Best Time Tracking Software (2026): Top 9 Compared

Toggl Track is the time tracking product from Toggl, which now sells it on a single pricing page alongside project planning and capacity tools. People can track time with a live timer or enter it manually, from the web app, desktop and mobile apps or a browser extension, and the product page lists more than 100 integrations, including Jira, Salesforce and Asana, plus a public API.

The calendar view is the product's most prominent feature. It connects Google and Outlook calendars so that meetings and blocked time can be turned into time entries without retyping them. Background tracking can record app and website use, but the product page states that this activity remains private to the person unless they convert it into entries for reporting.

The plans step up from personal tracking to team finance. Free covers timers, focus mode, simple task planning, calendar integrations and individual reports. Starter adds billable rates, team reports, timeline views, tags, milestones and basic capacity settings such as public holidays and paid time off. Premium adds labour cost and profitability reports, fixed-fee projects, project dashboards comparing actual time with estimates, timesheet approvals, Jira and Asana integrations and single sign-on.

Two paid add-ons cover leave management and capacity forecasting.

Clockify is a time tracker and timesheet app from CAKE.com, which also makes the Plaky project management and Pumble team chat products. Its site describes it as used by more than seven million people.

Time can be recorded with a timer, a weekly timesheet, a calendar view, an auto tracker that records apps and websites, or a clock-in kiosk on a shared device. Reports break tracked time down by project, client and person, and rates turn hours into earnings, cost and profit.

The pricing ladder is fine-grained. Basic adds administration tools such as adding time for others, required fields, bulk edit, the kiosk, time audit and project templates. Standard adds time off, invoicing and recurring invoices, timesheet approval, locked timesheets, attendance and overtime reports, reminders, a manager role, rounding and QuickBooks integration. Pro adds activity monitoring, scheduling and forecasting, expenses, labour cost and profit, budgets and estimates, custom fields, multiple currencies, GPS tracking, kiosk photo capture and a choice of data region in the EU, UK, US or Australia. Enterprise adds single sign-on, custom subdomains, SCIM provisioning, audit logs and the ability for administrators to log in as users for troubleshooting.

For shift workers who only clock in, Clockify sells limited kiosk seats at a fraction of the full seat price.

Harvest is time tracking and invoicing software for client-service businesses. Harvest Forecast, a companion product, handles team scheduling.

Staff record time against clients, projects and tasks from the web, desktop and mobile apps, or from inside tools such as Asana and Slack. Expenses are tracked alongside time. Reports show where hours went by client, project, task and person, and the Teams plan adds capacity tracking so managers can see who is over- or under-booked.

Billing is the reason many firms look at Harvest. Tracked time and expenses become invoices, which clients can pay online through Stripe, and invoices and payments sync with QuickBooks Online and Xero. Deel is also listed among the accounting and payment integrations.

Teams and Enterprise have a base per-seat rate that covers core features, and additional invoices, projects, clients and tasks are billed on usage as the account grows. Enterprise adds unlimited custom reports, profitability reporting by client, project, task and team, timesheet approvals, an activity log of time entry changes, required notes on entries and SAML single sign-on.

Hubstaff is time tracking and workforce analytics software, and its pricing page states that it is used by 140,000 people globally. Its product menu groups features into time tracking, productivity monitoring, workforce analytics and global payments, and its solutions pages address remote, hybrid, on-site and field teams as well as BPOs, virtual assistant services and call centres.

Time tracking covers automated timesheets, project and task tracking, attendance and shift tracking, time off and GPS job sites that clock people in and out automatically. Monitoring features are what distinguish Hubstaff from timer-first tools: activity levels based on keyboard and mouse use, optional screenshots, idle time detection and app and URL usage.

Tracked hours then feed money workflows: project cost budgets, invoices to clients, overtime rules and payments to team members through integrations such as Wise, PayPal, Gusto and Deel.

The plans step up from Starter, with time tracking, timesheets, limited reports and activity levels, to Grow, which adds full reports, one integration and the Tasks add-on, and Team, which adds unlimited screenshots and app and URL tracking, scheduling, expenses, daily limits and unlimited integrations. Enterprise includes the Silent app, Locations, Insights and Tasks add-ons and adds HIPAA compliance, higher public API limits and ACH payment.

TimeCamp is time tracking software sold on a four-step paid ladder above a free plan, with an Enterprise edition for larger organisations.

The free plan allows unlimited users and projects and includes timesheets, web, desktop and mobile apps and two-factor authentication. Time can be recorded manually, with a timer, or automatically, and an AI Time Tracker suggests time entries from activity; that feature is billed separately on token usage.

Starter adds attendance, a time-off calendar, overtime tracking, invoicing, Excel export, unlimited tasks, bulk edit, adding time for others and project templates. Premium adds a resource planner, billable time, budgets and estimates with alerts, app and website tracking, private time, management roles, scheduled email reports, time rounding and one integration. Ultimate adds data export, custom fields, remote work detection, timesheet approvals, billing rates, expenses, pivot table reports, unusual activity detection, screenshots, labour costs, fixed-fee projects, SSO and unlimited integrations.

Enterprise is quoted on request and adds custom activity categories, self-hosted or private cloud hosting, custom integrations, directory sync and BigQuery and Power BI connections.

Everhour is time tracking software built to run inside project management tools. Its site lists Asana, ClickUp, Basecamp, Jira, monday.com, GitHub, Trello, Linear and Notion among more than 40 integrations, and the integration places a timer and estimate fields directly on tasks in those tools, so people track time without switching to a separate app.

Beyond the timer, Everhour covers project budgets with alerts when a budget is at risk, estimate-versus-actual and profitability reports, hourly rates and invoicing from tracked time, expenses, time off, workload scheduling and shift scheduling. Its site emphasises that time data is stored in Everhour rather than in custom fields of the project tool, so history stays intact if the team switches tools or removes users.

The pricing model is deliberately simple. A free plan covers basic time tracking, projects, tasks, reports and export for up to five seats, without integrations. The single paid Team plan includes every feature, with unlimited seats subject to a five-seat minimum, and a Custom tier adds volume discounts, a dedicated manager and priority support for 50 seats or more.

Timely is automatic time tracking software for consultancies, agencies and SaaS businesses, now operating from the timely.com domain. Its site states that it is used by more than 5,000 businesses and positions the product around three steps: capturing work automatically, allocating it to the right project with AI, and approving the timesheet in one click.

Rather than asking people to start and stop timers, Timely records time spent in apps and websites in the background and drafts time entries from it, which people review and approve rather than build from memory. The site describes this as privacy-first and lists SSO, permissions and ISO 27001 compliance for IT teams.

Starter includes automatic tracking, AI categorisation, project health monitoring, billable hour reporting and API access for up to five users. Premium adds project management tool sync, accounting integrations, team management, budget and cost tracking and team planning for up to 50 users. Unlimited removes the user cap and adds capacity management and reporting, overtime and undertime tracking, Azure user management, more than 50 currencies and premium customer success.

Memtime is an automatic time tracker built around privacy. It runs in the background on the computer, records time spent in programs, and displays the day as a timeline so the user can recall what they worked on. The company states that activity data is stored offline on the device only, and that it is the only automatic tracker to guarantee this.

The working model is a two-step one. Memtime remembers the day automatically, and the user then assigns blocks of time to projects and tasks, which the site says takes seconds. Logged entries can be exported to the team's project or accounting software, which keeps the shared record limited to what each person chooses to submit.

The plans are organised by where the logged time needs to go. Basic suits freelancers and small teams that do not use project software, and includes automatic and offline tracking, calendar integrations, unlimited custom reports and built-in project management. Connect adds more than 100 integrations and sync with project software. Premium adds integrations with phone systems for call tracking, SSO with Entra ID, SAML and SCIM, premium integrations and priority support. Enterprise is offered to teams of 50 seats or more with a team trial, onboarding and custom integrations.

ClickTime is time tracking software aimed at finance and operations teams in mid-market and enterprise organisations. Its pricing page describes four plans and custom pricing for organisations with more than 1,000 employees, and its site addresses three audiences: organisations with technical teams, professional services firms and nonprofits.

The product's focus is clean labour data. Instead of only logging hours, ClickTime classifies time at entry into categories such as billable, capital expenditure or research and development, and runs it through approval workflows so finance receives data that does not need re-categorising. Work activity from Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, calendars, Jira, GitHub and Zoom can flow in automatically, and ClickTime AI suggests the matching project and cost code for the employee to confirm.

Starter covers web and mobile timesheets, more than 70 reports and email reminders. Team adds automated tracking with AI mapping, approvals, cost rates, work types and time off. Premier adds project budgeting, resource management and custom reports and dashboards. Enterprise adds custom integrations with the organisation's ERP, advanced security and dedicated onboarding.
