Time Boost vs. Toggl Track

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.

• Toggl integrates smoothly across multiple devices. I can seamlessly move from the field on my phone to the office on my computer and utilize Toggl the entire time.
• It has great customization. Setting up multiple customers in a variety of ways is easy and quick to do. We haven't found something we needed that we couldn't set up.
• The reporting is clean and informative. Reports can be generated for multiple criteria.

• 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.

Very easy to use, can enter projects and tasks on the fly, can use either a timer or enter hours later manually, the interface is simple and intuitive. Has a mobile app that is also easy to use.

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.
