Even down to creating invoices from within the app\! And the ability to use this with my iPhone, is simply sublime\! The syncing is superb, there have been a few issues, but the developer is pro-active, and will bend over backwards to help\! > > **Cons**: I honestly have no complaints, and this is strange for me, as I am very hard to please, but OfficeTime is hands down the most brilliant piece of software is it fair to say it is too perfect? :) My only request is a simple button to add a lunch stop rather than pausing\! > > I used this when working onsite at companies to time my time there... and in my home studio when working on projects to cost the jobs I work on. I recently had a stroke and lost my freelance business while I recovered, but this app came in handy again when I did a stint as a Hall Keeper (a glorified janitor) at my town hall, and I had to time my hours, the iPhone partner app made short work of that\! Overall, this application is just very very good at what it does\! ----- ### "Fast and Easy Project Time Tracking for Mac and PC" — 5.0/5 > **Don** | *5 May 2020* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Officetime is easy to use. It works wherever you are - on Mac, PC, iPhone and even Apple Watch. One of my biggest sticking points with time tracking solutions in the past is that I'd often walk away from my desk and forget to stop the tracking, or neglect to start it when I jumped into a project. These were time consuming errors to backtrack and fix to the point where I'd get to the end of a project and feel that the calculated time wasn't very accurate. OfficeTime fixes that by paying attention to your computer interaction (mouse movements, keyboard typing) and if it notices inactivity for a preset period of time it pops up a small window that allows, with one click, the ability to go fix the clock. You can keep it as is, subtract "x" minutes based on how long the software has recognized you've been idle, or add "x" minutes to a different project. This feature is a life saver. I can't tell you how many times I've walked away to go grab lunch or join a meeting and forgot to stop the clock. Officetime makes correcting those errors effortless. Outside of that, it's very easy to add and adjust timing if you forget to start the clock on time. Projects can be color coded for a quick visual overview of what items in the list tie to which projects. It's also very easy to print out reports and charts. I do not use the software for invoicing so I can't comment on those features. Support is also stellar. > > **Cons**: I can't really think of any cons. It's a simple, and thus fast, time tracking software. Some people might complain that it doesn't have a few more robust project management features, but I think that's outside of what it's made to do. It's lean, and that helps to keep it easy to use and fast. > > Officetime is ideal for being able to look back at how many hours a project took me to complete. As a result, I am able to far more accurately predict the time and cost necessary to complete similar future projects. This is a huge confidence boost in my ability to accurately quote out projects, which in the end, also makes my clients (and employer) happy. It's invaluable information when you have it available. What steps of a project are taking the most time? Can you improve that time a step requires (and ROI) by implementing new software or hardware solutions that would speed that up? Does one client repeatably request change after change while another is typically one review and done? You can figure out all of this by tracking projects, clients, and time through OfficeTime. ----- ### "The least-worst Logging App by far" — 3.0/5 > **Tim** | *30 March 2017* | Design | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Global menu system, organisational concepts, prompts with optoins to assign 'unattended' (no keystroke) time. > > **Cons**: UX within the app when editing records ,lack of a unified view when running multiple paused timers. > > All logging apps are awful - I've tried them all. Again and again. So, why on earth have I stuck with this app for over 10 years (count 'em), awaiting a version 2.0 throughout that time? TWO things: how much muscle memory control is available WITHOUT SWITCHING APPS via the global menu - a menu that's practically an ecosystem in its own right. And the way Officetime handles unattended time. Officetime can ask you after a preference settable time to choose one of 3 options: if you want to continue logging to the last timer, not log the time, OR (and this is I think unique) apply the time to a different project. This feature is GOLD. The clunky feel of the UI, the lack of a practically usable unified window of multiple projects for many use cases - these are ghastly tradeoffs (beginning to be addressed in the pre-alpha version I've been able to test). Issues which could probably addressed with a dot level update in the meantime. Before another decade goes by would be good. I will say, that the developer has been very responsive with support including helping with workarounds for self-inflicted wounds (corrupted data, migrations etc), and dot level updates have been ongoing. But back to the UX: most loggers make the assumption that you're happy to spend time switching apps, (or worse still going to a webpage), filling in stuff, and going back out to what you were doing before. Bad call. The best logging app is one that ticks away in the background prompting appropriately and remaining accessible without breaking your workflow. What happens after that can matter, but billings and reports etc are secondary. it's the data capture that's most critical. All time-logging software is awful (unless having to go onto a website to log time, or switch apps unnecessarily is your kind of fun), but because Officetime allows me to mostly stay focussed on my actual work and only interrupts usefully to check that unattended time is logged properly, I put up with such significant trade-offs. So with priority \#1 done so right, its the UX post-data-capture and pre-reports which Officetime is well overdue addressing: Depending on your use case, (like the need to have multiple timers paused, as you switch between jobs) you may find yourself with 2343498 open Officetime windows. So I heartily recommend this app, as well as leaning on the developer to ramp up the most critically needed UX improvements. ----- ### "Easy to use time tracker" — 5.0/5 > **Maleta** | *8 January 2019* | Graphic Design | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love that I can track multiple clients and multiple projects for those clients with OfficeTime. Then I can select multiple projects and easily see how much time I have spent for a client. > > **Cons**: My least favorite think about OfficeTime is that if I forget to pause or turn it off when I'm finished working on a project, it continues to track and when I come back to the computer after the extended time, my tracked time is incorrect. The software does recognize that I have been away and allows me to remove the excess time, but because of my error, I have to manually adjust the time. > > My experience with OfficeTime has been very good. It provides me with the tools I need to accurately keep track of time I spend on projects for my various clients and projects. ----- ### "OfficeTime" — 4.0/5 > **Dan** | *5 August 2019* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: A great simple product that allows you to manage your time for billable hours. The product works with iOS and Android phones/tablets. It will allow you to sync data and clients with the above mentioned to either a laptop or desktop. It will also allow you to create invoices for clients on the fly, or after you have finished your work on site. > > **Cons**: Not many that I can think of, the product is now going thru a version 2.0, a lot of input from the individuals that are Beta testing the product. A little confusing sometimes, but it seems to be going in the right direction. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/128585/officetime?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/128585/officetime) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
