TMetric

TMetric from the perspective of a Python developer

Kommentare: Our main business problem is managing remote work. TMetric allows me to do that easily and transparently.

Vorteile:

I like the fact that there are so many features! The add-on for Firefox is very solid. This allows me to create tasks from within Asana for example. I like the fact that I can easily track my time working.

Nachteile:

It's a bit intrusive sometimes, but this can be configured.

Great value - time tracking

Kommentare: Overall very satisfied.

Vorteile:

TMetric is exactly what I was looking for as my business continues to grow. I manage multiple business clients and frequently get interrupted or have to switch between tracking time for each client as a phone call or email comes through. TMetric let's me easily switch to a different client and then resume what I was working on previously. It also makes billing my clients easy, as it syncs with Quickbooks Online.

Nachteile:

I would like to see more options in reporting. It would also be great to see what my billable hours/balance is for the month in a report, but the only option is per each week.

In Betracht gezogene Alternativen: QuickBooks Time

Warum TMetric gewählt wurde: Needed to easily track time back and forth between customers.

Gründe für den Wechsel zu TMetric: Functionality was what I needed.

TMetric for asana

Vorteile:

It is quite easy to use for the general time tracking purpose

Nachteile:

It is not fully integrated with asana, because, when starting to work with a task in asana, the project must be created into TMetric platform. Otherwise, you see tasks inside "No project". Another solution, you need to make a corrections to attach tasks to the projects. It could be better. Also, It could have "default" lunch break, when the timer may be stopped automatically (should be chosen manualy).

Great for freelancers! Works well.

Kommentare: Overall, I've enjoyed using TMetric, it far outperforms any other system I've used in the past and I'll definitely be sticking with it for the long haul.

Vorteile:

I love that I can track time for multiple clients with just a few clicks. The end of the week summaries are perfect and allow for quick and easy invoicing without too much effort.

Nachteile:

The software can be a tad glitchy at times, but I've found that some patience and a quick refresh usually gets things flowing smoothly again.

Essential software for a consultant with multiple clients & tasks

Kommentare: I'm spending much less time on invoicing and time tracking than I used to---MUCH less. Used to take me an hour or two monthly to sort everything out and bill clients. Now I'm done in about 10 minutes, tops.

Vorteile:

I love the ease of creating and starting timers for tasks, and that the software takes care of everything. I click to start a timer, click to end a timer--I don't have to think about the details until I choose an invoice to create, and those timed tasks then auto-magically appear on the right invoice. I can't believe I used to do all of this in spreadsheets! :O

Nachteile:

Figuring where things are the first time took a small bit of time, but the online help streamlined the process.

Time Tracking Made Easy

Kommentare: We needed to see how long we were taking on specific tasks to determine if we were charging enough for our services.

Vorteile:

I liked the straight forward interface which everyone learned quickly.

Nachteile:

What I least like is that only admins can add people to projects. There are occasions when it would be nice to just have someone login their time on a project without having to be added to the whole team process.

In Betracht gezogene Alternativen: QuickBooks Time

Warum TMetric gewählt wurde: Costly and cumbersome

Gründe für den Wechsel zu TMetric: Even though Tsheets integrates with QuickBooks it is a cumbersome program, so Tmetric won by ease of use and implementation.

Great time tracker for freelance work

Kommentare: This is a great value for freelancers. When I realized the integration with quickbooks was not going to work in my particular set up I tried other free time trackers and quickly decided to just pay for TMetric even though I couldn't get the integration.

Vorteile:

I like the ability to segment hours by client and then also tag the time with separate attributes that I can use to track certain projects within a customers work scope.

Nachteile:

I originally chose this software for the ability to integrate with Quickbooks as a way to streamline my invoicing process each month. When I struggled with the integration I quickly realized I would have to upgrade my quickbooks account to take advantage of this feature.

In Betracht gezogene Alternativen: Gusto und QuickBooks Time

Gründe für den Wechsel zu TMetric: It was inexpensive, but had the features I needed, not fancy but functional

Best timetracker I've found

Kommentare: My time tracking is more accurate now than ever. I'm not having to fabricate time entries when they were missed.

Vorteile:

App provides a solid set of ways to start timers (Chrome extension, web app, mobile app) but if you forget to start the timer, which I often do, the desktop activity monitor makes it so easy to fill in the blanks.

Nachteile:

It could have a prettier UI. The PC app in particular. And the PC app could have features allowing a timer to stay on screen in an unobtrusive way.

In Betracht gezogene Alternativen: Time Tracker und Harvest

Warum TMetric gewählt wurde: Toggl was fine for starting timers, but flopped when it came to figuring out what I had been doing if I had to go back and create a time entry after the fact.

my sepia review

Kommentare: It's easy to use and It helps to see how much time your team spend un each Project and each tag

Vorteile:

The time tracking, It helps a lot and I like too the easy to use the platform, although the usability can be improved.

Nachteile:

The reports, i would like It to be more peronalized

In Betracht gezogene Alternativen: Harvest

Gründe für den Wechsel zu TMetric: I like the integration with asana and Google

Simple, easy time tracking

Kommentare: Does exactly what I need and would highly recommend

Vorteile:

I loved how easy this software was to set up and how I can easily track the time each task takes using the Chrome extension on my browser

Nachteile:

It took some time to get my time estimates manually transferred from my old software, but the team did eventually sort this and it has worked perfectly since

Warum TMetric gewählt wurde: Good deal on AppSumo at the time

Zuvor genutzte Software: Clockify

Gründe für den Wechsel zu TMetric: Great value for money and will grow with my business

Helps me stay organized

Kommentare: I often split my time across multiple projects and tasks. TMetric helps me keep everything organized so I can be sure I'm submitting my time to the right clients. It also helps me make sure I'm keeping my hours in the range of 40/wk, and not going notably over or under.

Vorteile:

One of the big things that led to picking TMetric over others is the ability to toggle between tasks so easily by just restarting an existing task. Other similar software makes you stop the previous task first, which just feels clunky and irritates me. I also like the flexibility of various reports. I use most of them when I sort out my time for the week.

Nachteile:

I wish I could customize the timeframe on the Time Entry page for its calculation of how many hours you are ahead/behind. It's based on the current month, and sometimes the new month starts mid-week, so it makes it hard to see at a glance how the week is. It would be nice if the notes about a time entry could be a paragraph box, and if those could be per-project per-day. I have to enter my final time entry for the week into another application for my boss, and if I write up my timesheet notes in TMetric, it's a pain to get them into a single paragraph. So I make TMetric notes super short/simple and my real notes are in OneNote.

Perfect Time Tracking Tool

Vorteile:

One of my favorite things about TMetric is its integration with Asana. I am a freelance web designer and website manager and I use Asana to help me keep track of all of my daily tasks that need to be performed for all of my clients and when I'm working on a big project. I needed an easy way to keep track of my time so I knew how long tasks were taking me to complete. TMetric was and easy choice. The free plan gave me exactly what I needed, it was super easy to hook in to asana and my chrome browser and now I am tracking everything. I also love that I can run reports so I can see where I am spending most of my time. As a freelance designer every penny counts and the fact that I get all this functionality for free is a huge win!

Nachteile:

I honestly have nothing bad to say about this software, it met my needs perfectly.

In Betracht gezogene Alternativen: Harvest

Gründe für den Wechsel zu TMetric: TMetric had everything I needed, for FREE!

The Time tracker I was looking for as a freelancer

Vorteile:

As a freelancer (Web/Software Developent) I found almost every feature that I needed working for different clients with their respective projects and tasks. Some projects run on an hourly rate basis, others have their budgets. You can combine both. I also time track my own learning and other non-earning processes, so that in the end of the month I can see the time spent on commercial as well as non-commercial tasks. The reports are really nice. I use submit them together with the invoice to the respective clients, making my month's work transparent to them. The application is very intuitive. You see only what you really need. You have type-ahead suggestions for new tasks based on what you have already entered in the past. There are some team functionalities, which I don't use as a freelancer, but which could be pretty useful if you work in team. The app runs comfortably synchron on any device.

Nachteile:

The app design is not well suitable for a small viewport (smartphone). It gets horizontally scrollable, which is not really comfortable. Probably it's a general problem for timelines, but I hope there could be a solution for that in the future. A mobile app would be nice too.

Really recomend!

Vorteile:

Tmetric made the simplest time tracking. We can track every single minute,.

Nachteile:

A little expensive just for simple software

Simple, easy, effective

Kommentare: Tmetric has saved me buckets of time, effort and frustration in keeping track of time spent on a range of projects and tasks. I'm naturally bad at record keeping but with Tmetric time tracking is a breeze.

Vorteile:

I have tried various online productivity tools, and Tmetric is the only one I've stayed with. Easy, intuitive and responsive interface, so little time and effort required. I use Tmetric to track my own billable work time and the report I generate within seconds at the end of the month within seconds, fully meets my needs.

Nachteile:

Honestly for the use I put it to, I've not come across any challenges or shortcomings.

Good way to track time within asana

Kommentare: After using TMetric as a time tracker, it is way easier to do estimates for upcoming projects.

Vorteile:

I am using Asana and TMetric allows me to track my time without going to another app.

Nachteile:

It was hard to find the way how to see the time spent on projects of my colleagues.

A real time and money saver.

Kommentare: With TMetric all billable time is captured, leading to an increase in revenue.

Vorteile:

Time tracking is easy with TMetric- it provides helpful reminders to start tracking, pause tracking and switch tasks, which can help users keep their tracking accurate. The software use reports (optional) helps give clients and administrators additional peace of mind that the time logged is accurate and focused time. Linking to Quickbooks is a real time-saver, enabling time to be easily and accurately invoiced. With TMetric all billable time is captured, leading to an increase in revenue.

Nachteile:

Some of the user interfaces is slightly out-dated in the desktop app, but this does not impact use, and the web-app is easy and clean to use.

Helpful tool for a small business owner

Vorteile:

It helps me keep track of how much time I'm allocating to each client. It helps maintain strong time management skills across multiple projects and makes billing easier.

Nachteile:

I wish it was easier to update the tasks (prompted every 30 minutes) without having to stop tracking and then starting tracking again. It should be easier to just edit the task/project per client/project.

Data is power

Kommentare: TMetric is a innovative tool, that initially I was extremely resistant too, as I didn't understand the value in recording time. After 1 whole month of recording time, I immediately saw the benefit. Even though I have been working in a similar way for a long time, I did not truly understand how much time I lost. I knew there was parts of my day to day work I needed to improve, but couldn't fully pinpoint where the churn of time was. Luckily, Tmetric allows me to see just how much time I TRULY spend with tasks not important to my real work, and where I can best spend that time instead. The UI is brilliant now. Other then the below improvement suggestion, it is actually very smooth to use. Easy to learn and easy to master. Improvements:
I would like to see it better predict what tasks I am putting in. There are some tasks, especially in the morning, I feel it could be smart and know I always have a stand-up at 9:30AM in the week if i log time that day. Then, If I happen not too, it would be easier for me to remove, rather then keep selecting this on a day to day basis.

Vorteile:

Time logging Reporting Group subsets of tasks Finding work churns Truly understanding resource allocation

Nachteile:

Could better predict a user's day to day tasks Reporting UI took a while to understand how to view tasks...

A perfect tool for track my daily task

Kommentare: I had used tools like this in my desktop enviroment for years but I lost time every day writing the name of the task, project etc.. Since I use tmetric I can focus in my work without afraid of lossing my time because i didnt write.

Vorteile:

The most important thing for me is that you have not to write anything. There is a perfect integration between tools like redmine, github, google anf tmetric. So you don't need to do anything, just click on "start time" and the program do everithing.

Nachteile:

Nothing. I think this is a perfect tool for mine.

Makes life easy

Kommentare: The integration with Asana is much smoother and hassle-free than most of the other options out there.

Vorteile:

- The integration with Asana makes it a pleasure to use on a daily basis - It's very simple to make adjustments to time entries - Reports have a clean design and flexible enough to see how you spend your time

Nachteile:

- It doesn't seem to support multiple workspaces from Asana

Perfect tracking solution

Kommentare: I had a couple of very small problems with it within my years of using the app. Everytime I submitted and tried to contact the support they were friendly and patched things up real quick- Even though I was a free user. I wouldn't trade this app for the world!

Vorteile:

There is a lot that TMetric has to offer but for me two things stand out: 1. The ability to track time: you have various plugins (desktop,in browser) or you can just go to your in app and track tiime. Also it even easier to track time with various tools: asana, jira,trello etc. It adds a task name also so you don't have to bother with that 2. Reporting: The reports are great. When I send my clients the reports on the end of the month they are very pleased. also it is great overview to monitor your self progress.

Nachteile:

The when having subtasks on Trello it would be usefull to get the names of the parent task as well as the subtask

A simple Time tracker.

Vorteile:

Signup is very easy and no hassle to set it up with trello. It is a simple time tracking application which has a lot of bonus feature to see. I started creating a project and adding todos, it is really not the way but I need to check my time. The reporting is nice and easy. I must say I am impressed with the timeline. The desktop application gives me convenient to work offline but still track my time. Adding manual time to the backlog is smooth and fast.

Nachteile:

Not really. everything workes fine for me and manual time adding is work without any trouble. The UI is old school but I like retro looks so it is fine for me.

GREAT Timekeeping tool

Vorteile:

Simple design Tracking Detailed report is very useful

Nachteile:

It crashes sometimes. It runs more than 12 hours and ask user to fix the timer next day.

Highly Recommend

Vorteile:

Perfect solution for all companies in any industry. Easy to implement and manage. Easy access for employees.

Nachteile:

Price is an issue especially since Quickbooks took it over. Should be included with Quickbooks and possibly kept as a stand alone price for individuals without QBO.
