ClickTime Free Trial

Q: How do I demo ClickTime?
A: If you would like to demo ClickTime, go to Free Trial and fill out the submission form. You will be asked for some basic information. When we receive your submission for the demo request, we will activate your free trial, and you will be notified via email.

Q: How long does the trial/demo last?
A: 30 days.

Q: Will I be automatically billed at the end of the trial?
A: No. We must receive indication from you that you wish to continue using your account. You must activate your account at the end of your trial. Otherwise, your account is inactivated.

Pricing/Costs

Q: How much does ClickTime cost?
A: The pricing model can be found on our pricing page. There is a nominal startup fee and a month-to-month charge; however, there is no contract length and nothing to install.

Q: How is my company's invoice calculated?
A: We base your fee on your Average User Count. Each day, your account is measured and the number of active users is recorded. At the end of your billing cycle, we take a simple average of each day's user count to calculate your Average User Count for that billing period. We multiply that number against the cost per person, and that's the total bill. If you inactivate an employee mid-month, they will not be counted in the daily average as of the date you inactivate them.

Q: Why are "cookies" important?
A: If you have your cookies disabled, you will not be able to log into your account. Cookies are necessary to establish your session. You will most likely receive a "timed-out" indication upon logging in. If this occurs, go into your browser preferences and enable your cookies. If you are concerned about what information is collected about you with the use of these cookies, please read our Privacy Policy.

Q: I want to set ClickTime up on our local server. Is this possible?
A: No. ClickTime is not designed to be hosted on your server. ClickTime is web-based application. We do have a desktop application that each individual employee can download onto their desktop, but that is for time entry only.

Q: Who sets up the information (employees, clients, jobs, tasks, and divisions)?
A: Person(s) designated as your company's administrator(s) enters that information.

Q: Can we import our data into ClickTime, for example, our employees and previous time data?
A: We are able to do this on an as-quoted basis or if your company subscribes to the Corporate Rate Plan. Please contact sales@clicktime.com for further information.

Q: How can I access timesheet approvals and expense tracking?
A: Please contact your account manager at sales@clicktime.com for more information regarding the ClickTime Timesheet Approvals module and the ClickTime Expense Tracking module.

Security

Q: How secure is ClickTime and where does my data reside?
A: All customer data is safely stored at the ClickTime Datacenter, which has backup power, RAID storage, and nightly tape backup. (It's probably a lot safer than the data you keep in your own office.) For more information, please read our privacy statement.

Q: How often do you back up the data in your system?
A: We back up the data several times throughout the day. However, if backing up your data is an extremely important issue for your company, we recommend that you export your own company data to your hard disk on a regular basis and save it.

Q: What is SSL and what does it do for me and my company?
A: SSL stands for Secure Sockets Layer, and it provides secure connections for you and your employees while submitting data. While using SSL is more secure, the user will notice a slower ClickTime experience. For more information on SSL, go to http://webopedia.internet.com/TERM/S/SSL.html.

Q: Do I have the option to require SSL for individual users?
A: At this time you may only chose to have SSL required for all employees in your company using ClickTime. However, if individual users want to use SSL, they can simply add an 'S' after the http in the browser address. For example, from the home page, add the 'S' after http so that it reads: https://www.clicktime.com. The user will then be using SSL connections for the current session of ClickTime.

Q: Does ClickTime support single-sign-on?
A: We don't yet support a single-sign-on technology because we believe each of the major systems presents challenges. (SAML is limited to larger enterprises, Cardspace favors Microsoft-based organizations, and OpenID is simply too new & scarce.) Because we never spread ourselves too thin in matters of security, we're asking our customers to suggest the best direction for us. Based on their input we will likely adopt one of these systems. Please make suggestions and comments on our support form.

Exporting Data/Accounting System Integration

Q: Can ClickTime integrate into my existing billing or accounting system?
A: Currently, ClickTime only exports data directly to QuickBooks. Integration with other accounting systems is possible by exporting your data as an Excel or Text file and then importing it into your accounting system.

Q: Does ClickTime export to QuickBooks?
A: ClickTime does export data into QuickBooks. Please read these instructions for further information and directions on how to export your data.

Q: How much data can I export at a time?
A: You may export one year of data at a time. For example, you may export data from April 10, 2006 to April 10, 2007.
