Time tracking software development is nowadays a basic prerequisite for any company that wants to assert itself on the market. The fact that digital technologies are now a must for the big players as well as small and medium-sized enterprises, definitely changed customers’ and other stakeholders’ expectations on businesses. Such companies that aim to stay in business long-term have to meet these new expectations and demands – by means of digital strategies and digital products. Analogue structures will still exist in the future, yet not in every industry and area of life.
This concerns areas like time tracking software development and payroll accounting, too. Until now, these required filling out time sheets manually, being signed by the project’s supervisor, as well as many further interim stages involving the employer and their client. Such a process for payroll accounting, expense, and time tracking costs time, money, and nerves. The new Zytrack app and software provides a comprehensive solution, being a modern time tracking system for Switzerland. The latter has successfully been conceptualized and realized by Dinnova – see for yourself: zytrack.ch.

Website Conception:
Timely And Content-Related Planning
In a first step, our team of professional developers and designers defined the project’s main goals. These included the strategy and conception of Zytrack SaaS (Software as a Service) as well as the sales funnel, logo design, and the development of the time tracking software and Zytrack app.
In the course of the entire project, we put great stress on customer proximity. This way, we make sure to involve them in the whole process, provide information continuously, and create interim and final project results that satisfy their needs and expectations 100%.
Project schedule: Our team took over the entire project, including the time tracking software development, application, website development, logo design, sales funnel design, as well as the innovative solution’s marketing. We assigned tasks according to our team’s qualifications and capacity in order to meet the project deadline. By means of regular team meetings and meetings with the client, we ensured the immediate implementation of their feedback and wishes that arose in the process.
Idea generation & design: as with many other projects, too, our designers created a style guide introducing fonts, icons and further elements. Yet, they primarily stuck to the application’s and the software’s layout when designing the website concept, in order to keep up a consistent look. The website’s content is based on the sales funnel layout, which has been created by our inhouse content specialists.
We complemented them with app screen images to illustrate the Zytrack app’s functionalities and structure. Furthermore, our designers have integrated icons, buttons, accordions and lists to create a well-structured and dynamic online presence. Just like the website, the Zytrack app and software have a clean design, their navigation is intuitive and easy to use. Important areas like ‘working hours’, ‘break time’, ‘project’ etc. are being highlighted by color-coded bars, whilst light grey words accentuate the input fields. Also, we did integrate corresponding icons to start and stop time tracking.
Functions: The time tracking software development behind the Zytrack app and software enables employees to track their break time, absences, working hours, and vacation down to the exact minute. Employers and their clients can review this information immediately, as the innovative time tracking system synchronizes all data in real-time. With this functionality, the system generates accurate project reports, invoices, and pay slips—eliminating the need for manual data entry. This not only streamlines work processes but also saves valuable time. Mistakes caused by manual data entry are now a thing of the past—thanks to Zytrack.
Challenges: From a design perspective, the biggest challenge in the time tracking software development project was highlighting central elements like CTA-buttons (Call-to-Action). This was particularly important for the website, as the product required detailed explanations and additional information, resulting in a content-rich platform. To address this, our designers created bright orange CTA-buttons: this carefully selected color ensured these key website elements stood out, guiding potential clients to access a free test version of the time tracking app.
Following this, our programmers and designers developed a site for different subscription plans that introduced them and that enabled their configuration. We have met the listed challenges successfully – in spite of the immense development efforts that the Zytrack app, software and website required. The result is more than satisfactory – and will give your company a decisive edge over your competitors who still stick to the paper routine and might even enter incorrect data now and then. The Zytrack time tracking system on the other hand:
- enables paper-free time tracking and automatic payroll accounting
- is transparent
- creates reports that are exact to the minute
- includes a reminder
- provides a chat function
- is available for iOS und Android
- can be tailored to your needs and requirements.
