AUSTIN, TEXAS (July 8, 2008) - Journyx today announces that organizations
worldwide can lower costs while also being more "green" by using Timesheet
Online. Timesheet Online provides two key green benefits out of the box: as
a hosted Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) application, it encourages
telecommuting, and customers are effectively "carpooling" their applications
into a central data center, which also cuts companies' costs. Journyx is the
first company to provide Web-based time-tracking and project accounting
solutions that guide customers to per-person, per-project profitability.
SaaS applications such as Timesheet Online fully enable telecommuting.
Timesheet Online allows knowledge workers to track their time and understand
project status from anywhere with an internet connection. This includes
client sites, home offices, airports and even coffee shops where these
workers can be productive without consuming fossil fuels.
When companies choose Timesheet Online, they're effectively carpooling or
taking mass transit. The Journyx central data center already provides the
computing resources to run every customer's installation of Timesheet
Online. Customers do not need to consume critical resources to generate the
power for their own host machine. Further, the redundant backup power, HVAC
systems, etc. are also handled by the Journyx data center and not the
customer, which not only helps the environment, but the customer's bottom
line.
A Journyx customer with direct involvement in the preservation of the
environment confirms that in very large organizations with dozens of
offices, automated timekeeping systems such as Timesheet avoid the waste of
paper and shipping envelopes, and help keep attendant costs down. The
customer also explains that a secondary benefit in such firms is that it
provides earlier, paperless integration into project management and avoids
multiple iterations of project management reports, which is also wasteful
and environmentally unsound.
Journyx CEO Curt Finch offers this suggestion to entrepreneurs starting a
new business: "If I was starting a company today, I wouldn't buy a single
server. I would do my best to avoid acting as or hiring an IT professional.
I would do everything with SaaS. I would use a customer relationship
management tool for my contact management, and I would use a SaaS accounting
application. I would outsource email and document storage. I would have no
servers at all. Without servers and their accompanying headaches, I could
focus on serving my customers instead of building a bunch of technology
infrastructure that is, at this point, redundant."
Journyx is the first company to provide Web-based time-tracking and project
accounting solutions that guide customers to per-person, per-project
profitability. Customers include American Airlines, Bayer, AC Nielsen,
L'Oreal and Schlumberger. For more information, go to
