What users say about Kimai

We are absolutely convinced by the solution. Above all, open source and self-hosting – that's great! It runs very stably for us on an Ubuntu server in Hyper-V. The support is first-rate, competent, fast and friendly. My absolute recommendation.

We recently made the switch from Toggl to a self-hosted Kimai. As a TYPO3 agency, open source, data sovereignty, and full control over the software were essential to us. We wanted to decide ourselves when to enable specific features and have the freedom to implement our own customizations. The migration of data from Toggl to Kimai was smooth, and our team quickly adapted to the interface, which resembles Toggl but offers more advanced options—especially for reporting and analytics.

Straight-forward, open-source, and no-client-required means it works cross-platform out of box? Where do I sign up!

We use Kimai as a self-hosted instance to manage working times, vacation and illness-days for ~40 employees. We love open source software and the passion Kevin Papst puts into that tool is a real gamechanger for us. There are a lot of features and settings to adjust, but it’s not too complicated to maintain the whole system. Hopefully Kimai will be our mate for the next years to support our own story as a company, that is developing impactful and open source software!

Thanks for sharing this wonderful Open Source Project with us. I use and love it.

Kimai has worked perfectly for CodeWeavers. We spent a great deal of energy comparing timesheet solutions, from proprietary to open source. None of the proprietary solutions had the functionality and simplicity of Kimai. Because it’s open source, we can confidently rely on it for years and years to come. Finally, we have hired Kevin to help us customize Kimai for our needs. His work has been fantastic. As a result, we have a professional solution, custom tailored to our needs, for far less than we were prepared to spend on one of the proprietary solutions.

Kimai is my favorite software for tracking time spent on projects I have discovered. I have tried lots of different other solutions, i.e. Sugar CRM, but Kimai’s sweet and neat Web 2.0 usability beats them all. It’s user interface is an inspiring example for every Web developer out there.

If you are not tracking time yet, because it seems so complicated, give Kimai a try. You will love it!

And, best of all, it is open source, and free as in free beer. Enjoy :-)

Kimai has been with my company since the very beginning. As a service provider, it is important for us and our customers that we can bill for projects down to the minute. Our customers appreciate the clear overview of the work performed (duration, activity, etc.). We appreciate no Excel, everything in one place, faster and easier support, open source, and many other features.
