Where Harvest is better
- Invoicing and expense tracking on every plan, even Free. Jasper does not send invoices or track expenses.
- Accounting and payment integrations from Teams: Stripe, QuickBooks Online, Xero, Deel and others.
- Apps for iOS and Android. Jasper has no mobile apps.
- Profitability reporting, unlimited custom reports and SAML SSO on Enterprise.
Where Jasper is better
- Timesheet approvals on Jasper's team plans, with weekly, fortnightly or monthly periods. In Harvest they are on Enterprise.
- Leave requests, accrual policies, balances and public holidays next to the timesheets. Approved leave and holidays can turn into time entries, so weeks are not short.
- The desktop app notices when you step away and asks what to do with that time. It does not track other apps or websites.
- Chat, calls and mail in the same workspace, so a client email, the discussion about it and the timer sit together.
Using Jasper with your invoicing tool
- Open Reports and filter by client and date range.
- Export to CSV or PDF. Exports hold hours and a billable flag, not amounts. Owners and admins decide which entries are billable.
- Create the invoice in Xero, QuickBooks or whatever you invoice from today.
