Cure For Time Wastage, Good For Productivity
Comments: Overall, Time Doctor is great for productivity, time tracking, and project management. It has the best Leave-Tracking features that send notifications if the person is still working on a task. In all reality, it has great usability with many different cool options such as time-tracking, browsing history, breaks, and idle time reminders, etc.
Pros:
I have been an active member of PeoplePerHour for almost 4 years now and Time Doctor has been a great help for me. It has helped me track my time spent on various projects that I do on daily basis. I manage my workflow and pace by keeping an eye on Time Doctor and also get proof of my work hours to demand payment. I'm on the Desktop application most of the time but I do use a mobile application that helps me track the time when I'm traveling and working. It also gives an option to manually edit time and I used it sometimes when I spent time on the phone or forget to launch the application while working. The activity bar on the desktop is one important feature that I use and I love it.
Cons:
I check for updates regularly and try to keep my software up-to-date. However, I noticed some mal-functioning when my Time Doctor didn't stop for the whole night and showed non-stop 13 hours of work. I had to reinstall the application to fix the trouble. The activity bar on the screen is sometimes pretty annoying as it doesn't go behind the apps. It always stays on top and blocks the view. There should be an option to resize it and push it behind as well. Other than that, I'm quite happy with the overall performance of the Time Doctor.

Alternatives Considered:
The best time tracking tool I have used so far.
Comments: It's been great! It helped us to calculate worked hours and use non-productive apps. Useful when you have people working remotely on different projects.
Pros:
I like how easily you can access your team's timeline through different reports (Excel and PDF). As well, how you can categorize the Productive or Non-Productive apps and websites so your team spends time on what it's related to their role.
Cons:
The idle time is not very accurate if it's because they are non-productive or because they are on a call. And when trying to get explanations from the Time Doctor Support Team, they don't know if a team member might be using auto-clickers to reduce their idle time or not.

Not a way to improve productivity.
Comments: Not a great experience. People are not robots that have to be infront of the computer 8 hours a day and constantly typing or moving the coursor. The webcam shot feature is beyond a invation of privacy, mostly for people who work from home. It is a micromanagement app that is completly unnecessary.
Pros:
The app is pretty easy to use.. You load tasks and start them by clicking on PLAY. It has lots of features including webcam shots, screenshots, time tracker and pop up that asks whether you've been working when there's no activity on the user's side. They have a computer and mobile app. Really good feature is that as a company you can set it up to blur screenshots taken so no information is leaked.
Cons:
It does not help employees to be productive. The sign that pops up when there's no mouse or keyboard activity shows even when you're watching a video, on a webinar or even making a presentation in which is mostly talking and it is not only super unprofessional but also, if you fail to click on the "Yes (I am working)" the time worked will turn orange and labeled as "Manually added time".

Time Doctor Review
Pros:
I found the Time Doctor app to be a great asset due to its easy-to-use time tracking capabilities and comprehensive features. With it, I can accurately monitor my work hours and those of my team, set up tasks and projects, and check our progress in real time. It also has a reminder system to help ensure that tasks are completed on schedule, as well as detailed reports to help analyze our performance and find areas for improvement.
Cons:
There is nothing to dislike in time doctor as of now

A flawless time tracking and activity tracking tool!
Comments: It had been a great experience with Time Doctor. Had we not got the life time deal from another vendor, we would have stuck with Time Doctor and honestly, even after getting the life time deal, things are not as smooth or as efficient as they were with Time Doctor. Time Doctor was truly remarkable and beats competition heads on.
Pros:
We had been using Time Doctor in our company for remote management of employees and for time tracking for some of our clients who wished that the time be tracked for the tasks that we worked on for them. I must say that after exploring 2-3 options, Time Doctor was one option that truly worked flawlessly. No issue was faced ever, be it installing on Mac or Linux or Windows or be it screen capturing or task management or a host of other activities that were tracked using Time Doctor.
Cons:
There was nothing to not like about this software. The only reason we shifted to another solution was that we were getting a pretty cheap Life Time Deal on another such solution.

Accurate and timely
Comments: As a General Virtual Assistant, using Time doctor is very rewarding and hassle free. It has all the functionality needed to run a business specially the beginners. Above all the ability to track the time of your worked hours. Easy to use software with lots of great features you can use to run a business.
Pros:
What I like about Time Doctor is its ability to record and tracked the number of hours your worked for your clients. It also calculate automatically your salary. And you can access the software using mobile.
Cons:
I have no complains when using Time Doctor. It helps me to provide my clients with accurate information. I was able to gain their trust and make them less worry because of the detailed information I submitted to them like the schedule of the tasks and recorded hours of worked.

Great and simple software for tracking employees' time
Pros:
Simplicity, nothing simpler than finding your task then press it to start your tracking session.
Cons:
Sometimes the syncing of time can be incorrect when switching between multiple computers, which can cause loss of working time.

The best option to measure the workforce and know exactly the hours worked by each person.
Comments: We have achieved excellent results with the help of this platform, the experience we have obtained has been excellent, we are proud to be using it in all sector of our company, because it has helped us understand the workforce and know exactly if our employees are fulfilling their corresponding working hours. Day after day we assign specific hours for each employee, this platform has helped to comply with all those corresponding schedules, we can know if an employee has not shown up at their specific time, as well as we can know if an employee has already fulfilled their corresponding hours. This platform has been easy to use and also to implement in our computers, it has taken us approximately a week to implement it and all the computers in this company, however the results we obtained after two weeks, where we correctly noticed how we were having a greater management of the hours worked by our employees. If your are looking for an app to manage the hours worked of each employee, this is the best option.
Pros:
Time Doctor has worked as a key platform for our business development and to control the productivity of each one of our employees, it is an excellent service to measure the work and working time of each employee, it is magnificent. One of the main things that I like about this platform is that it is able to monitor the App that each of the employees use on a daily basis, this App monitoring so that we can understand if the employees are us ing applications that are distracting of that make them lose work time, as well as help us understand which applications you use more them lose work time, as well as help us understand which apps you use more or which apps you use less. Another thing that I like is that this service was also used to monitor web browsing activity, so thanks to this platform we can know exactly which page our employees visit, in order to take measures ot the right time and prevent our employees from accessing suspicious websites or distracting from their work. Finally, I love that this App can automatically calculate the amount of money that has to be paid depending on the hours worked, we have set up a rate for each hour worked, so this platform makes the exact calculations of how much a worker should be paid employee depending on total hours worked including overtime.
Cons:
The only negative thing I have noticed about this platform is that it can influence the privacy of employees a bit, our company there are some employees who feel uncomfortable knowing that they are being monitored, it would be great if this platform implements a silent mode or invisible mode, in which the computers can be running without them noticing, this would help our employees feel much more comfortable and can work quietly without worries. Just as this introduces a bit of discomfort from our employees, it will also need to introduce it to other companies, so it is urgent that you implement a system in a stealth way.

Real Time Monitoring and Accurate Time Use Data for your Remote Workers
Pros:
With the latest technology, more effective collaborative tools have been developed to address the difficulties and disadvantages of hiring remote workers. Virtual Assistants are in demand helping companies Worldwide produce more and better results for a low cost. Most remote workers and Virtual Assistants are paid by the hour and with Time Doctor, the management can track their employees real work status and productivity time. The features are designed to monitor the agent's screens and open tabs to ensure that the workers are doing work related tasks and opening company approved sites. Dashboard shows agent status where a Green circle beside the users name- means the person is working, if red, means the person is not working or on break At the end of the day, a report on accurate time usage can be viewed. Data gives the total of hours worked. It also shows the different tasks and how much time spent per task. You can select total hours worked per day, week, or per month. What I like about Time Doctor is that it provides agent screenshots every 9 minutes. It also shows if there is a low activity period.
Cons:
Most benefits and advantages are for employers and management with the reports and actual agent status and work hours. However, the agent's Time Doctor Application / Dashboard is not easy to manage and use. Integration to company's accounting and company provided software can be complicated. For every task accomplished it should also be made available in their time doctor application. Agent should identify which task he/she is currently working on that particular hour by providing notes per hour after selecting which task category it belongs. Agents however can save permanent tasks instead of typing them saving them more time by just clicking on the saved task before he or she starts working.

There's no better system to use for activity tracking
Comments: I am solving employee's issues. I am overseeing what they do, and how they manage their own time. Plus, it allows us the possibility to have back-up data in case of a client's complaint.
Pros:
I think TimeDoctor has become one of those critical tools that we wouldn't be able to run our business without it. Screenshots activity is one of the most used features within our organization and it allows us to actually oversee and prevent any potential issues that may arise.
Cons:
Not at all. I think the app overall is fantastic and should be your daily companion.

Great for tracking remote employees
Comments: I moved to a remote workforce (even before the pandemic!) and TimeDoctor helps me do that with peace of mind by allowing for supervision.
Pros:
Time Doctor allows me to make sure my employees are working and billing their time without me being a nag. It has time clocks, screen captures, and reports, so I can see what they are doing any time I want, without them being aware of when I am watching so that I don't interrupt them or make them anxious. It also helps catch billable time and improve time wasting habits.
Cons:
They advertise that they work with payroll. But the software is not compliant legally with U.S. employment law (I am an employment lawyer so I am strongly aware of this). It is focused more on independent contractors, but most companies should be using this for employees instead of contractors. For employees, you will still need to have a separate time clock and use a good payroll company. So the clocking can be redundant and may annoy your employees.

Great for knowing how long a project took!
Comments: I'm keeping on task with the things that have to happen every day as well as have a way to look back and see what tasks are done at certain times of year. This helps us plan our department schedule for each upcoming year so we don't forget anything.
Pros:
Create your own projects and tasks. Works great for keeping a step by step task list for each project. Ability to edit time for when software updates and/or restarts are required. I love using Time Doctor Pro as my personal time keeper at work.
Cons:
Not so much of a con but more of a feature request: it would be great if the software kept some sort of log of active document time. I tend to work on a few documents at a time and it would be great to know how much time is spent on each document without having to manually switch projects/tasks for each document. I almost exclusively use Adobe Creative Cloud programs and Microsoft programs using Mac computers.

Keeping Track with Time Doctor
Comments: Overall, very satisfied with Time Doctor. It's fairly simple to use, accurate, and fulfills my needs.
Pros:
What I like most about Time Doctor is that it allows me to easily and accurately record the amount of time I'm working on a certain project or task. It allows me to show my clients how much time I was working on and how long each task took. I like that it also gives me a warning when I veer to a less-than productive site.
Cons:
Don't really have any complaints. The only thing that I would like to be better handled is the dashboard where time is viewed. The issue I have is that I'm occasionally responsible for reviewing subordinate work flows and I feel that it's somewhat difficult to view their profiles as easy it is for myself. I'm sure there's an easier way to do this, but I havent found it yet.

Best tool for tracking remote employees. We use it to track work hrs for our team in the Philippines
Pros:
Accurate time tracking for tasks and projects screen shots and app usage is one of my favorite features since it gives you a detailed info on where we spend the most time on our projects fare pricing and bulk discounts :) We integrate Time Doctor with asana for seamless task tracking Love the ability to change time spend on tasks manually in case there is need for it we get a weekly email with information on how our account is being use We can also manage and track time with the IOS app
Cons:
The desktop app looks a little old school on PC but is works fine. wish they had a better way to create tasks and mark tasks as completed when these are created inside time doctor, instead of having to delete them once they are done

Easy to use, time accuracy it maintain and support is very great.
Comments:
Main target to use software is save the time and using this i can save lot so other time can spend for family, otherwise i have no track of that.
We do not have to worry about the time just click and start and stop, one more benefit report are generated automatically with various attributes which we can show to client.
Pros:
Easy to use Dashboard with different report with accuracy Not allow us to open unwanted sites like fb, youtube etc support is very kind provide mobile support also
Cons:
In Billing, once a card is added we cannot delete that. so it should be like we can delete and add new. in desktop application its start record time when we set task name and press enter, instead of that we should click on the start button in account we need to define some sites URL, so whenever user open that it stop time record without his permission.

Time Doctor Feedback
Comments: Good thing about Time Doctor is that, we can easily monitor how many hours our members spent within that specific task and project, for desktop and laptop users, we can identify if the sites and links they opened were really useful for the company.
Pros:
What I like most about Time Doctor is that we can easily monitor the work of our team members and the task that they are currently working on
Cons:
The least of this app is that, we can't view in terms of mobile and manual time of the team members. We can't identify if the time they are consuming are really used for work since there are no links and sites provided by the said app but only the time they used for work.

Easy and Efficient Software
Comments: My overall experience with Time Doctor has been great, easy to set up, easy to use and the customer support is great. You do not have to wait long for your query to be resolved. I always recommend Time Doctor for anyone who is looking for time tracking software.
Pros:
I like flexibility it offers with managing multiple clients. I like how easy it is to set up and use.
Cons:
The new time doctor and classic time doctor confuses me. I have nearly lost my account before logging into the wrong one and trying to set up a new account as I didn't realise i was on the wrong version. Very confusing.

Was brilliant until recent changes/improvements..
Comments: Up until recently I would have said 'brilliant, what a difference in my life'. Right now I'm looking at other options while I wait for the support team to send emails back and forth..
Pros:
I have loved using timedoctor and referred many people to it. It has been amazing in helping me keep a track of time spent on different projects with numerous clients. It was also easy to go back and amend time if I had forgotten to change the activity when starting a call etc. Easy to use on the iPhone app while on the road.
Cons:
Help desk and all interactions used to be via chat. That seems to have stopped - sadly! Recent changes have introduced a number of bugs that have made this month intolerable. I am really frustrated that a tool I had come to rely on so heavily and which has been a crucial part of my business management and billing process is failing.

Best employment tracking
Comments: The best benefit that I could get is transparency. I know how long I work and how much I get paid.
Pros:
a. Transparent - since employees know how much hours they have worked and they can check how much they are going to be paid. b. Ensured that everyone is working as they should - inactivity will lead to time doctor automatically turned off. c. There are screenshots taken which will help both supervisor and employer if there's any data discrepancy. d. In case something urgent happen (e.g device issue, forgot to turn on the TD), there's an option to manually input working hours along with reason - with manager approval
Cons:
a. Ability to edit inactivity time by our manager. 10 minutes is the basic inactivity time when you're asked "if you're still working" and I hope it can be edited by our manager. Because inactivity could be of many reasons and 10 minutes could be too short for some people/

Best Time Tracker for Freelancers
Comments: Overall satisfied as I am able to track the hours of work I've done within the day and the websites I visited most frequently.
Pros:
I love that it has the ability to notify quickly if I am going to a website that is not work-related. It keeps freelancers on track and focus with our tasks for us to be productive within the day. It makes sure that we work in a timely manner and it will stop the time if I become idle for more than 15 minutes. I also liked he feature where it can detect websites I visited most frequently, I believe that feature can be beneficial to both the client and the freelancers.
Cons:
I'm not exactly sure if it is a glitch but there are times when I am just on a videocall with my client and I'm not typing anything on the screen, it will still ask if I'm still working. I'm not sure if it can also detect that I'm using voice feature at those times. It will be better if it can though.

Time Doctor for WFH/Hybrid Set-up
Comments: Very Satisfied, as I have constant meetings with the account manager.
Pros:
Web & App Usage ScreenCast Timeline These features are our main dashboard for looking into the productivity | Activity of our employees. It helps us identify low productivity time if the employee is slacking off.
Cons:
We observed no auto-detection report in terms of any abnormalities in the keyboard and mouse activity. There are employees who took advantage of this wherein they just put a stopper or any heavy object in the arrow down key, this will be detected as keyboard movement.
