About King Contract

King Contract by Datalog is a focused job costing and project management solution tailored for service-based companies that operate on an order or project basis, positioning each job as a central unit for financial control and profitability tracking.

King Contract by Datalog is a focused job costing and project management solution tailored for service-based companies that operate on an order or project basis, positioning each job as a central unit for financial control and profitability tracking. It excels at connecting estimates, time tracking, and billing into a single workflow, allowing businesses to monitor projects from initial quotation through to final financial outcome. The software’s strength lies in its tight integration between time sheets, cost allocation, and accounting, enabling real-time comparisons between budgeted and actual costs, as well as automated billing based on milestones or project progress. Its interface follows a traditional, data-dense design that prioritizes functionality and customization over modern aesthetics, with the On Fly!® system allowing users to tailor layouts and fields to their operational needs, though this flexibility comes with a notable learning curve and often requires formal training. Performance is reliable, especially for companies managing large, long-term projects with extensive historical data, and integration within the broader KING ecosystem ensures seamless alignment with accounting and invoicing processes.

Pros & Cons

Pros
  • The On Fly!® system makes customization easy, even without bringing in a developer.
  • It connects job reports directly to electronic invoices, so no bridge software is needed.
  • Labor costs feel more reliable because time sheets and the general ledger stay tightly linked.
Cons
  • For very small teams, the amount of data needed can feel like too much.
  • The interface has a steep learning curve, so figuring it out alone is tough.
  • Its Windows-style menus may feel a little old-fashioned to people used to modern web apps.
