My Web 2.0 Tool Smackdown is on actiTIME, a browser-based
time, project, and productivity tracker. The tracker is provided at no cost for
small teams from 1 to 3 individuals and slowly increases at a stable monthly
price depending upon how many users are included. There is an option for
unlimited users at a rate of $1250 per month.
This app surprised me as it is accessible by phone app and
browser. No software is needed to be installed on a desktop. In addition, the
application has a wide variety of uses from tracking basic HR information such
as time, PTO, sick time, and screen time in addition to general project and
time tracking. There are options to collaborate within the application for
teams to work together with ease. I was amazed by the number of security protections
within the interface which allow the owner to restrict what users can see, set password
limits, wipe passwords, and lockout individuals.
The time-track interface is similar to Google Calendar and
Microsoft Outlook. The time between projects can be easily adjusted with a
click and drag. The interface is incredibly user-friendly, with the ability to
add a start time by clicking the highlighted box that pops up directly on the
calendar. I find the additional interfaces, tasks, reports, and users equally
as easy to use. The actiTIME website has multitudes of resources regarding
their product, from brief articles to videos. There’s also an offer to schedule
a time with customer support to learn how to use the product in full!
I find this product immensely useful, especially if I ever
return to active commission work.
