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 [Toggl Track](https://www.capterra.com/p/247745/Toggl/) Reason for choosing Clockify Mostly because price. I work with different people, so I can add them as a user easily. Switched from [Toggl Track](https://www.capterra.com/p/247745/Toggl/) The other agency switched to clockify so I ended up using clockify and discovered it was cheaper Review Source Eric T. Managing Member Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "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. Alternatives considered [Gusto](https://www.capterra.com/p/131882/Gusto/)[Harvest](https://www.capterra.com/p/75598/Harvest/) Reason for choosing Clockify Ease of configuration and use. It was just that easy to set it up. Review Source MS Mary S. Library Tech Education Management Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "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. Review Source KS Keneila S. Head spa owner Consumer Services Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Clockify user " April 11, 2026 3.0 It was okay overall i feel like it could be a like more user friendly but it could be user error as well. Pros It was a well known app that seemed to register with a lot of people on the team i was a part of. Had no issues in terms of use. Cons It was difficult to use and figure out. There seemed to be a B learning curve in my end and it also charged and i didn’t realize that. Review Source Response from CAKE.com April 15, 2026 Hello there, Appreciate the review!

No fuss, instructions are easy to follow. can be used immediately by your team. Cons ease of use, the app is simple but reliable and stable for team or small group of people to track time... Review Source Abhishek G. Head of Customer Success Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "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. Switched from [Microsoft Excel](https://www.capterra.com/p/176574/Excel/) Tracking time and expense manually in Excel and then trying to make sense of it for customer billing was turning into a nightmare. Review Source Yasith P. CTO Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "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. Review Source Paige S. Financial Assistant Construction Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "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. Alternatives considered [Odoo](https://www.capterra.com/p/135618/Odoo/) Reason for choosing Clockify The price point- Odoo was $50,000+ to do exactly what ya'll do. Review Source David V. Lead Developer Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "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. Switched from [Accelo](https://www.capterra.com/p/225762/Accelo/) Just a more simple solution. Accelo is great, but overly complex. Review Source TH Thomas H. Insight Manager Sports Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "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 Switched from [Toggl Track](https://www.capterra.com/p/247745/Toggl/) Wanted an easier platform and something which could help us more Review Source Response from CAKE.com December 10, 2025 Hi Thomas, Thank you for your review.

We were on it for over 3 years and the overall experience was really good. Pros It was simple to use, very intuitive, and I was able to track my hours very easily. The phone app helped as well. Cons We could not find a perfect integration with our payroll system. At the moment, we use Deel, and there is no integration. Switched from [WebWork Time Tracker](https://www.capterra.com/p/151338/WebWork-Time-Tracker/) We switched because of the integration with Deel. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Sales Manager Business Supplies and Equipment Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Productivity boosting clock" March 23, 2026 4.0 Clockify is really a helpful tool to understand where your time goes like in emails or admin fixes. It is great to know on what I am spending my most of the time. Pros I like it as it is a simple and easy tool to boost your productivity and dont feel like a manager watching me what I am doing. The timer can be started with one click and I can keep track of my work. Cons Sometime the amount of data you see on the dashboard can feel too much. Also to find something in a report can takes extra clicks which feels a little waste of time. Review Source Response from CAKE.com March 25, 2026 Hi there, thank you for the kind feedback and we are happy that you find our app helpful in boosting your productivity and audit how your time is allocated. For the amount of data on the dashboard feedback and report taking extra clicks, can you share more details to us at support@clockify.me directly?

Freelance Consultant Computer Games Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "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. Review Source Response from CAKE.com February 20, 2026 Hi Kay, Thank you for yoru review~ What you described sounds very unusual as all changes should be instant. In case you're interested in troubleshooting, please feel free to reach out at our support at support@clockify.me! Cheers! Amber L.

August 7, 2025 4.0 The onboarding/sales process was great and we felt very supported with a really knowledgeable member of staff showing us the ropes. I like how you can assign hours to different projects which really helps when people are doing additional hours. Pros There is a lot of functionality to explore and we are probably not utilising it to it's fullest just yet! The expenses function is so easy and great to use on the go. Cons There's not much I don't like about the system but overall it was just a huge change from the outdated ways we were doing things before so it was a bit of a learning curve for some employees who may not feel very tech-savvy. That is not really a criticism of Clockify though! Review Source BW Bradley W. Director Management Consulting Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "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. Review Source BA Beth A. Copywriter and marketing consultant Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "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. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Controller Consumer Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great time tracking software!" March 18, 2026 4.0 Overall, the software is easy to use and I haven't had any issues that required help. I like that it integrates with QuickBooks since so many companies use QuickBooks software. Pros I like that you can keep projects together under one client. you can I really like that you can keep track of several different sessions of working on the same project under one line. Other tracking software forces you to add those sessions together for a daily total. Cons It would be nice to have another layer in clients where you could separate different sorts of projects before breaking it down to the actual project itself. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Admin Assistant Information Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Track hours at ease" 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 Review Source Shari R. Tax Analyst Retail Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Clockify is the master of all masters, the most streamlined tool for time tracking." February 24, 2025 5.0 I had never experienced such a productive time tracking experience than i am with Clockify. It makes makes it look so easy to monitor time usage. Clockify has helped me to learn how to become more productive by adopting better time management behaviors. With Clockify, time wastage has become a thing of the past. Pros Setting up Clockify was so easy and i love the user-friendly interface. Clockify has amazing shift scheduling tools that makes it easy for our team to allocate shifts. It has task automation workflows that help record all time data automatically making time tracking very precise. Clockify time usage reports are easy to interpret and offer reliable insights on time management. Cons Am yet to face any challenges with Clockify. It has been a smooth ride and I don't have any complaints. Review Source Marva T. CEO Professional Training & Coaching Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "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.

Advanced mental health staff Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "App with great potential " October 15, 2025 4.0 Pros I’ll say clockify is a great tool and has so much potential to be better. I particularly like the fact that it’s got a free version that can do a lot, it gives you an idea of what the app is and helps you decide if you want a paid plan and surprisingly there’s even more advanced features and I like the fact that it can integrate with other tools. Cons The mobile interface feels a little bit too much, if I may say it needs a cleaner more easily accessible interface. The constant bug is also an issue which Ofcourse requires frequent updates. Review Source Response from CAKE.com October 30, 2025 Hi Odukunle, thank you for the kind review and feedback!

Looking forward to hearing from you there, Cheers! Martin D. Managing Director Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "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. Review Source RB Rachel B. CEO Executive Office Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great piece of software for accurate tracking" June 24, 2025 5.0 Really great, super helpful with answering questions and any queries that have arisen. I know I've had a problem in the past with hours not showing a monetary value which has been a software error however it's been sorted quickly. Pros Very straightforward to setup and get started with. Really easy to amend and also get useful reports from that can be used internally and shared externally via links Cons There isn't really anything I don't like about it. Although sometimes when starting the timers for activities it hasn't always worked but that's a quick manual amendment. Review Source NA Nava A. Assistant Manager Commercial Real Estate Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great for Staff Hours" September 25, 2025 4.0 Pros Very solid for tracking employee hours, including clock-ins/outs, timesheets, and overtime. The reporting tools are strong and flexible Cons Some advanced features are behind paywalls, so you may need to upgrade. Mobile interface and offline capabilities sometimes lag. Review Source CB Candida B. Maker Arts and Crafts Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Clockify is useful" September 8, 2025 4.0 Nice and easy to use, looks a little dated but works well to work out where your spending time in your business Pros I like how many capabilities the app has. you can do a lot within it. It's easy to navigate and you can set up projects to time different aspects of your business. Cons it felt a little clunky, e.g.g it seemed to put me on manual and then at times I'd forget to stop it so timing wasn't accurate. Review Source Response from CAKE.com October 30, 2025 Hi Candida, Thank you for sharing your feedback on our app!
