It is a program initially for engineers with a small budget or professionals with a low budget who want to take into account the time they spend on each work task, this is essential to be able to move forward.
It is limited so that executive staff can see the real performance of the employees below, it is closed in that sense and they do not like it.
I liked it in many functions and I would recommend it but I would make clear the problems of aspects that I found.
Pros
This program gives me a feeling of real-time optimization. By having a clear vision of how my time is being used, I can identify areas in which they could be more efficient and make adjustments to optimize workflow in each task, this gives me a feeling of real-time optimization. I like it mainly because I don't have much time, on the other hand the prices were comfortable and sometimes you could accumulate invoices for payment the next month without penalties.
Cons
Productivity monitoring is very limited, I think it did not allow data to be delivered to senior managers, the way to give them real-time access to the performance of our tasks was very problematic.

I would describe it as a neutral experience. This software has as many pros as it has cons in my opinion, but regardless, most of the times it does the job, plus is has some tools that are helpful to keep track of personal tasks.
Pros
I liked the fact that it actually gives the option to cap the worked hours and all the reminders of how many hours you have left to work, which is not something I had with previous time tracking systems.
Cons
To be fair, the software slowed my computer down significantly, and while trying to use it in my iOS systems it would randomly stop tracking time or taking screenshots.

Our employees did not find it user-friendly to begin working on different tasks with the clock running, and would often forget to switch tasks -- which resulted in an inaccurate picture of how they were spending their shifts.
Pros
Hubstaff worked well for managing employee clock-in and clock-out, providing reports on how each team member was doing.
Cons
Our employees would often forget to clock back in after breaks. We ultimately switched away from Hubstaff because we found a solution that worked better for our team.

It has been great for my company to have this tool as all staff work remotely. I can much more easily monitor and know what is going on with my projects and staff.
Pros
Easy hour tracking for remote staff, easy hour tracking for billing of clients
Cons
Cannot control how long screen shots are kept and cannot easily delete them manually. I would like to delete the screen shots after each billing for security purposes.

Hubstaff has been simple and easy to set up and easy to use.
Pros
Hubstaff is an easy to use platform that seemlessly and easily tracks time for timesheets/payroll.
Cons
Hubstaff is an external clocking program so the employee will need to remember to clock into hubstaff before working on a separate platform...hubstaff isnt automaticly engaged when an employee starts working. It is reliant on their memory to clock in hubstaff before accessing any other work program as opposed to auto clocking when accessing work programs automatically.

Makes time tracking easy, removes idle time and screenshots to make sure employees are working.

Could improve to auto remove all suspicious activity interfering in the background or simply stop the clock - if people are trying to cheat the system.

I am a supervisor with 6 people in charge. I have to check their login and log out times, plus their productivity times, their PTO request, etc. Hubstaff helped me a lot with this.
Pros
It is very accurate about all the information provided, and very detailed. You can have control over all your employees.
Cons
I don't have any complain about it. Maybe how are the teams distributed can be more friendly to use.

I really like using hubstaff in my work. This way i am able to track my day to day tasks and projects. It is more accessible and very easy to use. What i love the most is the option to take notes of the tasks you have done. The time stamp and also the screenshot option.
Pros
It is easy to access and have the ability to edit and take down your tasks.
Cons
What i least like about this tool is there are many options for you to select for a certain project. The tabs is a little bit confusing sometimes.

My overall experience with Hubstaff has been great. The program is cost effective and a great way to monitor remote employees.
Pros
I love using Hubstaff for our remote employees. It gives me access to see screenshots of what they are working on, assign tasks, job cost their time, and easily see what I need to pay each employee.
Cons
The only thing I do not like about Hubstaff is the desktop version needs to be downloaded to utilize the full services that hubstaff offers. I have to explain this to new employees, and some do not want to download the application.

User-friendly. Imagine that you just logged in, in the comfort of your home, you do your job/daily tasks, and after a week, you'd be able to submit your time sheet with no sweat. Everything has already been placed accordingly.
Pros
Everything is just one-click away. And everything is calculated accordingly.
Cons
No 15-minute break? I'm unsure if this is between the company and the user, but I hope, HubStaff could offer that.

It is a failed software because the basic function is not working and it is destroying the times that I was working. after working for 4 months, it destroyed 3 months!!!
Pros
After finishing the time, and closing the app, it shows an error that the time does not saved and all the time that I was working is just wasted!!!!
Cons
My employer defined this software to be used in remote jobs and because this I was supposed to use it.
Response from Hubstaff
Hi Shahin! Thanks for your feedback and we're sorry to hear that you were having some issues with the app.
We would like to explain that when you quit your app and the data has not been uploaded to the servers yet, there will be a popup notification.
Don't worry as the data is not lost since we store everything locally on the user's computer. As soon as the Hubstaff app connects to the servers, all the locally stored data will get uploaded.
If you're still having issues with it, please send us an email at [email protected] so we can take a look into this for you.
Thanks and have a good day!
