Default Klok, Has Anyone Tried It?
I was looking for a time tracking option. I know there is myhours and some others, but I thought I would see if I could find anything else interesting out there. Anyway, I ran across Klok. I was just wondering if anyone had tried it out.

Hi Kellie

Kellie,
I did take a look at the website. It looks very interesting. I didn't research it thoroughly but it appears it might have been developed to work across different platforms. I also noticed that you'd have to download an free Adobe product to run it. That shouldn't be a problem, that's just what made me think it's made to work for Windows or Mac.

You have to download Adobe Air in order to run the program, but you are able to use it on different platforms. I read some concerns that there is security risks with Adobe Air, but from what I gather if you use common sense it shouldn't be a problem.

I downloaded the program last night and used it a little bit. It was easy enough. I looked at the reports and they seem to give you decent information. But everything can be downloaded into Excel. I like the fact that you can use subprojects. For instance, you can have the main project being your client's name and then each different thing you do for them as a subproject. It also utilizes drag and drop. So when you want to chose a project, you just click on it and drag it to the start area. It is pretty cool. I haven't used any other time tracking software, so I really have nothing to compare it to, but so far I like it.

Kellie,
It sounds like it's pretty good to work with- especially the drag and drop feature. I also like the idea of downloading the data into Excel. I haven't used any other time tracking programs either so I don't have a comparison. Are you using it on a Mac or Windows based computere?

The more I work with Klok, the more I like it. It really is nice and easy to use.

Kimberly- I run Windows Vista Home Premium and it works well.

Hi Kellie,
I just downloaded this today and am starting to use it - beginning of the month and all!

I was wondering if you're still using it, and how you like it by now?

I also had a question about dragging tasks to time slots and how that might work. It seems to count it as time worked although its in the future? Just not sure how that pans out yet.
