hubstaff replacment

I use hubstaff to employee and projec time for a small web dev team. I don't have a lot of needs, and don't use hubstaff's full feature set, but worktivity does everything I need, and some of it even better than hubstaff.

in particular, the way it tracks users idle time, and "productive" vs "unproducitve" app or website usage is much more accurate and detailed than hubstaff.

actually using it to track your time is a bit nicer too. one click to start a new task/project or switch between them.

Pros:
+ tracks employee time
+ tracks project/task time
+ super easy to use
+ support was quick to respond to questions
+ very easy to set up
+ really detailed time tracking
+lets you very easily see all the apps and websites users are using and designate which ones are productive or not.
+ lets me very easily see if my employees are being productive at a very granular level, without going through lots of screenshots - although I can if I want to
+reporting is much nicer UI than hubstaff
+overal UI is nicer

Cons:
- no webhook or API integrations yet. for example, hubstaff will give me slack alerts when my employees start or stop. maybe worktivity will do this in the future. the API is under development.
- project or employee finances aren't shown (only hours), although this is on their roadmap
- it has a feature for "expected work hours" but it's global. for my company, it depends on the employee, so that's not very useful for me. but hubstaff didn't do this for me either.
- hubstaff has an alert about idle time, which is nice because I might walk away for lunch and forget to stop the timer. the alert allows me to basically remove the mistaken idle time with a click when I get back to my computer. Worktivity tracks idle time, but doesn't remove it. so if an employee does this, they might actually want to remove their mistaken idle time, but I don't think they'd be able to. I worry my guys will be nervous if this happens, because then it will show them as having a large amount of idle time, but really it was just an oversight.
- maybe some other smaller features of hubstaff that I never used aren't contained here

Bottom Line: it's rare that a deal will 1:1 replace a current subscription of mine. this does just that. I'm ditching hubstaff for good. Incredible value here, if anything it's priced too low hah.

useworktivity works for us

after trying out clowdwork and desklog (also on appsumo at the time) I decided on useworktivity.com

UX/UI is nice.

They are actively developing the software to include some very valuable features.

like project and task based time tracking, productivity reports, employee pay etc

wishing you all the best useworktivity and looking forward to seeing the platform develop in the near future.

Good for freelancers, not ready for agencies

I bought worktivity and tested it for a few days. The interface is very pleasant, installing the agent for Windows went smoothly. Worktivity is already ready to use for freelancers or even very small teams.

+ Very nice user interface
+ Very nice and responsive support team
+ Categorization of apps and browser windows works reliably
+ Has the possibility of manual time entries
+ Trouble-free installation of the recording apps

The software is not yet suitable for agencies or larger teams. The software cannot (yet) handle different employment types such as freelancers and permanent employees. Some functions that are important for agencies are missing. There is no meaningful comparison of target and actual working hours anywhere. There is also no time balance that would, for example, show the accrued overtime. The app does not allow individual workdays or target hours per user. This is essential for team time tracking. For the software to be called a full-fledged time management, leave management is missing.

- No entry date and exit date per employee
- No hourly balance per employee
- No accumulated overtime
- No comparison of target and actual working times
- No configuration of working time and days per user
- No leave management

Hopefully, the app will be further developed so that in the future both freelancers and permanent employees can be managed in parallel.

Clean UI and simple to set up

Really like Worktivity's UI. Nice balance between style and functionality - it's clean and intuitive. Additionally, the setup process was nice and easy. In just a few straightforward steps, I could get it up and running.

Will be interesting to see if it can assist in improving individual employee performance and overall productivity.

In conclusion, I was pleasantly surprised with this app, a nice find on appsumo!
