Hubstaff + Slack

Send Slack notifications when team members start tracking time in Hubstaff

Want your team to be notified when a team member starts working? Let Slack automatically notify team members in any specified channel when someone starts their timer. This eliminates the need for the team member to check-in, so they can dive straight into their work. Their colleagues will know that they are working and even what to-do or task they are working on.
