With a young family I’ve found myself drawn to calendaring and to using “to do” lists extensively. It has freed my time and energy to instead enjoy it with my wife and son.
I’ve turned my eye to doing some selective time tracking. This class of software is most often integrated into billing applications.
I’m looking at a few Mac apps:
- Marketcircle Billing $50
- On The Job $40
- TimeLog $25 ($75 with billing)
And a couple of web services:
- FreshBooks $360 /yr
- Harvest $144 / yr
- toggl $60 / yr
The spread in pricing of the web services surprised me. How does FreshBooks justify being so much more expensive?
Those prices are a year’s worth at the “solo” levels of these services. Except toggl, these web services are magnitudes more expensive than the Mac applications.
