Toggl and Freshbooks here. I personally love Toggl - some of my favorite features are its "you've been idle" notification that lets you drop, keep, or move the idle time to a new entry, the extended entry autocompletion (autocompletes all fields from typing into the description), and how easy it is to continue. The cloud solution helps a lot - I have a setup where I can just hit super-shift-e to log out of Ubuntu and close all programs and simply walk away without losing anything.
My one issue with Toggl is that it only syncs a specific task with Freshbooks once. This can be a pain at times if you need to go back and change some previous entries. Overall, however, it works pretty well.
What have your issues with Toggl been?
- jwblackwell 14y agoIt's not so much my issues with Toggl. I actually think it's a very good little app. I've just found it very annoying working on multiple projects at once and constantly stopping and starting the timer due to distractions, phone calls from different clients etc. It's very easy to forget to stop or start it and then I have to go back and manually edit all the time which is guess work anyway. Working on reducing distractions and allocating blocks of time better would probably help but I've gone back to just using a simple spreadsheet now and rounding up hours throughout the day. It just feels less pressured and it's something less to worry about.
