## Reviews

### "Simple but Effective" — 4.0/5

> **Tom** | *October 3, 2024* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Ease of use, free version is excellent for basic time tracking.  Good memory of past timed projects.
> 
> **Cons**: The cloud functionality wasn't simple to set up, and I couldn't get a response from them.
> 
> Overall, it works very well, the free version is perhaps best suited for individuals rather than teams.

### "Elegantly Simple" — 5.0/5

> **Gareth** | *January 26, 2015*
> 
> I am an architect and need to track my time across multiple projects. After many years looking for such apps I discovered Grindstone and love it\!
It does nearly everything I really need, and is free\! The revised interface to version 3 is elegant and works, with a robust customisable database sitting behind it.  There are therefore lots of easy customisable options, with perhaps my only improvement request being better integration with outlook\!
I have hardly ever had to use the customer service, so I have given it 4 stars rather than 5. When I have they were very helpful.

I thoroughly recommend it\!

### "My Go-To Time Tracker" — 5.0/5

> **Shad** | *December 6, 2016* | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> Grindstone is simple to use and advanced enough to make my life simpler.  My favorite features are the inelegant tracking that knows to stop timing when I step out for a phone call, and also the income tracker so I keep within budget.
