Highly recommend.

Elegant, intuitive tool with astounding level of customer support
The dashboard is elegant, easily customised and enjoyable to use. But perhaps most of all, we love the personalised and dedicated after-sales support, as well as the constant product improvements. This makes it exciting, reassuring and valuable to use from a customer perspective. Truly unlike any other project management tool
CONSLike with any new application, it takes a while to learn how to use as it's quite sophisticated. However, the pain of the learning curve was offset by the support we received.
Reason for choosing Streamtime
We had tried other project management tools, but none had the features of StreamTime unless we were prepared to pay up to 50 per cent more for our subscription. These include hours tracking, invoicing and integration with accounting software and. So that was the initial draw - but now that we are here, we're staying because of the amazing after-sales support and personal touch. Queries are answered within 24 hours; we're constantly hearing about user-generated product updates; and we're regularly invited to webinars where we can learn to use the product better. Oh, and goes without saying the visuals are gorgeous and easy to use. We are super impressed!

Best Creative Studio Management Software
Well designed. Great support, regular updates and new features. Does time tracking/studio management better than anything else. The development team seem to be very responsive to the feedback and requests from users.
CONSThe project management/scheduling really requires a dedicated studio manager to implement. If you're a small studio and find yourself spinning a lot of plates already the premium features tend to require more time to fully take advantage. That said, it's a great feature if you can dedicate the time to plan everything out.
Reason for choosing Streamtime
It's a great piece of design—in all aspects. The UX is great, and the function of the software is designed to the needs of creatives and they way we work.
