Timeular has revolutionized the way we manage our time with a whimsical and functional physical tracker that ensures you never forget to log your activities. Setting budgets for your time is remarkably easy with this tool, allowing for effective management of various tasks and projects. The flexibility this system offers is enhanced by the use of tags, which you can customize and apply to different activities and notes seamlessly. By turning what could be a tedious task into an engaging and almost playful experience, Timeular not only improves productivity but also adds a dash of fun to your work routine. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about EARLY? We run a design agency and have our projects mapped to sides of the tracker. Each project however needs to be tracked more granual using tags like #meeting or #feature-nameoffeature. That's not possible now and needs to be assigned manually later, which is something we often forget. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is EARLY solving and how is that benefiting you? We did not do a good job tracking client hours before, now we do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Timeular was immediately helpful to me in my design business. Completely easy to integrate and it just became second nature to use it. I didn't use anywhere near the whole suite of features because it was just my time that I was tracking and categorizing, but it seemed like they have great features for teams. I also loved their customer service and support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about EARLY? I got the time cube tracker device but did not end up really using that. It might be great for some but it was easier for me to stay on track using the app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is EARLY solving and how is that benefiting you?

Timeular has been a very helpful tool for me in my time management system. It allows me to see realistically how I spend my time and how it is divided between different tasks. It allows me to look at data both on an up-close and macro level which is essential for both short and long-term projects and planning. I also like how user-friendly and intuitive Timeular is. I don't feel I am spending extra time on a complex system for time tracking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about EARLY? Since I pay for Timeular out of pocket (my company does not reimburse me) Timeular is a little expensive. I like the product a lot and would keep using it for the foreseeable future if it was just a tiny bit more affordable for me. Around 60 USD per year would be ideal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is EARLY solving and how is that benefiting you? Timeular lets me see realistically how I split my time between the various types of tasks I have to complete. In my case that is research; teaching; service; professional development; admin work; and planning. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 3/19/2024 "My favorite time-tracking app, continuously improved by a responsive and talented team" 5/5 What do you like best about EARLY? I've never been very successful at tracking my time before Timeular. It was always the worst part of my week and I was always playing catch-up. Now I track my time even when I don't have to because the desktop app with its wonderful UX, keyboard shortcuts, and great reporting has become second nature to use. I started off using the physical tracker as well which I do love but have since gotten to where I only use the desktop app. Additionally the API has allowed me to create some personal tools to check my current status for the day and even build some exporting utils so that I can use Timeular with other time tracking apps as needed. If you ever have an issue with Timeular and you click on the help icon you're greeted with help chat right within the app, and the team is very responsive. Finally the Timeular team releases updates with cool new features and bug fixes very frequently. I don't work for Timeular, just a fan. One of my favorite tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about EARLY? No downsides for me. This isn't to say that I haven't had gripes about certain interactions or features but they always seem to smooth those over at a quick pace before I've even become annoyed enough to complain. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is EARLY solving and how is that benefiting you? Making time tracking effortless and providing all the tools I need to get reporting and data into and out of Timeular as necessary. The smart UI / OS integration is paramount.

The physical reminder about changing timing for tasks as I so often get pulled from one thing to another. The software makes it so easy to pull back time to the new task when I have forgotten to change the tracker. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about EARLY? I was worried that my tracker had stopped working but it turned out that my Bluetooth card needed an aerial and this was spotted by Timeular support - so not a dislike in the end.

Atlassian Project Manager Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 2/29/2024 "I love, love, love Timeular. I could not get through my day without it." 5/5 What do you like best about EARLY? I love how easy it is to track my work. A quick keyboard shortcut starts the tracking and then lets me start tracking the next task. I have the Timeular 8-sided physical tracker. Having a simple, physical object that I can use to start and stop my tracking makes it more likely that I will keep my time tracking up to date. They have added Calendar integration, which takes the app to a whole new level for me. Not only is the app great, but the people behind the app are awesome. If I have a problem or question, they respond quickly with really helpful suggestions. They keep adding features and growing what is already a great product into something that is awesome. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about EARLY? I wish that app could read my mind and enter my aspirational time spent. When they get that feature, I'll be able to retire and just think about how I would have spent my time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is EARLY solving and how is that benefiting you? Before Timeular, I had a really hard time tracking where my time was spent. I had lots of different gadgets and schemes, but none of them really worked. As a consultant, I need to make sure that I am billing my time to the right clients for the right amounts. Timeular has been a gamechanger for me. Now my timesheets are accurate and up to date. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Timeular has been a core component of my work since 2019, when I started with a small number of activities. I've grown how much I use it over time, and how I use it, and Timeular has continued to improve at the same time. The app is amazing, and the updates that they've introduced (quick tracking, goals/targets/budgets) and the small fixes they've made just make things better. Their support staff is top notch, even responding to little quirks like "why do these percentages add up strangely?". Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about EARLY? I use Timeular for personal and work tracking, and sometimes I forget to toggle the personal activities off through the mobile app. I can usually correct this within a day or so, and the app makes it easy to do so. The "automatically stop tracking after X hours or Y time" doesn't work for me, since sometimes those personal tracking events run long or into the early morning. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is EARLY solving and how is that benefiting you? Where does my time go? It's a simple question, but it tells so much. I use timeular to break down my monthly (and yearly) activities to gauge how I'm doing in my goals: am I spending enough time on research or in a deep work state, am I spending too much time on things that don't matter? It's extremely helpful to have the lightweight-yet-powerful tracking and analytics at my disposal for those personal retrospectives. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I've liked the idea of this tool since the very beginning, and I supported the project already in the crowdfunding phase. And it still belongs to my daily routine as a freelancer offering social media performance marketing. It really makes my life much easier. I can easily track also short periods of time, I can add as many different customers as needed, and can use the insights for my invoicing without any hassle. What's more, the support is not only fast, but also very helpful and friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about EARLY? Can't think of anything I dislike at the moment. I'm a real supporter. ;-) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is EARLY solving and how is that benefiting you?

I have tested many different time tracking systems during my search, including the market leaders. None of them worked as well for me as Timeular does now. I use the physical device, the Timeular Tracker, to track my activities every day. The software is updated regularly and gets more and more smart features. It's really easy and intuitive to use and will never stand in your way. It integrates with a lot of apps and services flawlessly. I, for example, particularly enjoy using the calendar integration and automatic tracking. Only the iOS app could do with an update, even though the desktop software is clearly the heart of the system. I only had to call on support once. My problem was solved quickly and a few ideas for new features were recorded and forwarded internally to the developers. Simply good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about EARLY? Maybe just a little thing, offering a free plan with reduced functionality for buyers of the physical tracking device. Another thing that would make Timeular even better in my eyes would be the ability to automatically create time entries based on rules for recognized activities. But as far as I understand, the guys are already working on it. I'm really looking forward to this feature soon. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is EARLY solving and how is that benefiting you? It helps me to get an overview of where my time disappears to during the day. And allows me to use this overview to make changes in order to pursue my goals more effectively. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Show More Current UserValidated ReviewerSource: Organic AL Alistair L. Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 12/1/2023 "Timeular Time Organisation" 5/5 What do you like best about EARLY? Timeular is really simple to use. They have this unique, physical tool (an octohedron) that links to your PC by Bluetooth and in a moment you can swap between multiple faces to represent whatever you have assigned to that face. Whilst there are 8 physical faces the options are limitless, in that you can assign multiple choices to each face if required. When it's not being used the tool is sat in its base, resting on a point. When you want to assign an activity e.g. client billing you pick up the device and rest it on your desk so that activity is showing face up. Want to move to Client calls? Turn the face up to that option. Finished for the day or going on lunch? Put it back in it's base and it automatically stops recording. You can easily map your day to day working, to the minute if you require. The software can assign colours to different time options so you can get an immediate visual representation of your day, which also carries over to reports you can produce to demonstrate whatever you want that report to demonstrate. You can track trends in your timekeeping, keep track of indvidual billable time to multiple different clients, to the minute, which enables you to account for your time to those clients in as granular a detail as you or they would require. If you're running your own business, with multiple staff using Timeular then there are various tools that can be used to work with and monitor performance as well as to collaborate on projects with your colleagues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about EARLY? There aren't any really. The interface is really intuitive, customer services are really responsive and they're regularly updating their product, both due to internal decision making ans suggestions from their user base. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is EARLY solving and how is that benefiting you? It's really useful in spotting trends and identifying weak spots in my working day because I can see exactly how long each day, week, month etc I am spending on aspects of my role and it allows a constant processs of refinement in order to make your day as efficient as possible. What's also interesting is that it gives you a true picture of your actual day, that you may not actually understand without the data at your fingertips. For example, we will all have had the type of day where we have great plans to get lots done but then, for whatever reason, we get to the end of the day and don't seem to have done anything we planned. It can feel like a wasted day where we feel like we got nothing done. A quick glance at Timeular can show me exactly what I was doing and reassures me that whilst I may feel that the day might have been wasted I actually achieved a great deal, although maybe not originally for what I had planned. I used Timeular in my previous company for about 5 years and liked it so much that I've had it adopted at my present company. It improves my productivity because I am aware of exactly how much I'm working and it pushes me to focus and work more when I can see that I may not have worked as hard as I should have at certain points. For business use it's great but because the subscription cost is so low I also have a personal account that I use for learning Japanese. Learning this language is so complicated as an English speaker and has so many different elements i.e. it has grammar and vocabulary of course but it also utilises 4 alphabets with Kanji composed of approximately 2150 unique ideographs in common usage. It's important to keep on top of all the different aspects of the language as well as maintaining regular daily practice. Timeular helps me keep track of it all, whilst also ensuring that are am not dedicating too much time to one aspect of learning the language and thus keeping a balanced approach to learning. Also, at times, it can get really tough and you feel that you haven't achieved anything or haven't done very much work that week but all you have to do is look back through your entries on Timeular to really see how you're doing. Of course, if I am slacking in a particular week with my study the weekly emails breaking down my progress for the previous week also then give me the impetus to start studying again.
