Time tracking for the academic sector

Focus on reporting, not complicated administrative workflows

Managing time in higher education brings unique challenges, including lecture and class scheduling, research project tracking, student and faculty time allocation, and time consuming administrative tasks.

Effective time tracking solutions can help streamline these processes, allowing educators and researchers to focus on their core responsibilities.

Features for institution-wide time management

Our time tracking solution has been refined through collaboration with multiple universities. Real user feedback drives our development, ensuring features that truly serve academic needs.

Just to name a few of the academic institutes using Kimai: Universität Hamburg, Universität Bonn, Universität Wien, Universität Stuttgart, Universität Frankfurt, University of Fribourg, TU Dresden and the University of Moscow.

What our customers say

At Kimai, we've designed our time tracking platform to meet the needs of agencies, teams, and freelancers. Our intuitive interface and powerful features help agencies like yours work smarter and more profitably. You can now “listen” to the reviews of the real users.

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.

Very useful and functional Timetracking Software for multi users and projects (it is OpenSource, but development is maintained in GitHub now). Many features and beautiful design with the use of up-to-date OpenSource software libraries. I use it since two years and it became better and better. Even a mobile view for smart phones etc. is in development and maybe Apps for Android and iOS will come soon.

The platform is very easy to use, has great access for our analytics with a comprehensive API and the development team are incredibly responsive and helpful. We looked at and tried an awful lot of timesheet software, and Kimai is head and shoulders above the competition.
