When I started to identify a time reporting software for our medium size enterprise (~30 people distributed all over United States and Canada) in the software service industry for onsite and remote services, I had several programs in my mind. In my specification I had the following things to be covered

• Customer related time reporting
• Project related time reporting
• Time approval
• Various hierarchies in user and access levels
• Open data interface for potential interfaces to other software packages (such as various payroll software packages for Canada and US, ERP for invoicing)
• Time budget for hourly packages
• Time reporting to customers with time budget
• The data is mine and I always want to have access to it
• I would like to create plugins if I need to add features that do not yet exist

I continued my search but always came back to Kevin Papst’s time reporting software Kimai. So I installed it on a shared host. I continued to set up a few users and imported a few customers, projects and finally understood how activities are to be set up (global and local). This is a feature that surprised me even more. Well implemented! I finally rolled it out to a small group and then the entire team. The time reporting is now fully implemented within 2 months from first idea to fully operational.

Then the demands grow with the possibilities: I purchased a few plugins and these were installed as simple as the main software. Then, when I had even more requests that I didn’t find an answer by plugins, I reached out to the developer Kevin asking for help with changing a report and he simply answered to consider this for the entire software, not just a module for me. It may be within some of the next releases.

In summary, Kimai is a flexible time reporting package with active code, modern, responsive and fast user interface and a fast responding support.

Thanks, Kevin, for this nice software package!

the best time tracking tool i used :) (and still do)

We have been using Kimai in our electrical company for the past two years, and we are currently transitioning to a fully paperless process with Kimai only for managing timesheets. Our employees adapted quickly, as we developed a customized workflow tailored to our business needs. Thanks to Kimai, we’ve reduced the time spent processing timesheets for our 20 employees, as well as managing project reports (construction reports, work reports, daily customer reports), from around 10 hours per week to just 2 hours. We also underwent a payroll tax audit without any issues; the only requirement is the employee’s signature on the timesheet. The developer of Kimai is also very receptive to useful feature suggestions, which makes me confident that even more great improvements are on the way.

Great multi user tool to keep track of the time spend on projects! We use it permanently…

Kimai is a super web platform for keeping tracks of our daily work, the interface is clean and very useful, just easy, couple clicks and data, and that is done. we have used since 5 years ago, and the reports are easy to run. only 1 time i have to support a ticket, because we forgot the password!. thanks for all the work here!
