WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY
9
2014
“Tempo and JIRA are a great combination at any company. Even if you don’t currently think you need to track time, I would strongly recommend you develop that culture. It’s a culture of communicating, and it helps everyone make decisions about how they use their time. The most important tool that any leader has is simply how we use our time. If we don’t know what we’re doing, then we can’t make decisions about how to use this most precious resource.”
—Michael Balfour, Director of Engineering, Balfour
“Nobody likes to enter time! To help our organization get better insight into where we are in our delivery process, having up-to-date information about where resources are spending their time is important. Getting our engineers to enter their time helps us in this endeavor.”
—Sean deBardelaben, Lead Product Development Manager, AT&T
