More than a Time Entry Tool
Mobile professionals need more than a wireless time entry tool. When out of the office, they meet with clients, negotiate deals or litigate in court. Important as it is, time entry is not the most pressing daily priority. Serving clients is.
Keeping client and matter information up-to-date when new information is disclosed - wherever you are - is an immediate value to managing a professional services firm. Elite Mobile Link uniquely provides access to client and matter information, in addition to timecard finalization - not just time entry. These added advantages make Mobile Link a true wireless practice partner.

Document Summarization
- Conveniently track and enter billable time - including phone calls - from wherever you are.
