### Cost breakdown​​​

Clockify is known for being flexible regarding pricing options. It offers a free plan and four paid plans that users can upgrade to. There is also a bundle known as the Productivity Suite for larger enterprises. For those seeking a free employee scheduling software option, users are happy with this plan's robust functionality—which could make it a good choice for very small businesses or freelancers. 

Clockify is very transparent about pricing. It offers detailed feature lists with options starting at $3.99 per seat per month when billed annually ($4.99 per seat per month when billed monthly).​​​

### Starting price 

All plans can be billed monthly or annually, allowing users to choose if they want to pay a one-time annual fee for a discounted rate. ​​

The first option is the **Free plan**, designed specifically for time tracking. This plan is $0 forever, allowing users to access over a dozen features that make time tracking more efficient and accurate. 

For those who want to upgrade to access more fields and features, the **Basic plan** starts at $3.99, per seat, per month when billed annually ($4.99 per seat, per month when billed monthly).

The next upgrade is the **Standard plan**, which starts at $5.49, per seat, per month when billed annually ($6​.99 per seat, per month when billed monthly).​

The **Pro plan** offers more reporting and management features, starting at $7.99, per seat, per month when billed annually ($9​​.99 per seat, per month when billed monthly).

The **Enterprise plan** is the most comprehensive (outside of the bundle package), starting at $11.99, per seat, per month when billed annually ($14.99 per seat, per month when billed monthly).

There is also a **Clockify + cake.com bundle** that includes all Enterprise features plus additional Plumble and Play features. This option allows users to access three tools for one price. When billed annually, this bundle costs $12.99 per seat per month ($15.99 per seat per month when billed monthly).​​

### Billing options

All plans can be purchased monthly or yearly. Rates are charged per user. If you decide to cancel your subscription, you will have access to paid features until the end of the paid period. Once that paid period ends, you'll automatically be downgraded to the free plan. You can then continue to use the features in the Free plan to delete your account within your Clockify account. ​​​​

### ​​Feature differentiation 

All Clockify plans offer different accessibility and features. The highest-priced plans are more extensive, and when taking advantage of the bundle plan, you'll gain access to two other tools. As you move up, opting for a higher-tier plan, you'll get everything included in the plan below it. ​

Clockify is clear about what you get at each plan level, and what each plan has been designed for. For example, the Basic plan is designed for administration, whereas Pro focuses on profit and productivity. Some features across all plans include time tracking, timesheets, projects, reports, and the dashboard. 

Here is how features differ across plans:

-   **Time tracking:** If you have the Free plan, you will gain access to basic time tracking, including a timer, timesheets, a calendar, and tracking integrations. Once you opt for Basic features, you can access more customization options, like required fields, breaks, and split time. As pricing increases, time tracking capabilities become more comprehensive and customizable. The Standard plan adds time tracking features like time off and targets, while the Pro and Enterprise plans offer screenshots, tracking, and more.
    
-   **Management features:** The Free plan allows you to manage unlimited users and projects and import projects. The Basic plan offers project templates, the ability to hide time and pages, and more. Once you hit the Standard plan, you get invoicing features and a customized kiosk. For expense and schedule, you'll need the Pro plan, and Enterprise users have an audit log, control accounts, etc. 
-   **Reporting:** Even with the Free plan, you get many reporting features, including team activity, reports, export and share data, billable rates, project status, etc. You'll need the Basic plan if you want decimal format, customizable exports, historical rates, or time audits. With the Standard tier, you'll have rounding, attendance, and QuickBooks integrations. Pro and Enterprise have nine additional reporting features, ranging from email and expense reports to forecasting and budgeting. 
-   **Kiosk:** The clock-in kiosk allows organizations to track employee hours using a single device in multiple locations. The Free plan offers this feature — but only for a single location. The Clockify kiosk features change for paid plans concerning PIN access, customizability, and the ability to manage multiple kiosks.
    
-   **Integrations:** The Free plan allows you to use tracking integrations. However, you'll need the Standard plan for more specialized integrations, like the QuickBooks integration.

For the functions I need, I wouldn't even have to pay, but I subscribed to the lowest tier because good software needs to be paid so it gets better.

## Total cost of ownership

The upfront costs are based on your chosen plan, so pricing is relatively straightforward. However, there may be other considerations, such as the following. ​

### Upfront costs

When you invest in new software, especially one that is tier-based with increasing upgrades, there are some pricing considerations beyond the initial price tag. Based on your team, will you need to invest in training and the onboarding process? This consideration is essential when factoring in the most advanced features — especially if you opt for the bundle. For example, in the CAKE.com bundle (which includes all the Enterprise features), you'll access Pumble and Plaky. These may require additional considerations concerning team communication and project management skills.

### Additional costs to consider

Unlike some software options, Clockify is very transparent about pricing and advertises that there are "no hidden fees."

On Clockify's pricing page, some additional considerations depend on your plans and needs, including kiosk pricing. When using the kiosk mode, you can add employees by name as limited users. When upgrading, you pay a separate price for them. Limited users can only track time via kiosk. To use the mobile app, you need to add their email and convert them to full users.

**Basic -** $0.79 per limited seat, per month (billed annually or $0.99 billed monthly)

**Standard -** $1.19 per limited seat, per month (billed annually or $1.49 billed monthly)

**Pro -** $1.59 per limited seat, per month (billed annually or $1.99 billed monthly)

**Enterprise -** $2.39 per limited seat, per month (billed annually or $2.99 billed monthly)

**CAKE.com bundle -** $2.39 per limited seat per month (billed annually or $2.99 billed monthly)

There are additional add-ons you can purchase for Clockify to build custom functionality and extend capabilities. These add-ons are purchased from the CAKE Marketplace. Several are designed for Clockify and are free, like Insights, Clockify Clean, and Calendar Public Holidays. For paid add-ons, choose what makes sense for your application and objectives. For example, Better Invoices (for Enterprise users) is $29.99 per month,​​​​ and Google Calendar Sync is $9.99 per month. 

### Services needed to implement or manage the platform

When you first get started with Clockify (or the CAKE.come bundle), there is plenty of support. However, you will need an assigned individual or team to run and manage the software. 

You'll also want to consider the integrations you'll use alongside this software, as you may need to invest in other tools or platforms to achieve your goals. Will you require additional training and support for these integrations? For example, Clockify integrates with 80+ apps, ranging from JIRA and Asana to Gmail and QuickBooks. 

### Internal resources for ongoing platform management

While there may be an initial learning curve, Clockify is relatively straightforward to implement and use. Verified users report that this software has a user-friendly interface, making it relatively easy to use. There are also many internal resources and guides on Clockify's website, which are in their "Clockify Learn" section. 

That said, depending on who you have on your team and your goals, you may need to invest in the following.

-   IT professionals: Having at least one IT expert on your team can ensure everything runs smoothly. If there is an issue, this expert can help you ensure less downtime and protect sensitive data. 
-   Data analyst: To maximize Clockify's reporting features, you may want to invest in a data analyst. As features and technology evolve, you may need to invest in additional training. 

## How to choose the right Clockify pricing plan

Choosing the best Clockify plan for you and your team will depend on several variables. Some features may help boost productivity, while others may not be of any value to you. Choosing the right plan will determine the best plan. ​

_Key considerations while choosing the right Clockify pricing plan_

-   **Evaluate your business needs:** This consideration is the most crucial, as the size of your organization and team matters. Your industry may also affect the features you need. For example, Clockify showcases how this software can support those in manufacturing, retail, healthcare, and other on-site workers. There are also examples of those working in the field, such as those in construction, cleaning, field services, etc. 
-   **Consider your budget:** How much you can spend on Clockify-related features will help determine which plan you select. Many freelancers and small teams find the Free plan sufficient. As you grow, you can decide what features are important and upgrade based on the value they offer. If you do choose a higher-tier plan, you'll want to ensure you use the most features to extract value. 
-   **Check all pricing plan features:** Clockify does a great job listing what is included, helping you decide what plan makes sense. Once you have decided on a plan, look at your current tech stack to ensure you're not investing in overlapping features in other software subscriptions you've committed to. 

## How to maximize the value of your Clockify plan

Many users start with the Free plan. Some do because their operations are small enough that the features within the Free plan are all they need. The paid plans can provide immense value for growing companies or those that want more advanced features. However, to extract that value, users need to take advantage of the features within the plan they commit to. 

Here are some tips to get the most out of your plan, whether you choose a free or paid option.

_Ways to maximize the value of your Clockify subscription_

-   **Use all features:** The depth of features will depend on the plan you select. Some plans offer an extensive list of features — especially when opting for the bundle. Even the Free plan provides all the time tracking features you need for basic operations. So, if you invest in the Pro plan, ensure you need (and will use) the additional features that differentiate that plan from the Standard option. That would be scheduling, forecasting, budgeting, and other profit and productivity features in this case. 
-   **Fully leverage customer support:** Clockify prides itself on the support it offers. Regardless of your plan, even the Free plan, you can access 24/7 support via chat, email, or phone. The difference between free and paid plans is that you don’t get a dedicated success representative with the Free plan. If you have someone in-house you can lean on and don’t need all the bells and whist you may be fine with the Free plan until you require more from the software. 
-   **Organize projects:** Clockify recommends that you create project hierarchies for projects, clients, and tasks. If you have the bandwidth, assign specific tasks to select team members, especially those that are complex or require certain expertise.
    
-   **Use the software as intended:** For example, Clockify recommended using tags for relevant time entries. Getting into this habit will allow for a finer-grained analysis. So, if you have a plan that provides in-depth analytics capabilities, add tags like meeting, billable, research, non-billable, etc. Another example is the favorite feature. If certain tasks are frequently used, favorite them so that they are quick and easy to access when you need to start a timer. 
-   **Use integrations:** If you connect Clockify with other applications you use, such as project management tools, you can instantly streamline workflows, getting the most out of both software options.

Here are some of the reviews to help you better assess the value of Clockify across its users:[\[1\]](#footnotes) 

Phoenix B.Freelance EditorWriting and Editing1-2 years

The invoicing feature, though simple, has probably saved me dozens of hours over the last two years, and it's well worth the minimal cost for the lowest-tier plan. And yes, the price is definitely worth noting as it's very reasonable for the functionality I receive and the number of hours I've saved. When I go through a period of cutting down on bills and subscriptions, Clockify never gets cut.

Brenda K.Strategic PlanningAccounting1-2 years

The upgraded paid version has been worth every penny, particularly for its time rounding feature, which has streamlined our billing process even further.

October 7, 2024

[Read more Clockify reviews here](https://www.capterra.com/p/169607/Clockify/reviews/). ​

### Included features 

Most users who agree that Clockify offers good value for money say the features are worth the upgraded cost. Users rated the "features" category relatively high, receiving a 4.6 out of 5. Since many users opt for the Free plan, that could hinder the overall feature rating — although most users say this software's features are easy to use and beneficial, regardless of the ​plan. The CAKE.com bundle offers the most features, providing access to three tools. However, all paid plans offer many features designed around certain goals. For example, the Standard plan focuses on timesheeting and billing, whereas the Pro plan is based on greater profit and productivity control. 

### Customer support options ​

Clockify offers users support 24/7 by phone, email, or chat and has a Clockify Help Center. While all plans will gain access to support staff, the Free plan does not include a dedicated success representative. ​​​​​​The extensive Help Center offers in-depth guides on everything from tracking time to maximizing reporting and integrations. 

## ​​Is Clockify right for you?

### Assessing your requirements 

Committing to a paid Clockify plan can be a big decision, especially if you're a small business with a tight budget. Do you go with the cheapest plan but limit access to features? Do you increase your investment to access the bundle's features or those within the higher-tier plans? Do you opt for an alternative?

Here are some considerations:

### Alternatives to Clockify

Overall, Clockify is rated 4.8 out of 5. Many are happy with Clockify and stick with it. However, it doesn't hurt to explore your options, especially if there is a feature you use often that's not exactly what your business needs. Here are some of the top alternatives, with prices ranging from free to $40 per month (ClockShark has the most expensive starting price).

If the value for money is your greatest concern, Clockify does have a strong rating of 4.7 out of 5. 

-   **Jira** has an overall rating of 4.4 out of 5 but 4.3 in the value-for-money category. Users appreciate this software's functionality and the addition of issue tracking. You can customize your dashboard, and Jira integrates well with other Atlassian products. 
-   **Monday.com** has an overall rating of 4.6 out of 5, with a score of 4.3 concerning value for money. Users report great support staff, ease of use (thanks to provided templates), and high flexibility. This software lacks the features they need, which is why shopping around can help you get the most out of your final choice. 
-   **ClockShark** scored 4.7 out of 5 overall among our site users — receiving the same rating regarding value for money. This software provider offers a free 14-day trial. Users report ease of implementation and excellent customer support. 
-   **Jibble** tops the ratings overall, receiving a score of 4.9 out of 5. This software has a rating of 4.8 out of 5 when scoring value for money. Users love the customizable reporting system, the software's ease of use, and the technology that is implemented, like facial recognition. 
-   **Toggl Track** has an overall rating of 4.7 out of 5, receiving 4.6 out of 5 concerning value for money. Users are fond of the free version and how this software easily integrates with Asana. Toggl Track offers similar features to Clockify, focusing on time tracking, project management, and reporting.

## Making the final decision

Clockify has several plans, offering flexible, affordable options for all business sizes and types. These plans are as low as $0, providing users with unlimited, basic time-tracking features. You can opt to be billed annually to enjoy additional savings, although many agree the monthly rates are affordable. Begin with the Free plan and then upgrade to the free trial. Select the plan that best suits your team's needs, ensuring that you will maximize all features before you upgrade. ​

## FAQs

Are there any limits in the Clockify free plan?

No. There are no limits on time tracking. You can also invite as many users as you like to your workspace without any restrictions, which is why so many find this software so valuable. The Free plan offers plenty of value as long as you all need basic features, like timers, basic reporting, and timesheets. However, once you need more advanced features like integrations, reporting, or admin controls, it's recommended that you upgrade your plan — which is still affordable according to our site's verified Clockify users.

Is Clockify really free?

Yes, Clockify's Free plan is completely free and comes with basic time tracking features. Users can track time without any cost, forever — no hidden fees or commitments required. However, once you require more advanced features like invoicing, detailed reporting, or specific integration to support your workflows, there are paid plans to meet your needs. ​

What is better than Clockify?

​​To be "better" than Clockify, you need to consider your needs and preferences. However, Toggl Track is often compared to Clockify, and some say it is a better option. This alternative is said to have an intuitive interface with a higher focus on employee trust, whereas Clockify is a top option because of its lower price point. Other options include TimeCamp, Harvest, and Timely. ​

​What payment method does Clockify use?

Clockify uses Stripe for payment processing, allowing users to securely pay for subscriptions with credit cards via the Stripe system. For larger purchases, you can send a wire transfer or purchase order. However, most users just pay via credit card. ​​

How many users can you have on Clockify?

On Clockify, you can have unlimited users on the Free plan. The same applies to paid plans, but they come with additional features and offer more advanced functionalities. This structure means that regardless of your Clockify plan, you can track your whole team. However, only administrators can invite new users and manage each user's details. ​

Can I try the paid features of Clockify?

Yes, you can try the Free plan — and to test the paid features, you can sign up for a free seven-day trial. No credit card is required. All you need to do is activate your trial on the "upgrade" page with your initial free account. You can test all features before committing to a paid plan. Again, only admins can activate the free trial.

How does canceling Clockify work?

To cancel Clockify, follow a few simple steps:

-   Log in to your account

Does Clockify offer refunds?

Clockify recommends testing the Free plan and then the seven-day trial to make a more confident decision before submitting your first payment.

Does Clockify offer discounts?

While Clockify is not known to offer many promotional discounts outside of annual pricing, its Free plan is robust. It is one of the best free time tracking plans based on its extensive (and unlimited) access to basic features.​

How does Clockify kiosk pricing work?

Clockify kiosk pricing means you pay a lower price per user for "limited seats." When you choose this option, you only allow access to the Clockify system through a kiosk. So, users can only clock in and out on a designated device, with restricted functionality. In comparison, a full user can access the full range of features on the platform. Kiosk pricing varies depending on your chosen Clockify plan. However, "limited seats" are generally​​ significantly cheaper than full-user seats.

How does Clockify's yearly pricing work?

As Clockify states on its site, yearly pricing works by you prepaying a seat in advance for the full year. Doing so instantly gives you 20% off. If you add another seat midway through the year, you pay a prorated price for the rest of the year. If you need someone for just a short period, you can deactivate them later to free up their paid seat for someone else on your team.

How do you get Clockify + Plaky + Pumble together?
