Timely Reviews & Product Details

Two things: First their people, from technical support to customer service, were responsive, friendly, inquisitive and helped with both the tools and their effective utilization. Second is the memory.ai engine. It works. After a short period of clarifying what events were important - and which weren't important, memory picks up the important things and makes reviewing and recording time very efficient.

I have some concern that they are early-stage and at some point a very smart big company will acquire them and ruin the great service and product that they have created - and are creating. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Time reporting is generally considered to be a real drag. Timely does its best to help by automating Time reporting and recording activities. Memory shows us what we've been working on and for how long - applications, files, emails, URLs and locations. Memory entries can be converted into Time report entries. We use Tagging to categorise time entries which makes analysis much more powerful. Technical support is quick, friendly and useful. We've looked at numerous different platforms; Timely is a standout leader in this area. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are very few downsides to using Timely. Memory can get confused when generating automatic time entries but the benefits of having a full detailed record of what you've done massively outweighs that. It's a platform that gets constant updates and sometimes those changes can break some of our ETL routines but that's usually quickly fixed. The API is simple and comprehensive so the ETL issues are now a thing of the past. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The interface and the way Timely works are great. It’s easy to use without any difficulties, and it’s genuinely fun to operate. It also doesn’t make us feel overly watched or monitored, which is definitely a big plus. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

To be blunt, there’s really nothing negative I can say. Everything just feels better overall, and I genuinely don’t see any loopholes or problems. So I’d say there isn’t anything I dislike about it—if anything, that’s exactly what I like most about it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Timely offers a clean and user-friendly interface that makes time tracking simple and efficient. The automatic time tracking feature is especially helpful, as it reduces the need for manual entries and ensures accurate tracking of work activities. The timeline view provides great visibility into how time is spent across tasks and projects, which helps improve productivity and planning. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While Timely is very useful, there are times when the automatic tracking requires manual adjustments to ensure accuracy. Additionally, some advanced reporting and customization options could be improved to better suit more complex project needs. The pricing may also feel slightly high for small teams or individual users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Timely for my interior design business, and I love that I can log hours per project phase because that's how I bill for client work. It really helps take the guessing out of estimating my fees because I can look back and have clear hours logged per project. This is super beneficial when clients ask if I charge hourly or a flat fee. I also find it so helpful that Timely runs as a background app while I'm on the computer. If I forget to log hours, I can look back and use the tracking to see where my time went, which reassures my clients that their investment is worth it. Additionally, the initial setup of Timely was very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Project reporting can be cumbersome at times, and if it were simplified, it would help save time. The report organization could be simplified. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I still love the lay-out. It gives a great overview. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Before, I used to go to projects, timesheets and then generate a pdf with an overview. Now you need to go to reports and I find it a little bit more difficult to generate a pdf with the fields to be seen in the pdf to be selected. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like Timely's memory feature that tracks my activity across all platforms because it allows me to go back in time and see what I did in the past days. It really helps when I don't have time to track what I'm doing in real-time. I also like the AI help for tagging and classifying most of my time entries, which saves me time. Though it's not 100% accurate, it seems to get better the more I use it. The initial setup was really easy. I started using, and from the very first day, it seemed good already.

The AI feature is not as good as it could be. It makes a lot of mistakes, and it would be great to have better ways to train it. Like prompts or other feedback input for their training. Also, I tried connecting Timely with ClickUp with their native integration, and it didn't work as I'd like. The integration was a disaster for me. So I just forgot about it. The timely / ClickUp connection is not a must-have for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Super easy to set up and use, helps me track the work I do for my different clients much more easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's created a new timeline that doesn't work as well for consultants. I'm hoping the old timeline view will always be there otherwise I'll have to find a new product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Timely has been a game changer for us. We switch tasks frequently which can make it challenging to keep track of all the work we do. The insights that Timely has given us has led to more accuracy in timesheet updates and and increase in being able to invoice for billable work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's minor, but having to manually request the AI update for everyday takes a bit of time and could be done instantly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
