Do you take notes manually, or track time with tools?
What about the analytics that you receive?
Do you get actionable insights with respect to what you gave?

@ameliagoodman Which features do you like in it?
@elifduran ok my fav feature is the little unicorn pop up when you complete a task lol. just the right dose of serotonin to keep me goin
Hey! I've been using Flowace to track time spent on each task. It's very automatized!
@martina_hackbartt I used some auto-trackers but did not hear Flowace before, will take a look at it.
I don't time my tasks, but i do track them on my to-do list in Evernote (old school alert!). I have heard some good things about Centered and Focusmate - haven't used either personally.
@swapdp_01 One of the essential thing is the to-do list and prioritization, agree! I use Notion for it.
I use google sheets :D
@jakob90lv Interesint idea! Are you making a gant, or just a list?
Hubstaff works well for me and other members of the team. I would like to check BeforeSunset too.
ParagraphAI saves a ton of time - its the first AI writing assistant on mobile https://www.producthunt.com/post...
I use Notion for keeping track of basically all business organization and then I use ParagraphAI to save time on write ups and tedious writing tasks
Notion! for tracking notes and tasks, especially with braindump.
Having analytics for tasks can be fun though, especially if there's a way to gamify. I usually also use the Eisenhower matrix to categorize tasks.
@melanieyzs I also use Notion for myself and my organization, Notion integration is in our roadmap, can't wait for this!
ClickUp, Notion, and pen and papper

We end up using Monday and adding in a time tracker to that. You can create a dashboard to view across your team what everyone's accomplished.
We use Harvest time tracking in our agency... It's pretty simple but gets the job done and can integrate with Asana, Basecamp etc.
The dream would be to not have time sheets at all and just price based on the value of the output, not hourly rates!
@mark_campbell_outlign Our aim is to create the simplest work management tool that will end up you to work in a healthy environment, and finish the work before sunset :)
We mean, seeing burnout before it is too late, or remind to have a break when you are working hours at the desk.
@elifduran thanks for the reply... I definitely love the goal and we've always aimed to run an agency without the usual crazy overtime expectations placed on staff... so getting out before sunset is our goal too.
Timing app for automatic tracking, Notion for personal life and Airtable for registering hours for customers
For time tracking: Clickup
and recently, for teamwork management: Oppflow
They're both very useful!
@janset_angi I have not heard Oppflow before but definitely check it! For both time and team management tool, recommend you to subscribe BeforeSunset 🚀
Well, I think I am in need a tool for that as I've realized I don't track how much time I spend on a task at all. Subscribed!
I would say use google sheets because it's free and second you are getting time to act on some tasks like typing the to-dos in the sheets so your productive again
