This comprehensive list will ensure that you are organised and on top of any challenges that come your way during your busy working day. All tools that are featured in this blog post are free, and will increase productivity for any contractor.
Toggl
Toggl is one of the tools which we would suggest investigating. Toggl allows contractors and freelancers to give an accurate representation of time spent on each task.
Toggl allows you to make an account for free and track how long they spend on each, individual task that they are completing.
For example, in Toggl you can create and organise new tasks by giving each task an appropriate name. This allows the user to start a timer which can be stopped once you have completed a certain task.
We would recommend this tool as it is a free and simple way to track the work you are completing, and is guaranteed to give accurate results.
