Time Management

Toggl(without an "e"): Free and "So simple, you'll actually use it!". If you're a freelancer, a one person design shop or even a small team, a lot of time management software tries to cover so many needs that it becomes impossible to use. Toggl does exactly what it says using an intuitive interface, reports, teams & group organization for each project(should you need it) and many other expandable features that do not interfere with it's simplicity. You can get the hang of it after just one use!

Invoicing

Siwopp: Free and simple to use. Lets you keep track of one time and recurring invoices. Print, generate PDF, or send invoice by email.
