Fanurio

Fanurio, developed by Fanurio Time Tracking SRL, is a versatile time tracking and billing software application designed primarily for freelancers. The latest version, Fanurio 3.3.1, comes with various improvements and bug fixes that make it an efficient tool for managing work time and invoices.

This business program, which falls under the finances subcategory, allows users to organize work, expenses, trips, and products into projects, facilitating a structured workflow. Fanurio supports a wide range of operating systems, including Windows XP, 7, 8, 10, and 11. This ensures that a broad audience can access its features regardless of their preferred OS.

One of Fanurio's core features is its ability to let users manage their work time and invoices with ease. This is particularly beneficial for freelancers who must maintain a good work rhythm and ensure timely payments. The software lets you organize your work by client and projects. Users can set billing rates for each project, track work time, and even mark internal projects as non-billable.

Another significant advantage is Fanurio's customizable templates for invoices. The default templates include columns for billing, rate, or time, and these can be rearranged or added to according to user preferences. While the interface is user-friendly, it does lack a proper startup guide, which might make the initial setup challenging for some users. However, the list view feature on the left side of the interface aids in navigating and organizing clients, projects, and invoices efficiently.

Despite its strengths, there have been some stability issues, particularly with how Fanurio closes on Windows and Linux (Gnome), sometimes resulting in corrupted databases. These issues have been addressed in the latest updates, which include bug fixes such as making drop-down lists visible on Mac OS X when using the mini timer and ensuring new service items employ the correct project billing settings from the "Select Service" dialog.

For those interested, Fanurio is available under a shareware license, and you can download versions 3.3, 3.2, and 3.1 if needed. The installation files are named fanurio.exe, and Time stopper.exe.

Pros:

• Organizes work by client and project.
• Customizable invoice templates.
• Wide OS compatibility.
• Useful for tracking time and billing.

Cons:

• Occasional stability issues on specific operating systems.
• Lacks a comprehensive startup guide.

Overall, Fanurio provides a straightforward and no-fuss solution for serious freelancers seeking to manage their clients, projects, and invoices effectively. It’s a free trial for those looking to explore its functionalities before committing to a purchase.
