Clockify

Pros

We loved the ability to tracking time spent on specific clients and break that down into tasks and projects for that client. Timesheet can easily be submitted to supervisor for approval, making payroll processing easier. Integrates well with Asana and Quickbooks for billing our project specific clients. Before Clockify, many times revenue would fall between cracks in reporting time, so it really reduces revenue loss. Also, Clockify was a big help in tracking workloads, employee productivity, and expenses.

Cons

Not good for mobile employees as it doesn't have GPS tracking. Manual entry of time led to a couple of time where employee reporting was inaccurate. Strict monitoring is required.

Reasons for Switching to Clockify

Pros

To me, Clockify is a pretty good time tracking platform for personal use or business, if you want to track tasks/ logs per project & client. It has many useful features like Clients, Projects, Project Tasks, Invoices.
Time logs can have many fields or just as few as you want, that's essential to me. A task can be added to a project and a project task and can be labelled with tags, so you can categorize your logs.

Cons

To me as a personal user with only a few tasks, the cost for an according plan is high, as I only need some features of other plans. I would like it better if there was an option to add single features as kind of add-on for a fair price.
The mobile app is great too, but some useful features aren't yet implemented. But for basic logging it works, and more details can be added via web on desktop later.

Pros

Clockify makes it very easy to categorize and organize projects and tasks, and either track your work in real time or go back and input your time later. The reporting features have been great for helping me communicate time spent on deliverables when I send clients progress reports on projects.

Cons

I'm going to sound like I work for them, but I swear to you I don't. I just have not found anything not to like about this software yet.

Pros

Their pricing is unbeatable. It is so easy to install and deploy

Cons

Nothing bad so far. It has been working greatly

It also has great visualization tools which makes it easy to read and interpret the presented time insights.

Its summary can show useful breakdown of hours used for invoicing.

I often could not update the laptop app when it shows that updates are necessary.
We can't stop the timer without input of project; sometimes it's difficult to search the project we're tracking if we forget our labels.
The 'Description' label can be confusing and cannot be edited once inserted at the beginning of tracking for a project.

Pros

This greatly helped with my productivity and managing multiple work tasks. It's very user-friendly and doesn't need a complicated setup.

Pros

I am a part-time freelancer with 1-2 clients at any time. Clockify is one of my most essential tools for time-tracking towards monthly invoice. It's simple to use and allows me to start/stop/pause time fluidly from my browser window.

Cons

There are no cons to this program for me. I use the free version and it's an excellent value.

Reasons for Switching to Clockify

Pros

I like using most the time tracker and the reports! Also, the ability to export the reports in pdf/excel file helps me track everything even when I'm offline. It helps me see the overall picture of the projects that I'm working on with my client.

Cons

Timesheet. Not because I don't like it, but it doesn't work with how I work with my clients.

Pros

What I like most about using Clockify is how easy and intuitive it is. The user interface makes time tracking a breeze, and the detailed reporting tools give me clear insights into how I’m spending my time. I also love that the free plan offers unlimited users and projects, which is perfect for my team. Plus, the ability to track billable hours and integrate with other tools like Trello really helps streamline my workflow. It’s simple but powerful, which makes a huge difference in managing productivity.

Cons

What I like least about Clockify is that some of the more advanced features, like invoicing and deeper analytics, are only available in the paid plans, which can be limiting. The mobile app can also be a bit sluggish at times, and it doesn’t always offer the full functionality I need when I’m on the go.

Pros

The feature list is almost complete - you can do everything you would want to have in a time tracker in it.

Cons

While features are largely there, I would like to use shortcuts more extensively to move around entries, quickly copy/edit them. As clockify is also used by developers, I imagine the core audience would also appreciate that.

E.g. use hjkl to navigate the calendar view, use cmd+d to duplicate the task, use hjkl to move the duplicate, then use cmd+hjkl to move this duplicate to the place i want.

Also while in the entry, it would be great to have things out of your way while you use keyboard. Example: when you switch to the project field, you can type in the project, as I type I want the project to be selected, so that i don't need to press down (two times - one to pass the collapse button, another one to select project), I want to be able just press return and the project would be selected.

Reasons for Switching to Clockify

Pros

Clockify’s user-friendly interface makes time tracking simple and free for individuals and teams. It’s easy to start timers, track projects, and log hours, which is great for managing my team’s hours across various projects. It integrates well with other tools for collaboration, and its reporting features provide helpful insights into time spent on tasks. Plus, the mobile app syncs smoothly with the desktop version for seamless use across devices.

Cons

What I liked least about Clockify is that when integrating with QuickBooks, it only works with employees set up in QuickBooks, not contractors. This was a big limitation for me since I primarily work with contractors. Another issue is that you can only send hours by project, which might work well if you invoice by project. However, I invoice by resource, listing the hours and costs for each person across all projects, which Clockify doesn't support. Could be a great opportunity to add this feature for those who manage invoicing differently.

Reasons for Switching to Clockify

Pros

I love the ability to separate clients, projects, and tasks separately. It is so simple to track multiple types of work and payrates within the same client or project, and the reporting makes it incredibly easy to create invoices at the end of the month.

Cons

I wish it integrated with my invoice software so I could generate invoices directly from a report. This would save me hours and hours of time every month.

More to just time tracking, Clockify has some team scheduling tools that help me and my team to plan and schedule for our work shifts.

Cons

I have not had any unpleasing moments with Clockify. I have genuinely loved everything about it so no cons to report.

Pros

What I like most about Clockify is its smoothness and ease of use. The time tracking is intuitive, and the integration with the Google Chrome extension makes the process extremely convenient.

Cons

What I like least is that sometimes the extension button doesn't work when clicked or has phantom touches. However, this doesn't impact usability since I can simply click again or refresh, which only takes seconds.

Pros

Clockify has helped me improve my time management and productivity. The best part is that it offers the flexibility to generate detailed reports based on projects, clients, or team members. These reports can be easily exported in multiple formats, such as CSV, PDF, Excel, etc.

Cons

I feel the mobile app is less intuitive and slow or glitchy compared to the desktop or web versions. Another issue is that entering or editing time manually feels cumbersome, particularly for users and teams managing multiple projects and tasks simultaneously.

Pros

One of the things I liked most about Clockify is its simplicity and ease of use. The intuitive interface makes it easy to track time and manage tasks, even for team members with minimal experience. I also appreciate the flexibility it offers, allowing you to create custom reports, track billable hours, and integrate with other tools seamlessly. The ability to switch between different projects and tasks with a single click enhances productivity, and the fact that it's available across devices means you can stay on top of your time tracking from anywhere.

Cons

One aspect I liked least about Clockify is that some of its more advanced features, like detailed reporting and integrations, are only available in the paid version. While the free version is great for basic time tracking, those looking for deeper analytics or more complex project management capabilities might feel limited without upgrading. Additionally, the user interface, while intuitive, can feel a bit cluttered at times, especially when handling multiple projects or team members. Lastly, the mobile app occasionally lags, making it a bit less reliable compared to the desktop version.

Pros

Clockify is great I especially love its user-friendly interface that makes time tracking easy and enjoyable. Also, the detailed reporting feature is really helpful for analyzing productivity. the ability to collaborate with a team, which makes project management much smoother.

Cons

Personally, one of the aspects that some people find frustrating is the limitation of some features in the free version. Sometimes, this can make it difficult to access advanced tools without upgrading to a paid plan.

Pros

What I appreciate most about Clockify is the simplicity and flexibility it offers. The interface is user-friendly, making time tracking easy even for someone with minimal tech experience. The ability to categorize tasks by projects, clients, and time intervals provides clear insights into productivity. The fact that it offers unlimited users and projects in the free plan is a huge plus, making it accessible for freelancers and teams alike. Integrating it with other tools like Asana and Trello has also been seamless and valuable for my workflow.

Cons

One thing I would like to see improved is the reporting feature on the free plan. While the basics are covered, more advanced customizations or visualizations could elevate the experience even further without needing a premium plan.

Pros

As a freelancer, I love using Clockify to track my time because it really helps me understand how I spend my hours on different projects. The interface is straightforward, so I can quickly log my work and generate reports that keep my clients informed. Plus, the free version is a huge bonus, allowing me to stay organized without breaking the bank!

Cons

As a freelancer, I’ve found a few downsides to Clockify. The free version has limited features, which might not be enough if I need more advanced tools. Sometimes the interface feels a bit cluttered with too many tasks, and the mobile app isn’t as easy to use as the desktop version, which can be frustrating when I’m trying to track time on the go. I’m actually considering upgrading to maximize the benefits and get access to more features.

Pros

So easy to use and you can select client, project and task options so keeps everything very simple. Adding the Clockify to the browser bar using the extension means its all but a click away so if youre like me and jumping from one task to another (regardless of start of the day intentions) then this really helps keep track of where tike is spent and for whom.

Cons

Two things, one, sometimes if its left running then i need to manually find errors and resolve. And two, the trial was, understandably, a little limiting so I felt I had to purchase the full version to really see if I'd keep using it. It is 'forever free' though so if a little functionality is needed then brilliant. Other than that it pretty much does what youd expect.

Pros

Clockify offers me a real-time time tracker that help me to monitor how am spending my working hours with much ease. It has a robust reporting tool that gives accurate analytics insights on how well or poor am managing my time. Clockify has an auto tracker option that help track time usage automatically with no manual work to do. Its simple integration with project management tools makes it easy to monitor my time usage on each tasks i have. Clockify also help me and my work colleagues to create flexible work schedules and shifts.

Cons

There has never been anything bad with Clockify. I have not yet encountered any challenges while using it.

Pros

Necessary features for managing the team member bookings. We can easily manage bookings on the project by project. It is easy to extract reports with various filters provided in the system.

Cons

Timer restriction is paid one. and the option for the User role creation is missing. (right now only we have Admin and Normal users) in the free plan, Team leader / PM/ etc roles could be configured with the same plan.

Pros

One thing I really liked about Clockify is how user-friendly and intuitive it is. The time-tracking feature is super easy to use, and it’s great that it works across different devices, so I can log my time whether I’m on my laptop or phone. The dashboard is also really clean, making it easy to see where my time is going at a glance, which helps me stay on top of productivity.

Cons

What I liked least about Clockify is that the reporting features, while useful, can feel a bit limited when you need more detailed or custom reports. Sometimes, I find myself wanting more flexibility in how I filter or organize data, but it’s only available with the paid plans. Also, it can be a bit slow to load at times, especially when you have a lot of data logged. But overall, these are minor things compared to the overall benefits.

Pros

Clockify is free - there's a paid version, but the free one works fine for me. I can record time spent on tasks with a click to start, and stop. You can create a list of tasks and descriptions so you standardize tasks described. I also like that you can easily summarize a specific period of time to look at using reports

Cons

I would have liked to be able to customize the user interface a bit more, but that's pretty minor.

Pros

The best thing about Clockify is its user-friendly interface and powerful time-tracking capabilities. It makes tracking work hours incredibly straightforward, whether you're managing a team or just your own projects. The detailed reporting features are invaluable for understanding productivity trends, and the fact that it integrates seamlessly with other tools means it fits perfectly into my workflow. Plus, the free version offers so many robust features that it's practically unbeatable compared to other time-tracking software.

Cons

If I had to pick a con, it would be that the desktop app could be a bit more refined. Sometimes it takes a moment to sync with the web version, but it's not a dealbreaker by any means. The overall functionality still makes it a standout tool for time management.

Alternatives Considered

Reasons for Switching to Clockify

Pros

It does exactly what I need it to - captures the time I spend on various projects - and allows me to amend times/project names when I've selected the wrong thing. I love the reports but have no need of them - I just need to see over the course of the year how much time I've spent on various tasks.

Cons

I don't have time at work to fully explore all the benefits so am conscious that I am using probably only 5% of what Clockify can offer. If there was a Clockify-lite option - with no frills, I'd be over the moon - but it works absolutely fine as it is.

Pros

Clockify has an intuitive user interface that makes tracking time very simple and efficient. Its flexibility to manage multiple projects, create detailed reports, and track billable hours in real time is highly valuable for any professional. The integration with other tools like Jira and Asana streamlines workflow and the fact that it offers a free plan with robust features is a huge plus.

Cons

While Clockify is feature-rich, the reporting customization options can be somewhat limited. It would be helpful to have more advanced filters for generating reports. Also, the mobile app, although convenient, can occasionally lag when syncing with the web version, which disrupts tracking accuracy for on-the-go users.

Pros

What I like most about Clockify is its simplicity and flexibility. It’s incredibly user-friendly, allowing me to track time across multiple projects and tasks with just a few clicks. The customizable reports are a huge plus, giving clear insights into how time is spent, making it easier to manage productivity and billing. I also appreciate the fact that it integrates seamlessly with other tools I use daily, like Trello and Asana. Plus, the free plan offers a generous amount of features, which is perfect for individuals or small teams.

Cons

What I liked least about Clockify is that while it offers a lot of features, the free version can feel somewhat limited compared to the paid plans. Some advanced functionalities, like team management and certain reporting options, are only available in the premium tiers. Additionally, I found the mobile app can be a bit clunky at times, which affects the overall user experience when trying to track time on the go. Lastly, I would appreciate more customization options for reports to better suit specific needs.

Pros

Ease of use. Once set up I can quickly switch from one client to another with no more than one press.

Cons

The kiosk requires login in each day for each user. I cannot have each worker have a kiosk copy so they can clock in as the move from job to job without my logging in or giving them my account password or upgrading subscription(recent change). Where the security in that? The kiosk also displays in a very tiny font for no reason making it unreadable without a magnifying glass. Workers find it easier to just send me their times, which defeats the reason for having the app.

Reasons for Switching to Clockify

Pros

I love how easy it is to use, and how simple it is to set up. It's missing none of the features needed to properly time-track, without having to spend half of your time doing the actual tracking. I also love the asynchronous capabilities of it. I can always add stuff later, or adjust some timings if I didn't have time to do so on the spot.

Cons

After 4 years of using Clockify I have only found one minor bug, concerning when I forget to stop my timer for multiple days, and I need to set the end time as 2+ days ago. It works great for one day ago, but more than that breaks it a bit. It wasn't hard to find a workaround to it, but it still would be good if it was fixed.

Pros

What I like most about Clockify is its incredible ease of use. The interface is intuitive, making it simple to navigate and utilize all its features. The reports generated are clear and concise, providing valuable insights into time allocation and project progress. It significantly streamlines the invoicing process with my clients, allowing me to bill them easily and efficiently. Additionally, the cost is reasonable, and the straightforward project management features make handling multiple projects hassle-free.

Cons

Honestly, there aren't many negative aspects to mention. However, I believe that adding more filter options could enhance the user experience even further. Enhanced filtering would allow for more customized views and reports, tailoring the data to specific needs. But in general, everything functions well, and this is a minor suggestion rather than a significant drawback.

It is easy to navigate and use for time tracking.
Provides valuable insights into productivity and project progress.
It has options to log/edit hours manually or use a timer, adapting to different working styles.

Cons

There can be delays or hiccups when syncing data between devices or across platforms especially when there are internet issues.

Pros

It is really quick and easy to use. Data entry is simple. Its layout is very well designed which makes navigation quick. It looks neat and uncluttered. It is extremely well priced. The reports are professional and look great, and offer lots of ways of reporting summaries and detail. I can get summary information for the week/month/year in a few seconds.

Cons

Reasons for Switching to Clockify

Pros

Clockify offers a user-friendly interface that makes it easy to navigate and use its features. The free version provides all the essential tools an individual needs, with additional paid features that are useful for organizations. It allows for the creation of multiple workspaces and projects, helping users organize tasks efficiently. Time tracking is simple to start, whether in the browser or through Clockify's apps available across different platforms. You can also mark tracked time as billable, specifying rates, which provides a clear picture of your earnings for the work you've completed.

Cons

I personally have no major complaints about Clockify. One minor drawback is the inability to color code tags, but that’s more of a nitpick.

Pros

I love Clockify and use it everyday. I like how easy it is to learn, set up, and export the time reports that I need.

Cons

I wish there was a way to create time budgets or to calculate client profitability using time spent and my monthly service fee. This may already be a feature and perhaps I just don't know where or how to use it. That is about the only thing I can think of that I do not have in clockify that I would like to use.

Pros

Accessibility- the app and chrome extension are easy to use and access. Reporting- I can get very granular with reports to see who is spending their time where, on what task and for what client which helps me track my profitability.

Cons

Only con is having to start and stop the clock. I came from a time keeping product that allowed you to just switch and assign it to a new project. But in the grand scheme of things, the pros outweigh this little con.

Pros

Clockify is easy to use and setup. I like the ease with which the data can be filtered and exported for different projects. We need to send some timesheet details to some of our customers on a weekly basis, Clockify made it really easy to set it one time and use the same settings to export the data as needed. It saves us a lot of manual work. Clockify is also great for keeping track of time consumed on a project vs total time allocated/estimated. The notifications on reaching a percentage of allocated time helps keeping projects within budget.

Cons

After an update, Clockify reports became very slow to load. The resolution was pretty easy, just a logout and re-login did the trick, but since I wasn't aware of this, I spent quite a bit of time dealing with a slow system. Some kind of tracking by the system to auto identify these kind of issues and displaying a suggested solution to the users will be a welcome addition.

Pros

I like that Clockify helps me track my time by task and I can use tags to filter. I also like how I can view hours by week, month, and year.

Cons

I wish that there was a way to separate hours into invoices. Let’s say I want to count 10 hours per invoice. Currently, I don't think there is a way to translate hours for specific clients into invoices. It would be helpful to be able to filter by the invoice number or find a workaround.

Clockify is a powerful, user-friendly time-tracking tool that's completely free, making it accessible for individuals and teams. Its simple one-click timer allows users to track time without distractions quickly. Plus, it offers detailed reports and project management features that help keep productivity on track.

Cons

One downside of Clockify is that some of its more advanced features, like customizable reporting and in-depth project tracking, are locked behind paid plans. The mobile app can also occasionally feel less intuitive than the desktop version. Lastly, it could benefit from more integrations with other tools to streamline workflows.

Pros

Clockify's biggest advantage is its generous free tier, which includes unlimited users and projects, making it ideal for teams of all sizes. It’s very easy to use, with a clean interface and simple time-tracking functionality. The ability to track time across different tasks, set billable rates, and generate basic reports without paying for a subscription is highly valuable. Additionally, its integrations with other popular project management tools, such as Trello and Asana, help streamline workflows across various platforms.

Cons

What I liked least about Clockify is the limited functionality in the free version when it comes to advanced reporting, invoicing, and analytics. These features, which are essential for in-depth project tracking and billing, are locked behind the paid plans. Additionally, the interface can sometimes feel cluttered or overwhelming with too many options on the screen, making navigation slightly less intuitive. Also, syncing between devices may occasionally lag, affecting real-time tracking across platforms.

Reasons for Switching to Clockify

Pros

There is no doubt that compared to other competitors, I consider that this platform has very fair prices for the needs that I need to cover within my company. The mobile application works very well to be able to monitor the staff at any time and see the progress of the different projects managed. The reports are very detailed, we can even see the price per hour individually, so it is very feasible when it comes to making metrics and determining if the price of the work is feasible in relation to the performance of each employee. I cannot complain about the user interface because I found it very comfortable from the first use, even its implementation has been very fast and efficient, so it did not take long to start applying this platform to the work environment.

Cons

Despite the efficiency of this platform, I cannot believe that the technical support is not the same when I have a problem. The response time is very long and the solutions are vague, practically most of the time they are internal problems of Clockify that must be resolved by the development team of this platform. Therefore, I have to wait for updates where these errors are corrected, causing me to lose control over the hours worked by employees.
