Cure For Time Wastage, Good For Productivity

Commenti: Overall, Time Doctor is great for productivity, time tracking, and project management. It has the best Leave-Tracking features that send notifications if the person is still working on a task. In all reality, it has great usability with many different cool options such as time-tracking, browsing history, breaks, and idle time reminders, etc.

Aspetti positivi:

I have been an active member of PeoplePerHour for almost 4 years now and Time Doctor has been a great help for me. It has helped me track my time spent on various projects that I do on daily basis. I manage my workflow and pace by keeping an eye on Time Doctor and also get proof of my work hours to demand payment. I'm on the Desktop application most of the time but I do use a mobile application that helps me track the time when I'm traveling and working. It also gives an option to manually edit time and I used it sometimes when I spent time on the phone or forget to launch the application while working. The activity bar on the desktop is one important feature that I use and I love it.

Aspetti negativi:

I check for updates regularly and try to keep my software up-to-date. However, I noticed some mal-functioning when my Time Doctor didn't stop for the whole night and showed non-stop 13 hours of work. I had to reinstall the application to fix the trouble. The activity bar on the screen is sometimes pretty annoying as it doesn't go behind the apps. It always stays on top and blocks the view. There should be an option to resize it and push it behind as well. Other than that, I'm quite happy with the overall performance of the Time Doctor.

Every Outsource employer's breathe of fresh air

Commenti: Users generally find the time tracking feature to be accurate and reliable. While some users appreciate the screenshot monitoring feature, others find it intrusive and unnecessary.

Aspetti positivi:

Time tracking is one of the core features of Time Doctor, and it allows us to track the time they spend on different tasks and projects. This feature is particularly useful for remote individual contributors who need to track billable hours accurately with screenshots snippet for productivity

Aspetti negativi:

Time Doctor offers a range of reports, but some users have expressed a desire for more customization options. For example, users may want to be able to create reports that show only certain types of tasks

It used to be a good product but they now lack on product focus and don't listen to customers.

Commenti: It helped our company at different stage of it's growth but unfortunately is not listening to its customers anymore

Aspetti positivi:

It has a nice web backend The client made in 2017 has good UX (if only we could use it) It used to have a responsive product team (not anymore)

Aspetti negativi:

- The old client UI (which is the only one that we can use) is not intuitive and buggy. Our team very often complains about this and they don't want to use it. - A key feature which is blurring the screenshots has been taken away from the new Windows and Mac client but the option to enforce it is still in their web backend. This gives the false expectation that the setting will be respected while it doesn't and this compromise the privacy and *security* of the people using this software as the screenshots can also collect passwords, private keys etc. Neal from support on October 3rd 2017 wrote: "Sorry for the delay but our developer has not finished setting up this feature yet on the new app. I will try to get more feedback on this and see if I could get at least an estimate of when it will be implemented." After more than seven months on 20th of April 2018 he says: "We don't have an ETA yet. All I know is that our development team are currently working on incorporating this feature as we have been pushing them to since this is something available on the old app." As you can see the answer was not truthful (using the word "finishing" for something that wasn't started). There was also no apology from their side and they didn't write an article warning about this bug which can compromise the security of their users and breach their T&Cs. It's a shame since this company used to care about their customers. I will change the review if they finally act on this.General Comment It helped our company at different stage of it's growth but unfortunately while growing it seems that it lost its user focus

The best time tracking tool I have used so far.

Commenti: It's been great! It helped us to calculate worked hours and use non-productive apps. Useful when you have people working remotely on different projects.

Aspetti positivi:

I like how easily you can access your team's timeline through different reports (Excel and PDF). As well, how you can categorize the Productive or Non-Productive apps and websites so your team spends time on what it's related to their role.

Aspetti negativi:

The idle time is not very accurate if it's because they are non-productive or because they are on a call. And when trying to get explanations from the Time Doctor Support Team, they don't know if a team member might be using auto-clickers to reduce their idle time or not.

Excellent Productivity Tool

Aspetti positivi:

Time Doctor is a great asset for tracking and overseeing employee attendance, productivity, and effectiveness. Its user-friendly interface makes it simple to set up and begin utilizing, and its reporting abilities let managers quickly and easily identify areas that require improvement. It also provides useful insights into how employees are utilizing their time and where improvements can be made in terms of productivity and efficiency. I am also pleased with the fact that Time Doctor enables collaboration between different teams, so that everyone can remain updated and make sure that tasks are completed on schedule.

Aspetti negativi:

The biggest downside to Time Doctor is that it can be intrusive and feel like an unwelcome presence in the workplace. It can be difficult to get used to having it track all of your activities, and this can make it hard to stay productive. Additionally, some users may find the software too complicated to use and may need additional training or support. Finally, it can be expensive compared to some of the other time-tracking programs available.

This tool is excellent for effectively tracking work time.

Commenti: My experience with Time Doctor has been outstanding. The software's ability to generate visual evidence of time allocations is particularly valuable for employers who compensate their team members based on projects or hourly rates, which aligns perfectly with my needs.

Aspetti positivi:

This software is incredibly user-friendly and simple to set up, while also offering exceptional accuracy in tracking. It surpasses any other option I have come across in the market. With its support for multiple platforms, I can conveniently track my work from anywhere and at any time. Moreover, it provides valuable insights into work patterns, offering a deeper understanding of my productivity.

Aspetti negativi:

Personally, I have not encountered any issues with this software. However, a few of my employees and contractors have expressed their concerns about it being perceived as a micromanagement tool. Fortunately, this is not a concern that I share: xD

One of the best tracking systems in the market

Commenti: Excellent tool to monitor WFH employees and has definitely helped increase productivity.

Aspetti positivi:

Overall my favorite features are screen recording and idle time tracking, I am able to help my employee to correct behaviors and use their company time effectively.

Aspetti negativi:

Based on the features I use I really have no complaints

Helps me to keep track on task

Aspetti positivi:

Best part of time doctor is you can integrate with sheets and docs using it's extension and you can start time for every task seperately so that it helps to keep track which task consume how much percentage of bandwidth.

Aspetti negativi:

Sometimes it automatically pause we need to keep check on it.

Remote Tracker

Commenti: Overall, this is a very effective tool for tracking my productivity, worked hours, and attendance. Very helpful for remote workers like me.

Aspetti positivi:

When it helps me track time whenever I am working and my productivity too.

Aspetti negativi:

It would be best if it has an option or a tab where I can input my notes, tasks, or reminders.

Could be better

Commenti: so far its just ok but not the best to use it all features

Aspetti positivi:

Time management is helpful but not the best feature

Aspetti negativi:

no training provided to use the software hence not very helfpul

God for tracking

Commenti: Everything was smooth and totally satisfied with there service.

Aspetti positivi:

It was easy to use and very convenient, will be sharing to other friends

Aspetti negativi:

Sometimes it crashes but it`s okay, there support always remind us every time there`s updates or maintenance.

Good but there's a ton of room for improvement

Commenti: I'm not really all that excited about the software, I think it can be so much better and I know they are working on great things so that's why I'm hanging around to see what they come up with. For the price point it isn't even that bad, just have to go through other loopholes to make it work which I look forward to not having to do.

Aspetti positivi:

Easy to use & set up (somewhat), easy to add and deactivate users, great white labeling feature it integrates to some software, super accurate.. it shows reports with time tracking down to the last second. It is stealthy and screen capture at randome, it pops ups as a reminder to log back in and get to work, also when visiting a low productivity website like youtube (unless you are a tube marketing that is) it asks if you if that's the website you meant to visit and whether you want to work on it. Customer service is THE BOMB! Super patient and will go to any length to make you happy.

Aspetti negativi:

Reports are not white labeled and poorly formatted so I personally cannot send those and have to create my own based onthe informtion I can get out of the site and so this also makes the whole white labeled a little pointless because I cannot format the email that go out of TD to the clients cannot format reports to be more appealing, the portal isn't too easy to navigate on the client's end and I cannot just send a bill to my clients to pay for my team's work as they review the work for themselves. Screenshots last for as long sd 6 months which I apprecite but I wish I could hit a "paid" and "archive" buttons so that if I want to revisit, I can just go into those archives but they aren't showing when I'm trying to back tracking to see what was the last project a team mate worked on. wording for creating a working schedule and shifts is a little weird to me. It no longer synchs with freshbooks or Quickbooks which are the two accounting software I use (I like to have redundancy in my business, don't judge me lol)

Real Time Monitoring and Accurate Time Use Data for your Remote Workers

Aspetti positivi:

With the latest technology, more effective collaborative tools have been developed to address the difficulties and disadvantages of hiring remote workers. Virtual Assistants are in demand helping companies Worldwide produce more and better results for a low cost. Most remote workers and Virtual Assistants are paid by the hour and with Time Doctor, the management can track their employees real work status and productivity time. The features are designed to monitor the agent's screens and open tabs to ensure that the workers are doing work related tasks and opening company approved sites. Dashboard shows agent status where a Green circle beside the users name- means the person is working, if red, means the person is not working or on break At the end of the day, a report on accurate time usage can be viewed. Data gives the total of hours worked. It also shows the different tasks and how much time spent per task. You can select total hours worked per day, week, or per month. What I like about Time Doctor is that it provides agent screenshots every 9 minutes. It also shows if there is a low activity period.

Aspetti negativi:

Most benefits and advantages are for employers and management with the reports and actual agent status and work hours. However, the agent's Time Doctor Application / Dashboard is not easy to manage and use. Integration to company's accounting and company provided software can be complicated. For every task accomplished it should also be made available in their time doctor application. Agent should identify which task he/she is currently working on that particular hour by providing notes per hour after selecting which task category it belongs. Agents however can save permanent tasks instead of typing them saving them more time by just clicking on the saved task before he or she starts working.

Productivity stile

Commenti: I am having a satisfactory experience, even comparing it with other software that perform the same functions. The TD has helped me to significantly improve my performance as an analyst, this has the same impact on personnel as monitoring to the point of achieving objectives that in principle seemed unattainable.

Aspetti positivi:

Certainly I liked the amount of options, speaking of indicators that help us manage staff and increase productivity significantly. Not only see captures, but also see the activity of their peripherals and the apps and programs they use

Aspetti negativi:

More than a "Cons" i would like that indicators such as low activity may be visible to individuals and not only to those who have TD group management. In turn, that this indicator can be traceable not only in the last 7 days of work but in editable periods of time, example: the last 3 days of work

Time Doctor - Best for everything!

Commenti: The best assistance, not solely in monitoring your team but making sure you have figured out important aspects in efficient management of your team and the responsibilities which need to be taken care of.

Aspetti positivi:

The product has been the easiest I've used. I have been using other time tracking programs before but Time Doctor has by far the easiest integration and set up. It also gives me a clearer understanding of what's happening with my team, what tasks are we spending more time on and helps me manage the team responsibilities and task assignments to make sure everyone has the right balance of everything.

Aspetti negativi:

I think we have encountered a couple of bugs before, like TD stopping on it's own (already fixed), and if I would suggest anything is the automatic update whenever there is one. Apparently, we would have to uninstall and reinstall the app every now and then to the latest version, this would mean that before we find out, our TD has actually stopped recording until we update to the newer version.

Great for tracking remote employees

Commenti: I moved to a remote workforce (even before the pandemic!) and TimeDoctor helps me do that with peace of mind by allowing for supervision.

Aspetti positivi:

Time Doctor allows me to make sure my employees are working and billing their time without me being a nag. It has time clocks, screen captures, and reports, so I can see what they are doing any time I want, without them being aware of when I am watching so that I don't interrupt them or make them anxious. It also helps catch billable time and improve time wasting habits.

Aspetti negativi:

They advertise that they work with payroll. But the software is not compliant legally with U.S. employment law (I am an employment lawyer so I am strongly aware of this). It is focused more on independent contractors, but most companies should be using this for employees instead of contractors. For employees, you will still need to have a separate time clock and use a good payroll company. So the clocking can be redundant and may annoy your employees.

Time Doctor Review

Aspetti positivi:

I found the Time Doctor app to be a great asset due to its easy-to-use time tracking capabilities and comprehensive features. With it, I can accurately monitor my work hours and those of my team, set up tasks and projects, and check our progress in real time. It also has a reminder system to help ensure that tasks are completed on schedule, as well as detailed reports to help analyze our performance and find areas for improvement.

Aspetti negativi:

There is nothing to dislike in time doctor as of now

Just what you need for Team Tracking!

Commenti: We took the subscription of Time Doctor at the time of the Pandemic when we were fighting hard to track our team. Time Doctor proved a boon at that time and we didn't stop using it after that. We used it with a few clients who had an hourly agreement with us and the clients were totally at ease with the reports that we shared with them and with the option that they could also ask for screenshots. We couldn't find a single bug in the software in the two years of our subscription.

Aspetti positivi:

We had been using this software for close to 2 years and we love how simplistic the UI and UX is. It's not hard to find anything at all and it's a breeze to use. The best part is the screenshots functionality. Working remotely at the time of Covid, it was such a blessing to use Time Doctor to monitor and track our team. The clients were also at ease knowing that their projects were being worked on without any delays or hiccups!

Aspetti negativi:

There was nothing much to dislike about this software. I just wished it was more affordable for a small team.

Time Doctor takes the worry out of hiring remote workers!

Commenti: Users are generally satisfied with the ease of use, and managers are in heaven with the robust features. It has been heaven-sent for tracking our global, distributed workforce.

Aspetti positivi:

- Easily track hours and prove that your workers are actually working (the app tracks movement, poor time use, and also takes screenshots) - Works on Windows, Mac, and mobile - Customize the list of projects/tasks that your employees/contractors/freelancers can work on at any given time - Dashboard and reports galore - Integration with 30+ applications (at the time of writing this review): communication apps, invoicing apps, project management apps, IDE's, Google G Suite apps, etc. - Handles payroll!

Aspetti negativi:

- Users have complained at times that the software is buggy and failed to track their time, but this has become less and less common over time

Works Well

Commenti: Happy, Had some glitches early on, but that was primarily because i had a very dated computer.

Aspetti positivi:

What I liked is how it captures the screenshots of the actual activity. With other ones we have used like Toggl it just tracks the time and doesnt show activity that way.

Aspetti negativi:

When I want to time a new activity and I type that activity and clickj play it will have a pop up that said this activity already exists. Which is silly, its like I know it exists thats why i selected it and wanted it to start recording. In an old version it would pull up the already existing activity. Now, I need to put it in the search bar to find the proper one. Why not have the search bar and new activity bar be the same, and if it is existing give me the options as oppose to just saying the task already exists where i then need to do an additional step to search for it or go scrolling through my list of all activities. Hope that makes sense.

Timeless

Commenti: I love this program, This tool is a must have when you are working long hours like myself and are trying to keep my life prioritized . It helps me keep up with my work breaks and potty runs. You can organized your entire day into hours to keep your schedule on track. It also helps with your gym reps too for when you are at the gym.

Aspetti negativi:

It can be confusing to work sometimes. You really just have to dig into it and learn the program. Besides that it is not too bad

Real time monitoring and tracking

Commenti: Superb and very effective. It has been a great tool to optimize the productivity.

Aspetti positivi:

It is a very powerful tool which helps in order to track and monitor the tasks of the workers. It captures the different tasks performed all the day and the kind of tabs opened by the workers. This is also used by the remote workers who are providing virtual assistance on the hourly basis and get paid as per the report generated at the end of the day. One can also track the idle time of a person and shows the amount of time spent on a specific tasks.

Aspetti negativi:

Everything is great and sometimes it troubles using the application on the smartphone. Rest I dont see any kind of trouble with the user interface of TD

My Personal Experience with Time Doctor

Aspetti positivi:

For me what I love most about this app is its ability to take screenshots of what we're doing. I have tried other attendance tracking software and none of them was able to do that. Also, it is very easy to use. You can use it immediately off the rack or you can customize it by adding or connecting it to a separate payroll. As an HR, I am happy using Time Doctor since I started my journey in freelancing because I can put my client at ease in using Time Doctor I can show them that I am honest with the hourly rate that I am charging them.

Aspetti negativi:

I can't find any cons since using time doctor.

I recommend it to everyone I know...

Commenti: Amazing. I couldn't imagine running my business without it.

Aspetti positivi:

I love the ease of use in getting this software working, and it does that straight out of the box. Very little setup is required and after 2 and a half years using it, neither myself or employees have ever had any issues with it. It makes Payroll a breeze, and I love how in depth the reporting is which makes working with clients so much easier being able to show them time reports and logs. I highly recommend this to anyone I know in the online industry and will continue to do so for a long time!

Aspetti negativi:

It would be great for the manual time if we could limit the amount that is allowed to be added.

Best employment tracking

Commenti: The best benefit that I could get is transparency. I know how long I work and how much I get paid.

Aspetti positivi:

a. Transparent - since employees know how much hours they have worked and they can check how much they are going to be paid. b. Ensured that everyone is working as they should - inactivity will lead to time doctor automatically turned off. c. There are screenshots taken which will help both supervisor and employer if there's any data discrepancy. d. In case something urgent happen (e.g device issue, forgot to turn on the TD), there's an option to manually input working hours along with reason - with manager approval

Aspetti negativi:

a. Ability to edit inactivity time by our manager. 10 minutes is the basic inactivity time when you're asked "if you're still working" and I hope it can be edited by our manager. Because inactivity could be of many reasons and 10 minutes could be too short for some people/
