Our take
Time is a valuable asset for any business, but recording and invoicing it manually can prove cumbersome, especially at scale. This is the reason why many companies turn to professional service automation (PSA) tools; the market in which BigTime Software sits.
The company offers a cloud-based suite of practice management tools that allows professional services – from accountants to architects – to track, manage, and invoice their time. The platform also provides services in other areas, such as allowing companies to schedule employees and manage their projects.
BigTime Software acquired Projector, a leader in the PSA space, in 2022, towards combining Projector's functionality with BigTime's scale of operation. The combined entity is predicted to track over $10 billion of billable time each year.
