What are the programs for recording the time of work of a remote programmer?
What programs do you use to calculate working hours?
We need a program so that the customer can check how long the programmer actually worked.
I use WakaTime but this is for personal statistics.
Right now I found the monitask program, but I would like to see more options.

I work in a company where about 50 employees are remote workers. Time tracking is based on Jira - the time is set by the programmer himself. Accounting goes like this:
A finished task arrives
A review code is
in progress The reviewer checks the adequacy of the time estimate
If there are questions, then it is specified what the difficulty was
In 3 years, only one developer was fired, who "fell into the desert of sadness and sorrow", and just two weeks nothing did.

It’s better to have one lead (senior) who will check the adequacy of time estimates and accept tasks, rather than arrange masturbation with screencasts, type-timers, and so on (you also need to spend time checking all this). You also need the tasks to be completed, and not to measure how much the programmer worked, how much he dined, how many photos the chan watched, and how much he went to take a shit.
Any screenshots. Everything else is unreliable.
I can recommend TimeDoctor. Monitors keyboard and mouse activity and takes screenshots. You can manually delete the screenshot yourself, you can also manually add the time.
Toggl does not take screenshots, but the customer can see the statistics of each work.
Been using https://wakatime.com/ for a long time . But this program adds a lot of time. Now, I'm thinking of switching to timelyapp.com . I also used https://www.rescuetime.com .
For freelancers, we use the Tahometer time tracker with screenshots every 10 minutes + it is possible to add offline work time (for example, it is convenient for Skype calls)
at a price much more profitable than analogues of a time doctor or a Java tracker.
