Product Description:

You shouldn't have to think about how to track your time. You should just do it. Start. Stop. No hassle. OfficeTime feels intuitive because it adapts to your style, not the other way around.

Behind OfficeTime's elegant and deceptively simple interface lies the power to keep track of exactly what you and your team do each day:

  • Rich, flexible real-time reports and pie graphs at the touch of a button.
  • Easily time and track multiple projects simultaneously.
  • Track the kinds of work you do and for whom.
  • Keep expenses and detailed notes.
  • Advanced rounding for finicky people.
  • Customisable template-driven invoicing.
  • Cross-Employee reporting by project, date and category from multiple workstations.
  • Start, stop and pause projects from within any application.
  • iCal synchronization & Address Book integration.
  • Mac OS X "Leopard" and Intel Mac (Universal Binary) compatible.
  • And of course all the shortcuts and little refinements that make a program a joy to use.

What's new in this version:

OfficeTime version 1.31 offers over 22 new improvements and bug fixes and is a free upgrade.

New Features

  • Current project and duration displayed in menu bar. OfficeTime's global menu to start and stop projects from within any app just got better. Now you can see the current project and timer at a glance in the menu bar. See the preferences for menu bar customization options.
  • Inline notes editing! Editing notes now works the same as any other editing in OfficeTime. Just select the row and click on the notes to edit. ( Or double-click an unselected row.)
  • New [rate] placeholder in invoices. Now use the [rate] placeholder in the details section of any invoice to show the rate per hour for each session.

Improvements

  • You can now choose where to save each invoice.
  • Various session and subtotal color improvements.
  • Subtle sound effect cues when creating a new session and expense.
  • Press TAB to move directly from editing time to editing notes on any session.
  • (Leopard) Can now copy from Apple's address book within the invoice screen.
  • The forward delete key can now be used when editing and will not try to delete the current session.
  • Exporting a report is now twice as fast.
  • Reports exported to Excel now format the money column in a way Excel can do calculations on.
  • Now displays a warning when opening a read-only file.

Bug Fixes

  • (Leopard) The current project time is now displayed again in the dock.
  • Fix for occasional crash while editing a session.
  • Fixes a problem some users with unusual international settings had selecting the hour or time. The yellow highlight is now always accurate.
  • Fixes a problem with some automatic rounding where stopping and resuming a session repeatedly can lead to a negative or inaccurate time.
  • Reports exported to Excel will now always open in Excel, and not a text editor, when requested.
  • Entering a rate with a currency symbol in place is now properly recognized in the edit category screen.
  • Fixes problems with pasted multi-line project and category names in OfficeTime and multi-line calendar names in iCal.
  • Fixed a problem with generating invoices based on only the selected sessions.
  • Huge invoice numbers no longer display in scientific notation.
  • Fix is a rare problem of not selecting AM/PM when tabbing in a report.

OfficeTime ReviewOfficeTime: Powerful and Extremely Simple - Version: 1.3.3, 12/9/2008 02:02PM PST

After using iBiz, Studiometry, Billings, Quicken and MYOB - OfficeTime is a breath of fresh air. The thing I like most is how simple it is to start tracking your time, yet how powerful it is at the same time. I would like to see more invoice/payment tracking (which is said to be in the works), but even as is, this is my favorite time tracking software. I use it to track all of my time, work and personal and the reports give me a great overview of where I spend my hours.

I can't say enough great things about this software, and the support/response I have received from the developer is excellent. Do yourself a favor and try this software - you will be hooked.

OfficeTime ReviewOfficeTime is just what I needed for time tracking - Version: 1.3.3, 10/30/2008 04:35PM PST

After switching from Windows to Mac, I hunted fruitlessly for a decent time-tracking application until I finally found OfficeTime. I searched everywhere and tested a number of competing products, but was invariably disappointed. Then I finally ran across OfficeTime and now I'm a very happy user.

As an independent software developer, I need to be able to easily and reliably run a time-tracking clock when working on client projects, as well as tracking activity for my business and professional work so I know where my time goes. It needs to be easy to turn on and off, and I need to be able to view, edit, categoriize, and organize time records to review my work estimates and report billable hours.

OfficeTime is exactly what I needed: nice UI, easy to use, lets me edit and organize work records. Not too complicated, doesn't try to be what it's not. I don't want a financial or accounting app, I want a time logging and reporting app. OfficeTime works great!

I've been using OfficeTime for a few months now and cannot recommend it highly enough....

I'm a developer and use the software EVERY day and truly couldn't live without it! Before OfficeTime, I would track my time in excel, usually forgetting to record when I started or finished a project, and basically just making guesses. Now, OfficeTime makes it easy to just click the timer button once when I start a project, and again when I'm done. I don't have to enter a date and time. I don't have to think about it at all, and I always know I my billing is accurate.

Recently my windows vista laptop locked up (the problem had nothing to do with OfficeTime). I shut off my laptop (a hard-reboot), started it back up, opened up OfficeTime and was pleasantly surprised that OfficeTime was aware that it had been in-elegantly shut down, and offered to send a bug-report to technical support. [now that's good customer service!]

The program started back up without any problems, and my last session
was ended right where I left off.

The other feature I just love, is when I walk away from my laptop for any length of time, OfficeTime knows the computer has been idle and offers to deduct the minutes while I was "away" or keep them... this is a lifesaver! It allows me to be sure I don't bill customers for non-productive time.

HIGHLY recommended... Best software purchase I've made in years.... Lots of features for the cost.
