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.

I have been using Kimai cloud for more than 1 year, and I am very satisfied about it ! It became easier for me to send monthly reports to my clients and to track my time spent on the projects I’m working on. Thank you very much !

As a freelancer, time keeping is really important. Kimai makes it a breeze doing so. Thanks to the API I can automatically start and stop timings when arriving/leaving my customers' premises. And best of all, it’s from Europe! :-) Thanks for making such a nice software !

I’ve always preferred self-hosting services, but when I discovered Kimai, I saw the value in their free cloud plan. Wanting to support the developers (being a developer myself), I upgraded to the paid version, and it’s been worth every penny.

Recently, I made a mistake that almost wiped out all my data. Despite my plan not officially including support, Kimai’s team was there for me. They responded quickly and had my issue resolved within half an hour, saving me from a potential disaster.

As a freelancer, Kimai has become an essential tool for managing clients, projects, and tasks. It lets me track time accurately and create professional invoices effortlessly. For anyone looking to stay organized and efficient, I highly recommend Kimai.
