that’s awesome …is 100 per cent a great tool , i would be glade to take advantage of and start keep taking of my projects
track of daily task and deadlines.
Fantastico! favourite would be the project stay in crontol. It’s and excellent idea… i hope you could development the project manager in different language… THANKSSS
I would love the Invoices feature. I’m not the best with numbers, so this clean and organized feature would be super helpful! Beautiful app!
all of these project management features in one software is awesome! I would definitely love to use it and it’ll be very helpful.
Would be very helpful to have! I was looking for a management tool just yesterday!
I love the option of the one click, branded invoices. That would save me some time to have all of that in one place.
Very nice app, i need it to control my projects
Being a visual person I love the way so much of the information is displayed in a visual way, I think it would really help me keep track of things. Plus the fact that it is well designed, which as a designer makes me all excited to use it.
I need the invoicing feature the most — the projects feature would come in handy too.
I love the project tracking tools! this looks awesome!
I need Solo in my life! My favourite bit would be the project overview feature. Mmmm visual project breakdown.
I dont have any project management software and this has some excellent features!
This rocks – can’t pick just one feature that outshines another. I’ve struggled with other systems that were clunky or missing elements along the project management spectrum. Solo is on the right track – it makes me want to spend time on the administrative aspects of my business because all of the elements are intuitively integrated and the interface is just yummy!
Even though I could use every single feature, I think the invoice feature would help me out the most!
Solo automatic timesheets rules \o/
I definitely need the invoice and planner. An estimate section would be the cherry on top!
I love how everything is intigrated into one program, from project ‘management to invoicing.
Solo is an application that already feel the need to use. Through its simplicity everything is easy to manage as all projects, all clients, all expenses and all earnings. It is a wonderful tool.
Un projet qui me serait bien utile !
Bonne continuation
All the features are great. They all could really change the way I work.
But my favorite feature it’s definitely Timesheet. It would help me so much! I could track every hour spent on each project. And I would know precisely how much to charge based on similar jobs.
It would be great!
Thanks for the chance, Ryan! Really appreciated it.
I definately need the invoicing and project tracking tools!
As a freelance designer, I like the timesheets feature. It would be very useful for tracking and managing my time spent on different projects. Thanks for incuding me in the giveaway.
The Projects section looks great…since I don’t have a Project Manager keeping me (or clients) on track, this application would be perfect!
Unbelievable! The whole Solo application could solve a lot of problems!
Thank you to let me to know this pearl!
i think the invoicing feature is great .. also the coming quickbooks integration sounds very promising!
I love the Planner, it puts all the information you primarily need right in front of you to easily read and access.
I think the integration of so many elements would be invaluable, more than any individual element itself. Not sure the calendars are all that useful for showing an overview, though there many other features I’d like to use. The time tracking overview looks good.
I believe i am modern freelancer, i would like to use it. I’am in.
This looks fantastic app! I’d love it to keep track of various collaborative projects due at different websites I sell at! Also would love to use the time-tracking feature… and maybe figure out just how much of my time gets piddled away on stupid stuff… lol… That would probably be quite an eye-opener and motivator to spend my time more wisely! 🙂
I would use the project planning as I pull together people with specific skill sets for my client projects in addition to my own creative direction participation. Cheers E.
I would like to know and apply it to my work
All of them. I hate paperwork! But this is a beautiful interface that would make me WANT to do paperwork.
Anything to make Invoicing and more automated and easy is a must!
Being the statistics-absorbing, number-crunching freak, I’d love the infographics feature.
Would really like it for the invoicing. Task management feature would be the highlight for me.
Everything looks useful, but the dashboard definitely looks like It’d be the biggest help to me
The glance-able dashboard seems like an invaluable feature, and it is most certainly something I don’t have access to with my current configuration.
Boy, I desperately need the ability to track my projects in a way that is actually useful. As it is, scraps of paper with scrawled quotes, proposed deadlines and half-hearted attempts at tracking hours swirl around my office/guest bedroom like a January blizzard off Lake Michigan. SAVE ME (Normally I find ALL CAPS tacky, but really, I hope this program can SAVE ME. Especially with a FREE YEAR. Thanks)
It’s hard to choose just one, but I could definitely use the Timesheets feature!
It would all be helpful to me, especially the dashboard, and how I can keep track of daily task and deadlines.
My favorite feature would have to be the Timesheets.
This is one beautiful app and finally one that uses Clarendon!!! I’d use it as my digital secretary, because it has EVERYTHING one needs as a freelancer, most of all the Project Page for me!
I have been looking for a way to keep track of my projects. This looks awesome.
i really would like have it for visual breakdown of time and tasks. it will be helpful. 🙂
I need the planner and invoicing tool! I’m an unorganized mess!! 🙁
Hello,
Très joli projet, outil parfait pour qu’enfin je fase preuve d’un minimun d’organisation.
La bise !!
