ManicTime is a comprehensive utility that offers you a comprehensive set of tools and features for PC usage monitoring and statistics generation. With its automatic tracking and accurate timekeeping capabilities, the aforementioned utility is especially useful in business or office-orientated environments, where employee productivity is of the utmost importance.

That said, as a project leader or any other such position, you might be interested in finding a solution for managing, organizing and sharing ManicTime projects. If that's the case, look no further than ManicTime Server.

Just like ManicTime, ManicTime Server also requires a local database in order to run. Fortunately, the app's intuitive, wizard-based setup smoothly guides you through all the necessary steps. You have three databases choices, namely SQLite, PostgreSQL, and Microsoft SQL Server.

Subsequently, you will be prompted to configure the Windows Firewall to allow connections on a ManicTime's specific port, and you will also be required to choose an authentication method. At this point, now that the server is up and running, you should be able to tell that ManicTime Server makes use of a web-based UI.

All that's left to do now is configure it according to your needs, and the comprehensive documentation section will surely come in handy, especially if it's the first time you're attempting this procedure. Basically, you will have to check if the machines with ManicTime installed can connect to the server.

Within the Administration section (accessible from the upper right side of the web-based UI), you can configure the server's general, user management features, and report-related data. You can configure simple things like the server's URL, the date and time formats, the worktime limits, email details, or handle more advanced tasks like creating a team or configure the user permission status.
