Oh wow! Thank you for this Augusto! I'm a bit biased, but I do agree with your conclusion that Toggl Support team is, indeed, awesome! :)

I am a developer so I'd have for example a customer, then some projects which is one for the web and one for the mobile app and then I have tags to keep track of how much time I am spending on: bugs, features, builds, meetings, general, testing.

I have a client for which I do tasks for various customers of that client, so I use the tags to identify which customer the task was done for. So, if she wants to know how much time I spent on one customer, I'm able to tell at a glance.
For example,
Description of Task: Install Mailchimp Form
Project: VA Packages
Client: My Client
Tag: Customer's Name
It would probably be more efficient for me to use the customer name as the Project, but this is how I've been doing it thus far.
Another way to use tags is to group together tasks by type, so that you can see at a glance all your tasks of that type. For example, automation tasks, research, documentation.
Hope this is helpful, Moshe!

The most common use of tags is to mark time as "billed" or "invoiced". This allows you to know what you've already charged to the client and what you haven't. If you don't have a clear purpose for them, I suggest you don't use them at all. Just because they are there doesn't mean they'll be useful to your specific use case.

Adding employees is very easy. You just need to have their name and email and whatever permissions you want them to have. If you are transferring your ClockShark data to your accounting program (i.e., Quickbooks) you will be prompted to "map" the new employee to your program, which is just confirming that you are matching the data with the correct employee. Removing an employee is done by simply going into Employees and clicking the Active button to inactivate them. Simple.
