"Really helps with time and task management"

I'm able to accurately track where time is being spent effectively and which applications are unproductive. Having a view of this helps with managing projects and time more efficiently. Really good tool for increasing productivity, especially with a team of remote workers.

"The best time tracker out there"

I love how easy it is to log time. It logs everything you do on your computer, so if you forgot to track time for a certain project, you can figure out later exactly when you started based on your activity and add it manually. It has a superb dashboard and top-notch customer service.

"Employee productivity tracking made easy."

Desktime provided us with a one-stop solution for time tracking including log-in & log-off timing. We could easily monitor an individual's productivity. It gave us good insight into who is "Working late" instead of "Staying Late".

"Improved our team productivity"

Our productivity has greatly risen. Within the team, there was a competitive atmosphere, and we were focused on achieving excellent results. According to our own business, we have discovered unproductive apps. We are extremely pleased with the outcome.

"Great to know effectivity, and productivity without being invasive"

I like how user-friendly it is, I can get very insightful reports about my team's performance just with a couple of clicks. I've been able to determine downtime, training needs, and any gaps that can help me optimize my team's performance.

"Extensive time tracking capabilities"

We used to use a lot of time tracking tools that came integrated with task managers, but none of those compare to what DeskTime offers. The automatic time tracking with the idle time tracking function is a revolutionary feature that allows us to measure the productivity levels of our employees.

CEO, Mid-Market

"Very helpful tool, a game changer for remote work!"

Desktime is an amazing tool that every company needs for working remotely. The features like daily and monthly productivity as well as the reporting create an accurate and complete profile of every employee.

Frequently asked questions about DeskTime Exports

To export time tracker data from DeskTime:

Head to the Exports section in the sidebar.
There, choose what kind of data you want to export: 11 different data sets are available. Once you've made your choice, you'll be asked to indicate the period you wish to be included in the export and the teams and team members whose data interests you.
Decide on the format for the data export: .xslx or .csv.

Depending on how much data needs to be included, the export may take some time to generate.

You can export timesheets to Excel in the DeskTime Exports section. It offers different types of data sets you can choose from, including Team Members' data and Work Schedules information – both of these exports include employee arrival and leaving times. Decide which type of export would work best for you in this case and who you'd like to have in the data (individual team members, whole teams, or maybe even the entire company). You'll also need to indicate the time period for which the data should be gathered.

There are several benefits that come with the option to download the time tracking data in Excel files as well. First, having access to the data in this format can let you do your own custom analysis and comparisons if you wish – while DeskTime provides various types of insights automatically, you might want to take a deeper dive into something more specific. Secondly, you can easily share the time tracking reports with others, like your customers, other managers, etc. Finally, by downloading the data, you can keep it in your own archive to access it anytime.
