![]() ![]() Integration options include Google Docs, Any.do, GitHub, Outlook, Slack, Trello and ZenDesk. One of our favorite features of TrakingTime Pro is its Chrome extension, which lets you track work time from inside other cloud productivity apps. Desktop tools are available for Windows, Mac and Linux, and mobile apps come in iPhone and Android flavors. ![]() Like Producteev, TrakingTime also supports remote productivity management thanks to cloud-powered applications. The user experience centers around a colorful drag-and-drop calendar that rivals Producteev in terms of ease of use, though it doesn’t offer the same level of customization (priorities, labels, etc). The closest cost-analog to Producteev is $ hours. There are several price tiers beyond that with more hours. ![]() However, you can only track up to 500 hours per month. The second option starts at $24.99 monthly and lets you add unlimited users. TrakingTime Pro can be billed at $4.99 per user per month or you can opt for a “by the hour” plan. Like Producteev Pro, TrakingTime Pro supports unlimited project and task creation. While task assignment might not be its raison e’tre, though, TrakingTime does include features to create projects and assign tasks and subtasks to your workforce. The tool can also be used to track how many hours your business works for various clients. The cloud tool’s goal is to help you see how your team allocates their workday hours. If you use iCloud, like I do, you may not be swayed to make the switch, but it's worth giving Sunrise a test drive before deciding.While Producteev focuses solely on task assignment tracking, TrakingTime is foremost an advanced time management tool. That's nitpicking, of course, and those design issues don't take away from Sunrise's excellent social features, especially if you're using Google Calendar. Plus, the ability to choose year and day views in Sunrise is sorely missing. That all the text is the same color doesn't help either (though the tailored icons-a fork and knife for "dinner," for instance-are a nice touch). Months and weeks don't scroll seamlessly, for one, and the layout of individual days in month view, with more white space between each line of text, actually gives the app a cluttered look. And unlike Calendar, that map is an accurate Google Map, not an Apple map.īut aside from those perks, using Sunrise just isn't as pleasant as using Calendar. Like Calendar, Sunrise shows a map if an event has a location. Type nothing, click away, and both the dialogue and event disappear. And, unlike in Calendar-where you're left with "new event" on the calendar even if you filled nothing in-it's easy to make an item disappear in Sunrise. Creating a new event in Sunrise is easier than in Calendar a single click pulls up the new event dialogue. There are a few minor changes that make a big difference in Sunrise's favor. In general, the interface melds the native Calendar app and mobile Sunrise, displaying color-coded events in either week or month view. Otherwise, it's about the same, including traditional Sunrise features such as access to recently launched 25,000 "Interesting Calendars" for things like sports schedules and holidays. While Sunrise for Mac is mostly a clone of the web app, it has a few desktop-specific features, such as integration with Notification Center and offline mode. If your main calendar is Google, for instance, and you also have LinkedIn and Twitter connected, then Sunrise will show photos and the latest tweets from those attending an event on your calendar. Users connect to their accounts on Google, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Foursquare, Producteev, Evernote, Github, Songkick, Asana, and TripIt (and, soon, Exchange). Like the mobile version and web app (which launched, along with an Android app, in late May), the desktop Sunrise excels at social network integration. Unfortunately, after using this service, I found that its top-dog status doesn't translate to the Mac, where the native Calendar app still reigns supreme. Sunrise, the best iOS and Android calendar app, is now available for Macintosh. ![]()
