Timeneye vs Papertrail

The product was renamed from Timeneye to Lucen Track in May as its parent rebranded to Lucen Software, and as of August it sits behind a shared login across the Lucen suite with a redesigned interface. Underneath the rebrand, the last four months added time off tracking with approvals and holidays, global non-billable phases and tags, Enterprise custom fields across every object, and an MCP server that lets AI assistants read and write time entries. Shipping cadence is roughly twice a month with real features each time.

Two things are happening at once. The visible one is consolidation — one login, one Entra app, one design language across Lucen products, which is what a company assembling a suite does before it starts cross-selling. The less visible one is that Track keeps absorbing the work that used to happen around the timesheet: absence requests, billability rules, business-specific fields, and now programmatic access. Each addition makes Track the place the billing data is finished rather than a feed into something else.

The unified login and the suite framing point to cross-product features next — shared reporting or a single admin surface across Lucen products — with the Enterprise plan continuing to absorb the newest capabilities as custom fields did.
