“The straightforward interface made daily tracking simple, and the reporting features were useful for reviewing productivity and workload distribution. While some advanced functionality requires a paid plan, Clockify worked well for core time tracking and was especially effective for teams or individuals looking for a practical, no‑frills solution.“

### "Simple, affordable, and effective time tracking tool"

December 22, 2025

4.0

I started using Clockify because the agency I was collaborating with used it, and it turned out to be a great discovery. Now I also use Clockify for my own personal and work projects to track my time.

Pros

The best thing about Clockify is the price. It’s cheaper than other tools if you want to upgrade your billing plan or your team grows. If you work remotely with other people, it’s a great way to track time, see where you’re spending most of it, and spot opportunities to be more productive. It’s also very easy to use and you can quickly create projects and track tasks without much setup.

Cons

The interface isn’t as polished or visually appealing as some other time-tracking tools I’ve tried. It’s quite simple, effective, but not very customizable. You can’t personalize reports that much, but it’s not a big issue overall.

Alternatives considered

Reason for choosing Clockify

Mostly because price. I work with different people, so I can add them as a user easily.

### "Clockify is the Consultant's Best Tool"

December 30, 2025

5.0

I would 100% recommend Clockify from a small business or consultant that needs to track billable hours on projects. Even at the Free level, it offers Unlimited tracking, users, projects and reports. That is pretty amazing for a free level tool.

Pros

Clockify is super easy to set up. I needed to provide detailed project time tracking for a client. I did a little research and found Clockify. Within 30 minutes I had my account set up and my client projects configured. I was able to quickly and easily generate timesheets for the client.

Cons

I really would have liked to be able to integrate the Clockify time tracking with something like Wave: Small Business Software for invoicing. That would have simplified my invoicing process and allowed for better tracking.

### "Count me in on Clockify"

April 30, 2026

5.0

I really enjoyed using Clockify. It didn't take long to install, and it was immensely helpful in managing workflow.

Pros

Clockify is eye opening when it comes to efficiency and task management. It was easy to use and wonderfully helpful.

Cons

A little on the pricey side, that would be the only negative I took away from my experience with Clockify.

### "Customer Service and Features Lacking"

December 8, 2025

2.0

Customer service was lacking and became a pain to deal with, especially in terms of cancelling and being charged/billed.

Pros

Not much, to be honest. We attempted to use it for a while in order to track projects but it never quite did what we needed it to do.

Cons

As a nonprofit, we needed some very specific features that Clockify did not have and the existing features didn't quite meet our needs either.

### "Easy to use and perfect for recording time on projects. "

January 25, 2026

5.0

My overall experience with Clockify was a positive one, and it provided the time data we required and presented the information in a clear and concise way to ensure we could analyse the data to interpret what it meant for our tech audit. It was a useful tool and led to a successful project.

Pros

We recently used Clockify to obtain data about where team members are spending large amounts of their time in order to make tech improvements and efficiencies. It is easy to use and customisable so you can create as many time recording categories as you wish, and also colour co-ordinate them for ease of use. It provides automated reports to collate the data. It was the best value for money we could find to achieve what we required. Other teams were interested in using it to track time spend on specific projects to help with billing and project collaboration amongst team members.

Cons

Occasionally it was difficult to make a manual adjustment to a time record, say if you left it running, but I think this was a small bug and you could fix this by deleting and manually enter the time record. I didn't use their customer service, but I suspect they could of resolved this, as other users did not experience this issue.

### "The Time Tacking and Project Management Solution for companies with little time to spare"

September 18, 2025

5.0

Overall experience is extremely positive, we have been using the platform for over 3 years now and have not found another tool that comes close for functionality per dollar spent.

Pros

All the required functionality is built in from Time Tracking to Project Budgeting and Billing, Tracking actuals vs budget, Invoicing, Project performance management. The platform itself is very easy to setup, manage and use, which for our company was key. Also comes with straightforward though completely usable time off and expense tracking functionality. The time tracking plugins are awesome especially for busy teams that would rather spend time building functionality than recording their time. The customer support provided by Cake team is top notch. Given the price for comparable tools in the market, which may come with more functionality, however given our requirements Clockify was the perfect fit for our needs.

Cons

One of the areas that needs further improvement is approvals, both for time and time off requests as well as for expenses. Need the ability to route the approval to either a Team Manager or Project Manager (should be configurable when setting up the project). Also users should not be able to self approve time and time off requests.

Alternatives considered

[ClickUp](https://www.capterra.com/p/158833/ClickUp/)

Reason for choosing Clockify

We already used ClickUp and one thought was to use the Time tracking capability built in however Clockify was far superior than the functionality available in ClickUp.

Tracking time and expense manually in Excel and then trying to make sense of it for customer billing was turning into a nightmare.

### "Best free time tracking tool for teams"

January 15, 2026

4.0

I have been using Clockify for years, and I have not experienced any bugs. I am still using the free version, and I am really happy with what they provide.

Pros

I think Clockify is the most simple time tracking tool that is available for free. It has all the functionalities that I need.

Cons

The UI looks a bit old school, and it lacks some of the modern time tracking functionalities of other platforms like Toggl.

Alternatives considered

[Toggl Track](https://www.capterra.com/p/247745/Toggl/)

Reason for choosing Clockify

The free version of Clockify has all the features that I need, and Toggl seems to be a bit too complex and too overpriced for the features that it offers.

### "Clockify Review!! "

August 12, 2025

5.0

We love it! We transitioned from paper timesheets to digital and even through the transition, the guys have found it easy to navigate for the most part. We love how customizable it is as well!

Pros

We love using clockify as a team that transitioned from paper timesheets to digital, it's been great!

Cons

I wish it were a little easier to use for people that aren't technologically advanced as we do have some older individuals at our office.

### "Simple and Effective Time Tracking"

October 8, 2025

5.0

Love the simplicity of this app and it makes it easy to track on desktop or mobile and sort out the time punches later so you have minimal workflow interruptions.

Pros

Fantastic value for money and simplicity of this software makes me keep coming back to it to use again and again. It's not as burdensome as other time trackers and doesn't require 5-6 clicks to just get a timer going like others do. It fits my workflow like a glove. Also - offline time tracking - so important.

Cons

The last time I used it, it was lacking in integrations with other softwares. If there is a notion integration that would be appreciated.

### "Ideal for managing projects "

November 30, 2025

4.0

Very positive as a project manager - enables to be to review where staff resource is being spent on and where there are issues with efficiency

Pros

The admin set up enables you to clearly set your allocated per project and you then get timely reminder when you reach 50% capacity up until full capacity - great for project management

Cons

When you Clockify retrospectively, it can sometimes be fiddly to select the correct project, date, time etc. - can lead to manual error

### "Clockify Review"

February 17, 2026

4.0

Overall it is okay, it is free, I used it for about 2 years. I never had a need to go to the paid version.

Pros

It is free, it clocks your time. It is simple to create projects and tasks and you can see how the tasks make up a project in a report.

Cons

What I liked the least and what caused me to switch to Jibble was that it did not update my time immediately when I was organizing my time entries by task and adding up my hours in the project report. It just was very inaccurate, I can't have that for my billed time.

### "ClickUp brings all project tracking, invoicing, and automation together."

November 18, 2025

5.0

Clockify helped the International Journal of Nursing and Health Services keep accurate billing and organized project hours, saving us time on admin and allowing us to focus more on publishing quality content.

Pros

It makes logging editorial hours and tracking tasks simple and cost-effective for our small journal team. Its project and collaboration features let us coordinate work across articles, billing, and admin-with options to automate so that we spend less time manually tracking time.

Cons

AWe have encountered the odd bug with syncing time entries and reports, and customer support can be slow regarding billing or payment issues. Advanced automation setups can take a while to learn and might require more support if you have smaller teams.

### "Perfect for time recording and allocation "

October 11, 2025

5.0

I use Clockify every day to record and allocate my working time to client activity. I use it to associate time with specific projects and record project activity.

Pros

I use Clockify free to record all of my consulting time for customers, in order to charge for hours worked, and I have to say this is one product where I don’t NEED to upgrade to access features, but I feel I will anyway, because the developers DESERVE the payment. The product is slick, works well for reporting, simple to run reports with all the detail needed, tag support. If you need to record and allocate time, then Clockify does the job perfectly.

Cons

I don’t like that I can find a way to edit seconds on manually entered time entries. This is such. Minor issue that’s it’s almost a none issue, but that would be the only thing.

### "Time saving, deadline adapting, and great value for money "

October 15, 2025

5.0

My experience with Clockify was fab! Made a big difference to how we manage our time in the workplace. It tracks time but in the long run, saves time too.

Pros

Brilliant software for tracking the amount of time employees use for jobs so that we can ensure the right amount of time is being offered to them in the future. This means less burnout for employees and deadlines being met consistently. The free plan is also great - we never felt a pressure to upgrade for a good service.

Cons

There's no auto-scheduling or shift swaps and no ready-made reports available. It's also limited in terms of task and project management, though it can be integrated with other softwares that do this.

February 8, 2025

5.0

Clockify is an excellent time-tracking solution for individuals, freelancers, and businesses looking for a cost-effective and efficient way to track work hours. Its free plan makes it a standout choice, while its premium features offer even more flexibility for larger teams.

Pros

Clockify offers a simple timer that allows users to track work hours manually or automatically with just one click.

Cons

Integrations with other tools may require additional setup

### "Good, but could be better"

March 23, 2026

4.0

Overall, Clockify is okay. I like to use it because I don't know of any other apps that do what it does, I haven't really researched it but I would probably recommend to find something else before using this app.

Pros

I like that it calculates the hours for you and you can even put in tentative hours for future days to see what your week looks like as a whole.

Cons

I do not like that it has a lot of internet issues. It will have a spinning wheel of death for a couple minutes before it opens and works. I still don't like that it's outdated for iPhone.

### "Low cost way to track hours"

July 9, 2025

4.0

This has been my go-to app for tracking hours for projects. The low cost is a plus for those just starting out.

Pros

I love that Clockify offers a low-cost way for me to track hours on projects and provides reports so I can easily see the time allocation at a glance.

Cons

The app gets a bit more complicated when you're trying to track hours for multiple unrelated clients.

### "Excellent time tracker at a realistic price."

January 13, 2025

5.0

User friendly, very quick access via the Google extension, almost zero learning curve as intuative. Reasonably priced and suited me better than some of the alternatives. The reporting is in depth and certainly goes to the level I need (B2b marketer). So all in all, tracking time made simple.

Pros

So easy to use and you can select client, project and task options so keeps everything very simple. Adding the Clockify to the browser bar using the extension means its all but a click away so if youre like me and jumping from one task to another (regardless of start of the day intentions) then this really helps keep track of where tike is spent and for whom.

Cons

Two things, one, sometimes if its left running then i need to manually find errors and resolve. And two, the trial was, understandably, a little limiting so I felt I had to purchase the full version to really see if I'd keep using it. It is 'forever free' though so if a little functionality is needed then brilliant. Other than that it pretty much does what youd expect.

December 27, 2025

4.0

Really good, simple and easy to use. Great tracking for multiple jobs and great to be able to track total time for jobs.

Pros

Timesheets are very clear and easy to use. The live tracker also makes keeping on top of time spent very simple.

Cons

As I only use it for timesheets there isn’t much to not like. Simple to input jobs and does what I need it to do.

### "An easy habit for clocking hours"

April 18, 2025

5.0

Back in my part-time days, I had to use clockify daily for reporting my hours. After going full-time I continued to use it out of habit. I eventually got to the point where my hours far exceeded 40, and I used the clockify data to ask for a raise. Success!

Pros

Clockify is extremely easy to use on both the phone app and a computer. I have it set as one of my browser tabs that opens automatically. Clocking in is easy. Then I clock out right before closing all the tabs at the end of the day.

Cons

My office mates wish they could print two weeks on a report, for their time card reporting for each pay period.

July 29, 2025

Overall experience was very positive. I reccomend for someone wanting to track time for work or side hustle.

Pros

Easy and simple to use. Was able to track my time on it with a clear stop and start time. Was also able to export my time as well.

Cons

Not a lot of other benefits that I found/were able to use. I mostly just used it to track my time and was able to do so.

April 13, 2025

5.0

My overall experience has been pretty good, it works fine, easy to use and its free.

Pros

It is a very user friendly platform. It is easy to understand how to start registering the time spent on different tasks during your shift. You can add as much records as needed and make modifications if needed. It is nice to have a google chrome extension to make the process faster.

Cons

Would be nice to have a undo option because sometimes by mistake registers can be deleted and cannot be recovered and you must remember the start and end time to add it manually.

Pros

Clockify was easy to start tracking time on different tasks without juggling multiple tools. Keeping a log of where my hours went during the workday was pretty easy with projects and quick switching of timers.

Cons

When I work in tracked time, reports don’t update instantaneously which means I get stuck reviewing my data.

### "Great software, but does not work for us"

April 9, 2025

3.0

Clockify is a good software, however it was not suited well to our company due to users not always tracking their time. This creates discrepency and also there doe not seem to be a way to integrate clockify to our HR system. This creates a lot of manual work needed to be done.

Pros

Clockify is fairly easy to setup and use. It can be a useful piece of information to track time.

Cons

Clockify does repeatedly send various emails reminding users to track time even when they are off work.

Hi Sannah, Thank you for the review and feedback! I'm sorry to hear that your users are not tracking their time often, we suggest the reminder feature for this case. For the HR system integration, please send us the details on our feature request form so it can be forwarded to our product team here: http://clockify.me/feedback Also, in the current design of the reminder feature, if set under the 'Daily' setting, then the reminder email will arrive the next day, however I can see how having the reminder to arrive on the same day (End of Day) can be helpful in this case, I'll be forwarding this to my team as well. I hope this helps! If you have questions or if there's anything else, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at support@clockify.me and we'll be more than happy to help! Cheers!
