What users say about Kimai
We have been using Kimai for our time management for a short time and are very satisfied. A nice design and easy operation were important to us, but the biggest plus point is the support: The team responds quickly and addresses all wishes and concerns, even if a special solution is needed. Therefore, we absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for a time tracking solution 👍
Jasmin
Software DeveloperI needed to find a good time tracker on short notice, and wanted it to be EU hosted and open source. Luckily, I found Kimai and have been very happy with it ever since, especially because it is very straightforward and intuitive to use. After using it for my initial project, the Kimai team helped me migrate my data for company use, now allowing us to roll it out for the entire team without losing the original data. Keep up the good work!
