Time Matters 16.3 Recommended

Date: Dec. 12, 2017    Categories: updates , links

After a rocky series of earlier releases, I now recommend Time Matters 16 to most Time Matters client.

The current release is Time Matters 16.3.0.73. The significant limitations in Time Matters affect billing links to the latest versions of third-party billing software. Of course Billing Matters is built into Time Matters as an option, so Billing Matters is totally compatible.
