Track time per client, project and task, control budgets and invoice from the same entries. > > Verdict: Rated **4.8/5** by 5 users. Top-rated for **Customer Support**. ----- ## Overview ### Key benefits of time cockpit Record once, use three times: every time entry is booked per client, project and task and feeds the employee's hour account, the project budget and the invoice. Nothing has to be entered twice. No billable hour gets lost: the graphical calendar shows your Office 365 appointments next to your bookings, and the Activity Tracker for Windows records what you worked on and suggests entries. Budgets under control while the project is running: budgets per project or task are continuously compared with booked hours and costs. Project managers see plan vs. actual, remaining budget and billability before a project runs over, not after. Invoices straight from the time entries: hourly rates per client, project or task, billable and non-billable hours, travel expenses, flat fees and a detailed list of billed work for your client. One system instead of two: project time tracking and employee time tracking run together. Working time models including part-time and flexitime, overtime balances, vacation, time off in lieu and sick leave with approval workflow, public holiday calendars per country and region, working time limits for Austria and Germany, and a monthly booking lock. The software adapts to your processes, not the other way round: add your own tables and fields, adapt forms, lists, permissions and reports, and automate calculations with IronPython. A sandbox environment lets you test changes before they go live. Your data is yours to use: every entity, including custom ones, is available through a Web API with OData (read and write) and TCQL. Power BI and Excel connect directly to the data, so reporting does not depend on built-in reports. This lets you connect time cockpit to ticketing or ERP systems. Fits into your Microsoft environment: single sign-on with Microsoft Entra ID and Office 365 appointments in the calendar. Hosted in the EU with a dedicated database: time cockpit runs on Microsoft Azure in EU data centers (Amsterdam and Dublin). Every customer gets a dedicated database with 35-day point-in-time recovery. Fair, flexible pricing: subscription per user and month, billed to the day and cancellable at any time. Support is included. Free 30-day trial with all features and unlimited users, no credit card required. People you can talk to: time cockpit has been developed since 2010 by software architects gmbh in Austria. The team that builds the product also provides support, onboarding and customization. ## Quick Stats & Ratings | Metric | Rating | Detail | | **Overall** | **4.8/5** | 5 Reviews | | Ease of Use | 3.0/5 | Based on overall reviews | | Customer Support | 5.0/5 | Based on overall reviews | | Value for Money | 2.0/5 | Based on overall reviews | | Features | | Based on overall reviews | | Recommendation percentage | - | ( Likelihood to recommend) | ## About the vendor - **Company**: software architects - **Location**: Leonding, Austria ## Commercial Context - **Starting Price**: EUR 10.85 - **Pricing model**: Per User (Free Trial) - **Pricing Details**: Business €10.85 per user/month; Freelancer 1 user free for the first year, then €10.85/month; Starter €29.90 for the entire first year for up to 10 users, then €10.85 per user/month - **Target Audience**: Self Employed, 2–10, 11–50, 51–200, 201–500, 501–1,000, 1,001–5,000, 5,001–10,000, 10,000+ - **Deployment & Platforms**: Cloud, SaaS, Web-based, Windows (Desktop) - **Supported Languages**: English, German - **Available Countries**: Albania, Andorra, Australia, Austria, Belarus, Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Canada, Croatia, Cyprus, Czechia, Denmark, Estonia, Faroe Islands, Finland, France, Germany, Gibraltar, Greece and 37 more ## Features - API - Access Controls/Permissions - Activity Tracking - Alerts/Notifications - Approval Process Control - Approval Workflow - Attendance Tracking - Automatic Time Capture - Billable & Non-Billable Hours - Billable Items Tracking - Billing & Invoicing - Budget Tracking - Calendar Management - Customisable Branding - Customisable Invoices - Customizable Fields - Customizable Reports - Data Import/Export - Dynamic Pricing - Employee Database ## Integrations (3 total) - Billomat - Jira - Microsoft 365 ## Support Options - Email/Help Desk - Phone Support - Chat ## Category - [Billing and Invoicing Software](https://www.getapp.com.au/directory/240/billing-invoicing/software) ## Related Categories - [Billing and Invoicing Software](https://www.getapp.com.au/directory/240/billing-invoicing/software) - [Time and Expense Software](https://www.getapp.com.au/directory/264/time-tracking-expense/software) - [Time Tracking Software](https://www.getapp.com.au/directory/571/time-tracking/software) ## Alternatives 1.

Alternatively they have their own basic built-in formatting for invoices, etc. which can be used. > > **Cons**: It's flexibility and documentation, while understandable overall, is largely oriented towards programmer-level operators. The app has a basic level of functions anyone can find useful, , but I'd appreciate whatever additional simple user - oriented functions they could pack in > > I've already commented positively on TimeCockpit and see they publish my comments which I'm happy about. Its the only app which gives my a clear view of my varied activities from which I feel confident billing. ----- ### "Time Cockpit solves beautifully the deficiencies I've found with other time apps." — 5.0/5 > **D. Miller** | *20 July 2013* > > **Pros**: Easy to reconstitute your day from various sources and indicators all in one screen, in graphical format. Much Flexibility in output and input. Very informed and helpful tech support > > After much exploration through 3-4 other time tracking systems, I'm very relieved to have found Time Cockpit. It has all the bases covered to enable me to mine the genuinely billable hours out of a fractured work day. With simultaneous input from various tracked sources in a graphical calendar, it is very easy to retrace with confidence which time slots apply to which projects. None of the others compare. Without this capability, I found myself spending way too much time trying to reconstitute and verify the tracked information. Beyond this, I also have to say that the technical guidance and support I've received from Time Cockpit has been impressive; informed, pro-active, and friendly - very helpful. I Highly recommend Time Cockpit to anyone who needs a real time tracking solution. ----- ### "Great Tool for time tracking" — 5.0/5 > **Stefan S.** | *17 July 2013* > > **Pros**: - Application tracker - Activity tracker - You can chat with the support directly on the website > > Easy to Use time tracker with clean UI. My favourite features are the activity and application trackers. Those track all the open programs and window titles of your PC, so you don't have to make a thought about time tracking while doing your work. You can reconstruct the things you've done afterwards. ----- ### "Time tracking in a software development company" — 5.0/5 > **Roman Schacherl, softaware gmbh** | *17 January 2013* > > We use time cockpit as our primary time tracking tool since 2012 - and we're really happy with it. As an option the software helps you to remember what you've done (by tracking used programs, files, networks, etc.) - a very useful feature for us. time cockpit is also completely customizable, we've extended it in some parts so that it perfectly fulfills our needs. We don't wanna miss time cockpit anymore in our company. ----- ### "Great Tool" — 5.0/5 > **Philipp Pendelin** | *14 February 2013* > > Due to the great extensibility, we also use time cockpit as our customer relationship management tool. ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.com.au/software/90662/time-cockpit) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | ----- ## Structured Data
