Toggl Track
Chose Toggl Track
I've used spreadsheets in the past to track time but Toggl Track is more accurate because of the inactivity warnings.
Chose Toggl Track
I have used TickSpot before, but it was implemented by my workplace and not my choice. I thought it was fine, nothing superlative I would tell my friends about like Toggl, but I did like time tracking as a concept. I remember recording my time retroactively versus in real time. …
Chose Toggl Track
One year ago I compared it to several tools, trying to use them in parallel. Now I don't remember the exact names of those tools, but Toggl was the best for its simplicity. It is easier to use, with fewer clicks and hence less destruction
Chose Toggl Track
The key for us was the fact that Toggl has a desktop app allowing you to easily track time in realtime rather than having to go back and log it after the fact. This ensured much higher accuracy on our time tracking and made it so people tracked their time in real time rather …
Chose Toggl Track
Toggl is superior to the other apps I've used (some I couldn't remember the names of) because of one thing: simplicity and UI/UX. I hate overcomplicated apps, and I hate ugly UI/UX even more.

Toggl has great UI/UX and it does everything I need it to do in the simplest possible …
Chose Toggl Track
I don't recall using something so simply automated like Toggl in the past, although I have used more complicated automated timesheets years ago. I chose it when it was recommended by some online tech review, and thought I'd give it a shot. It works really well as a laptop app.
Chose Toggl Track
Toggl's user interface takes all the work out of creating time management documents. Projects are pre-loaded into the interface, and switching is a breeze. Toggling time on and off is literally one click, and generating reports takes no time at all. Truly a time saver for …
Chose Toggl Track
Toggl is a project/client-based. As a micro agency, we don't have the need to monitor employees which is why Toggl was the better choice.
Chose Toggl Track
I've tried various other time tracking tools but I've been most impressed by Toggl because of the simplicity and functionality. I don't need a big complex program, I just need a little app that helps me track time and stays out of the way. And, it helps that it's free.
Chose Toggl Track
The law firm I do work for already chose Toggl. I've never used a time-keeping software like it before, but I think it's extremely effective.
Chose Toggl Track
Harvest has a much more integrated feel for desktop and mobile and the reporting is much, much quicker in terms of time spent. There is also a much clearer functionality to log expenses. It is also more responsive in terms of starting and stopping the watch and setting up …
Chose Toggl Track
We have not used any other applications that function in similar ways to Toggl.
Chose Toggl Track
Toggl is just always available on my desktop, it's low bandwidth and doesn't consume a lot of system resources, and entering time is flexible and intuitive. All other programs I've tried require you to stop what you're doing to enter a new project or a new client. Not with …
Chose Toggl Track
Toggl is easily the best time tracking tool we've used. We have tested any others for less than a week. We've been working with Toggl for about a year and see no need to test additional tools. It does what we need, the pricing is right and the flexibility is right.
Chose Toggl Track
Toggl has the best price-per-feature, and a superior user interface for our use case. It doesn't require purchase of an expensive suite of tools, and is seamless to use in daily workflow.
Chose Toggl Track
Rocket Matter is far more sophisticated and better suited to a law office that has a high volume of matters that are billed by the hour. Otherwise, toggl is far simpler and easier to start using office wide.
Chose Toggl Track
I didn't really look into other products. I saw the integration with Trello and decided to check it out.
Chose Toggl Track
Toggl is sleeker and so much more user-friendly than Time Doctor. The Chrome extension with the intuitive power button icon really does increase compliance, which I think is one of the most important, and sometimes overlooked, considerations when choosing a new software for …
Chose Toggl Track
We had previously used Harvest. It was a good solution too but as soon as we made the move to Toggl, we knew we had made the right choice. It just felt right.
Chose Toggl Track
I use Toggl to get an hourly rate for every single task, so I can estimate a current rate and negotiate rates for new clients and projects. I use Toggl concurrently with any other time and task trackers that are required for hourly jobs on freelance hubs, such as Upwork and …
Chose Toggl Track
Toggl is the best simple time tracking app that I've found. It performs best when that's all you're asking to do and you don't try to turn it into your invoicing software or project management app. I selected Toggl because it provides detailed time tracking and has a great …
Chose Toggl Track
We compared it with a few web-based tools and with Office 365 and at that time chose to go for a Toggl license. This was quick to set up and did what it had to do. Nothing more, nothing less. With the other solutions, this would be more involved as they are more complete …
Chose Toggl Track
Thanks to Toggle I could finally forget about time sheets. It does all the calculations for you. Now I do not start any task without hitting "start" with Toggl. It also helps me to control workload of the entire team. The speed and ease of use it true. The app is very light and …
Chose Toggl Track
I used the timer within Teamwork Projects and it worked well. I don't use the software anymore so can't choose to use that anymore. The time is basic in comparison to the Toggl timer but it was seamless with invoicing.

I have been using Toggl for about seven years now, and I absolutely love it. It keeps me on track with the tasks I complete throughout the day. Tracking my time makes me more accountable for the work I produce and how much time my work takes. Having the breakdown of my tasks helps inform decisions on hiring support staff. I can see exactly where my time goes and then formulate a strategy to either bring in more help, delegate work, or re-prioritize. When coupled with other productivity apps (I particularly use ToDoist), you can unlock even more of Toggl's power. Toggl Track isn't so much a checklist tool--it's a time tracker; but when I integrate my to-do app with the time tracking, I can quickly and easily switch between tasks without disrupting workflow.

Cons
  • Backlsh need to improve their UI design
Read full review
  • The Mac App is great, but sometimes I miss the notification when the Pomodoro timer goes off... I wish it were more intrusive, so to speak, so that it would be impossible to miss the end of the pomodoro session.
  • I wish there was a way to automatically send reports via slack at the end of the week.
  • I would love to have some different visual themes. I don't particularly like the color choices they've made after the rebrand.

I haven't needed much support from Toggl, as it's mostly come from a small team trying out the tool. I'm not entirely sure what the best way to reach them would be if I did need them. I'm also not sure how responsive they would be to support requests. But I think it's positive that I have not needed them

I have used TickSpot before, but it was implemented by my workplace and not my choice. I thought it was fine, nothing superlative I would tell my friends about like Toggl, but I did like time tracking as a concept. I remember recording my time retroactively versus in real time. But my needs were also different at that time, because I was a full-time employee trying to give management an idea of how long tasks took me versus generating the information for myself. When I started freelancing three years ago, I looked up free time tracking apps because I did miss time tracking. I may have tried a few briefly, but I found Toggl fairly quickly and realized how well it suited my needs. Been together ever since! I'm sure there are other tools out there but I don't care to look because I'm happy with Toggl and get free use.

  • My timetracking needs are simple, so this is a great tool for me. Start the timer, stop the timer as client work is performed, whether that is uninterrupted time or not.
  • It is very easy to review work time invested for each of my clients, making it easy for me to track my daily time and review monthly hours for preparing invoices.
  • Daily time is automatically aggregated.
  • Each time entry can be tagged with work activity, or projects can be segmented and time assigned to the segments with start and stop times.
