This tool is the only one that has been used and worked wonderfully, it is an excellent program, it has not been necessary to try other similar tools.

Chose DeskTime
The user interface and user experience are much better compared to the other same app. It is also cheaper with a bunch of extra features!
Chose DeskTime
I was not a part of the selection of DeskTime, but DeskTime seems to have the easiest to use UI, the best rated customer service, and a substantial feature set as compared to some of the competitors. I was not aware of price differences for enterprise use, but I assume it is …

Likelihood to Recommend
ActiTime is a perfect program for managing payments and expenses within the company. It is an ideal tool to manage the activity of employees and the time they devote to their daily tasks within the company. ActiTime is undoubtedly recommended for its excellent performance in generating reports and the quality of its production. If anything could improve this tool it is its interface as it has become a bit outdated.

I would say that a scenario where DeskTime is well suited is for personal use in a private business. DeskTime does exactly what it advertises, and it does it very well. However, I think there is a lot of potential for over-monitoring of your employees, or over-monitoring from high ups in larger companies. In a private business for personal use, you're only monitoring your own time management, so you can adjust as needed.

Return on Investment
  • It allows us to take the process and the expenses made in each project, and these give us the possibility to choose the correct budget for what we are doing.
  • This application does not give the ease of knowing that the payments will be made to different employees without any complication, generating reports that justify the hours of work they did.

  • Good Investment, with the report you can decide which other paid apps [are] not being used in the organization
