Toggl is nicer as far as full capability and additional features, but QuickBook's time is built right in, which makes it nice not to have to go between multiple interfaces. As someone who jumps between programs all day, it is nice to stay within one to complete multiple …

The cost is better. We are a nonprofit organization. We don’t need a bunch of bells and whistles. We need affordability. We run on a tight budget. Bamboo, from research looked great but TSheets offered exactly what we needed at a fair price.

We are currently switching to Jira for our time tracking as we've moved into using it heavily to the point where we can estimate well enough time spent for our purposes (government grants). For a contractor or team working on billable hours, TSheets would be superior. For a …

We used to do all of our scheduling manually or in archaic software that wasn't user-friendly. We researched other software and found that this was going to meet our needs most comprehensively. Staff used to track their hours on a notepad on their phone or on an excel …

We'd used Freshbooks for a bit, but it wasn't comprehensive enough for all the various project types and time tracking needs we have. Harvest we considered due to its integration with Asana, but our Asana projects don't always line up with how we need to track and bill time. …

TSheets just seemed like the best bang for our buck. It had all the resources we were looking for, great reviews online, and the best customer service out of all of the options we researched. It was important to us to find a program that would be able to smoothly integrate …

Besides Intuit Payroll (Sage), the only program I've used is WorkBrain through Menards, and it's more as a scheduling guideline for management, employees don't use it to punch in or out or record hours. However, WorkBrain does show scheduling and it matches with a punch clock …

TSheets' ease of use for all and ease of syncing with other software really makes it stand out from other similar systems. It is also considerably affordable despite all that it offers to the company. Their customer service is also very helpful and they are available via email, …

We looked hard at Exaktime, but they are more costly, and do not have a scheduling feature.

Procas is very cumbersome and much of the configuration/setup cannot be done via web browser. Procas is expensive. Procas support is not 24x7 nor is support more than 8 hours. Deltek is expensive.

I've not tried any others because TSheets is almost perfect.

We used a tracking program called OL Time. It has tremendous functionality and reports capabilities but it doesn't integrate with accounting software and has no tablet/phone interface that I'm aware of, nor is it live tracking.

This is solely based on support, as TSheets support blows these other two out of the water. I HATE online chats from a support standpoint, but TSheets has surprised me each time with the clarity and timeliness of response.

Ultimately I selected Clockify instead of TimeCamp. As previously mentioned, I believe that TimeCamp wasn't that intuitive, and too many things were behind pay walls. Clockify offered the same features mostly for free. Although TimeCamps UX was sleeker than Clockify's I found …

Our journey to finding TimeCamp did not lead us to any competitors. When I first started my SEO company I was tracking everything by hand and that worked fine until I started building a team. I was already using Trello and preferred not to change so we began by looking at add …

I explored Toggl, and my financial software Harpoon (which I love) also provides time tracking. But, I've yet to have a strong reason to leave TimeCamp, and the alternatives I researched before choosing it were not as good. In a moment when I thought about switching, the value …

I used 2 kinds of software before using Timecamp but what I saw on Timecamp is that it is easy to use and not expensive like other programs. Also,Timecamp does not pressure us to get our money since payment methods are specific and on time.

Firstly Timecamp is working with different other software like Podio and Trello and these tools are also useful. It took a long time to find an application for tracking and prioritizing time, and when we decided to purchase Timecamp, we did not have any regrets. It takes a …

TimeCamp has the absolute smallest impact on my PC's performance and that's a huge plus. I never even realize it's running. The "widget" is barely noticeable and is the least intrusive one that maintains a visible presence. Some apps, like ActivTrak have no visible indicator at …

Likelihood to Recommend
It would be very useful for certain remote jobs that require a high level of presence, as in the case of web development, or remote maintenance sessions, so that when reviewing the work data it is possible to ensure that there will be no failures. By being able to include files in the management, from the equipment tab, it is possible to fully control the hours in which each change in these files were made.

Cons
  • I would like to see more functionality around rounding of time.
  • In the Report Filters, I don't find the "Customer" selection process easy to use.
  • Without "archiving employees" I'd like to see another way to get employees from showing in the selection list...maybe an "inactive" code.

  • TimeCamp is a little bit expensive. It needs overall improvement in all tools. Moreover, the mobile version is not as useful as the web version of TimeCamp.
  • Other than that, customer service needs more attention and requires more improvement.
  • Also, I feel like that if there are more features of TimeCamp then it would be better.

TSheets tech support people, like Shawn Sommer, from Tsheets. She has been instrumental, after terminating the person in charge of TSheets I was left with a learning curve too high to climb but after 10 mins of her instructions I was able to make payroll in no time. She cleared all errors that nobody had fixed before.
TSheets is not a vendor for me, TSheets is my partner in business. Thank you TSheets.

Usability
Overall good product. I think some integration issues that are probably on the way would give it a higher score. Easy to use, easy to see how well it connects to current book keeping software we use, and would be easy to adopt by someone who is a QuickBook user that has billable clients or just wants that metric to see how their time is allocated.

I have never failed to have an issue resolved within minutes of contacting Support. Jen D recently assisted my with an export issue and I was back on track in less the 10 minutes. She was knowledgable and thought about the current and future contexts of the issue and assured there would be no recurrence next payroll.

I am giving support a rating of 8 but that is quite arbitrary. Honestly, we have never had the need to contact support for any reason. There has not been a situation where we became stuck and could not figure out how to work through it. Sign up was easy and billing is like clockwork so there has been no need to contact billing support. I think this is a testament to the ease of use of TimeCamp.

Return on Investment
  • Helps to ensure that employees are being held accountable for their clocked in time and allows us to clock them out if we see they're not where they say they are, saving us money.
  • Decreases time our staffing coordinator has to spend on inputting times after events - when managers can clock staff in and out during the event, it allows our staffing coordinator to use their office time more effectively.
Read full review
  • The most positive impact it has had is that we are able to accurately track our clients billed time. This has streamlined our process giving us a more efficient system.
  • One thing that timecamp can do is track computer time that is non billed time. This allow us to see where time is being wasted which does have a direct effect on out ROI.
