RescueTime vs. TMetric

To understand where you are wasting too much time, and what you have to cut out in order to stop losing attention to what really matters in a day's work. It's a good app to categorize your day-to-day work and report your productivity level, and also how focused you are on what really matters from 9 to 5.

We started using TMetric in 2016, then re-evaluated our choice in 2018 in a beauty contest with its primary competitors. Our conclusion at that time was TMetric was the only solution that would meet all of our needs.

• The inability to add time into the future, such as planned PTO days and holidays.
• At times, the settings can be difficult to find and navigate, but that just takes some time.
• It would be nice if the web app and the desktop weren't two separate apps. If the web app had the ability to capture what you were working on, that would be fantastic, and there wouldn't be a need for a second app!

I think usability is where this product really shines. It just plain works. It's snappy, intuitive, and gets the job done. It is incredibly easy to use with a color-coded tagging system. It very clearly details out your breaks VS billable time, and gives you detailed reports that are useful when talking with clients and/or meeting with stakeholders.

During 4 years, we have not needed much support, but when we did, the responses were fast and effective (although not always written in the most comprehensible English).

Many of the team members think that the UX of TMetric is better and easy.
