Why we picked it

Toggl Track keeps tracking low-friction with one-click timers.

Also considered

Jibble: Free for unlimited users; paid tiers not shown, so rates, budgets and invoicing scored no by default.
Connecteam: Free for up to 10 users, but a shift and time-clock tool without billable rates, budgets or invoicing.
Paymo: Project-management suite; Plus is $15.90/user/mo after the intro period, and approvals and leave need Pro.
Time Doctor: Per-user prices showed as unfilled placeholders on 20 Oct 2026, so we could not score value.
Homebase: Free up to 10 employees, but built for hourly shift scheduling; approvals and PTO controls not on Essentials.

What's not included and why

We also read the pricing pages for four more trackers and left them out. DeskTime focuses on employee monitoring and lists no timesheets or billable time; its Pro plan is $6.42/user/mo billed annually. actiTIME is $6/user/mo billed yearly, but its plan-level features did not render, so we could not confirm most checklist items.

ClickTime publishes only a Starter price from $12/user/mo, with Team and Premier unpriced, and Tick's pricing page blocked our reader, so its plan prices were not readable. Enterprise-first tools such as Replicon were not evaluated for this small-team list.

How to choose

Decide first whether you need a project tracker for billable work (Clockify, Harvest, My Hours, Everhour, TimeCamp) or a time clock for hourly staff (Buddy Punch, QuickBooks Time).

If you bill clients, check that billable rates and invoicing sit on the plan you will buy, such as Clockify Standard or Harvest Teams, not only on a higher tier.

Check where timesheet approvals start. Several tools hold them for upper plans: TimeCamp Ultimate, Harvest Enterprise and Toggl Track Premium.

Price five seats, not one. Add base fees (Buddy Punch $19/mo, QuickBooks Time $20/mo) and compare monthly with annual billing.

Agree your stance on monitoring before you buy. Hubstaff lists activity levels, TimeCamp Ultimate adds screenshots, and Toggl Track says it does no screenshot or keystroke monitoring.

List the accounting and project tools you must connect. Everhour needs a paid plan for integrations, and TimeCamp Premium allows one.

Read the free-plan limits closely: Clockify caps reports at one month of data, Harvest allows 1 seat and 2 projects, and Toggl Track allows a small number of users.

Questions buyers ask

What is the best time tracking software for small teams?

On our research rubric, Clockify ranks first at 8.6/10. Its Standard plan adds timesheet approvals, invoicing, time off and QuickBooks for $6.99/seat/mo, or $34.95/mo for five users, below the $48.95 edition median. TimeCamp (8.4/10) suits teams that want automatic tracking on a free plan for unlimited users, and My Hours (7.9/10) suits agencies that need budgets and approvals. Scores come from vendor pages read 20 Oct 2026, not testing.

Is there free time tracking software for teams?

Yes. From the vendors' pricing pages: Clockify's free plan covers up to 5 users with unlimited tracking but one month of reports; TimeCamp's free plan covers unlimited users and projects; My Hours is free for up to 5 active users; Everhour is free for up to 5 seats without integrations; Harvest's free plan allows 1 seat and 2 projects; and Toggl Track's free plan allows a small number of users.

How much does time tracking software cost for a team of five?

The tools we priced cost a median of $48.95/mo for five users. At the low end, Clockify Standard is $34.95/mo billed monthly and Hubstaff Grow is $37.50/mo billed annually. QuickBooks Time Premium is $70/mo ($20 base plus $10 per user) and needs a QuickBooks Online subscription on top. All prices were verified on vendor pages on 20 Oct 2026 and exclude tax.

Which time trackers include invoicing?

From vendor pages, Clockify Standard, Harvest Teams, Everhour Team and Hubstaff Grow include invoicing, and TimeCamp lists invoicing from its Starter plan. QuickBooks Time syncs time to QuickBooks for payroll and invoicing. My Hours lists invoicing without naming the tier. Toggl Track, Timely Starter and Buddy Punch do not list invoicing for the plans we scored, so you would export time to your billing tool.

Which tools let managers approve timesheets on a low-cost plan?

Clockify Standard ($6.99/seat/mo), My Hours Pro ($9/user/mo), Buddy Punch Starter and QuickBooks Time Premium include approvals, per their pricing pages. Approvals sit on higher tiers elsewhere: TimeCamp Ultimate at $13.99/user/mo, Harvest Enterprise at $17.50/seat/mo and Toggl Track Premium at $24/user/mo. For Hubstaff and Everhour, the pages we read did not tie approvals to a plan, so confirm with the vendor.

What is the difference between a time tracker and a time clock?

A project time tracker records hours against clients and projects so you can bill, budget and report on profitability; Clockify, Harvest and My Hours work this way. A time clock records when hourly staff punch in and out, often with GPS, PTO and overtime, and feeds payroll; Buddy Punch and QuickBooks Time work this way. Pick the model that matches how you pay people or bill clients.

Did Startup Helms test these time tracking tools?

Not yet. Every entry on this page is marked Researched (not tested). We scored each tool from its public pricing, feature and help pages read on 20 Oct 2026, using published weights. Where a vendor page did not state a checklist feature for the reference plan, we scored it no and say so in the entry. Testing on real accounts is scheduled, and we will log any re-rank under What changed.
