    I love it! Still use it and recommend to other colleagues.

    I love it! Still use it and recommend to other colleagues.

    Pros

    I like that it comes with the integrated time doctor, detailed reports for the team activity & productivity, as well as the recruitment Hubstaff Talent platform, I'd say it's the best remote hiring platform. Have found many employees from there.

    Cons

    There's no payroll integration with Payoneer. It's tough to do payroll with limited options.

    Reasons for Choosing Hubstaff

    The freelancer platform was better. Upwork is too costly to post jobs.

    Using Hubstaff has been exceptionally easy across the board. It is an asset for our company to see project profitability, team member hours, and manage time off for a fully remote company. The customer service with Hubstaff is superb. Highly recommend the app!

    Pros

    The customer service at Hubstaff is second-to-none. They are super responsive and attentive to our account. The clarity in the dashboard and ease of use of the app and online tracking tool is superb. It was extremely easy to implement in our team and get team members onboard for utilising the app through the use of badges and "friendly competition".

    Cons

    The fact that PTO doesn't count towards the total weekly hours for a team member, which is should so that we can see the team member's weekly hours inclusive of PTO.

    Alternatives Considered

    TimeCamp, Time Doctor and DeskTime

    Reasons for Choosing Hubstaff

    More sophisticated app, more flexibility, better dashboard. Easier to implement across a large organisation.

    Good time tracking software

    Reviewed on 05/07/2022

    Pros

    Good features. Highly recommend to business owners who want to boost their employees' productivity.

    Response from Hubstaff

    Hi there!

    Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm so pleased to hear you highly recommend Hubstaff to boost employees' productivity. We are always striving to be the best in this space, and the best for our customers... So to hear that you're happy with what we have to offer - Well, you just made our day!

    Regarding your concern about screenshots, I would like to let you know that you can enable your system's notification settings to know if screenshots are being taken.

    When the screenshot notification setting is enabled on the desktop application, a pop-up will show every time it captures your screen, depending on your app's preferences setting. You can read more about it in our support article here: https://support.hubstaff.com/how-do-i-know-if-screenshots-are-being-taken/

    If you still have concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at [email protected] and we'll be happy to assist you!

    Hope this helps! Have a lovely day!

    Easy Time Tracking But Has Some Downfalls

    I find Hubstaff to be user friendly but with downfalls that affect my overall opinion. If the desktop app did not impact the performance of my device, I would be happier with Hubstaff. Some features I can appreciate the intention but can't always be used reliably, such as the activity tracker. The activity tracker reports your and your team's active mouse movements on the screen. This percentage doesn't mean much if you are in meetings throughout the day as Hubstaff will report those times as inactive.

    Pros

    Hubstaff's desktop app is very user friendly and makes switching between projects easy. Admins can add or remove projects from user's list easily. The app does take screenshots of the user's screen which can be useful in certain cases. User's can be added to another user's "team" so that managers can view team member times and activities in a daily email summary or by logging into the online account without being a Hubstaff admin.

    Cons

    Hubstaff uses a lot of computer memory, especially the screenshot feature. Several users have reported the performance of their computer is affected. There is a mobile app but I have found it only works intermittently, most times I receive an error saying the feature is not available.

    When I started working as a freelancer I tested most of the most famous time tracking software services out there. I always ended up coming back to Hubstaff! The free plan was perfect for starting out, and now it also works perfectly for our small team. And we hope the same will happen once the company grows bigger.

    Pros

    The ease of use and the fact it's so feature-rich. They have many integrations and even offer API for custom implementations.

    Cons

    I'd like to have the ability to set different pay/bill rates in different currencies, regardless of the primary currency set at the Organization top level.
