What users say about Kimai
I love how I can combine time tracking, expense tracking, and invoicing into one app without features hidden behind nagging subscriptions. I can click one button to invoice my clients now! Seriously a godsend. Also, the clean UI is well thought-out and simple to learn. Highly recommend this one!

Media Composer, Studio CellistWe 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 DeveloperThe best software for time tracking for freelancers and small businesses. We have been using it for 16 years, first as a local installation, then in the cloud version. It works without any problems or interruptions. Top software, top support! Unique recommendation.
