Time Tracking For Software Developers

Kimai has been a fantastic discovery. I reviewed several other time trackers, and frankly, none of them compared. Kimai just felt better right away. It’s easy to set up and use, with a clean design and just the right balance between features and simplicity, and the self-hosting option is a huge plus.

Highly recommended and big thumbs up from me!

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.

We have been using Kimai for our time management for a short time and are very satisfied. A nice design and easy operation were important to us, but the biggest plus point is the support: The team responds quickly and addresses all wishes and concerns, even if a special solution is needed. Therefore, we absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for a time tracking solution 👍

We love Kimai! It’s a first class time tracking tool with so many features, that we hardly can’t make use of. And their support is excellent too, even on bank holidays. Can’t recommend it enough.

We have been using KIMAI for many years, previously self-hosted at an internet provider, and for some time now in the cloud. The data model fits our business field perfectly, in which we bill certain projects based on effort and others at a fixed price (budgeted). Both billing models are supported by KIMAI. For budgeted projects, we keep track of the respective consumption of time and costs in relation to the budget (burndown). For time-and-materials projects, we export all billable hours along with the stored hourly rates monthly or quarterly as a basis for the invoices, which we create with another invoicing/accounting software.

In addition to what I consider a very practical data model and the logical structure, the cloud solution is also very well designed in terms of look and feel, modern and intuitive to use. I find everything where I expect it to be. Numerous small features, such as hiding columns or the filter options, make work easier. In addition, a great deal is configurable, so I am not forced to adapt my processes to KIMAI; instead, I can adapt KIMAI to my needs.

Support responds very quickly. I have also been able to submit several suggestions that were actually implemented promptly. I have not yet experienced such implementation strength with any other provider of cloud solutions.

Out of conviction and free of charge, I have shown KIMAI to befriended business partners from completely different industries, recommended it to them, and supported them in setting it up.

From my point of view, an absolute recommendation, very professional and well thought out. You can tell from the software its maturity and from the manufacturer the experience in this field.
