### "Simple and reliable time tracking, just wish reporting were more flexible"

July 13, 2026

4.0

Overall, Toggl Track has been a solid, dependable tool for tracking hours across various projects for more than a year. It's easy to use daily, requires no learning curve, and the free plan genuinely covers most of what I need. The reporting limitations are a real drawback when I want more detailed insights, but they don't outweigh the convenience and reliability of the core time-tracking experience. It's a good tool overall, even if not a perfect one.

Pros

What I appreciate most about Toggl Track is how much you get with the free plan alone - unlimited time entries and projects, up to 5 users, and a clean, intuitive interface. Starting and stopping a timer takes seconds, and the whole experience feels genuinely effortless. After using it for over a year across different projects, it has become second nature and never gets in the way of my actual work.

Cons

My main frustration is that the reporting features feel a bit rigid, especially on the free plan. Basic Summary and Detailed reports are fine for a quick overview, but if you want to slice the data differently or build something more tailored to a specific client or project, you quickly hit a wall. Custom reporting and deeper filtering are locked behind paid plans, which feels limiting for more advanced needs.

### "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.

### "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.

Toggl was much easier to use for a variety of reasons, particularly the levels of tracking available and NOT having to log into the app every time I opened it. Good grief, it's not a banking app!

### "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.

### "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.

Alternatives considered

It has a good app, and cool features like separate costs and project organization

### "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.

Switched from

[Time Tracker by eBillity](https://www.capterra.com/p/122309/eBillity-Time-Tracker/)

It was not exactly what I needed... I wanted a free tool to track time on several projects and tasks to see how long it takes to make things done.

### "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!

### "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

### "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.

### "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.

### "Great. Simple. Nothing Unique, but that's ok. "

August 11, 2026

5.0

It's great, free, simple to use, and keeps tasks and projects organized per client, which makes keeping track of billable hours a breeze.

Pros

Toggle is super straight forward to use and serves its purpose perfectly in terms of time keeping on a task-basis and for project level time keeping.

Cons

It doesn't boast very many unique features that can't be found in other native time keeping apps built in to PM softwares like Asana or Clickup.

### "How time is wasted in the editorials."

December 26, 2025

5.0

Toggl Track has enabled me to understand the extent with which our small editorial team is spending time on reviews, revisions and administration, and workloads become more transparent with Toggl Track.

Pros

I prefer to set a timer with a single touch and also later on have clear summaries, this assists me to delegate editorial work without micromanaging the team.

Cons

I do not like the sync hiccups that will happen occasionally, and the fact that advanced permissions are restrictive when working with the various editor roles.

November 29, 2025

5.0

It's been amazing! I use it every day and I definitely recommend it. I use it for work and other personal tasks I want to track.

Pros

It's very easy to use, as it's very intuitive. I tried other tracking apps and this was the one I found the easiest. I also like that they have an app.

Cons

The integration with Google Calendar could be better. I had to use a third-party app in order to have my tasks added on my Google Calendar and vice-versa. It would be great if Toggl Track could do so automatically.

Cons

Wasn't anything I disliked. I did not need it for advanced tasks so for simply tracking your time in a structured way, this is great.

Toggl has been awesome for in depth tracking and reporting of our time and giving us the ability to analyze how long both external and internal tasks are taking. We then can prioritize on the most important tasks and start trimming down tasks that aren't truly providing value.

Pros

Toggl is easy to set up, integrates with every tool, and makes time tracking so easy.

Cons

It can be confusing at times to track between my google calendar and then whats getting over to the Toggl Track. The UI tries to be intuitive but sometimes doesnt work well.

5 stars across the board. Simple, easy to use, does what I need it to.

Toggl is fantastic! Super simple to use, and works great to help me keep track of the time I spend on design projects. Plus, when you download the app, they have an "always on top" feature that keeps the window above anything I'm working on, so that I don't forget about it.

Cons

The always on top feature doesn't always work perfectly, but I usually don't have an issue.
