### "This product gives me peace of mind"

July 24, 2018

5.0

Pros

I used to worry about some of our remote employees and contractors waisting time and company dollars. Not anymore. Hubstaff has helped us better monitor and track our employees, leading to better efficiency and trust.

Cons

I think the software could be a little cheaper but overall it's a fantastic product. I highly recommend it!

### "Necessary for remote workers "

July 19, 2021

5.0

Pros

This has been a game changer for our company in hiring remote workers. We tried in the past without this and it was such a failure that it was years until we tried again.

Cons

I couldn’t the payments to work so I needed to use a third party instead.

### "Experience has been good"

July 10, 2018

4.0

Pros

The ability to setup teams and track their time. People with varied skills can be hired and that makes it easy for recruiters. Customer support is good.

Cons

Cannot form a team of 1. The 2 sites, hubstaff. Com and talent.hubstaff.com.get confusing if you just need to hire people. The price for time tracking should be reduced.

### "Hubstaff brings Maximizing and Prioritizing to the Workplace."

March 20, 2019

3.0

Overall, I think Hubstaff provided clarity for not only myself, but management too!

Pros

I loved being able to truly see where my time was going.

Cons

I least liked that I had to remember to physically change the task as I gradually changed tasks throughout the day. Going back to update times/tasks was difficult and sometimes I typed in AM instead of Pm and wiped my entire day's work.

The fact that you can get the best worth ethic out of employees, it really brings out their strengths within a company.

### "Great way to keep track"

June 20, 2019

4.0

Overall, I certainly recommend Hubstaff. It’s accomplishing all we had hoped for and more.

Pros

Hubstaff helps keep our team members on track with time spend on various projects. Keeping track remote workers and tasks can be cumbersome but not since we started using Hubstaff.

Cons

Customer service via the chat can be quick and effective or it can take quite a while. It’s inconsistent.

### "Better than other time tracking and staffing solutions"

March 11, 2019

5.0

Pros

\- User - friendly - Clear view of activities and how proficient you're which makes you less distracted. - Fewer payment cut-offs (less commissions) - I already referred Hubstaff to at least 5 people

Cons

\- Activity count algorithm needs some improvements as it shows your idle even if you are reading something on screen but not using a keyboard or mouse.

### "Hubstaff: a balance of convienece and potential."

February 5, 2019

4.0

Pros

The best thing about Hubstaff is the ability to create multiple projects that track progress individually. This helps my team know where we stand and can assign responsibility accordingly.

Cons

There are areas where the software is “buggy”. One frustrating example is on the timesheets tab, sometimes the custom date range function in the calendar doesn’t work.

### "I am using it in m business"

July 30, 2018

I love it but the reporting part should be little bit less complicated.

Pros

I love the activity and screen shot future

Cons

Reporting is little bit annoying. I have always a problem to find overal monthly hours for a team member

### "I needed an easy-to-use, free time-tracking software for a course in school. Hubstaff fit the bill!"

May 18, 2018

5.0

Pros

I liked how you could track multiple projects at once. I also really appreciated being able to use the app rather than logging into the website every time I needed to track my time.

Cons

I did not like having to explain "why" every time I had to edit an entry. Usually it was because I forgot to start the timer.

May 22, 2018

Hi Sarah, thank you for taking the time to leave a review. In regards to having to explain why you're editing a time entry, there is a solution to this. There's an organization setting called \*Require reason\* that you can toggle, making it optional to submit an explanation when editing time. Hope this helps!

### "Hubstaff is great"

September 9, 2015

I use hubstaff for tracking my developers that are located outside of the US. It is an absolutely amazing platform and we love it. Any questions you may have the support staff is always willing to help out and go above and beyond.

Pros

interface, support, integrations

Cons

No con's to be honest. We love it no complaints

### "Our view"

July 31, 2018

4.0

Pros

It helps us manage the team's time better and keep a tab on project budgets

Cons

there are too many and too frequent updates. It takes up too much disk space and sometimes doesn't log the information.

### "There is a learning curve with getting the software set up and ready to use."

July 10, 2018

5.0

Employee remote tracking and the ability to track hours for payroll. I have also utilized the benefit of timed screen shots to track and assist employees when they have a road block.

Pros

Once it is set up, as the administrator, I do not need to do much for my employees tracking. I like that it creates automatic time sheets and will mark payroll as paid. I look forward to the opportunity to utilize the program for payroll payments (once we decide to upgrade).

Cons

The set up was a bit of a learning curve. I also do not like that I can not get a live screen shot of the employees screen.

### "Hubstaff is a great tool to track down your team"

May 17, 2018

5.0

Good to track team work

Pros

Provides complete work-report and it is not always necessary to closely monitor the people working for you. Provide screen-shot and activity logs. Easy justification of work. Dash-board has lots of option, especially activity and hours logged.

Cons

Cannot work offline, as it only works online. No time for lazy work. Pausing software to take break, increases your work-hours.

### "Seems relatively easy to use."

July 16, 2018

4.0

Integration into our PMS in addition to tracking time.

Pros

The timer which allows you to clock out of one project and into another. You can also sign into a project without selecting a task

Cons

My employees are allowed to assign their idle time to a project, which we do not want them to be able to do. The hours do not integrate into our PMS unless they select a task.

### "Works well just not for me"

June 7, 2018

3.0

It fit my need at the time to keep track of my time for client work. When I grew beyond having a couple of clients, it just didn't work well anymore.

Pros

The time tracking was fairly easy to use. It kept track of clients well, and allowed me to track different activities.

Cons

It just overall didn't suit my needs. The reports were kind of difficult to use. I ended up having to export my timesheets to Excel to reformat them before sending to clients. I switched to another program that just works better for my needs.

### "Great for keeping oversight on daily operations"

March 29, 2019

5.0

Pros

Although it seems intrusive at first the software helps to keep track of daily activities using screenshots and activity logging. It is good to check in on if a project has some accountability issues or if a client is looking for justification and greater insights.

Cons

It does seem a bit intrusive initially but is good at providing accountability.

### "Nice software, a bit intrusive at times"

January 16, 2018

4.0

Pros

I like that it is easy to use, offers simple time tracking or more advanced if I need it. It is designed well and has an app.

Cons

It can be a bit intrusive at times, especially the screenshot function. I am a user, not the administrator, so I cannot control the settings. The screenshots can be turned off, but my employer chose to leave them on.

### "Hubstaff Use"

March 27, 2019

5.0

Great for payroll use especially when employees are paid in per project or per hour basis

Pros

It's easy to use. On the employer's point of view, it is advantageous because it tracks employee activity at different time intervals and captures screen which is saved in the member's daily log.

Cons

It was difficult for me to determine how I could delete idle time at first.

### "Good solution "

October 26, 2019

5.0

Good software for time tracking employees. Recommend it to employers

Pros

To control my employees. I used this service just a three month. And now I need it for another project. I am gonna use this service.

Cons

Mobile app a year ago. Wasn’t friendly design. I used just a web version. But it’s not always comfortable for users

### "Hands-off tracking of productivity"

December 24, 2020

5.0

I work from home M-F, and being at home can be distracting at times. Hubstaff solves a really important problem: If you are not tracking time, or you are idle for a long time, it will send me reminders, that way I don't lose productivity time for not tracking time, or sends me a reminder if I have been idle for too long.

Pros

Thi software is easy to use, it can be minimized to not occupy a lot of on-screen space, it allows you to create reminders to alert you when you are not tracking time.

Cons

The only complaint y a user interface problem, sometimes when you minimize and open the tool again, it may not display the buttons correctly, and it might be required to close it and reopen it.

### "Overall it has been great. The only thing I can't seem to find is custom date ranges with a total."

July 10, 2018

5.0

It is easy to track my VA's time and verify that she is actually working. She is in a different country.

Pros

It is really easy to track my virtual assistants time. Helps me keep track on when she is actually working.

Cons

I track her time Friday-Thursday so it is hard to get a total for that time. I have to add it up each week.

### "Big Brother for your Employees"

August 23, 2019

4.0

Pros

Takes up little CPU, doesn't interfere with your work. Screenshot capabilities good for supervising bosses.

Cons

Really slow in loading tasks once I add them to basecamp takes forever for them to appear in Hubstaff. Bugs in the upgrades
