Overall Satisfaction with Toggl

I originally started using Toggl due to the project management tool I was using not having a timer facility. I use it and I also request my contractors use it also to track their time on specific tasks.
  • You can easily view detailed reports within a data range and make changes to the details by simply clicking on text and typing.
  • You can export a clear and well laid out PDF (or CSV) of the time report to use. I upload to Xero to mark against an invoice.
  • The timer carries on even if you accidentally close the browser window.
  • You get a reminder if you have forgotten to turn the timer off after a long time.
  • I haven't experienced anything that I felt was clunky or missing - good work!
  • A positive impact as I am able to invoice for all time spent on a project.
  • I am able to export reports as proof of work to compliment my invoices in case a client wants to view the details.
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 recommend using Toggl for contractors to record their time and ask them to provide details on what they carried out for each task, the contractor and myself have access to the reports so that it can be viewed and used for invoicing. If you already have a timer function within a project management system, Toggl would be less appropriate.
