Caato: Time Tracker & Work Log App Reviews

I don’t know what the problem is with the person that apparently wants everything free without any strings attached (too bad for him I guess lol), but I can say this app is NO backup app, it’s the main one, and if he’s using this one as he says as a “backup” to 2 other apps, and he’s as frustrated as he says he is, he would just stop using this one, so apparently this one is pretty good. I’ve checked out almost a dozen different timer apps for Mac, and so far this one has the most features and a reasonable price as well. It does exactly what it says it will do and it does it well. I work at home and need to bill clients for time on spent on website projects, and this app works great for that. … Having said all that I’d love to see one thing for sure that Mr. “I use this as a backup” suggested as well as one of my own: - Please give us the ability to input the time to start/end when editing a timer instead of having to calculate the minutes/hours to get the right time. - Please also give us the total minutes in the window of the timer we are editing as there is no way to identify which one we’re editing, to be sure we’re editing the correct one, other than looking at the timers which can be boggling at times. These really are the only Cons I’ve found in this app, and that’s pretty minimal and definitely they do not hinder the use of the app in any way, just could be more convenient for the user. Kudos to the developers!

Love this app. Easy to log in and out. Exports to spreadsheet. Can divide tasks for better reporting. Couldn’t be happier with it.

I use this app to help keep track of my freelancing hours. It’s easy to use and effective. Does exactly what it’s supposed to without any issues. Great app!

Good app, easy to use and offering many options to show calculated work time. Could be nice, when having several computers to share the folder from one to another.

Very simple and useful application. It can show you either the total time spent on each tasks or the daily one, etc. You can also refactor the spent time if you forgot to start the chrono. Finally, you can extract data. To be fully usefull, I still have to integrate it with Alfred so that I can start the chrono directly through a keystroke.

if you just have to track a few projects and looking for an easy to use program you should download this one ;)

I’ve been using Caato Time Tracker (currently v.1.0.3) for a few months now. It’s good barebones time tracker for projects. I would really appreciate if they added an idle monitoring function to pause time tracking if it senses no activity for X period of time. Additionally, as a freelancer, being able to export time sheets or reset/archive time sheets by month (or any user programmed period of time) would be great for helping to sort my billings for recurring clients. A cloud version where I could share my time with clients or colleagues or to monitor staff would be a welcome addition too. Hopefully they keep upgrading the functionality of the app and it continues to be increasingly useful to me and to others.

I love this app. Very clean interface, and it is simple and easy to track the time spent on projects. Whenever you pause and start the timer on your project, the breakdown of time for each session is recorded and you can see how many times you stopped working as well as for how long you worked for each chunk of time.

In This Day & Age-Anyone who would bother should be aple to itemize, name, rename, and list-off multiple topic projects and we usually DO progresively lead to buying full version when it has quite an offical present for a basic app.

I like that I can categorize jobs into sections or types. I like that I can track more than one job at once. I am a freelance graphic and web designer, and I use it to track the time I spend on each freelance job, as well to keep track of my total hours worked, and how much time I spend on different types of jobs or on administration, and I can do that all at the same time if I want to.

It does what it claims it will do but lacks the bells and whistles in the areas of reporting and stats. Yes you can export to Excel and manipulate as you wish but it would be nice if some reports were included within the program. As well, an option to have it pause when your computer has not been used for a certain time, or is sleeping or even turned off would be nice. If you close down for the day and come back in the morning your last tracked task will still be running. All said, it’s a good little program

Works perfect for day-to-day use. The per-project timing and easy pause/start button on the timers make this the perfect tool. Highly recommend to anyone.

Great for billing hours, couldn’t survive without it.

this works for what I need free, simple & easy to use

I love this app because it allows me to keep track of multiple clients and projects at once. It also helps me balance my workday among various projects. Five stars.

I paid the ridiculous price to upgrade to PRO, had my CC charged and still can’t get the upgraded version. I’ve tried restoring purchases and even contacted the devleoper twice by email. No luck. What a waste of money.

In my opinion it is useful, clean design application. You can set your projects and measure time in all of them separately. I recommend this product :)

You can export your times to Excell file, very helpful.

Very useful in my job. Simple configuration, easy time reporting.

Very simple, basic and intuitive tracker with export to xlsx or csv and immediate mailing. It can range the time period if you wish. Thank you and good job!
