Streamtime: App spotlight

How this app makes project management a breeze

By Ellie Huizenga · September 5, 2022

Projects can go awry for a lot of reasons: inaccurate scoping, lack of communication, scheduling overlap, or **insert your issue here**. But when you use Streamtime to coordinate your projects or freelance jobs, suddenly, everything becomes a little bit easier. 

With project management app Streamtime, you can manage your work in a comprehensive tool that organizes tasks, streamlines communication, and tracks progress. Built with the creative business in mind, Streamtime automates your to-do list (and other things), so you can focus on what really matters—spending time on your final product. 

Streamtime origins: From box to computer

Started in 2002, Streamtime launched as a project management software completely customized to each client. Four years later, in 2006, they launched in stores with a single, standardized boxed version of Streamtime—the kind you installed on your computer. Over the next ten years, Streamtime continued to grow, gaining customers worldwide. 

But in 2016, Streamtime realized they needed to make a radical change if they wanted to keep up with the rapidly changing software space. So, they went back to the drawing board to rebrand and redesign themselves into the software we see today—an app that helps users spend less time managing projects and more time doing the project. 

Did you know? Streamtime documented their entire rebuild process with short videos. As they say: "it's like the Bachelorette, but instead of hot dudes, we were choosing between design directions." Watch the videos on their press page

Streamtime in action: Project management at your fingertips

With the Streamtime iOS app, you can leave notes and update schedules on your phone, so nothing slips through the cracks—no matter where you are. And with auto-populated to-do lists, Streamtime makes your task and time management simple. You don't have to worry about what's next because it's already been laid out for you and your team. 

You can also quickly generate quotes and instantly approve invoices—making it easy to finalize project finances with outward-facing clients. And with their in-depth reporting feature, you can pull stats and share information with whoever needs it. 

Fave feature: Streamtime has a thorough kanban feature that allows you to track your projects by customizing your organization and setting priorities unique to you and your business.
