Risk Management Financial Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "A simple and straightforward tool for time tracking" December 6, 2024 5.0 I am very happy with it, cause it is simple, and does the job well Pros I has a very straightforward mobile app. Good for calculating budgets Cons The timer does not let me edit past time records, which is not very important but can be fixed. Review Source MT Mihail T. Area Sales Manager Mechanical or Industrial Engineering Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Tick is my personal assistant. It has helped me achieve a balance between personal life and work matters." December 7, 2023 5.0 Tick is good. Saves time, energy and gives a more efficient and profound results. I treasure Tick. Pros Tick integrates with other tools so easily and blends with the working environment super well. Managing time generally has improved my personal life bringing enjoyment in everything I do since I do it at the right time not at the expense of other activities. Exporting time entries is quite easy which makes invoicing simple and achievable. Cons Very profound and extremely fast. Tick's benefits weigh more higher. I don't find anything bad about it. It's performance is good. Switched from [Clockify](https://www.capterra.com/p/169607/Clockify/) A friend recommended Tick to me and I like it more. Review Source SC Sasha C. President and Founder Management Consulting Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great project tracking!" July 25, 2023 4.0 Pros Love that I can have multiple projects under a single client. Love that you can create monthly recurring time budgets on a per project basis as well as open projects. Cons I don't feel it connects well to many other platforms if that is needed. For instance, importing it into data management platforms so can see and manipulate the data on dashboards. Alternatives considered [QuickBooks Time](https://www.capterra.com/p/151722/TSheets/)[Harvest](https://www.capterra.com/p/75598/Harvest/) Reason for choosing Tick Cost and ease of use and...those recurring monthly projects! Review Source RH Rob H. Creative Director, Senior Designer and Developer Design Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Switching from Toggl to Tick" April 18, 2017 3.0 We made the move to Tick because Toggl didn't provide an easy way to track the progress of a project or task. With Tick, we're able to see this, to an extent, while tracking time. However, this only shows up \*after\* you've "entered" time. So, there isn't a way to view the "estimated" time budget, factoring in the timer that's currently running. It would be a huge, AMAZING, help to be able to see this in REAL time is not at the end of the day, when I've submitted my timers and have already gone over time budget by several hours. Additionally, Toggl has a desktop app that works really well'and is native. Tick's app isn't really an app at all, it's a "mini browser" that refreshes every time you open it from the taskbar. Sometimes I'm naming a timer, and a notification pops up and closes Tick, or I need to navigate away for a second, and when I come back, it refreshes'losing all of my information. Toggl's desktop app also reminds you to track time, when your timer isn't running, during user designated hours (ie between 9:00am and 6:00pm, if I don't have a timer running it'll remind me periodically to remember to track time). In general, Tick's design is mediocre at best. If it wasn't for the easier-to-view time budget feature, we wouldn't be using Tick in fact we're considering switching because of the lack of other features. A redesign is long over due. Another down fall of Tick, is the fact that time can't be inputted based on time of day. For example, I forgot to start my timer after lunch, but I know I started working around 1:00 pm and then switched tasks around 2:48, and then switched back at 3:32 noon of which was logged. It would be much easier to log time-based on hours of the day, like Toggl does. But in other circumstances, it's helpful to be able to just put in a specified amount of time. Plus, the hours of day allow us to track our employees and see exactly when during the day they weren't clocking time. This is especially helpful with remote employees. In fact, before we switched to Toggle, I was able to find out that an employee wasn't really working when he said he was, or was padding their numbers. But, with the current Tick setup this is nearly impossible to pin-point. If you guys want to consider a redesign, we'd love to work with you. Check us out: www.steadfastdesignfirm.com Pros Time budget tracking right in the time tracker. Cons Doesn't have a good, easy to use interface. Time budgets are visible or represented until timers are "entered" almost defeating the purpose of showing them in the timer in the first place. Doesn't have a native desktop app, only a sorry excuse for "something". Time can't be inputted based on time of day. Review Source LaToya B. Associate Director of Programs Higher Education Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Using Tick Depends on Company Needs" November 21, 2022 3.0 Since my team of graphic designers is the smallest of my teams, for me it isn't worth the effort to have a separate system for them to use. But it could be amazing for someone else. Pros Example: Graphic Designers do not necessarily need to be in the office or on campus to complete their assignments. But we do need a way to assign their projects (tasks), allocate the time/hours allowed for the project, and any other details. You can set these parameters for an individual employee or for a team of graphic designers. This team is quite small so it works. Cons The benefit of this software is also the downfall. It works great for a small team. This is not something I would use for my larger teams because I cannot integrate it with our university-wide Workday system. As a work team, we use Trello and Zapier but it doesn't necessarily correlate with timesheets.

Also helped with internal budget planning. Pros That was a middle-term project with people distributed across the globe. Part of team and client were traveling almost all the time. When we provided the client reports generated by Tick they say that it was just what they need. Client wanted to watch 2 indicators at a glance: time balance between different sub-projects/activities and budget spent. All that the client was able to access from his mobile phone (a few guys on client side used even Apple watch). Cons When I installed Tick app on my Android phone I found its battery draining much faster (w/o Tick app I needed to re-charge my phone every second day, but once I installed the app, I needed to make a recharge every day). When we started using the app, API worked unstable from time to time (invalid response arrived), but for the last 5 months that was not a case anymore.

Editorial Director Media Production Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Serviceable Time-Tracking App" August 3, 2018 4.0 Pros Tick allows you to track time to projects, broken into as many sub-categories as you need to encompass all the elements of that project. You can easily see a breakdown of your time and ensure that you're tracking the right amount of time to a day/week or project. It also allows you to set time budgets you can track against. Cons The reporting function can be a bit cumbersome; I wish it would automatically port to Excel or into more of a spreadsheet format, rather than a long list. It also will automatically create a "shortcut" menu based on your recent entries, so you don't have to scroll through all the projects/tasks to find the one you need to enter time into, but I wish that shortcut menu was customizable rather than auto-generated.

Review Source Bukola S. Data scientist Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great way to measure project speed." June 30, 2018 4.0 Pros Tick simplifies how our projects are tracked and budgeted, providing every employee with an idea of how much time is expended on every project. Resulting in increased productivity on the long run ,as employees are able to compare their speed rate on one project against another. Tick integrates well with Basecamp ,and it is so easy to import our projects from Basecamp into Tick.Likewise , making it very easy to estimate the cost of new projects and compare them with past projects we have done.It has a nice Chrome extension and can be used while on the move ,via mobile. Cons It is a whole lot of work trying to manage a project management program on one hand and using Tick on the other hand ,on a single project. Will be a good development ,if Tick can be upgraded into a full blown project management tool. Review Source Sonakshi M. Sales Specialist Consumer Electronics Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Tick is an easy way to track your project and task and can also track the progress of project." August 15, 2018 5.0 It reminds me to track my time and also reminds me about the progress. It can also import my projects and add various tasks in it. I can easily retrieve my data from it. It could prove the great app for the upcoming time in the business world. Pros It can be used easily and it’s the time budgeting. Its auto-fill feature for finding out project is something good. The data saving method of this software is always proved too good. I can easily see all the projects and task at a one place and it saves lots of time. Cons Its interface is not that good. Native desktop app is not available and the time can’t be inserted on time of day. People say that they found base camp and liquid planner way better than this software.

September 10, 2020 5.0 Tick has been a crucial find for me that helps me be more effective in my work and keep track of time seamlessly. Pros I use Tick daily to help monitor and track the time I spend on various projects. I do some freelance work that requires keeping track of hours worked on a project and would be lost without Tick. I love the plug-in for Google Chrome that enables me to easily start and stop the timer without opening another program or window. It's been a lifesaver! Cons If you want to have more functionality (additional projects, etc.) you may have to pay more for a plan with those features but it seems more than comparable with other software on the market. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Marketing Director Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A flexible and reliable time tracking solution!" May 1, 2019 5.0 Tick makes it easier to hit our budget goals because we are managing our time so well now. Pros I love how much Tick helps our different team members track their time spent on different project goals. It is easy to know exactly how much time was spent on certain tasks within a project. We can quickly figure out if certain team members are spending too much time or too little time on a task compared to our own internal numbers. The user interface is very easy to navigate, so it is easy to train people to use the software too. Cons I just wish I had started using this software sooner. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer QA Test Lead Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Sophisticated applications like Tick does matter in Project Management" May 3, 2018 5.0 Time tracking made easy and managing the task. Pros Adding and updating features is most important for any application and Tick does the same, it keeps on updating and adding new features. Easy to understand, use and manage the task. Ease of use what I like the most, you can use it on web/mobile anywhere and be updated with the notification on the go. Cons For me, there is nothing to complain about it. I wish I could integrate this application and send automated time sheets to all.

Track your time from anywhere, office on your laptop, or flight on phone. Making sense of how we use our time and analyzing performance accordingly. This app is from the future, helping us an in the present. Very useful for business professionals and individuals who are trying to work and study more efficiently. Cons Works great, runs well, nothing negative I can think of with Tick. Review Source SY Stan Y. Web Manager Publishing Used the software for: 2+ years ### "My company uses this just to track time spent on various projects and it works pretty well for us." April 28, 2017 4.0 Time tracking that we can't do anywhere else on our existing project systems. Pros Works on via the web as well as software installed on Mac or PC. For a company like ours who use a variety of browsers and operating systems, this seems to work the same for everyone. My preference is the web interface as it allows me to enter time as I'm doing it, ahead of time, or after the fact. I use the widget on the Mac side to provide regular reminders to log my time, which is the kick in the tush I usually need. Cons With a lot of projects on the account, it can take a while to switch from entering time into existing projects to editing that project or creating a new one. Doesn't integrate with our other project software (or we haven't tried to do so), so there's no detail to the projects...just a reference to log the time.

May 3, 2018 5.0 Organization of mass amounts of project information. Pros Customizable for each user within a company; keep track of information easy; easy to move from desktop or mobile app to web browser; very versatile ; notifications keep you up to date effortlessly; connects to google calendar Cons Updates come frequently it seems like, while most are good sometimes it is difficult for people to keep up with the changes. Review Source Juan Ignacio G. SEO Senior Analyst Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "It has a specific function and fulfills it without problems" December 20, 2017 4.0 Daily I load my hours worked for a special client, who pays us for hours and needs to see the detail of what actions we perform during that time. Pros Taking into account that it is a simple tool, time tracking is simple to do and adding hours only takes a few clicks. I like the possibility of changing the days in which to add the time used from tabs, access is much easier. Cons The view of hours charged per month seems a bit untidy and basic; when there is a need to have a monthly control over the tracked hours, the tool falls short and it is confusing to see the summary.

SEM/PPC Account Manager Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Useful and pratical in terms of organization" December 9, 2022 5.0 I would recommend it wthout a doubt Pros The most practical and intuitive software I've used in terms of time tracking. It offers every necessary tool to organise yourself better in your daily work. Cons The lack of features related to reporting.

Communications Coordinator Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "A pretty good option - if you don't mind the look" February 6, 2020 4.0 Tick helped us get a better understanding of how we were spreading out our time, allowing us to make some conscious decisions about shifting our priorities to further our goals. Pros My team and I trialed this software as a way to manage and track our time spent on various projects. At any given time we have 3 or 4 major things running, that fall under different portfolios, and we were looking to get a clear understanding of how that time was being divided. Tick allowed us to do this with ease, and that was it's biggest selling feature. We've used a ton of software and the biggest turn off is "how much time does this take to use". An app that exists to track my time shouldn't need a separate tracker for how much time I waste using it. Tick was quick and efficient. Cons It looks u - g - l - y. This is maybe a personal issue more than it would be for other people, but it really made using it hard because it is just SO visually unappealing. The 'look' of things is so important these days, it always stands out when software just isn't up to snuff. Review Source Cindy C. Owner Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Tick Review" October 23, 2019 5.0 My overall experience with the Tick software is that I am a bit underwhelmed with the general operation of it and also the design is very plain. No vibrant colors or unique features that really stand out for me. The look of the software just doesn't strike me as software that I would recommend to colleagues or to friends. It's just a bit too plain and boring. Pros What I liked most about using Tick software is just how well it organises my time for me. It literally counts down the amount of minutes it takes me to complete a task or how long I still have left over to finish up on a task that I am working on. Cons What I like least about Tick software is that while the first 30 days are free a monthly subscription after the free time trial has ended is a bit of a steep rate considering that Tick really is just a glorified clock ticking down the time just as your wristwatch does. Unfortunately I do not really see a lot of value for money in using Tick unless they can maybe add another feature to the software that could make it worth the almost twenty dollar a month price plan.

PV Production Manager Utilities Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Tick Overall Review" December 7, 2016 4.0 Tick is a great add-on for Basecamp. It provides an easy way to enter time for different projects. We use it in conjunction with Basecamp II. It is super easy to import your projects and add different tasks. i.e. For our projects, we assigned tasks such as Construction QC, Construction Engineering, Indirect Time, Meetings, PTO, Training, etc. Easy user interfaces to select project, select task and enter the time completed. It also exports to excel in which it was easy to retrieve the data and add to pivot tables to graphically view where time is being spent. It used to have a great timer app for the computer or cell phone but security concerns with Basecamp shut it down for Basecamp II. Not sure if it's been added to Basecamp III. Great value for up and coming businesses and with the export capability can prepare for bigger platforms. Pros Ease of use. Cons Needs the timer function back. Review Source Response from Higher Pixels December 8, 2016 Hey Frankie, Thank you for reviewing Tick. We've added new phone apps and a Mac App to replace the old Adobe Air application. We also rolled out Basecamp 3 support early this summer so you can track time inside Basecamp 3 if you ever decide to upgrade.
