Hubstaff

Pros

Have liked it's payroll capability which has helped in all payments operation in my company

Cons

Had to integrate to other tools and requires technicality in intergation.

Pros

Manual time tracking really wasted our time and had almost guaranteed inaccurate data leaving to losses in revenue. Hubstaff brought the solution after a friend introduced me to it. I highly rank Hubstaff and recommend.

Cons

Hubstaff relieved us the frustration of manual time tracking. It is doing wonders in saving us time and efforts.

Pros

The platform is simple to use, desktop app works smoothly.

Cons

It really depends on the use the employer wants to give Hubstaff, In my experience some employers may use the platform as a way of micromanaging the employees. I didn't like the screenshots every 5 minutes, I found that to be excessive.

Pros

The tasks add on is great for project management and keeping staff on track

Cons

Auto clock in is unreliable due to mobile data reception in some buildings.
A lot of the features are not working and I am still waiting on support to rectify them, including my inbox, which makes it extremely difficult for me to track my own tasks and organise my day.
Notifications have been turned off several times in organisation and personal settings but everyone is still being slammed with emails.
The work orders are very clunky and there are no options to duplicate for one or two days (only) rather than weekly, or monthly.
The timesheets are a joke - manual tracking is inconsistent and manual entries after the shift for payroll purposes are clunky and time consuming, especially for long shifts where you need to record a meal break.

Pros

I like the time tracking ability and the screenshot taken to monitor employee activity.

Cons

I find it too expensive and with too many up sells for a well rounded product experience.

Pros

Time tracking, remote working,monitors website visited and applications used,payroll and payments,location tracking,multiplatform

Cons

Privacy concerns for some people,pricing

Pros

Makes time tracking easy, removes idle time and screenshots to make sure employees are working.

Cons

Could improve to auto remove all suspicious activity interfering in the background or simply stop the clock - if people are trying to cheat the system.

Pros

It is easy to access and have the ability to edit and take down your tasks.

Cons

What i least like about this tool is there are many options for you to select for a certain project. The tabs is a little bit confusing sometimes.

Pros

The time savings here is crazy. It helps me effortless track and monitor my team. I couldn't imagine my business without it.

Cons

Would be great to get more analytics of what staff are doing, but there are a lot in there already :)

Pros

Reliable time-tracking software with useful analytics.

Cons

Not much. It's exactly what my company was looking for at the time.

Pros

It helps me keep travk of time
It keeps me organized everyday
I am able to keep track of everything happening in my day-to-day work
Customer service is legit

Cons

Nothing is wrong Really with hubstaff genuinely the best

Pros

It is user friendly and easy to navigate

Cons

I do not like the advance billing as it ruins our accounting since we have to do adjustments for the next period.

Pros

It is very accurate about all the information provided, and very detailed. You can have control over all your employees.

Cons

I don't have any complain about it. Maybe how are the teams distributed can be more friendly to use.

Pros

First, I like the workforce management features.
Hubstaff ensures easy management of staff and employee engagement.

Cons

Using Hubstaff has been straightforward and no serious flaws.

Pros

I love using Hubstaff for our remote employees. It gives me access to see screenshots of what they are working on, assign tasks, job cost their time, and easily see what I need to pay each employee.

Cons

The only thing I do not like about Hubstaff is the desktop version needs to be downloaded to utilize the full services that hubstaff offers. I have to explain this to new employees, and some do not want to download the application.

Pros

Integrations with payment systems , Paypal and Wise

Cons

It was confusing to get setup when we first started

Pros

After finishing the time, and closing the app, it shows an error that the time does not saved and all the time that I was working is just wasted!!!!

Cons

My employer defined this software to be used in remote jobs and because this I was supposed to use it.

Pros

It is helping to track work hours. The recent feature to calculate idle time is good.

Cons

I am not a developer and the Activity % never reaches 100% though I am continuously working.

Pros

The integration to CLickUp that used to work.

Cons

No support or help. In order for it to work and manage my workers, it needs to be much better

Pros

The platform’s intuitive design makes it easy to navigate and manage tasks, projects, and time entries.

Cons

The reporting and analytics features might not meet all users' needs, especially if they require more advanced or customizable reporting options.

Pros

Established software. 100% reliable and self-explanatory.

Cons

Nothing to complain, but considering the multitude of functionalities and that I only use time tracking, the price should be lower. Nevertheless, the competitors are neither cheaper.

Alternatives Considered

Pros

The analytics show everything you'd want to see in terms of productivity and efficiency

Cons

I wish there was more customization to scheduling

Pros

its very straight forward and user friendly and allows me to free up time when invoicing and its much more straight forward then most systems

Cons

nothing I think this is an excellent system

Pros

Hubstaff's desktop app is very user friendly and makes switching between projects easy. Admins can add or remove projects from user's list easily. The app does take screenshots of the user's screen which can be useful in certain cases. User's can be added to another user's "team" so that managers can view team member times and activities in a daily email summary or by logging into the online account without being a Hubstaff admin.

Cons

Hubstaff uses a lot of computer memory, especially the screenshot feature. Several users have reported the performance of their computer is affected. There is a mobile app but I have found it only works intermittently, most times I receive an error saying the feature is not available.

Pros

It is easy to use for both staff and administrators. Also gives a clear view of what work is being done.

Cons

The interface is a little clunky but still adequate

Pros

Hubstaff made clocking in super easy with its automatic time tracking, so I didn’t have to worry about forgetting to log my hours. The interface is simple and lets me see exactly where my time is going each day. It also tracks breaks, which helps with transparency and staying organized. The mobile app was convenient for clocking in when I wasn’t at my desk.

Cons

The app can feel a bit restrictive, especially when you have to log in manually if something goes wrong with the automatic tracking. If you accidentally close the app or forget to start it, it’s hard to go back and adjust your hours without jumping through hoops. It also feels like it tracks too much, down to your every move on the computer, which feels invasive at times.

Pros

This program gives me a feeling of real-time optimization. By having a clear vision of how my time is being used, I can identify areas in which they could be more efficient and make adjustments to optimize workflow in each task, this gives me a feeling of real-time optimization. I like it mainly because I don't have much time, on the other hand the prices were comfortable and sometimes you could accumulate invoices for payment the next month without penalties.

Cons

Productivity monitoring is very limited, I think it did not allow data to be delivered to senior managers, the way to give them real-time access to the performance of our tasks was very problematic.

Pros

As a manager of a companymanaging multiple projects and clients, the HubStaff time tracking software has proven to be an absolute game-changer for my business. Its seamless integration, user-friendly interface, and robust features have made tracking time for billing purposes a breeze, while its detailed reports have empowered me to make more informed business decisions

Cons

As a devoted user of HubStaff, I've found the platform to be an invaluable asset in streamlining my time tracking and billing processes. However, I believe there's a significant opportunity for improvement by incorporating features that align with Israeli finance laws.

Israel has unique regulatory requirements, and integrating these into HubStaff would undoubtedly elevate the platform's appeal for users in this region.

Pros

I liked the fact that it actually gives the option to cap the worked hours and all the reminders of how many hours you have left to work, which is not something I had with previous time tracking systems.

Cons

To be fair, the software slowed my computer down significantly, and while trying to use it in my iOS systems it would randomly stop tracking time or taking screenshots.

Pros

It is a useful time tracking tool, with easy integration with other tools or software like Google Chrome. It is very easy to use at daily work for teams and organizations. It has a user-friendly interface, making it easy for employees and management to track time and progress. Customer support is also good.

Cons

Pricing is a bit costly as compared to its competitors. Otherwise, it is a good software.

Pros

Hubstaff is an easy to use platform that seemlessly and easily tracks time for timesheets/payroll.

Cons

Hubstaff is an external clocking program so the employee will need to remember to clock into hubstaff before working on a separate platform...hubstaff isnt automaticly engaged when an employee starts working. It is reliant on their memory to clock in hubstaff before accessing any other work program as opposed to auto clocking when accessing work programs automatically.

Pros

it was easy to understand and very effecient

Cons

did not communicate well with other programs

Pros

It is simple to use to track straight time when one does not track time by project.

Cons

It is complicated and difficult to use to track time by project. Project time totals should display in real time in the app for each project. Also, there should be no delay in these totals appearing and updating on the web project tracking page. This should not take a batch update to display. In addition, it should be easy to adjust project time if needed; I have received no specific guidance on this and have no idea how to do it.

Pros

What attracts me most about the product in question is the remote group collaboration, which supports conversation and coordination among members. It facilitates work distribution, progress control and document sharing. There are many types of reports that expose employee capacity, program costs and customer billing. These documents can be customized and exported, which supports personnel management and other tasks. Its use in mobile allows workers to track time, GPS tracking and position at the time they work remotely, this can be beneficial for employees in the sector.

Cons

The degree of intrusion and monitoring associated with functions such as screenshots and constant control of the distribution between work and personal life can generate doubts, and the price can be a major drawback for micro-sized companies, due to the fact that it is based on a subscription.

Pros

As an employee of the company, I can say it helps in maintaining record of my colleague and co worker

Cons

Sometimes it lags overall a good experience

Pros

Keeps me engaged with my team and allows me to understand what they are doing.

Cons

probably the exporting of time but i guess it's just me not knowing how to use it fully.

Reasons for Switching to Hubstaff

Pros

.

Cons

I used to like husbtaff until i've got a problem of not getting it work and tried to sort this with customer service but they are very poort in attending yoiur enquiries, and they don't have a voice support. Imagine having technology but no one can walk you through to fix the issue.

Pros

Hubstaff is simple and easy to use, you can track your working hours in every project you work with. There's an extension for Chrome to automate even more your records

Cons

Sometimes when you use Hubstaff to record your time with a meeting it gets slow

Pros

It does track time in an accurate way and even those 15 mins before you log out automatically are thinked for you to go and take a piss or something. it is really well thinked.

Cons

i haven't found anything i dont like about it

Pros

The application aims to simplify task management and productivity for users. Its completed features include intuitive task creation, seamless integration with calendars, and a user-friendly interface that ensures effortless navigation.

Cons

It was really complete , nothing to improve until now

Pros

That i didnt feel the time tracking, it tracks time so well and smooth, we all dont feel it, dont have to think about it. it does the job!
it also looks great, nice friendly layout.

Cons

The billing department and the billing experience!
As i was checking out the subscription (i am on a monthly subscription), and want to check how much would a yearly billing save me.
i moved a knob from monthly to yearly and my credit card was charged!
no warning, no confirmation, no thank you and no confirmation (on the web or the email)
I found out by chance, a few hours later that my CC was charged for a year.
Also, i was charged for a year after i just paid a week before.
i had to write the billing support 3 times and they acted as if they didnt understand what is the big deal.
which is a frustrating thing to do to a client.
780 bucks IS a big deal for me.
also their replies were vague, late,
and it took 3 emails before i was finally given the link to cancel this transaction.
the app is amazing, the billing interface and support is terrible.

Pros

Everything is just one-click away. And everything is calculated accordingly.

Cons

No 15-minute break? I'm unsure if this is between the company and the user, but I hope, HubStaff could offer that.

Pros

The activity rate and screenshot, it will help the team leader to monitor the activity of their team member.

Cons

Sometimes the update has a bug, if I update the hubstaff then it not always succeed sometimes it will popup and shows error, if the update is not complete the hubstaff will stop automatically and my work time will not be included

Pros

It was very simple to set up and use, even for people who are not familiar with time tracking software. I also found the reporting features to be very helpful. I was able to easily track my team's progress and see where we could improve.

Cons

I found Hubstaff's user interface to be a bit clunky and difficult to navigate at first. It took me some time to get used to all of the features and find the settings that I needed.
