FunctionFox review

FunctionFox is a focused tool for creative agencies that bill by time. The Classic plan, at $10.50 per user a month billed annually, includes a timesheet with a stopwatch timer, unlimited clients and projects, estimate and budget tracking, retainer tracking and reports. Its feature table also lists timesheet approvals and reminders, locked projects, job costing with markups, quoting and invoicing, fixed fee and hourly estimates, billable rates and utilization reports. Premier, at $16.00 per user billed annually, adds a to-do list, Gantt charts, schedules and availability and traffic reports. In-House, at $36.75, suits internal creative teams with custom intake forms and an advanced report builder. All plans need at least 3 users. FunctionFox ranks behind Avaza because its project management is thinner on the entry plan, but it is one of the few tools that puts retainer tracking at the lowest price point.
