From a freelancer logging billable hours to companies with hundreds of users, Kimai scales professional-grade open-source time tracking - a Symfony/PHP application without the per-seat pricing of Harvest or Toggl. Tracking is flexible by design: run multiple concurrent timers, use punch-in/punch-out mode, or enter times manually, organized by customer, project, and activity with tags, and priced by user-, customer-, or project-specific rates. The billing pipeline is where Kimai earns "professional grade": generate invoices directly from timesheet data with configurable templates (DOCX, ODS, XLSX, PDF), entry grouping, and invoice-number generators, while an export flag locks billed records against editing and excludes them from future invoices - the audit-safety detail spreadsheet workflows never get right. E-invoicing supports EN 16931, XRechnung 3.0, and Zugferd/Factur-X. Enterprise controls come standard: SAML and LDAP login against Google Workspace, Azure AD, or Authentik, TOTP two-factor auth, customizable role permissions, and teams that scope customers and projects to departments. Money and time budgets alert before overruns, advanced reporting slices recorded time by any dimension, and an extensive JSON API plus a plugin marketplace (expenses, approvals, and more) integrate it with existing infrastructure. Over 30 translations, multi-timezone, AGPL-licensed.

Solidtime is a time tracker for freelancers and agencies, offering a modern SaaS-quality interface that rivals commercial tools like Toggl and Clockify. The time tracking interface provides a running timer, calendar view, and weekly timesheet for flexible entry across desktop, mobile, and the dedicated macOS, Windows, and Linux desktop applications. Project management organizes work by client with hierarchical billable rates configurable at organization, member, project, and project-member levels, ensuring accurate billing across complex team structures. The invoicing module generates polished PDF invoices and structured EU e-invoices with configurable VAT rates, percentage and fixed discounts, EU reverse-charge handling, reusable company templates, and automatic line item generation from billable time entries. Reporting provides filterable summaries by user, project, client, and date range with exportable data for billing audits and team retrospectives. Multi-organization support manages separate workspaces from a single account with role-based permissions controlling access across organizations. Data import from Toggl, Clockify, and generic Timeentry CSV files enables migration from existing tools without losing historical records. The RESTful API with bearer token authentication enables automation and integration with external services. Docker deployment with PostgreSQL runs behind Nginx or Traefik reverse proxy.

With over 1,600 GitHub stars and a design philosophy that fundamentally rethinks how time tracking should work, Traggo abandons the traditional project-task hierarchy that forces your work into rigid categories and instead lets you tag time spans with arbitrary key-value pairs — project:website, type:coding, client:acme, billable:yes — enabling cross-dimensional analysis that conventional trackers cannot replicate. The Go backend compiles into a single binary that runs alongside a SQLite database and embedded web UI in under 10MB total, consuming approximately 50MB of RAM at runtime and starting in seconds on even the smallest VPS. Tags are the fundamental data model: create any tag key with any set of values, then apply multiple tags to each time span simultaneously to track by project, client, task type, energy level, or any other dimension your workflow demands. Customizable dashboards render pie charts, bar charts, and line graphs from tag-aggregated data, letting you visualize time distribution across any combination of dimensions over configurable date ranges. The calendar view displays time spans as colored blocks across days and weeks, while the list view provides chronological entry browsing with inline editing. Multiple themes including light and dark modes adapt the interface to personal preference, and simple user management with role-based access supports small team deployments. Docker deployment runs a single container exposing port 3030 with multi-architecture support for amd64, arm64, and arm v7. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. GPL-3.0 licensed.

Invoicerr nails the exact billing sequence freelancers actually use: draft a quote, send it to the client, collect a legally-binding electronic signature via a secure browser link, convert the approved quote into an invoice, and generate a branded PDF — no DocuSign account, no external signing service, no enterprise complexity. The React frontend with NestJS backend uses Prisma ORM with your choice of SQLite for instant local setup or PostgreSQL for production workloads. Quotes and invoices are first-class objects with independent status tracking — unread, sent, viewed, signed for quotes; paid for invoices — not a single form with a label swap. The e-signature system generates secure-token signing links that clients open in their browser to review and sign documents without needing any account or external service. PDF generation renders quotes, invoices, and receipts with your company logo, name, VAT number, colors, and custom email templates so documents reflect your brand identity rather than the software's defaults. Authentication supports JWT tokens or OIDC providers stored in cookies. The REST API backend enables future integrations with mobile and desktop clients. A plugin system with community-made features and outgoing webhooks extends functionality without forking core code. International-friendly with customizable currencies. Deploy with Docker Compose using the prebuilt image from GitHub Container Registry. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.

Quote to cash in one web application - create quotes, convert them to invoices, record payments, track customers: iDURAR is an open-source ERP and CRM platform for small and medium-sized businesses. Built on the MERN stack (MongoDB, Express, React, Node.js) with Ant Design components and Redux state management, it presents a clean SaaS-style interface that needs little onboarding. Core modules cover invoice management with PDF generation and email delivery, payment recording against invoices, quote and proforma handling, customer records, and accounting views over the resulting data. Multi-currency support and localization make it usable for internationally operating teams. Because the whole stack is JavaScript with an API-first backend, extending it - custom fields, new modules, integrations - is approachable for any Node/React developer rather than requiring a specialist ERP skill set. Deployment is straightforward via Docker with a MongoDB instance. Licensed under AGPL-3.0 with free commercial use; a hosted enterprise version exists but the self-hosted edition is fully functional.

Trello's board model on your own server: Planka is an open-source Kanban project management tool. Boards organize into projects with lists, cards, labels, due dates, checklists, file attachments, and per-card stopwatch time tracking, all managed through drag-and-drop. Updates propagate over WebSockets, so a teammate moving a card or adding a comment appears instantly for everyone without a refresh - a genuine differentiator among self-hosted boards. Card descriptions use a full Markdown editor, custom fields adapt cards to your workflow, and views switch between Kanban, grid, and list layouts. Authentication supports OpenID Connect single sign-on with Google, Azure AD, Okta, or any OIDC provider - a feature Trello reserves for enterprise plans - and notifications reach 100+ channels including Slack, Discord, Telegram, and SMTP via Apprise. A REST API with 50+ webhook events supports custom integrations, and one-click board import eases migration. Built with React and Node.js on PostgreSQL, translated into 35+ languages, deployed via Docker.

"Less is more" is Kanboard's stated philosophy, and the free, MIT-licensed PHP application lives it: drag tasks between customizable columns, enforce work-in-progress limits per column, and slice boards horizontally with swimlanes for releases, teams, or priorities. Tasks carry what matters - colors, categories, subtasks with time estimates, Markdown descriptions, comments, attachments, internal links, and due dates - and move or duplicate across projects in one click. A concise query language filters any board dynamically (assignee, category, due date, description), and saved filters become custom views. The automatic-actions engine kills repetitive triage: on events like column moves or task creation, Kanboard reassigns, recolors, recategorizes, or closes tasks by rule. Around the board sit a calendar, per-project analytics (cumulative flow, lead and cycle time), Gantt view, and time tracking. Authentication spans LDAP/Active Directory, Google, GitHub, GitLab, and reverse-proxy headers; a JSON-RPC API, webhooks for creating tasks from external systems, and a CLI cover integration. A large community plugin catalog adds what core deliberately omits. With no external dependencies, it runs happily on anything from a Raspberry Pi up - translated into 30+ languages.

Akaunting is an online accounting software for small businesses and freelancers.
