Worth knowing
My Hours
- The Free plan stops at 5 active users and has no API access, attendance report or bulk editing.
- Budgets, rates per user or task, invoicing, timesheet approvals and Jira two-way sync all need Pro.
- The desktop app is a progressive web app installed from Chrome, Edge or Safari, and it needs an internet connection.
- There are no screenshot, GPS or activity monitoring features; the vendor says it will not add them.
timeBuzzer
- The pricing page lists a single paid plan and does not describe the free starter version an account falls back to.
- Every active member needs a paid seat whatever their role, and the vendor does not refund software subscriptions.
- The Buzzer is sold separately at $59 per device plus shipping; the apps work without it.
- Timers run in the desktop and mobile apps; the web console is for managing, analyzing and reporting on time.
Key features
My Hours
- Timer or timesheet entry
- Start a stopwatch or fill in a daily or weekly timesheet. Each log can carry a description, attachments and expenses, and can be copied or restarted.
- Clients, projects and tasks
- Every plan allows unlimited projects, tasks and clients, with task templates and projects assigned to users. Assigning tasks to users needs Pro.
- Billable rates and budgets
- The Free and Basic plans set one billable rate per project. Pro adds rates per user or task, labor costs, profit and loss, and hour or cost budgets with email alerts.
- Reports
- Dashboard, detailed and timesheet reports can be filtered, downloaded as PDF and emailed. Scheduled reports, Excel exports and your own logo on PDFs need Pro.
- Timesheet approvals
- On Pro, managers approve or reject submitted timesheets, logs lock automatically after each period, and an audit log keeps 90 days of changes.
- Invoicing and integrations
- Pro creates invoices from billable time. Integrations import projects from Asana, Basecamp, monday.com and ClickUp, and pass invoices to QuickBooks or Xero.
timeBuzzer
- Desktop and mobile timers
- Apps for Mac, Windows, Linux, iOS and Android run a real-time timer, accept manual entries and notes, and keep working offline, syncing when a connection returns.
- Hardware Buzzer
- A 125-gram USB-C device with a touch sensor and multi-color LED. Touching it opens the desktop app, rotating scrolls through activities and pressing starts or stops the timer.
- Custom layers
- The structure time is tracked against is configurable, so customers, projects and tasks can be renamed or rearranged to fit an industry or workflow, with no limit on entries.
- Web console and analytics
- A browser dashboard shows where time went, lists every entry with search and filters, and lets entries be edited and marked as billed.
- Reports and exports
- Time entries turn into PDF reports that can carry your own logo, and raw data exports to XLSX or CSV for invoicing and further processing.
- Team roles and integrations
- Admin, manager and user roles control access, and users see only their own time. Invoicing tools such as sevdesk and bexio connect directly, and Zapier, Make and an open API cover the rest.
