Great time tracking tool on the go
The experience was good, it was particularly useful to have reports issued in excel format.
Pros
I really like that you can track time spent on tasks in real-time by hitting the 'play' button on a particular task in a project and then pressing 'stop' to stop tracking.
Cons
When forgetting to hit 'stop' the time would continue to accumulate so sometimes it would go on over the weekend. Perhaps it could have some sort of timeout or a notification to flag such occasions.

It's awesome!
I love TrackingTime! It always saves me from pulling out a watch and manually creating a spreadsheet in order to track everything!
Pros
I love how easy it is to track/adjust time per task.
Cons
It may have been a bit of a challenge to reopen archived projects.
Reasons for switching to TrackingTime
TrackingTime automatically calculates everything and I didn't like manually entering in functions and having to recalculate if I need to adjust the time.

Multiple Job Organization
Overall, in a basic sense it works well but wish the functionality for our particular situation was better. It's time consuming to fill out time sheets when we have to enter multiple 18-25 digit numbers in the comments for multiple jobs per day.
Pros
The interface is relatively self explanatory and easy to use in a basic sense.
Cons
We work on multiple jobs per day that need to be charged to multiple accounts. The issue that that we can't figure out is how to setup the software so that it's possible add job #'s to the pay categories to select from, like the "Reg Pay" selection. We currently work around it by entering our time as "Regular" but then we have to enter the account numbers and a brief description of what we did on that account in the comments section. It would be nice if under "pay category" that we could have it setup with a job number, like #8508, and then the software automatically applies the account information to the job # in the background. It seems like this is how the software is setup but it seems to be non-functional on our end.

On Track - On Time!
I know where to pull my resources of time, energy and management and use them effectively for every unique project that comes across my desk.
Pros
I have many aspects in projects going on at the same time. For example: Audio Production, Video Production, Research and general touching base with all those involved on our end and the client's. I have accountability data....THIS is of great value!
Cons
I have no problems with the standard features. A timer of proposed and projected time of what a possible part of a project may be estimated. That could come in handy.

It's awesome daily analytics
Pros
- setting the goals, ie you have achievements for each day. For example," more than xxx hours of Software development" etc - access for the analytics on both desktop and mobile - reasonable small memory footprint, you keep doing great! No builky and heavy windows, this program not even noticeable in background.
Cons
Not particullary, everything working as expected.

Record your work hours
Pros
This application has many advantages when working with freelance clients or with remote companies. You can calculate your hours worked with just start the tracker, if you forgot to start it you just have to start a new time log and edit the start time at which you started. You can also indicate in detail what you did during that period of time, have a record of hours worked per day, week or month, and an average of days worked in the week. Actually this app has made me manage my time and labor cost.
Cons
It can be improved in many aspects, such as taking screen capture while you work, connecting with a payment gateway to send a receipt with your summary of hours attached.

Use the software every day!
Its been great, I've tried many other programs and this one just works and just keeps working.
Pros
I love how easy it is to track my time and add new projects. I also love that I can get a overview of my week and how many hours a day I've worked. As a freelancer this is extremely helpful information. Also being able to sync with my phone is a God Sent!
Cons
I don't love that its a subscription. Much rather have a one time cost.

I love Tracking Time for my freelance business
Pros
Tracking time makes it super easy to track hours for different projects in a day or even the same time. It's a great addition you can have it as an extension on google chrome if you need to quickly clock in. I also find the reports and manage projects tab so helpful when creating invoices and ability to track what I worked on and when in a week.
Cons
I don't have any cons about the software for the moment.

June 2017
A lightweight, full featured time tracking service that gets the job done.
The ability to report on project timeline performance with traceable, direct metrics was immensely helpful in justifying the business case for increased personnel and additional budgetary resources.
Pros
The ability to get instantaneous metrics on hours tracked, performance targets, and overall usage without having to spend time creating or reviewing complex reports. The dashboard view alone is virtually everything a Project Manager needs to be able to proactively adjust resources and priorities.
Cons
The inability to have two users contribute to a common task is a SERIOUS deterrent to wider rollout and adoption within our organization. That, combined with the limited access control features and lack of flexibility in input methods is what reduces this from the best in class application to merely an excellent entry in an already crowded field.

Free or Paid it is worth it and reasonable.
I would recommend this to anyone. It works well and keeps track of everything wonderfully
Pros
It is so easy and straight forward to use. I have been using it for years and never had a complaint. When I decide to actually go for the monthly payment version, it got even better and is very reasonably priced.
Cons
There really isn't anything I can say that is bad about this item. It works as advertised and a great producte.

Time Tracker with a Great Free Version
Pros
Easy to learn. Tracks projects with multiple elements.
Cons
The free version limits the number of tasks you can have active. Honestly, I've been using TrackingTime for a couple years and have only ran into this a few times.

Pros
What is views and what you can get for free is a great value

Great product
Pros
This product is easy to integrate into project management platforms, which I loved very much. And it was easy to use! And allowed me to track time spent on different aspects of a task or project.
Cons
I would love for there to be reminders. Sometimes I forgot to start and end tracking, so had to go back in and manually edit the time. I like that I can go back and fix times. But really wish there was a way there could be a start and end button always on top of whatever I'm doing. Or at least reminders.

review
Overall very good.
Pros
That it has a bar measuring the time you spent on a project within the budget assigned to each
Cons
There are sometimes where I'm not tracking time and the ball on Chrome (the chrome extension) still shows red as if I was. That confuses me. Also, to start tracking time you need to create a task, that should be optional, I would want to start tracking time just by the project. There are sometime where I go and forget to set the timer off. I read somewhere that there was a new update that detected this and stopped to tracking? But it's not working for me. So I have to edit the time. Abd to get to the time log, it's not that easy. I wish it was easier.
Reasons for switching to TrackingTime
Cause I switched to Windows.

Free Version
I use this for my own personal planning and only use the free version because I am not convinced that the paid version would be much better for what I need (at the moment).
Pros
I have used the free version to keep track of my time on projects, and it seems to be pretty good. I like that it reminds me of an ongoing activity as well as being able to backtrack to fill in my time.
Cons
I wish it was available to use on a phone application. Additionally, I wish that you could set the time you want to spend on each task and it would notify you when you should switch and ask you if you have switched.

Best Time Tracking Software I've Tried
Pros
The tool is super easy to use, they have a desktop version that tracks automatically, making edits is a breeze as well. And as a designer, it's aesthetically appealing compared to others that I've tried.
Cons
I'm actually really pleased with this software and I've tried many out there. This one is by far the easiest to use with the features that I need.

Easy to use
Pros
TrackingTime was very easy to use and quick to setup. I used this for short-term projects with a lot of pieces to manage. For example, it was a great help as a graduate student tracking the time spent on different elements in my thesis. I could look back at the end of the week and see how much I got done.
Cons
I switched to a different time tracker when I needed to only track the hours spent for billing at another job. I only really needed a phone app with a stop watch at the time. Would try TrackingTime again in the future.

Good software, difficult to understand at first
I used the free trial to track the hours for my freelance services. I loved the PDF reports, it's a pity they are gone after the free trial.
Pros
I love the features and the look of it, you can track your hours easily
Cons
It takes a while getting used to it, wasn't easy to find everything at the beginning. Not very user-friendly

Its fairly reasonable nothing overly wrong with it

Simple & powerful task manager
Pros
Great way to keep track of how much time I spend on my tasks. Also, this app is cloud-based and syncs well with the desktop app
Cons
The only thing lacking is the ability to change the hourly rate to a project rate.

Nifty tool to analyze where your time is being used
It was good. I was expecting two way communication for some of the integration but I am okay with what I got with TT
Pros
- Omnipresent: You can use it from any where from email, to a desktop app - Auto Sync: Dashboard stays in sync with the timmer running from anywhere - Analytics: proper analytics of activity in which you are spending your time in
Cons
- Some features are paid which should be basic. Like analytics report. Free plan only allows you to see basic analytics - Support chat bubble come up all the time in desktop app

Really great app to track and make you aware of your time, it will help you be more productive
I am very happy with the software, I think it's one of the best out there on tracking time and staying productive, together with an app Freedom this is great for anyone who might struggle with procrastination
Pros
I really enjoyed the ide behind this and the easy use, I do really appreciate the stop and play feature, where when I start the task I can just click a simple button and know the exact time
Cons
I think it can be made just a bit more simpler, I wouldn't add more features, I would maybe think of ways it can be a bit more simple

Arts Nonprofit using TrackingTime
I love it! As a nonprofit this an easy and inexpensive way for us to track hours spent on projects or create timesheets for payroll while using our Google Calendars.
Pros
It allows us to use our Google calendars to track time we spend on projects. We're also using it to tack part staff hours.
Cons
The specific needs to keep all # filters the same. If we use #Development to track development hours and someone on the teams used #DEVELOPMENT those two filters will be grouped separately.
