I had no clue back then what would become of Dovico or where it would bring us, but I’m happy to say that it’s a place where I feel like home…
Understanding where employee time is spent and realigning that time to “fit” the project at hand is a major step toward greater profitability. “Time” is the keyword, it relates to money and software that saves and tracks time, increases efficiency and cuts project costs.

I shared with him the stat that our cloud service manager recently gave us, was that our servers sent out 2,004,294 emails in 2017. The amount of emailed reports speaks to the power of the tool. The beauty of the report Job Scheduler is that…

Are spreadsheets still used for timesheets? In 2009, we published a press release saying that financial benefits can be gained from subscribing to an out-of-the-box solution for timesheet entry instead of using Excel spreadsheets. Would you believe it when I say that it still holds true today? Funny thing is though, now we’ve created a really nice Excel timesheet template that we’re giving away free.
