Toggl Track Erfahrungen

Gutes Tool zum Zeit-Tracken

Kommentare: Insgesamt schätze ich Toggl für die Einfachheit und die Integrationen. Das Browser-Plugin sowie die App funktionieren gut, der Rest lässt sich über die WebApp einstellen.

Vorteile:

Ich habe mich für Toggl entschieden, da es perfekt zusammen mit ToDoIst funktioniert. So kann ich meine Aufgaben mit einem Klick mit tracken.

Nachteile:

Generell bin ich sehr zufrieden, nur eine Schnittstelle zu meinem Programm für die Rechnungsstellung wäre noch hilfreich.

Best Free Time Tracking Software in the Industry

Kommentare: It's a good time-tracking app for any kind of professional remote work.

Vorteile:

Tracking time task-wise, adding manual time if needed, and detailed PDF reports these are the best things in Toggl.

Nachteile:

Managing multiple projects can be difficult or may require a premium plan.

Robust time tracking tool useful for keeping on top of billing

Kommentare: I use this daily to record my work as I put time into various projects. The data entry systems are easy to use, and quick to process. The comprehensive reporting tools allow me to analyse the data as much as I need to. That it can be shared between colleagues working on the same project means that collecting data for billing is pretty straight forward.

Vorteile:

Being able to quickly record time entries, and categorise them into projects and tasks if the key benefit of using Toggl Track. It gives you enough flexibility and control to make tweaking these entries easy

Nachteile:

From time to time the site is not super responsive, and tasks you've entered don't appear as you expect. Thankfully this is in frequent, so doesn't outweigh the positives of this tool.

Clunky time tracking

Vorteile:

It does competently track time although much better options are available.

Nachteile:

The interface can be a barrier to time tracking. Often clunky to add in a new log which makes using it less attractive and easier to forget to do it.

I am so glad I switched to Toggl and my clients are too!

Kommentare: Time tracking has been pretty seamless since switching to Toggl. I love getting alerts that I left a timer running because I am notorious for forgetting to turn them off.

Vorteile:

I love the UI and ease of use with Toggl. It works really well for me as a Virtual Assistant. I time track all day.

Nachteile:

I would like to use more of the billing features but it is a paid benefit. I hope to try it out soon.

Toggl Track is giving a time of a life in time tracking.

Vorteile:

Toggl Track is easy to use and its intuitive interface and tools makes it so effortless to track time like a pro. It keeps us updated about our projects time by giving us access to time reports which shows clarity on how we are utilizing our budgeted time. It makes it painless for us to monitor our work hours and thanks to this insights we are able to improve on our work rate and delivery times.

Nachteile:

From the first time we started using Toggl Track, everything has been okay and effortless. No difficulties at all with it or any of its features.

Effortless time tracking with Toggl Track.

Kommentare: Toggl Track has been giving me a very interesting and productive experience in tracking and managing time. It keeps me updated and on the know of how am spending time on my tasks through very accurate time reports based on real time tracking.

Vorteile:

With Toggl Track, one can never go wrong with tracking time. It offers very accurate time reports which clearly shows how am spending each and ever minute of my day. The interface of the product is very simple and little is needed of the user to understand how to navigate through it. More to just tracking time, Toggl Track allows me to schedule my work accurately based on available time and day on my calendar.

Nachteile:

Am getting all i need from Toggl Track and am yet to experience any negativity about it so no dislikes.

Toggl Track Improves Productivity and Reduces Overwhelm!

Kommentare: Toggl Track helped me to get organized and stay focused. The overall experience—work is getting done—distractions, stress, and overwhelm are gone!

Vorteile:

Toggl Track's browser extension is so easy to use I don't have any excuses. It helps me manage my time by providing clarity and helping me to prioritize tasks and project activities. I love the Pomodoro feature, it keeps me focused and reminds me to take much-needed breaks. This feature has improved my mindset, productivity, and health. That's a BIG deal for me since distraction was a major problem. Also, the Google Calendar integration has become indispensable, I use it daily.

Nachteile:

I don't have any major negatives—there are some features that I'm just not using, but that really doesn't affect me much. Integrating Trello with Toggl Track was not as easy as Google Calendar, but that was on the Trello side, not Toggl.

Great tool for time tracking

Kommentare: I use this tool for time tracking allowing me to see in a very visual way how I spend my time. It is such a nice tool for entreprenurs and working from home people.

Vorteile:

I live that I can start tracking from just a few clicks, easy to use and colors help me see how I am spending my time. Also I like the graphics and reports which help me understand visualy my time and work.

Nachteile:

I don't like that when I stop tracking a specific activity for a week then it does not appear in the dropdown of suggested activities to track. That makes me waste time going back to the week I worked on that and start tracking the same activity from there or create new name for same activities ending in error tracking.

Toggl Track - Amazing & Free!

Kommentare: Excellent free time tracking web and app based piece of software. It’s really hard to beat. The best features are the ability to time track by project and this is as flexible as you need it to be. The chrome extension and browser access are great and means no need to reach for the phone or iPad when not convenient to do so.

Vorteile:

The basic free service meets all of my needs which includes the important task of time tracking for my work as a lawyer. This helps to keep track of the time I am spending on cases and other tasks. It further provides me with quick reference information for completing attendance notes for time recording.

Nachteile:

Sometimes when using the Google Chrome extension time tracking stops without warning.

Used the free version and loved the reports (weekly/monthly)

Vorteile:

Simple, straightforward time tracking - available on phone, laptop, etc. I loved the reports in particular.

Nachteile:

No con, I enjoyed the free version for 2-3 projects and had to pay for more.

Tracking and better time management

Kommentare: Toggl Track has been our main tool to increase work productivity, it has allowed us to exhaustively evaluate how we are taking advantage of time and in this way make the pertinent changes so that each member of the work team improves their work performance and take advantage of each minimum moment to streamline your tasks, in this way in a global way we allow ourselves to grow and achieve projects in a much more agile and efficient way. It allowed us to carry out a more detailed study on billable hours to manage a much more precise payroll payment and not leave anything out. Without a doubt, it gave us a complete look at the monitoring of activities and the time we are investing in it to give it the importance it requires and start dedicating much more attention to things that we are leaving out or automating the workflow much more and increasing our possibilities of success.

Vorteile:

Unique platform that fulfills important basic functions, participates in the monitoring of time and work performance of our work team, it is an integral contribution that helps us in the supervision of billable hours, how time is being used, and if they can be improved in certain aspects to make it even more useful. It allows us to structure the fulfillment and management of tasks to evaluate the most efficient time needed to carry out different projects, to determine the most optimal activity times. It can offer a very extensive database where it is possible to view the status of the work productivity of each team member, all in real time, it is also quite useful for assigning access control and distribution of activities. Likewise, it participates in the invoicing and payment of payroll, it helps us through various tools, undoubtedly easy to use, the development of payments and manage through the database the payment of payroll according to the number of billable hours.

Nachteile:

I do not find predominant disadvantages about the use of the platform, our use is recent and since we have been using and evaluating each of the tools together with its interface we discovered that it is quite comfortable, offers a good user experience and also the tools represent the utility we really need.

Time tracking, time sheets and time billing

Kommentare: Being a small company we needed something we could track easily without any complicated setup. And Toggl provided. We have used it for 7+ years and it is still going very well. The best things are time is displayed in decimals so it can be easily multiplied with rates. Clients love the summaries, colleagues love the simplicity.

Vorteile:

The ease of use of Toggl is unprecedented. After setting up projects and clients we are able to track very precisly tasks and projects for everyone. Switching form one task to another is dead simple and everyone who complains that his workflow is "not trackable" just should try this since changing projects even between calls takes only a click.

Nachteile:

Pricing gets a bit steep after a larger team is on board + the timesheet vs. billable hours are not accessible in the free tier. Setting up new users and adding them into a team is somewhat complicated - but that is an UI/UX problem.

Efficient and convenient work schedule tracking & management

Kommentare: I would recommend it for any beginner to medium level startup, freelancers or micro-businesses looking to improve work productivity. With generous free version feature one can easily learn and apply all the features required in daily work routine. As requirements grows then shift to paid version to get maximum features at reasonable price, which is worth for growing business.

Vorteile:

Most importantly it helped increase our productivity, decreased business cost and manage workflow efficiently. Best feature is project time tracking. Setting-up and managing employees timesheets is a feature we use on daily basis. One of the useful features we love is to adding tags to time entries for to classify projects. Can be used offline (when internet disconnects) to gather information and sync data when we get online automatically and then Reports generated are well presented and provide quite insightful view for our daily work activities. Easy to log time for tasks & sub tasks assigned to a all members of a team working on a project on different devices. Available as chrome extension and mobile app which we look forward to use for up coming projects. Integration with other collaboration tools like Asana and Trello saves much hassle.

Nachteile:

Some less frequently used features and tools are difficult to find when needed. Minor bugs are encountered when switching workspaces. There are also some tool limitation for planning and management. We hope it will be solved in future updates.

An incredibly useful tool for freelancers

Kommentare: I love Toggl Track!! As a freelancer, it's indispensable for keeping track of my hours by project or client so I can create invoices (outside of Toggl Track). It makes it easy to collect the data to calculate the time I need for certain types of work, and helps me keep track of my training hours, which I need for my professional organization. All in all, I can't live without it and recommend it highly.

Vorteile:

Its simplicity. Everything is quite intuitive--you can create multiple projects for each client, add descriptions, and add tags, and it's simple to run reports by those parameters. Generating the reports is straightforward and incredibly useful, and the data can be exported as CSV files (also as PDFs). It's handy having a desktop app (there's also a mobile app, which I don't use as much) with the option of running the timer directly in a browser--handy when I'm working away from my usual desktop.

Nachteile:

Occasionally, I switch from one computer with the Toggl Track desktop app to another computer and have some syncing issues. The timer I thought was still running would have stopped or not stopped and I end up with some odd blocks of time. I haven't yet been able to figure out the exact issue so as to prevent this from happening (not enough time to sync with the cloud?). It can also be a pain to find an older project and start that timer again (e.g., a project that I had to set aside for 2 months and then pick up again)--you have to search for the entry you want through the web interface and copy & paste the description into the timer and manually add the same tags to start recording again.

Best Time Tracker, hands down!

Kommentare: My time was slipping away and I didn't know where it was all going. Waiting for files to render means 4-10 minutes of time twiddling my thumbs; then picking up on some other task like replying to emails that I would like to do for the ten minutes. That quickly turns into 40 minutes and then the momentum is gone! I don't know how long Ive been working on what and then all of a sudden its 5pm and its all over! Toggl makes the day seem worth it. When you can accurately track your time you can see where you are slipping up; going over; losing money and it helps get over the pitfalls of a busy and variety filled work day. If you work with multiple clients, have many different types of tasks, or you want to know how much to bill a client (a function I didnt use it for as I work for myself) Toggl is the job. I can think of so many more uses for it that don't apply to me or my business but its robust and really well integrated with loads of other apps.

Vorteile:

Toggl is so easy to use! There is an auto function that gathers info on what you are doing on your computer and you can then review the items in 15 minute chunks; by app, by webpage or by document. Its such an easy way to automatically track your time so you aren't fussing with buttons etc. Really easy and beautiful interface too. The app integrations are great and work with apps like Asana and Trello really well.

Nachteile:

Some small bugs when switching from apps too quickly and the mobile app doesn't have the same amount of functionality as the desktop version (which is to be expected of course) Other than that its pretty solid.

A solid offering in the time-tracking space.

Kommentare: Overall, it does what I need to. I have tried many MANY time tracking softwares over the years, including the time tracker included with FreshBooks - which you would think I'd use as it integrates directly with my billing - but I kept coming back to and using Toggl, despite the few hiccups I encounter.

Vorteile:

The key for me here is its ability to integrate with my project management software: Asana. Beyond that, I think they have a good cross-platform presence with their easy-to-use mobile app and, desktop (Windows) app and web app; I use all 3 regularly but the desktop client the most. Oh yeah, and the Chrome extension.

Nachteile:

Its cross-platform nature also proves to be a challenge (at lest for me). There are 4 places I set it up (see Pros) and sometimes they conflict / send duplicate messages / aren't in sync or don't sync very quickly. If you're on one computer, this isn't an issue but when moving between devices this isn't as seamless as I'd like. Part of this might be attributed to my own connectivity challenges at times and the configuration of each client on every system. The thing is, I don't need notifications from the web app and desktop client and the desktop client on my laptop next to me. But the Chrome extension is required to sync with Asana and I prefer to use the desktop client when, well, I'm at my desktop. So... short of going in and honing which notifications show where, it remains an issue. I have done this, yet I tend to format my system a few times a year and having no way to "remember" these settings becomes a pain. I also spend more time than I'd like correcting tags, and making sure tasks are categorized properly. There's an odd bug in the Asana integration that forces me to use a mouse to add tags rather than keeping my hands on my keyboard. A small nitpick but it does mess with my flow.

Great for freelancers or anyone who needs to track time

Kommentare: My overall experience with Toggl Track is very positive. I use it as an individual, but I would also be happy to use it as a team if I had subcontractors.

Vorteile:

Toggl is free, and it's highly useful for documenting hourly work on projects. As a consultant, I use it to create documentation of my hours for my nonprofit clients whom I bill hourly. As a journalist, I might put a hundred hours into a story before I get paid — tracking that time helps me negotiate the rate I deserve later. When I'm juggling multiple clients or commitments, or very busy, this helps me feel like my work time has a concrete start and end point, too.

Nachteile:

I often leave the timer on, so I log back in and it says I've spent 100 hours on something — but this is easily fixable. I have no complaints with Toggl's functionality — and did I mention that the version for individual users is free?

Good choice for time tracking app

Kommentare: Despite being used to the interface of other software it was basically very similar so its operation was very simple. Perhaps because it is one of the oldest tools on the market in this area, toggl ends up being the most stable option I have experience with. In my time of use, I had situations in which toggl was available and the other tool was not, It happens the other way around as well, toggl also had problems, but they were in a much smaller amount.

Vorteile:

It provides a fast and simple interface to track time and manage tasks time spread directly integrated to Atlassian Jira with browser plugins.

Nachteile:

I use another software tool to perform a personal time tracking and toggl does not have a natural and out of the box plugin to it in a way I used toggl to control task level time span and another application to track project wide time span

Everyone Needs Timer

Kommentare: I love it. Since I started time tracking my tasks, I am an efficient person and it actually makes the whole thing more enjoyable and fun.

Vorteile:

- Who doesn't' need a timer? In my opinion, people should employ the use of timers to manage their tasks. It no doubt makes you more efficient. Like when you see that timer running, with that ticking sound, you want to race with it and hopefully finish your task at the time you planned to finish it. The moment you don't use a timer, its like there is no accountability. Most of the times you end up spending more time on tasks that you would have wanted to. - I have also noticed that the moment you don't use a timer when completing tasks, you are very prone to destructions in the middle of doing the tasks. - Toggle Track gives you all the functionalities you would need in a timer - reporting, sound functionality, it's also pretty easy to use. It is also a free app!- I also like that I can easily access it via my smart phone and through my browser when am on my laptop. That is pretty convenient for me.

Nachteile:

There is nothing I can say I do not like about Toggle Track at this point. Maybe I can mention a wish. I wish Toggle Track can be integrated with Microsoft To and Google Tasks to work together, because I use Microsoft To Do and Google tasks as my to apps but both do not have an inbuilt timer functionality.

Toggl is a great tool to centrally manage/track time against our projects

Kommentare: I have had no issues with using Toggl. We have been using it since before it did all of the extra cool stuff for project management, etc. so the core of the application has always been a great tool for us.

Vorteile:

Toggle is very easy to use. The Windows app has an easy punch in and punch out function allowing quick changes in time management.The integration with JIRA (our task management software for development projects) has made the process even simpler.The support team for toggle surprise me by their greatness every time I need them - it is rare to find a company with a responsive and helpful support team available. I have yet to leave a support chat unsatisfied or frustrated.

Nachteile:

Because this is mandatory I'll insert the one thing I don't like. I think the tiered pricing for features can be a bit annoying. As features are added to the time tracking tool they are at an additional cost which I'm not looking to increase the costs of the tool at this time but would like to see additional features within the licensed product I use as it is good to have ongoing improvements.

Time management has never been so easy!

Kommentare: It is great! After our first week with Toggl, my son was able to decrease the amount of time he spent getting distracted by a full hour each day. When I showed him just how much time he was spending on each class, and how much quicker he finished his assignments when he just focused he was able to see the positives.

Vorteile:

I use Toggl to track both mine and my child's schoolwork on a daily basis. While he is simply navigating third grade compared to my taking classes to receive my bachelor's degree, Toggl helps us both immensely. The ability to track how much time you spend on each class is very helpful and let's you see just how productive you are. You can see how much time you have spent on a specific task/class or during a specific time period. This allows you to see which areas you might be spending too much time on. Toggl has shown me that I was spending roughly the same amount of time working on each classes' assignments, apart from one class. I further noted that I spent an additional 30 minutes a day finishing my work for Accounting and planned my future days accordingly. What I really love about it is how it allows me to track how much time my son is spending on each of his classes, especially since he is in virtual online school this year. There have been times where instead of learning his multiplication problems in Math, I have found him watching videos on Youtube and with Toggl tracking how much time he spends on each class I can easily see when and where he is getting distracted or may need help.

Nachteile:

It is much better to use Toggl on a desktop VS your phone, in my opinion. The text is very small and hard to read on the phone.

Super simple clean time tracking software, though recent changes make it less useful

Kommentare: It's the best cloud based time tracking option out there, period.

Vorteile:

I love that Toggl is quick to set up new projects and get to work. It shouldn't be a big deal to start tracking your time, because it's such a minimalistic task, but a lot of time trackers make it a big thing to start a project. I also like that it's cloud based, so no matter which office I'm working from, it's not a big deal. I like that it takes time entries in various formats (like I can type in 1h, or 60:00, or 1:00 and it understands them all), and I like that it's painless to switch projects (which I do every time a co-worker comes to ask me a question).

Nachteile:

I don't like the recent changes that don't let you see your history without generating a report. I also wish it integrated with Google Calendar/Outlook and would automatically import meetings/scheduled events and tag them with the correct project (or ask me if they ought to be tagged). I also don't like that it runs until you turn it off, without reminders or updates - like it'll run 8 hours and send me a reminder, but if I ignore that single note, it stops. I would like it to send multiple updates, or have the ability to cut off, and to send me a notification/alert to start it again the next morning, because sometimes I'll forget and come back two days later to find 48 hours tracked to a single project.

Effective tool for time optimization

Kommentare: I consider Toggl Track an essential tool for any office manager looking to optimize time management and improve their team's productivity. The platform offers a comprehensive feature set and excellent value for money.

Vorteile:

I love how this platform allows me to effectively track time spent on different tasks and projects. The ability to generate custom reports is another of my favorite features, as it allows me to analyze my team's performance and make informed decisions to improve productivity. In addition, Toggl Track's integration with other popular tools, such as Asana and Trello, streamlines my workflow and saves time on my daily tasks.

Nachteile:

This platform is very effective, but I wish they would include more customization options in the reports.

The easiest to use time tracker out there

Kommentare: Go for it if you need to start tracking your time without every beginning of an entry requiring you to type in a load information before the timer starts. Try with patience if you plan to use the browser version and the app simultaneously as the sync is way off. If you only stick to a single device to start and stop, be it the mobile app or browser version - it's all good. P.S. It might be that the desktop app solves this issue, but I'm not overly fond of installing something separately.

Vorteile:

+ I needed something that I can start and edit later to avoid distractions. This does it perfectly. You can start a timer and give it a description and project later (a surprisingly small amount of products had this). + A great set of features even for a free user (report exports, long history). + Handy renaming of more than a single entry.

Nachteile:

- The one and only thing that frustrates me is the awful sync between the desktop and mobile. I have since stopped using the mobile app and keep a tab open on my PC to start and stop when I need it. Not a huge issue for me as time tracking is usually work related.
