RescueTime works in the background to identify the tasks you're working on and provides insightful reports on productivity. > > **Cons**: Integration with other systems would be invaluable as we've recently moved to a different solution that integrates with some of the other products we use internally. > > Time sheets and time tracking can be painful. RescueTime takes away the stress by working in the background to identify the tasks you're working on, which is great. ----- ### "Excellent tool to track your/employee productive time" — 5.0/5 > **Adithya** | *November 29, 2018* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: \* Great easy to setup tool to track all activities done in system. \* Extremely accurate regarding the activities and time usage. \* Excellent reporting to generate and analyze the pattern. \* Can be used to track Employee productivity. \* Not a privacy nightmare as many sensitive data is not captured. \* Can be used to track our computer usage and help us to be more productive. \* Supports mobile devices and linux,Mac as well. > > **Cons**: \*Bit expensive for premium version/organization plans. ----- ### "Not the best time managment software but not bad either" — 3.0/5 > **Kaila** | *June 16, 2018* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: Its a simple software to use, that keeps track of how and where you use your time on the computer, it´s really helpful to see at the end of the day how much time you spent doing what and to complete the goals you set for your self and it helps a lot knowing really how much "working" time you spend not being productive > > **Cons**: Since i work on different projects but on the same software or webpage it became hard to track how much of thet time was actually spent on the different programs, so it didnt really work for me ----- ### "Surprisingly accurate and very insightful" — 5.0/5 > **David** | *May 8, 2018* | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It was easy to get set up and customize what behavior is considered valuable or not to my work day.
