Prioritize privacy and trust

All the time tracking benefits without compromising trust

Hubstaff

Hubstaff includes intrusive monitoring tools like GPS, screen capture, mouse activity tracking, and more. This may undermine trust within teams and negatively impact the work culture.

Toggl

Toggl takes a no-surveillance approach.

Instead of monitoring everyone's screens and activity, it helps your team track work output, not input — encouraging accountability and self-management.

This approach allows your team to focus on what truly matters: delivering exceptional results without micromanagement or privacy intrusions.

Custom reporting and analytics

Get productivity and profitability insights from your team’s time logs

Hubstaff

Hubstaff only offers basic time reporting and lacks customizable dashboards for in-depth insights into team efficiency and project profitability.

Toggl

Toggl has three in-depth reporting tools:

  • Reports: Generate project and team timesheet reports to see how your team spends their billable and non-billable hours.
  • Insights: Make better business decisions by spotting trends. Identify bottlenecks by comparing estimated vs. actual efforts. Track project profitability with income vs. expense reports.
  • Analytics: Build custom charts and time reporting dashboards to analyze and present insights into your team’s tracked hours.

Testimonial
It's not one of those apps where you need to spend half a day figuring out how to actually use it: sessions can be started as they happen or added later, and once the app has got a feel for your schedule and how you work, it'll even make suggestions about what you want to track next.
