Keep timr, or make your own?
Keep it
The plain part of timr you could make: time tracking, time off and reports. What surrounds it you could not. The 5 things listed below take a company, not a weekend.
It costs $96.53 a year.
What you could make
- Time tracking, time off and reports: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- Clocking in from a phone, checked against where and when.
- A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page.
- It is priced for each person, which means accounts and billing for a team.
- It plugs into other products, Personio and Slack among them, and has an API.
- What a company asks for before it lets staff use something: roles and permissions.
What this rests on. timr’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
