Likelihood to Recommend We love how customizable ClickTime is for tracking billable client and program hours. It does a great job of reporting each pay period. We simply wish the mobile interface was more feature-rich. Because we can only specify how long someone worked (and not the specific time of day those hours were at) on the mobile platform it makes it very difficult for us to tell if someone was working inside or outside of their standard business contract day.
Read full review It's definitely well suited for all organizations with knowledge workers who use computers to do their work and are able to log in and enter their time on a regular basis. I've always had access to it as part of my job and love using SpringAhead. It may be less appropriate in a role where the worker does not have regular access to a computer to enter their hours digitally.
Read full review Pros Easy to use once you get the hang of it. Many useful features in one place. Many options available when needing to drill-down in detail or analyze time categories. Read full review Allows for tracking of time very easily. Users can add all their project's time in one place instead of drilling into each project. Managers can approve their team's time all in one place. We do not need to drill down to find the info and approve. Users who don't report to the manager but are part of the project can still be approved by the project manager. Reports are easy to read when looking at historical information. Reports can be run with multiple parameters that the user needs. Read full review Cons The ClickTime app works very well and is simple to use, however, I wish to see regular updates to improve the design and the layout of the app. The custom reports and templates for reporting hours or expense report should be updated regularly to include more custom reports. Overall, ClickTime does a good job, just a bit of work on the website design and ClickTime App would make the experience feel better while using it.

Read full review Alternatives Considered ClickTime is the first product of its kind I have had to use at work. Previous methods were always based in Excel documents and involved a lot more manual and redundant work for the same end result. It would be great if there were a better tie to our project management tools for time estimation, but it does the trick.
Read full review We selected SpringAhead because of price and usability. This tool is easy to set up and configure. It is a cloud application allowing access from anywhere. There were no training requirements. When you have a small use case this tool is the way to go. We moved off SpringAhead to get more functionality and it has required a lot more training and effort to maintain and utilize
