### "ActiTIME - Tracking and Billing Made Easy"

May 5, 2022

4.0

Overal, I have been using ActiTIME self-hosted version for over 4 months and I love it. It provides me with everything I need to track my daily tasks, to properly provide clients a detailed report on tasks for invoices I send using Invoice Ninja and lastly it doesn’t require a monthly subscription which is always a plus!

Pros

The pros for this software are easily the ability to host the software yourself; I currently have the software self-hosted and have a one user license at the moment. Really nice features that provide everything I need on a daily basis to track, invoice and get paid.

Cons

The software does have some features and nice to haves missing, but overall I feel it’s a pretty descent package for the price they charge. One feature I would love to see is when a time is started for tracking, it also timestamps WHEN it was started and WHEN it was stopped instead of just providing the total time.

Reason for choosing actiTIME

No subscription, low user cost that’s perpetual, straight forward self-hosted instructions, browser and mobile app support.

### "Excellent visibility into time, cost, and team performance"

November 13, 2025

5.0

Our experience has been excellent. actiTIME helps us track performance data accurately, manage client projects more efficiently, and make better strategic decisions. It gives us the kind of clarity every founder needs when managing multiple projects and teams.

Pros

actiTIME gives me complete control and visibility over how time and resources are being used in the company. The reporting tools are the strongest feature, they make it simple to analyze productivity, monitor budgets, and evaluate project profitability without complicated spreadsheets.

Cons

I would love to see more visualization options within reports, such as interactive dashboards that update automatically.

### "actiTIME has been great for time-tracking projects in our business"

August 7, 2023

5.0

For our time tracked projects that we bill clients actiTIME has saved us quite a bit of time vs managing that by hand as we have multiple people working on a project with one person doing the billing for both. It keeps us from having to collect that information manually and then type in that information on the invoices.

Pros

Offers quite a bit of functionality for free. Time tracking and the ability to carry that information over into invoices are critical features we need to complement the other SaaS products that we use (wave, clickup, etc). Project setup and time-tracking work very well for us and does everything we currently need.

Cons

The reports/invoices are still a little clunky compared to the features offered by Wave and other competitors. As far as I know there is no way to have the invoices remember recurring billing items that are not related to expenses or time-tracking. We would like a fixed monthly billing item on each of our invoices, currently we add those by hand.

Reason for choosing actiTIME

Time tracking in actiTIME was easy to use and offered more functionality without too many extra features we didn't need. The free plan offered everything we were looking for.

### "Straightforward to set up, maintain and use"

December 22, 2025

5.0

Easy onboarding and straightforward to set up and maintain. I’ve used this system in multiple companies now and it’s a useful tool to have in place for reporting and accounting purposes.

Pros

It’s a very straightforward system to both set up and use (both as an admin and end user). The licensing model is cheap and accessible. Setting up teams and projects/tasks is easy to do as well as maintain.

Cons

Some of the reports can be tricky to work through. To determine user activity, I have had to export a report and then carry out some basic Excel formulas to calculate the exact metrics needed.

### "Proffesional Timesheet "

January 1, 2026

5.0

Pros

I appreciate the easy access to fill out my timesheet and the intuitive navigation through the options.

Cons

When I started using Acti-TIME, I would save the hours before exiting the timesheet, but then I realized the hours were saved automatically.

Very good, my team and I are using this product for more than one year and we are confident using it.

Pros

UI and interface are neat, the software is well designed and can be used without hassle. Time tracking feature enables us to continuously improves our tasks and charge estimate.

Cons

Mostly in english, require adaptation for some of our users. Also needs a little bit of tuning of workhours when users are in different zones.

### "ActiTime Review"

April 2, 2025

4.0

Overall, I am satisfied with the product

Pros

User friendly interface. Very easy and simple to use and set up.

Cons

The Time Tracking Structure should have an additional level after the Middle grouping level and cater for consulting business. For example, I am unable to do Client > Product > Project > Rates. The personal time-track reminder should also not be sent just once but everyday continuously as long as the time track number of hours has not been met.

April 3, 2025

Richard, Thanks for your feedback! For more detailed structuring, you can use Types of Work or Custom Fields to add extra layers of grouping. As for the reminders, that’s a great suggestion—we’ll definitely keep it in mind for future improvements.

I'm a sole proprietor who needs record for billing clients. ActiTIME has been the perfect solution. I recommend it highly.

Pros

To track time on projects and tasks, it doesn't get any better.

### "Simple but powerful"

November 19, 2018

5.0

Pros

For our organisation, we need a very simple tool that could provide a rough indication for what the time is spend on for the needs of strategical planning and budgeting. Many other softwares are very focused on minute-by-minute reporting which becomes quite cumbersome when that level of accuracy is not needed. ActiTIME, though allowing making a very detailed reports, too, can be ‘stripped down’ to very basic functions that are both very similar to use for the workers reporting their time and for the administrator analysing the reports. It took very short time to learn how to use it and the interface is quite intuitive - no handbooks needed.

Cons

The usability of the app can be further improved. For example, the timer function is hanging around all the time taking the screen space even though we do not use it. A possibility to switch it off would be appreciated.

### "Powerful and flexible time tracking"

November 21, 2017

4.0

Pros

After reviewing 10 different time tracking solutions, we decided on actiTime. User set up is easy, and entering weekly time is a breeze. Once your timesheet is set you have a single view a week at a time making data entry straight forward. This was key to our organization as we did not want our users to waste time entering their weekly timesheet. Visibility to where time is being spent is excellent. Ability to dump raw data to Excel to then create pivots for analysis is helpful.

Cons

Reporting capabilities could use some enhancements. There are a few graphical reports but would like a bit more flexibility to be able to see different views. While the raw data export meets the need, it's not ideal. This would be an area that could move this product from good to great.

### "Its a great tool for tracking time"

March 28, 2018

We need to track hours for government tax credits. This works well.

Pros

Overall its very easy to use. In the past we used EzLabor which was much more complex and our teams had challenges with it.

Cons

Sometimes sorting through tasks and adding or deleting them can be a bit challenging. If you could find a way to make this easier it would be great.

### "The timestamps have a certain benefit in the projects."

March 13, 2018

5.0

The use of actiTIME has made it possible to take the time in my company, and in each of the employees, knowing how long the employee worked, and what extra time corresponds.

Pros

What I like most about actiTIME is the ease of taking time and, at the same time, doing a project on the same platform, it is great to have two such useful functions in one place.

Cons

I do not like that actiTIME has such high prices, clearly this is not such an important factor, but I would like prices to decrease a bit.

Easy and Affordable Time Management software for our business. Reporting is also extremely usefull.

Pros

Fast and easy to Set up, Easy to use, and with the reporting options it makes Monthly and Yearly ends efficient.

Cons

Our only DOwnside is the calculation of Vacation Hours. No Automatic calculations for a % based off of Hours Worked. However With all the features being added, I can see it being added sometime in the feature, Hopefully.
