# CronCrunch

Time tracking — clients, projects with budgets, a running timer, timesheets, a week calendar, tags, reports, and opt-in monitoring.

<Answer label="What is CronCrunch">
CronCrunch is Easerix's time-tracking tool: organize work into clients and
projects, track with a live timer or log time by hand, fill a weekly
timesheet or drag entries onto a calendar, tag and bill entries, and read
reports of where your hours went and what they earned. Monitoring is strictly
opt-in.

## What you can do

| Capability | In short |
|---|---|
| Timer | One running timer — start on a project, stop when done |
| Time entries | Manual logging, inline editing, billable flag, delete |
| Tags | Label entries, create tags inline, filter by tag |
| Timesheet | Week grid per project — type hours straight into cells |
| Calendar | Week timeline — drag on empty space to log time |
| Clients & projects | Projects belong to clients, carry a color, hourly rate, and budget |
| Budgets | Per-project hour budgets with progress bars and over-budget warnings |
| Reports | Totals, billable amount, by-project/by-client and by-day breakdowns, CSV export |
| Shared projects | Share a project so teammates can log their own hours against it |
| Monitoring | Opt-in activity timeline and screenshots from the desktop app — [read the details](/croncrunch/monitoring) |

## How it fits together

**Clients → projects → time entries.** A client is who you bill; a project is what you track against (with its rate, budget, and color); a time entry is a stretch of tracked or logged time on a project. Everything else — timesheet, calendar, reports — is a different lens on the same entries.

Your entries are yours: sharing a project lets teammates log *their own* hours against it, and never exposes anyone's entries to anyone else.

## Frequently asked questions

### Where do I open CronCrunch?

In the Easerix app at [app.easerix.com](https://app.easerix.com) — CronCrunch is one of the tools in the launcher.

### Can I run two timers at once?

No — there is exactly one running timer. Starting work on something else means stopping the current timer first, which keeps entries honest.

### Is anything recorded without my say-so?

No. Activity and screenshot capture are off by default, per-user, and the server refuses captures for any account that hasn't switched them on. The full picture is on the [Monitoring page](/croncrunch/monitoring).
