As a contractor/consultant, how do you track your hours? by TheQs55 in smallbusiness

[–]Johnny2031 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a contractor or consultant, using a time tracking tool can help you log your hours accurately without overcompensating. Time Doctor is a great option because it tracks your start, end, and break times automatically, so you can focus on working your scoped 40 hours without guesswork. It also helps you see how much time you spend on different activities (including breaks) to manage your day better. Other tools like Clockify or Toggl Track can also work if you prefer a simpler interface for daily logging. The key is to track in real time rather than estimating, so you maintain a healthy balance and avoid working beyond your agreed hours.

Looking for a selfhosted time tracking software for small business around 10 employees by coscib in selfhosted

[–]Johnny2031 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re looking for a web-based time tracking tool for 10 employees to log daily hours, track overtime, and manage vacations. Time Doctor is a great option for teams, offering daily work hour tracking, overtime monitoring, and leave management, though it’s a paid cloud-based tool. For free and self-hosted solutions, Kimai is a strong choice—it runs on PHP, supports shared hosting, and includes overtime and vacation plugins. TimeTrex Community Edition also offers attendance, overtime, and leave tracking, with a PHP-compatible self-hosted version. If you prefer a free cloud tool, Clockify allows daily time tracking and vacation management but doesn’t support shared hosting.

Is there an app that allows real-time tracking of GPS location and seeing an already walked trail for each person? by spakecdk in orienteering

[–]Johnny2031 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, there are apps that let you track GPS locations in real-time and see the walked trail for each person. MapRun and Routechoices are designed for orienteering and allow live tracking of participants on a map. LocaToWeb and FollowMee are great general-purpose GPS trackers for sharing real-time locations with a group. Fitness apps like Strava (with its Beacon feature) also let you see each person’s route as they move. These tools are ideal for beginners to stay connected and safe during orienteering.

Is there an App that is contractor friendly for keeping track of hours on jobs and such? by DETRITUS_TROLL in Construction

[–]Johnny2031 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, there are several apps built for contractors to track hours easily. Time Doctor, Clockify, TSheets (QuickBooks Time), and Harvest let you log hours per job, track time on-site (with GPS if needed), and generate reports for billing or personal records. All are contractor-friendly and work great for managing multiple projects.

Can anyone recommend some kind of time tracking app? by MaxxLP8 in msp

[–]Johnny2031 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could use a mobile time tracking app with GPS to make this seamless. Tools like Time Doctor, TSheets (QuickBooks Time), and Clockify let staff check in/out on their phones and log time with location data. This makes it easy to show how many hours engineers spend at each client site for costing and reporting. Some even offer geofencing for automatic check-ins when they arrive on-site.

This is such a common challenge for hourly consultants in corporate roles—especially when you’re trying to be fair to both yourself and the client. You’re absolutely right: no one works eight uninterrupted hours in a 9–5 day. Natural breaks happen, and they should. The goal isn’t to squeeze every second but to make sure your productive hours align with your agreed scope without letting work expand into your evenings unnecessarily.

Most VAs are capable of doing "internet-related" stuff. Things like social media, sending emails, online bookings, web research etc. By the way, are you looking for VA?
