How to use DeskTime effectively for agency time tracking

Manage projects and calculate the costs precisely

Having several significant projects on the agency's plate at once can be a bit of a load to carry. However, it's a common reality. DeskTime offers a helping hand with features such as Project tracking and Cost calculation. Acknowledge how much time the team spends on particular tasks, divide your workforce accordingly, and be aware of how much each project costs your agency.

Work from anywhere and stay accountable

Does your agency have remote workers? Or are you being flexible with your employees' working location and schedules in general? DeskTime tracks time from anywhere, offering offline time tracking for situations where your employees are not able to stay online.

Support a healthy work-life balance

Having a time tracking app can add a lot more healthy work-life balance, even if that sounds controversial at first. DeskTime offers a Private time option that provides employees with desktop privacy during working hours when needed. Employees also have access to the same productivity and time data their manager sees, so there are no hidden metrics, and performance conversations are grounded in data both sides can verify.

Integrate the time tracking tool with useful 3rd party apps

Agencies often use various tools or services for fast-tracking their work. DeskTime's agency time tracking app can be integrated with project management tools, calendar apps, and more. Whether your agency's using, for example, Asana, Trello, or Google calendar – sync them with DeskTime and start tracking your work time right away.

Time tracking your agency team will actually accept

Agency employees—designers, copywriters, strategists—often assume time tracking means being watched. DeskTime is transparent by design: every employee sees their own data in real time, knows exactly what is and isn't being recorded, and can enable Private Time to pause tracking whenever needed. No hidden metrics, no surprises. For agency managers, that means less pushback during rollout and more reliable data in the long term.

A time tracker that won’t interrupt your team’s workflow. Ever.

Forget manual entries and distractions. With DeskTime, time tracking runs on autopilot—zero effort needed.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. DeskTime is transparent for employees by design. Every team member has access to their own dashboard that shows the same productivity data, project hours, and time breakdowns as managers do.

Employees can also enable Private Time to pause tracking at any point, and they are notified when the app is active. For agencies introducing time tracking to creative teams, this visibility reduces resistance at rollout and builds the kind of trust that makes the data reliable over time.
