Reviews of Hubstaff
Excellent Product
Comments: In the rare instances where I've needed assistance, HubStaff's customer support has been responsive and helpful. Their team is dedicated to resolving issues promptly, ensuring that I can get back to work without any disruptions.
Pros:
As a manager of a companymanaging multiple projects and clients, the HubStaff time tracking software has proven to be an absolute game-changer for my business. Its seamless integration, user-friendly interface, and robust features have made tracking time for billing purposes a breeze, while its detailed reports have empowered me to make more informed business decisions
Cons:
As a devoted user of HubStaff, I've found the platform to be an invaluable asset in streamlining my time tracking and billing processes. However, I believe there's a significant opportunity for improvement by incorporating features that align with Israeli finance laws. Israel has unique regulatory requirements, and integrating these into HubStaff would undoubtedly elevate the platform's appeal for users in this region.
A good cheap tracking for development users on a budget
Comments:
It is a program initially for engineers with a small budget or professionals with a low budget who want to take into account the time they spend on each work task, this is essential to be able to move forward.
It is limited so that executive staff can see the real performance of the employees below, it is closed in that sense and they do not like it.
I liked it in many functions and I would recommend it but I would make clear the problems of aspects that I found.
Pros:
This program gives me a feeling of real-time optimization. By having a clear vision of how my time is being used, I can identify areas in which they could be more efficient and make adjustments to optimize workflow in each task, this gives me a feeling of real-time optimization. I like it mainly because I don't have much time, on the other hand the prices were comfortable and sometimes you could accumulate invoices for payment the next month without penalties.
Cons:
Productivity monitoring is very limited, I think it did not allow data to be delivered to senior managers, the way to give them real-time access to the performance of our tasks was very problematic.
Great Time Tracking Tool
Comments: is a fantastic tool for time tracking, payroll, and productivity monitoring.
Pros:
Accurate Time Tracking and project + task management integration
Cons:
Basic reporting features only and limited offline functions
Neutral experience
Comments: I would describe it as a neutral experience. This software has as many pros as it has cons in my opinion, but regardless, most of the times it does the job, plus is has some tools that are helpful to keep track of personal tasks.
Pros:
I liked the fact that it actually gives the option to cap the worked hours and all the reminders of how many hours you have left to work, which is not something I had with previous time tracking systems.
Cons:
To be fair, the software slowed my computer down significantly, and while trying to use it in my iOS systems it would randomly stop tracking time or taking screenshots.
Alternatives Considered:
Recommended
Comments: pretty good i like the software it's quite robust helps me stay on top of my remote workers.
Pros:
Keeps me engaged with my team and allows me to understand what they are doing.
Cons:
probably the exporting of time but i guess it's just me not knowing how to use it fully.
Alternatives Considered:
Huge money saver
Comments: I have been using Hubstaff since the start of the pandemic. It has “helped” with more accurate employee time keeping. Has definitely paid for its self multiple times over
Pros:
Multiple formats for tracking employees time
Cons:
When it doesn’t log in an employee at house
Alternatives Considered:
Works fine, but not the best option on the market
Comments: Our employees did not find it user-friendly to begin working on different tasks with the clock running, and would often forget to switch tasks -- which resulted in an inaccurate picture of how they were spending their shifts.
Pros:
Hubstaff worked well for managing employee clock-in and clock-out, providing reports on how each team member was doing.
Cons:
Our employees would often forget to clock back in after breaks. We ultimately switched away from Hubstaff because we found a solution that worked better for our team.
Hubstaff changed my business!
Comments: Love it!! Easy to use! Simplified my staffing agency
Pros:
The dashboard gives you a picture of how the business is doing. Love it!
Cons:
Financial features are limited would love QB integration
Hubstaff Review
Comments: My overall experience with Hubstaff is good.
Pros:
Time tracking is seamless in Hubstaff. It is impressive.
Cons:
There is no permission for insights, which would have been helpful.
Great product, API needs work.
Comments: Overall it does what I need it it to do. It gets out of the way, which I love.
Pros:
Easy to use. Clean UI. Has the basic functionality I need.
Cons:
The API is lousy. No Python SDK or Python examples. I tried using it, and couldn't get it to work.
Great, easy to use time clocking/punching software!
Comments: Hubstaff has been simple and easy to set up and easy to use.
Pros:
Hubstaff is an easy to use platform that seemlessly and easily tracks time for timesheets/payroll.
Cons:
Hubstaff is an external clocking program so the employee will need to remember to clock into hubstaff before working on a separate platform...hubstaff isnt automaticly engaged when an employee starts working. It is reliant on their memory to clock in hubstaff before accessing any other work program as opposed to auto clocking when accessing work programs automatically.

Effective tool to manage the Productivity of Remote Teams

Pros:

slightly expensive when having more team members watchers and reviewers most probably need to have accounts which may increase the costs
Worst Customer Service, and Not Working for online time tracking

Pros:
.
Cons:
I used to like husbtaff until i've got a problem of not getting it work and tried to sort this with customer service but they are very poort in attending yoiur enquiries, and they don't have a voice support. Imagine having technology but no one can walk you through to fix the issue.

Excellent App

Pros:
The reminders they send everyday about your productivity, your worked hours and in case you dont log in they also send you an email.

Sometimes we are in meetings and we are not using the computer and if we dont move the mouse the hubstaff will change you to Idle and that is not fair because we are in front of the computer.
Managing teams

Effective Time Tracking with Room for Improvement
Pros:
What I liked most about Hubstaff is its easy time tracking and productivity monitoring. It integrates well with tools like Asana and Trello. The detailed reports help in optimizing workflows and tracking team performance.
Cons:
What I liked least about Hubstaff is the occasional lag in the app, especially during heavy usage. The interface can feel overwhelming at times with too many features.
Task Tracking
Comments: I can use this a million times over any other software when it comes to time management and time tracking for projects!!
Pros:
I absolutely love Hubstaff for managing time on projects. Just to ensure we finish on time or are heading in the right direction with time management. I also love that is is compatible with Windows 8 & higher!!
Cons:
Sometimes I have issues with invoices but it has only happened 3-4 times in the 3 years i've been using this software.
Disgraceful change of pricing
Comments: Hubstaff is a greedy company not respecting yearly plans. Invoicing is shady, you keep on being charged without explanation.
Pros:
Hubstaff is a good product, but messy. Not precise enough with time tracking. Misleading.
Cons:
Too many features with a poor User Interface. Not intuitive. Too expensive.
