Time Doctor tracks the collective hours a team puts in. But it also provides a…
Really focused on using within a desktop environment rather than on the road (although there is a mobile app to use as an alternate). The tangible feel of the device on the desk makes it really easy to switch between tracking activities without interfering with your ongoing work. You need to carefully consider what activities to track as there are only 8 options.
Time Doctor is great if you need to time how long you spend on different projects throughout the day. I am editing multiple books at once and I need to keep track of how long I spend on each one. It is not worth it if you don't need to keep track of how long you spend on a large project. I find it too cumbersome to time individual tasks and not useful enough to time just one project.
One click to choose projects and tasks you've already created so that you can quickly choose what you're working on and basically set it and forget it.
Automatic screenshots so that I can always reference back to what I was working on.
The reports! There are reports for every project and time use. Helps me see exactly where my time is going and how I can better maximize it.
When checking/viewing Web and App Usage, I wish there's an option on this page to update or change the app's rating without going to settings page. It will be a lot easier for us to update the ratings on the Web and App Usage.
The support was terrible! They never responded in sufficient time and their assistance was always super vague. I never felt like they had an actual solution to my concerns. They were nice, but I don't feel like they were trained in their own system. It felt like I was talking to a wall.
I have tried pc based software equivalents including Toggl but managing it on the pc workstation makes it just another software item. I selected Timeular because it is a tangible item on my desk. This "breaks" the connection with the PC and means I am far less likely to track my activity throughout the day.
We previously used the time tracking component within Kanbanflow.com. However, it was confined to a specific task and we needed something more holistic. Enter Time Doctor! The difference between the two was night and day. I know there are other similar time tracking apps that exist that we could have investigated. We started with Time Doctor Lite and that gave us enough of a taste to upgrade to Pro.
For a small amount each month I believe I get a huge return on investment in form of traceability of my hours spent. The major factor that made me choose Time Doctor was the price and the value. I don't think I would still be interested if it was more expensive.
