Time tracking web application?
mcnicks | Apr 26 2006
Hiya, We use an internally designed spreadsheet to track time spend on different projects / grants at work. I have decided that the computing support team needs to track time in slightly different categories so I plan to implement something separately. Does anybody have recommendations for simple, web based time tracking applications? Ideally it should be fairly informal and not too details: I do not want to track time spent on individual issues or to use a stopwatch of some kind to time things explicitly. Basically, I would like my team to be able to sit down at the end of the day and record things like "I spent X hours on project Y". Any ideas? Thanks, 10 Comments

I work at a design and marketing firm, and each project has a sheet that delineates the project's scope, and it inclueds a column for tracking time along with a code for tracking what was done during that time, such as Revisions, Design, Proofing, Finalizing, etc. So when we're asked to do another brochure, we already know from experience that it takes roughly X hours, so we know what a safe estimate is for our clients. It also lets us track each employee's time-to-budget ratio, and lets us see what projects killed us because we underestimated how long it would take to complete. (Or what clients abused their privileges.) » POSTED IN:
