On the Job is the perfect Time-tracking tool for me.

A good app, easy to learn and good service. It finally has been updated but there are still some issues that I would like to see, such as a better invoice editor. I will continue to veal new version and update later.

I agree, the invoice editor is sorely lacking and clumsy. I hate that the PAID stamp is non-editable and it just randomly stamps it wherever it feels like. Also adding/editing logos is cumbersome.

I like most everything about On The Job except the invoicing and also editing times for work is cumbersome as well.

Good software that should have been better. I think it's been about a year and a half I've been asking the developer when/if he's going to continue with this app, and each time he's said that he will be advancing it along. However, we're *still* stuck on version 3.0.3

There's a lot of frustrating things about this app, even simple things like customizing text on an invoice. It's too bad, this app could have been great. It's time for me to move on.

I have to agree with Rybu03051. This app looked very promising when I bought it two years ago, but no significant updates have been released every since. Invoicing as is doesn't work for me and a corresponding feature request died after a short period of involvement.

It appears, the makers of On the Job have shifted to the more lucrative iPhone app market. Maybe the Mac App store will eventually spark a revival, until then, place it somewhere between abandonware and Duke Nukem Forever.

This app has not been updated for a while. I bought in the hopes it would get better. I have sent feature requests and not received a response and no updates have been released for a while.

Great looking product with a very nicely thought out interface, but a few details make it unusable for me.

* Most time/billing apps I have used mark an item as billed once it has been used on an invoice, but On the Job lets you re-invoice previously invoiced items over and over again.

* On a printed invoice, there is no way to show the unit cost of a line item. You can only show the quantity and the extended total.

* No updates since Aug 2009. Developer seems focused on iPhone/iPad development.

This is very good indeed. I just finished running a trial of pretty much this whole field of time-tracking/invoicing software, using them all in my daily freelance workflow. This was the one that made the cut. I liked OfficeTime as well, but this a bit better. Very well designed and solid. For my mind, intuitive. Full featured. Simply great.

And actually, to reply to the previous review "no pause job, just stop job" -- if that were true it would be a show stopper for me. However, you can stop and start a task, essentially pausing it. And then the cool thing is that if you double click the time, each chunk of a particular job shows up. I basically call a "job" a running invoice, whether a month or a project. Then each job has tasks. Tasks can be started/stopped, essentially paused. For me a task might be a single simple task for a client, or a running total of the day's work on a larger project, which will have several starts and stops.

I not too sure why others have not reviewed this app, but I guess I will be the first. On the Job (OTJ) is a pretty functional piece of software. The organisation of the task timing is nicely done. You have clients, and under each client, you have projects. Within these projects you have jobs, or tasks.

Each job has a title and notes as well as the times in which you worked on the job. It has a list of all the dates and starting times you activated the timer for that particular job. You can invoice 3 different filters -- Invoice this Job, this Client or All Jobs. Then you set the date range.

The invoices are okay. You can choose from templates and customize them if you want. This is where the app breaks down a little. The customization is a little awkward and hard to get "just right", so if you are a perfectionist, good luck getting exactly what you want out of them. But, overall you can get a nice invoice to send to you client.

Another cool feature is the menu bar icon which you can start and stop timers for any of your jobs. The app has a great inactivity monitor which if inactive for too long it warns you and gives you a choice to stop and remove time or continue. The one thing it misses that I would like is a pause.

Pros: Clean interface, nice organization, inactivity monitor, menu bar control and it hasn't crashed on me yet (I have been using this for months).

Cons: Invoice "designer" is a bit awkward and hard to get "just right"; no pause job, just stop job and I would like, but don't need, a notes section for the different times (nice if you want to leave yourself a note from where you left off).

Summary: A good solid and stable app that does exactly what you need and quite a bit of what you want. It is a crucial piece within my workflow.
