Now you can bring together CompanyCam’s powerful photo capabilities with busybusy’s comprehensive time tracking system!


Easily view CompanyCam photos within busybusy and include them in busybusy’s in-depth reports. Plus, you can choose how to sync your new projects, either from busybusy to CompanyCam or CompanyCam to busybusy. Once you integrate you and your crew will be ready to start taking, editing, and uploading photos to the right project immediately!

Before you start

You will need:

  • CompanyCam Pro Account

  • busybusy Pro Account

  • Admin Permissions

  • (optional) Daily Project Reports busybusy Upgrade. You must have an active account with both CompanyCam and busybusy in order to integrate the two services. busybusy requires a Pro-level account.

How it Works

Anytime you take or save a photo within CompanyCam, that photo will automatically appear within busybusy’s photo library. The timestamp, geolocation (if enabled), project assignment, and photo taker’s name from CompanyCam photos also appear within busybusy. If you decide to edit a photo within CompanyCam (drawing, adding outlines, text overlays etc.), the photo within busybusy will automatically update to show your photo’s edits. Pretty cool, eh?

With busybusy’s world-class time tracking and CompanyCam’s world-class photos you’ll be able to create incredible Daily Project Reports. This upgrade feature from busybusy automatically pulls in the daily weather, daily project employee hours, daily progress, and now you can incorporate your stunning CompanyCam photos. All tied together in a digitally signed Daily Project Report.

Note: If, in the future, you decide you want to change the direction of your project syncing you’ll need to disconnect your CompanyCam integration and reconnect it. Please see our Change Project Sync Direction article in our Help Center for more information on how to do this.

8. Match or Create New Projects with a One-Time Project Import. Depending on your selection above (in Step 7), you can perform a one-time project import from busybusy to CompanyCam or from CompanyCam to busybusy. We will attempt to match existing projects; otherwise, a new project will be created.

Note: After the initial import, new projects should always be created in the app you designated in Step 7, otherwise new projects will not sync.
