Apart from upgrading our pricing scheme today another small change occurred so this is just to make you guys aware of it. Rounding of numbers in Invoices has now been sorted so it is now far more accurate. Also on project invoices the amount of time in hours is now shown to 1 decimal place and if the time for a task is less than 1 hour it will show the time in “30 mins” rather than “0.5 hours” (or whatever time).

New Pricing Scheme – $1/invoice

2

Posted on February 16th, 2010 in News, Service Update

Today we have rolled out an upgrade to MakeSomeTime with a totally new pricing scheme designed to help out freelancers and other people who use this site.

We know that when your freelancing you don’t know when your going to have money, and that committing to a monthly fee might seem a bit scary. So we’ve decided to implement a pricing scheme that fits with the “do things simple” ethic of MakeSomeTime.

Now you have the ability to deposit money to your account. You can then use this money when sending invoices at a rate of just $1/invoice. How good is that! Note that you can create as many invoices as you like as you will only be charged when you send an invoice (and there is no cost for re-sending invoices). And that’s it. All other features of MakeSomeTime are now free and unlimited.

As always we would love to hear what you think about this new pricing scheme and we hope you enjoy it.

Another small update today. This time to the Projects page. Not only can you now see the total time for a Project in the Tasks list, but you can also create an Invoice straight from the Project with one click. How cool is that. Making your life so much easier.

Note that only Projects with a Project Budget set will show an option for creating invoices. As always please let us know what you think about our small additions to the site. If you haven’t guessed yet we are employing a “small simple steps” approach to enhancing MakeSomeTime so we can make sure it’s spot on. Also if you find any bugs don’t hesitate to tell us.
