Hey Sujit. It's interesting to hear what you use. If you do find something that does all those things i've love to know about it!
incorporating all those things into 1 app would prove costly, and when you build a management app, you have to toe the line between too much, and not enough. With trigger, we found we lighten the load for creatives and developers who'd rather be creating than doing 'paperwork'. They log time and it can be created into an invoice with a few clicks. I've found working in trigger for over a year has helped me be more productive. Also it doesn't hurt the software looks quite nice too. :) Don't be afraid to move to new software though! whatever that might be!
