Worktime Studio Description

A windows based desktop application which allows you to organize, manage, and track your time

Worktime Studio is a windows based desktop application which allows you to organize, manage, and track and prioritize your time, projects, tasks, notes and ideas. The flexibility in Worktime Studio allows you to customize the application to your specific needs. Many types of reports are provided to give you insight on exactly where and how your time is being spent. Worktime Studio helps you organize your projects, tasks and workload, while also allowing you to track your time, so you don't need separate applications to both manage and track your work. This makes Worktime Studio your ultimate personal workflow manager. The software's unique and flexible interface allows you to concentrate on your work, and less time managing and tracking your projects, tasks, and workload.

Work Efficiently
Worktime Studio works on the principal of Divide & Conquer, and allows you to easily break your projects, tasks and workload up into smaller pieces that we call WorkItems, and organize them in a way in which they are easy to manage. Most likely you have dozens if not hundreds of WorkItems you need to do in a typical work week. What's more, while you're busy working on one of your many WorkItems, many more WorkItems which need to be done come to mind. Worktime Studio realizes this scenario, and allows a very quick and easy way to enter these new WorkItems in its interface, without breaking up your current concentration or flow.

Worktime studio will allow you to perform your normal computer work without worrying about distractions, keeping track of breaks, or keeping count of non-work related activities. Worktime Studio does this while using little system resources and using little or no valuable desktop space.

Track your time
It's easy to track the time spent on your work using Worktime Studio. Unlike many time tracking software and time management software applications, Worktime Studio's user friendly interface allows you to track the time you spend on any of your different activities with very little interaction. You can even track time when your computer has been idle if you'd like. With Worktime Studio's compact Studio Bar interface, you can always keep an eye on the time you've spent on your current WorkItem, and see at a glance your progress on the progress indicator.

Save Desktop Space With the Studio Bar
The Studio Bar is Worktime Studio's unique solution to the limitation of valuable desktop space in today's Windows environment. The Studio Bar is a compact, dockable window interface to Worktime Studio, which is docked to the top or bottom of your monitor. The Studio Bar takes up little desktop space while displaying all the time related information of your current WorkItem, and giving you quick access to almost all Worktime Studio's features. You can perform practically all operation in Worktime Studio while in Studio Bar mode, allowing you to keep it in this mode while you perform your normal computer work. The Studio Bar, supports multiple monitor systems, allowing you to dock the window to any monitor.

Placing Worktime Studio in Studio Bar mode is as easy as double clicking on the status bar. Once in Studio Bar Mode, double clicking anywhere on the Studio Bar brings Worktime Studio back out of Studio Bar mode, and displays its standard interface. If the Studio Bar still takes up more desktop space than you're willing to part with, you can toggle the Studio Bar into auto-hide mode, where it will retract off of the desktop until you need it. Placing your mouse at the side of the desktop where the Studio Bar is docked will cause the Studio Bar to slide back into view.

The Studio Bar offers you the convenience of a fully functional interface like you have never seen before. In fact, with the quick and easy access you have to all of Worktime Studio's features from the Studio Bar, you'll be able to keep Worktime Studio in Studio Bar mode at all times.

Estimate Time More Accurately
When you break a medium to large sized project or job into smaller and smaller chunks, which we call WorkItems, you can more accurately estimate the time it will take to finish the project or job. Worktime Studio enforces this Divide and Conquer practice, and also encourages you to enter estimated times for all your leaf WorkItems. Doing this allows all branch WorkItems to automatically calculate the total estimated times of their descendents, giving you a detailed account of the estimated time for all the different levels and branches of your WorkItem Hierarchy. Worktime Studio then uses this information to accurately track your progress, and display your progress at each level of the hierarchy.

Not Everything You Do is a Project or Task
Most project management software and task management software applications limit you to creating projects and tasks for everything you do. Worktime Studio realizes that not everyting you do can be classified as either a 'Project' or 'Task'. That's why Worktime Studio allows you to create your own WorkItem types for your particular needs and work environment. If you're a software developer, you could create WorkItem types such as 'Defect', 'Feature', 'Requirements', and 'Unit Testing'. If you're a manager, you could create WorkItem types such as 'Scheduling', 'Project Meeting', 'Manager Meeting', 'Email Correspondence', 'Employee Review', and 'Interview'. If you're a student, you could create WorkItem types such as 'Class Attendance', 'Homework', 'Sports', and 'Work'. If you're a software tester, you could create WorkItem types such as 'Regression Testing', 'Acceptance Testing', 'Functional Testing', 'Writing Test Cases', 'Project Meeting', and 'Requirements'.

Worktime Studio comes installed with three basic WorkItem types 'Group', 'Project', and 'Task'. You are encouraged to create additional types based on your needs. When you create your own WorkItem types, you can assign your own icons to those types, and give them a specific color to distinguish them in your WorkItem Hierarchy. You can even set your own rules which determine which types can be children of other types. There's no limit to how you can customize Worktime Studio to meet your needs for the specific type of work you do.

Prioritize your Work
Worktime Studio's prioritizer allows you to determine quickly which of your activities to tackle next. The prioritizer is not your typical task list. The prioritized list can order your WorkItems by multiple criteria, including due date, priority, difficulty, and estimated time, allowing you to find the best WorkItem to tackle at any given time. What's more, you can apply many filters to the list to narrow down the selection of
WorkItems which you're interested in.

When Worktime Studio is in its Studio Bar mode, the prioritizer is just a click away, giving you quick access to determine what to work on next. What's more, you can change the current WorkItem, perform any of the clocking actions on the current WorkItem, and many more actions while in Studio Bar mode.

Generate Reports
Report generation in Worktime Studio provides you with a wide variety of different reports. You'll know exactly where your time is being spent and allocated. Reports can be customized and saved as report templates, allowing you quick access to your favorite reports. There's no limit to the ways that you can customize your own reports. You can even add your own markup to your reports, and create styles to make them look just how you want. There are literally dozens of chart properties you can set to change the appearance of the charts to fit your personal tastes. The reporting features in Worktime Studio are so flexible you can even customize them to be used for billing and invoicing.

Work Your Own Style
Everyone works differently. Worktime Studio allows you to configure its behavior to fit your specific working needs. Worktime Studio's flexibility allows you to concentrate on your work, not on the management and time spent on your activities. With Worktime Studio's many features, you will be able to manage your project, tasks and workload quickly and easily in a way that works best for you. Its user friendly interface allows you to add WorkItems quickly, and monitor their progress with very little interaction.

Your Personal Workflow Manager
As you can see, Worktime Studio is much more than a project tracking or task tracking software application. Worktime Studio manages your workload and workflow, while tracking the time you spend on your work activities. Worktime Studio is great for freelancers and contractors, as it allows you to very accurately allocate your time to your clients or client projects. Worktime Studio is also handy for employees who spend a lot of time on their computers, and do a wide variety of work. Keeping your workload and time managed will make you more efficient and allow you to control your workload, not let it control you. You can even use many of the detailed and summary reports to provide your managers with a graphical report of your actual or allocated time you spent during any particular time period.

If you would like to manage and track your time, projects, tasks and workload more efficiently, give Worktime Studio a try. Download a free trial of Worktime Studio today and discover how you can take charge of your time and workload.
