Read the overview

Trakkar is time tracking, attendance, leave and project margins in one plan for Indian professional-services teams, at ₹120/user/month + GST, with a 14-day free trial.

Trakkar is time tracking, attendance, leave and project margins in one plan for Indian professional-services teams, at ₹120/user/month + GST. You can try it free for 14 days, for any number of users, with no credit card.

This page is for consultancies and other client-billed professional services firms that need hours by client and project, billable and non-billable work, and staff attendance in the same tool. It is the umbrella page for that job. If you run a digital, design or marketing agency, see time tracking software for agencies. If you run a CA practice, see time tracking software for CA firms.

If you need a full PSA that turns timesheets into invoices, or a payroll and statutory HR suite, Trakkar is not the right fit. Hours logged in Trakkar do not become invoice lines on their own. GST invoicing is in the same plan, and you add the lines yourself.

What professional services teams need from a time tracker

A partner, operations lead or finance manager at an Indian professional-services firm is usually comparing tools that can do four things at once: log hours to a client or project, mark work billable or non-billable, show what an engagement is costing against its value, and keep attendance and leave next to those hours, with a price in rupees.

Many comparison pages assume invoices are built straight from tracked time. Trakkar works differently. You keep the time record, the attendance record, the project margins view and GST invoicing in one plan, then raise the invoice yourself.

Hours that belong to a client, a project and a person, not only a total for the week.
Billable and non-billable work, with hourly bill and cost rates set per person on each project.
A view of project value, cost to date, profit and margin while the work is still going on.
Attendance, leave and a team calendar in the same login, including India holiday presets.
GST invoicing, quotes and a client portal in the same plan.

Hours by client, engagement and person

In Trakkar, time is logged against projects and tasks that belong to a client. That is how you see hours by person, by project and by client, including the engagement you are billing. On the web app, people add time with a manual entry. There is no web timer. On Windows and Mac, the desktop app can record time while people work. One account covers web, Windows, Mac, Android and iPhone. There is no Linux app.

Task cards show hours logged. You can export reports as CSV or PDF. For a closer look at logging billable work, see how to track billable hours. To see the time-tracking workflow on a short watch page, see time tracking in Trakkar.

Idle time is flagged. Screenshots are on by default, with a per-person admin switch. People can see their own day view, including their screenshots and idle time.

Billable and non-billable work, with rates per person

Mark projects and tasks billable or non-billable, and set hourly bill and cost rates for each person on each project. There is no project-wide bill rate. Cost and billable value use the rates set for that person on that project, or their per-person defaults.

Finance can use that record when it builds an invoice, but nothing in Trakkar turns those hours into invoice lines.

Project margins while the work is going on

Each project has a Budget tab that shows project value, cost to date, profit, margin and a health badge. That is the project margins view.

Use it to check whether an engagement is still healthy before the month-end timesheet closes. For more on that view, see project profitability tracking.

Do not invent a utilization or realization rate, a thin-margin threshold, or a formula as a product feature. If a reader wants the difference between utilization and realization as a concept, point them to agency realization vs utilization without implying Trakkar computes those scores.

Attendance, leave and a team calendar in the same tool

Staff clock in from the web app or the phone app, and admins choose which ones the team can use. Each shift has its own grace period. India holiday presets are included, and admins can add custom holidays.

Leave, work-from-home, time corrections, overtime and expenses go to one approval queue. Approvers see the leave balance. Managers can approve leave, work-from-home, time-correction, overtime and expense requests from the Android and iPhone apps.

A team calendar shows holidays, approved time off, work-from-home days and birthdays in a month or list view.

This is part of why a professional-services firm might pick Trakkar over a standalone timer: the hours and the attendance record sit in the same plan, at ₹120/user/month + GST.

GST invoices, quotes and a client portal

Trakkar includes GST invoicing and quotations in the same plan. You can save clients with their GSTIN, put your GSTIN on the org profile so it appears on invoices, download invoice PDFs, and use invoice numbers that reset each Indian financial year. Quotes are linked to invoices. You can record part payments with TDS, sort unpaid invoices by days late, issue credit notes, and raise invoices in GBP or USD as well as INR.

Hours do not become invoice lines on their own. If you raise a GST invoice in Trakkar, you add the lines yourself.

Clients can use the client portal to see tasks and hours and to download invoices. For a short walkthrough, see the client portal. For the wider invoicing workflow, see time tracking and invoicing software. That page covers the same honest limit in more detail.

Where Trakkar fits, and when another tool suits you better

Trakkar fits an Indian consultancy or other client-billed professional-services firm that wants hours by client and project, billable flags and per-person rates, a project margins view, attendance and leave, and GST invoicing under one login, at ₹120/user/month + GST.

If you run an IT services or software firm, see time tracking software for IT services.

A full PSA is the better fit if your main need is invoices built automatically from approved timesheets, resource scheduling across a bench, or quote-to-cash workflows. A payroll or statutory HR suite is the better fit if your main need is salaries, PF, ESI or other statutory deductions. Trakkar does not run payroll.

Time tracking software for agencies stays the page for digital, design and marketing agencies, retainers and the agency workflow.
Time tracking software for CA firms stays the page for CA practices, including client-wise staff time, filing-season attendance and where a CA practice tool is the better fit.
Best time tracking software in India stays the comparison page.

What is the best time tracking software for professional services in India?

For an Indian professional-services firm that wants hours by client and project, attendance and leave, a project margins view and GST invoicing in one plan, Trakkar is built for that job at ₹120/user/month + GST. It is not a full PSA, and hours do not become invoice lines on their own. If you run an agency or a CA firm, use the pages linked above, which are written for those teams.

Can I track hours by client and engagement, not just by person?

Yes. Time is logged against projects and tasks that belong to a client, so you can see hours by person, by project and by client. That is the engagement record. On the web app, people add time with a manual entry. There is no web timer.

Does Trakkar mark work as billable or non-billable and let me set rates?

Yes. Mark projects and tasks billable or non-billable, and set hourly bill and cost rates for each person on each project. There is no project-wide bill rate.

Does Trakkar create invoices from tracked hours?

No. Hours logged in Trakkar do not become invoice lines. GST invoicing, quotations and a client portal are included in the same plan, and you add the invoice lines yourself. Clients can see tasks and hours and download invoices from the client portal.

How is this different from time tracking software for agencies or for CA firms?

This page is for consultancies and other client-billed professional services. The agencies page is for digital, design and marketing agencies. The CA firms page is for CA practices, including filing-season attendance and where a CA practice tool is the better fit. The product is the same plan at ₹120/user/month + GST. Use the page that matches your team, and follow the links if you need the other one.
