When handling multiple clients at the same time, this setup helps keep entries organized without much confusion.“ March 29, 2026 CJ Chris U J Bookkeeper and Administrative Support in CanadaAccounting, Self-employedUsed the software for: 1-2 years. “There isn’t a strong way to add detailed context to each entry, so it mainly captures how long was spent rather than what was actually done.“ March 29, 2026 CM Christin M Business OwnerConstruction, 11 - 50 employeesUsed the software for: More than 2 years. “Another great aspect is how TT allows me to track time spent on projects which eradicates overpaying or underpaying for work done.“ July 7, 2026 Cristiano F ConsultantInternet, Self-employedUsed the software for: More than 2 years. “Custom reporting and deeper filtering are locked behind paid plans, which feels limiting for more advanced needs.“ July 13, 2026 CM Christin M Business OwnerConstruction, 11 - 50 employeesUsed the software for: More than 2 years. “I have been using Toggl Track for quite sometime now - I like how it allows me to automatically track, plan and manage construction projects in my organization.“ July 7, 2026 Stone C Leadership CoachProfessional Training & Coaching, Self-employedUsed the software for: Less than 6 months. “Adding unclocked time or editing existing time entries can be tricky - the app will auto change dates as one enters or alters the time.

Content Writer Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Good Starting Tracker" March 16, 2026 4.0 I enjoyed Toggle Track. It was easy to use, I experienced few bugs and issues, and it provided a great value for a free software. Pros Toggl Track was really easy to use and a great value for money. I only required the free version, but I found it super helpful when tracking my time as a freelancer, especially in the years just starting out. Cons At the time, it lacked some flexibility for features in the free version that would be ideal for larger project management, but I believe these are addressed in the paid portion.

Office Manager Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Effortless Time Tracking with Toggl Track: A User-Friendly Experience" December 5, 2024 5.0 Toggl Track has been fantastic to use! I love how easy and user-friendly it is! It has made tracking my workload a breeze! I have tried a couple of other programs, but Toggl Track seems to work the best for what I need it for. I wanted to track all the tasks I spend most of my time on, just to get a sense of where my time is being allocated on a daily basis, and this program tracks that perfectly! Pros Toggl Track is very user-friendly. It is simple to navigate. I like how easy it is to continue with a previous project or add a new one. The colour-coding also helps to breakdown the areas in which I am spending most of my time. I also really like the reports tab - it's nice seeing how many hours have been worked and the percentage of my time spent on each project. Cons Sometimes, at the end of the day, I will use the mobile app to 'end' a task that I had started through the desktop webpage. I can see the task still counting when I enter the app, and so I will press the 'stop' button, but it does not always register. If I don't double-check it, then it will continue tracking time until the next morning when I return to Toggl Track. This just seems to be a small bug within the system. Alternatives considered [Microsoft Planner](https://www.capterra.com/p/227201/Microsoft-Planner/) Reason for choosing Toggl Toggl Track was the first program I tried and I really liked it from the get-go. It seemed to have all the features I required. I did not extensively try the Microsoft Planner, but that planner seems to be catered more towards team collaboration rather than just individual time tracking. I would use that planner with my team when required if we are working on the same projects, but if I am just tracking personal work production, I much prefer to just use Toggl Track.

Business Development Coordinator Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A fine option for a small team" January 9, 2025 3.0 Pros Easy to use and extremely customizable for teams Cons not as intuitive as I wish it was, bad app both on desktop and mobile Review Source LM Laura M. Digital marketing consultant and copywriter Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Tracking with Ease for profitability" November 29, 2024 5.0 I've been using Toggl track on and off for several years, but this year turning to more payments based on hours worked I am tracking all of my time. It has also helped me to see the billable vs non-billable time split. The reports are really helping me to understand how I work and to be able to plan my workload and time a bit better. I feel like I am much more profitable in my business now as I have a real understanding of actual time to do tasks and how to build in a non- billable time element to all client projects. Pros Toggl has made my client billing so much faster and easier. There is no need to click back and forth between toggl and platforms I'm using with the auto track function. I love being able to attach a client time track report with my invoices so clients can see a breakdown of time. The reports and analytics have also given me some great insight as to how I work and where I'm spending my hours. As well as assisting in balancing my time between different client's projects more evenly. Cons The are a few bugs in the auto-track and I do find that I often need to go in and edit the tracking. This is really my only bugbear with the application/ platform. Switched from [ClickUp](https://www.capterra.com/p/158833/ClickUp/) Hated ClickUp. It was an overly complicated platform for what I needed- which was just time tracking at the time. Review Source RR Renato R. Director Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Fantastic software for free but gets pricey if needed for a team of more than 5." December 1, 2024 5.0 After two years working with it, only one time the system was down and we couldn't access it for about two hours, no issues aside from that. Pros It is very intuitive and easy to track time for different projects, the app works great and the features to be able to add different costs levels are cool. Cons The lack of a plan just like the free version but with more seats, the jump to get more users is a bit pricey and includes many features that maybe are not that required on some cases. It would be great to just be able to pay for extra seats on the free plan.

PHD student Research Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Good tool for study and work track time" November 28, 2024 5.0 It is really a good tool to track time. I haven't use all the features now, but each time I told myself: "Can I do this thing?", the answer is always yes I can do this with the tracker. It is easy to track time between all the different projects and jobs that you have. Especially when doing small contracts when you have a specific number of hours to do (like research assistant). Pros Easy to use! I like the reminder that pops up after a time. The easiness to create projects and tasks. The connectivity with the apps for phone and computer. Cons I wish I could have my detailed report directly on the Mac OS app. Review Source AM Alex M. Founder and Consultant Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "A Win for a Solopreneur" December 18, 2024 5.0 I tried 3 or 4 different time tracking apps as a solopreneur and this was by far the best. Pros Ease of use. The time tracker and ability to add clients, projects, and tags is intuitive and flexible. Even the simple touch of having the time start when you begin typing enhances utility. Cons Nothing notable--the range of features included in the free app is great. Reason for choosing Toggl ease of use, range of features available for free version Review Source SC Steven C. Senior Event and Logistics Manager Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A great product that is easy and intuitive to use!" December 8, 2024 5.0 Very, very satisfied and highly recommend. Pros Easy to use and simple to produce reports. Clients love the detail that is provided! Cons The price is a bit steep for a single user like me, but I don't know how to run my business without it! Alternatives considered [Tasks for Zendesk](https://www.capterra.com/p/202000/Tasks-app-for-Zendesk/)[Clockify](https://www.capterra.com/p/169607/Clockify/) Reason for choosing Toggl Looked up multiple reviews of "Free Time and Billing Tracker". After trying the free version, I converted to a paid subscription to get the additional features and functions I wanted. Review Source JF John F. Chief Engineer Design Used the software for: 2+ years ### "I trust this app" November 29, 2024 5.0 It's been very good. It's an integral part of my billing process to my clients and it's pretty easy and complete to use Pros Works across many platforms (desktop, web, mobile) Cons I wish it would highlight when a time entry is not attached to a project. I use Toggl to track time spent on clients projects and bill them. When I mess up and don't attach an entry to a project, I have to work backwards and figure out if I can confidently assign an entry to the right client account. When I can't I have to loose the time and billing. 100% this is my failure to do entries correctly, but it would be awesome if there were alerts to entries from the day prior that don't have projects attached. I can probably remember what I was doing...it's when I'm doing this at the end of the month that I can't always tie things back Switched from [Microsoft Excel](https://www.capterra.com/p/176574/Excel/) Needed a simpler solution and transparency with web links to reports is great to build trust with my clients Review Source JG Jessica G. Consultante en optimisation d'affaires Consumer Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "The platform excels at providing a simple and efficient way to track time" November 28, 2024 5.0 Overall, my experience with Toggl Track has been positive. The platform excels at providing a simple, efficient way to track time, whether you're an individual or part of a team. Its clean, intuitive interface makes it easy to use, even for beginners. The ability to generate detailed reports and analyze time spent on various projects has been instrumental in improving productivity and identifying bottlenecks in workflows. Pros One of the standout features of Toggl Track is its simplicity and ease of use. The intuitive interface allows you to start tracking time with just a few clicks, which is perfect for both individuals and teams. I also appreciated the detailed reporting tools, which provide valuable insights into how time is being spent across different projects. Another great aspect is the flexibility Toggl Track offers. Whether you're using it on your desktop, mobile device, or browser extension, the synchronization is seamless. The integration capabilities with other tools like Asana and Trello also make it incredibly convenient to streamline workflows. Finally, the visual representation of time logs and the ability to tag or categorize tasks make it easy to stay organized and focused on priorities. It's a powerful yet user-friendly tool for anyone looking to optimize their time management. Cons Users must remember to start and stop timers, which can lead to inaccuracies if forgotten. Some competitors provide automatic tracking to address this issue. Switched from [Clockify](https://www.capterra.com/p/169607/Clockify/) Toggl is more user friendly and I like the interface more than Clockify Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Executive Recruiter Legal Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Toggl is Fabulous for Time Tracking! " December 4, 2024 4.0 I've been using it for 5+ years and love it! Easy to use, easy to setup, and helpful for accountability on where your time is going. Pros Toggl is easy to use! You can create projects easily, add team members, and get a great understanding of where your time is going on a daily, weekly, monthly, or annual basis. Cons It sometimes randomly will open a new tab in your web browser to tell you about changes happening to Toggl. Alternatives considered [Asana](https://www.capterra.com/p/184581/Asana-PM/) Reason for choosing Toggl Toggl was easier to setup, free and I could use it immediately. Switched from [Asana](https://www.capterra.com/p/184581/Asana-PM/) Asana was really new in their time tracking feature and it was clunky. Toggl was easy to use immediately! Review Source DL Dakota L. E-commerce developer Internet Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Love Toggl Track for Freelance Hours Tracking" October 30, 2025 5.0 I've been using Toggl Track for two years now as a freelance developer and it's become an essential part of my workflow. The app is incredibly reliable - I track all my project hours and it's never lost data or glitched on me. What I love most is that I've never felt pressured to upgrade to the paid version. The free tier genuinely has everything I need for tracking time and creating invoices for my clients. It's perfect for solo users and freelancers who need cost-effective time tracking without sacrificing quality. I honestly can't recommend it enough to other freelancers. Pros The free version is incredibly generous - I've been using it for two years without ever hitting a paywall that matters. It's perfect for logging client hours as a freelancer. The interface is super intuitive and the timer starts with just one click. Really impressed that the only features locked behind the paid tier are a couple of widgets that I honestly don't need. Everything essential for time tracking and generating invoices is completely free. Cons The only thing I'd change is adding more customization options for reporting, especially for power users who want more detailed breakdowns. Some of the advanced widgets are locked behind the paid tier, but honestly, they're not essential for most freelancers. It would be nice to have a bit more flexibility in how reports are formatted for clients, but it's a pretty minor issue. Review Source YC Ying C.

Pros Tracking time on projects manually is prone to errors which lead to huge losses. In my case, I use Toggl Track to track time on projects offline so as I can accurately pay for what’s done. With Toggl Track, I have been able to track bug and issues in real-time. Cons I have had a remarkable experience with Toggl Track without drawbacks nor sophisticated features to customize.

Chief Marketing Officer E-Learning Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Easy-to-use tool for managers to supervise their team" July 13, 2025 5.0 Overall, a great, easy-to-use product that I would recommend to all managers and teams with freelancers. Pros Toggl is a fantastic product for both users and managers. As a manager, I use it to manage my team, which has several freelancers. I can see the areas they're working on, what takes up a lot of their time, and where there are inefficiencies and room for improvement. As a user, I find it easy to use, intuitive, and with a lot of customization options. Cons Setting up for the first time took some time, especially with all the options for tracking. There is definitely a learning curve. The reporting and data could also use some improvement. They made some improvements over the past year or so, but I feel it could be made even easier, especially for managers. Review Source RT Ricki T. Owner Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great free time tracking option" November 21, 2025 5.0 Overall it's good, especially if you only want to use it to track time spent on clients and all the projects. Pros I enjoy the ease of use and the ability to break it down by multiple clients. I enjoy the reporting function as well, so I can bill weekly, bi-weekly or monthly Cons That setting billable rates is something that needs to be paid for. With multiple clients it would be nice to have the rates attached to each of their profiles Review Source OI Obehi I.

I thought it was a great tool to use while freelancing to keep track of what companies I was dedicating the most time towards and track my hourly income Pros I feel like it was really easy to do the most basic kinds of time tracking. Just starting and stopping time and labeling what the task was was super straightforward Cons I feel like it got a little bit more complicated when I started trying to understand the project folders and tasks within those folders. Fixing mistakes I made in labeling also were a little confusing. Review Source TS Travis S.

Cons This is more of a challenge because I find little to dislike about it. I haven't explored many of its more advanced features yet because the core feature set works very well for me.

The data insights it provides is also impressive. Cons What I found while trialing it was that the only real way to get the best value from it, was to upgrade away from the free version.

It’s a simple yet powerful tool that fits perfectly into my routine as a freelancer. Tracking my 3-hour workdays has never been easier, and the insights it provides have helped me stay focused and productive. While there’s a minor hiccup with the mobile app, it doesn’t take away from the overall value Toggl Track brings to my workflow. It’s become an essential part of how I manage my time and stay on top of my tasks. Highly recommend! Pros As a freelancer working just 3 hours a day, Toggl Track has been a game-changer for managing my time efficiently. The intuitive interface makes it incredibly easy to start and stop timers, even when switching between tasks or projects. I love how customizable it is—you can tag and categorize your activities to see exactly where your time is going. The detailed reports are another standout feature. They give me clear insights into how my hours are spent, helping me optimize my workflow and ensure I’m staying productive. Plus, the ability to set up reminders and integrate with tools I already use keeps everything streamlined. Overall, Toggl Track has not only helped me stay organized but also made me more aware of how valuable my time is. It’s perfect for freelancers like me who need simple yet effective time-tracking without the hassle.
