It's a question we hear all the time. By far, the greatest drain on project timelines involves ramp-up, interpretation, assumptions, corrections, and resetting the goals as the time for full execution dwindles. People engaging other people via some third party medium like software is the real challenge.

What would you do with those extra hours? Maybe finish other less important tasks, or maybe go outside and take an extended coffee break. It's your choice.
