Fortis Time Management vs Teamwork.com
The billing side of Teamwork.com, without the project-management price ladder
Teamwork.com is a full project management platform, and time tracking rides along with it. But client invoicing needs the Accelerate plan and profitability insight sits on Optimize, above that — both with their own seat minimums. Fortis Time Management puts approvals, live margin and Xero invoicing in one app.
No signup. No sales call.
Why teams look beyond Teamwork.com
Client invoicing needs the Accelerate plan
Teamwork.com's pricing page lists client invoicing from logged time on the Accelerate plan, not Free or Basics.
Profitability insight is a plan further up
Profitability insights are listed under Optimize, a custom-priced plan above Accelerate.
Seat minimums from the entry-level plan
Basics requires a minimum of 3 users and Accelerate a minimum of 5, on top of the per-user monthly price.

Questions about switching
Is Fortis Time Management a full replacement for Teamwork.com?
Not for project management. Fortis Time Management covers time, approvals, profitability, retainers, invoicing and Xero. If you rely on Teamwork.com's task boards, Gantt charts or forms, those aren't in Fortis Time Management — Fortis Time Management only tracks tasks, not full project delivery.
Can I import my Teamwork.com time?
Yes. Export your time entries from Teamwork.com as CSV and upload them to Fortis Time Management, mapping the columns. You'll see a preview before anything is saved.
Does Fortis Time Management include invoicing?
Yes. Approved time becomes an invoice with UK VAT and is pushed to Xero as a draft. On Teamwork.com, client invoicing is on the Accelerate plan.
Can I try it first?
