Julien G-Proulx (ID: 000000e719afc678) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/05/2020 So far the extension does exactly what I'm looking for.

Cliff Paulick (ID: 00000054e7d48cb2) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 12/07/2019 I use it because it's integrated with all my Zoho stuff, and it's usable, but it's not a pleasure to use for about a dozen reasons that I emailed to support months ago. I'll keep on waiting... Glad to have it at all though.

Rombout Versluijs (ID: 0000005f0e385f84) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 07/09/2019 its okay, but it does need the option to adjust time easier and to continou working on a task.
