"Managing Remote Team Made Much Easier"

Before using Apploye, managing my remote team felt like guessing. I didn’t really know who was working on what or how things were going. Now, I can see how my team is working, which helps me plan better, set fair deadlines, and make sure no one is getting overwhelmed. It’s made us more productive and completely solved our problem with tracking remote work.

"Useful Tool for Remote Teams!"

We used it to track the daily timesheet of our team and see how much time each task takes us to complete, so we could improve our planning activities later. If you manage remote teams or working in one, Apploye is really the thing to go for.

Due to current market dynamics, we had to transition from onsite work to remote work. Most of our employees are working from home now Apploye came in very handy to track the work of our remote employees.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does remote employee time tracking work in Apploye?

Employees select a project or task and start the Apploye timer. Their hours are added to a timesheet that managers can review and approve.

How long does setup take?

Just sign up, invite your team, and have them install the desktop app. Most teams are tracking the same day. Nothing to configure before you start.

What does it actually cost?

Free forever for up to 10 users. Elite is $4.50/user/month billed annually ($7 monthly). Power is $8. The owner seat is free. 30-day money-back guarantee.

What's included at $4.50 per user, and what costs extra?

Elite ($4.50/user/month billed annually, $7 monthly) includes time tracking, timesheets and approvals, attendance, 18 screenshots per hour, app and URL tracking, integrations, custom reports, projects, invoicing, and payroll. Screen recording, stealth mode, higher screenshot rates, and API access are separate add-ons. Power ($8) includes the higher screenshot rate and API access.

Do employees have to install something?

Yes, a desktop app on Windows, Mac, or Linux, or the mobile app. It's visible on their machine. There's no hidden install unless you deliberately buy the stealth add-on.

Does it work across time zones?

Yes. Each user's local time zone is detected, and reports can be viewed in local time or converted to one zone for payroll.

Can managers approve timesheets?

Yes. Managers can review and approve tracked hours before using them for payroll calculations and related reporting.

Does it connect to the tools we use?

Yes, Apploye supports integration with Jira, Asana, Trello, ClickUp, Monday.com, Deel, and more are on the way.

Is a credit card required for the trial?

No. You can begin the 10-day trial of paid features without entering a credit card.

What happens when the 10-day trial ends?
