The Real Value of Data!

Collecting accurate and consistent time data is an excellent way for any business to understand how their staffing resources are being consumed on a day to basis and by Client Project tasks and activities, and to ascertain the real cost of staffing to the business. However, accurate data collection works hand in hand with the ability to understand and report on that data in a meaningful way.

Report and Charting Engines:

MetriQ comes with its own comprehensive Reporting and Charting engine, which offers an unprecedented number of data views so maximizing the scope and leverage such accurate data will provide. And because MetriQ times at the software application level, you will also for the first time have access to statistical data you never thought possible detailing even more precisely what you and your staff have been doing, and how these tasks were accomplished. For the first time you will be able to see how long and the relative cost of staff writing emails, using the web or the time spent in meetings with a prospective client, helping you understand what’s good value for money, and what’s a poor money sink that’s not providing a decent return on investment.

Fixed Budgets and Forecasting

MetriQ also works as a Project Management system with fixed budgets, allowing you to forecast project end dates, and get a comparative viewpoint of how far into the budget you are, all in real-time. With the use of Gantt charts and other Project Management tools, your working knowledge of this key aspect of your business can only get better.

Exporting Facilities

MetriQ comes with a full and comprehensive range of export data formats that include XML, HTML, Excel and CSV allowing you to import your valuable time and cost data directly into your third party billing software such as MYOB and Quickbooks.

Invoices

MetriQ will even generate client invoices and gives you access to over 60 pre-formatted reports each of which can be further customized to suite your own business needs.

Charting Tools

Finally, data visualization is important to understanding how time is being managed, and MetriQ comes with its own 3D charting tool, allowing you to plot your data into one of 18 different char types, including pie, bar, histogram and Gantt, each of which can be rotated and zoomed in front of you on screen.
