The short answer

Toggl Track is the top pick for most teams leaving Everhour, because it keeps the same clean timer feel, adds billable rates and simple reports, and offers a free plan with no seat minimum. Teams that need invoicing should look at Harvest, while Clockify suits small teams that want the lowest starting price.

  • Hubstaff, Timely, and Time Doctor suit teams that want screenshots, GPS, or automatic time capture, and none of the three has a free plan.

How we choose

We reviewed the vendor pricing pages, plan pages, and feature docs for each tool, and we compared starting prices, free plans, seat minimums, timers, reports, integrations, and limits. We checked the Everhour Team price and seat minimum against its pricing page, and we applied the same check for each alternative, so the figures in this guide come from the vendors themselves. We did not claim hands-on testing, and we did not rank tools by a score. The top pick reflects the closest match to the Everhour timer feel, with a free plan and no seat minimum.

★ Best overall

Toggl Track

Best for Simple timers and billable rates

  • Clean one-click timers
  • billable rates and simple reports
Price$9 per user/month (billed annually)
See Toggl Track pricing

Toggl Track is the closest match for teams that liked the Everhour timer but want fewer limits. The timer sits at the top of the screen, so starting and stopping work takes one click, and entries can be edited after the fact. Billable rates, tags, and projects keep client work separate, and the free plan covers up to 5 users with no seat minimum, which suits a small team or a trial with a few people.

Reports show time by project, client, tag, and team member, and the data can be exported for invoices or client updates. Starter costs $9 per user per month billed annually, Premium costs $18, and Enterprise is custom. Teams that need forecasting, project templates, or time audits will need Premium. For most teams that want a calm timer and clear totals, Starter covers the core work well.

Price: $9 per user/month (billed annually)

Free plan: Yes, up to 5 users

Website: toggl.com

Watch out for

  • No screenshots or monitoring
  • advanced reporting needs Premium at $18 per user per month
2

Harvest

Best for Invoicing and expenses
$9 per seat/month (billed annually)

Harvest pairs time tracking with invoicing, expenses, and project budgets, which makes it a strong pick for agencies and consultancies that bill by the hour. The timer works from the web, desktop, and mobile, and timesheets show who worked on what and how much of the budget remains. Teams can set hourly rates, track expenses against a project, and send invoices from the same account.

Teams costs $9 per seat per month billed annually, or $11 billed monthly, while Enterprise costs $14 per seat per month billed annually, or $17.50 billed monthly. Flex usage fees apply for active projects, clients, tasks, and invoicing, so the total can rise above the seat price as the account grows. There is no free plan, only a 30-day trial, so check the Flex fees against your project count during the trial.

Price: $9 per seat/month (billed annually)

Free plan: Free trial (30 days)

Website: getharvest.com

What we like

  • Invoicing and expenses built in
  • clear project budgets

Watch out for

  • No free plan
  • Flex usage fees apply for active projects, clients, tasks, and invoicing
3

Clockify

Best for Low-cost time tracking
$3.99 per user/month (billed annually)

Clockify is the cheapest way to move away from Everhour without losing the basics. The free plan covers up to 5 users, and the timer, manual entries, and timesheet views work in the browser and on desktop and mobile apps. Basic costs $3.99 per user per month billed annually, Standard costs $5.49, Pro costs $7.99, and Enterprise costs $11.99, so a team can start low and move up only when it needs more controls.

Reports show time by project and user, and the app supports tags, tasks, and billable flags. Clockify does not try to be a full project suite, which keeps the learning curve short, but teams that want built-in invoicing, scheduling, or deep approvals will need a higher tier or a second app. For a small team that mainly needs honest hours and a low bill, Clockify is hard to beat on price.

Price: $3.99 per user/month (billed annually)

Free plan: Yes, up to 5 users

Website: clockify.me

What we like

  • Lowest starting price in this guide
  • simple timers and timesheets

Watch out for

  • Free plan caps at 5 users
  • some admin controls sit on higher tiers
4

Hubstaff

Best for Field teams and monitoring
$4.99 per user/month (billed annually)

Hubstaff suits teams that need proof of work as well as hours. Screenshots, activity levels, GPS tracking, and payroll tools sit next to the timer, which helps managers of remote staff, field crews, and contractors see where time went. Starter costs $4.99 per user per month billed annually, Grow costs $7.50, Team costs $10, and Enterprise costs $25, with a 2-seat minimum across the plans.

The monitoring features are the main reason to pick Hubstaff, and also the main thing to weigh before you buy. Some teams welcome the visibility, while others find screenshots intrusive, so agree the settings with the team before you turn them on. There is no free plan, only a 14-day trial, so use it to test the desktop app, the mobile GPS, and the payroll export.

Price: $4.99 per user/month (billed annually)

Free plan: Free trial (14 days)

Website: hubstaff.com

What we like

  • Screenshots, GPS, and payroll
  • good for remote and field teams

Watch out for

  • 2-seat minimum
  • screenshots can feel intrusive for some teams
5

TimeCamp

Best for Free tracking for larger teams
$3.99 per user/month (billed annually)

TimeCamp stands out because its free plan covers unlimited users and projects, which is rare in this group. The timer works by hand or automatically, and the app can record app and website use to fill in gaps at the end of the day. Starter costs $3.99 per user per month billed annually, Premium costs $6.99, and Ultimate costs $9.99, so the step from free to a full feature set stays modest.

Billable rates and timesheet approvals need Ultimate, so teams that bill clients should price that tier, not Starter. Reports cover projects, people, and profitability, and integrations link TimeCamp to common project apps. For a team that wants a free start with room to grow, and does not need invoicing on day one, TimeCamp is a practical pick.

Price: $3.99 per user/month (billed annually)

Free plan: Yes

Website: timecamp.com

What we like

  • Free plan for unlimited users and projects
  • automatic time tracking

Watch out for

  • Billable rates and timesheet approvals need Ultimate at $9.99 per user per month
  • Premium allows only 1 integration
6

Paymo

Best for Projects, tasks, and invoicing in one app
$10.90 per user/month (billed annually)

Paymo is the pick for teams that want time tracking inside a wider project app rather than as a standalone timer. Task boards, Gantt charts, milestones, and file sharing sit next to timesheets, and invoices can be built from tracked hours without moving data to another tool. Solo costs $5.90 per user per month billed annually for 1 user, Plus costs $10.90, and Pro costs $16.90, and the vendor page notes a higher rate after the first 3 months.

That rate change is the detail to check before you buy, because the first 3 months can look cheaper than the long-term cost. Work out the full-year total from the pricing page on the day you sign up. The free plan lets a team test the task and time features, while Pro adds the deeper reporting and portfolio views that larger teams need.

Price: $10.90 per user/month (billed annually)

Free plan: Yes

Website: paymoapp.com

What we like

  • Task boards, Gantt charts, and invoicing in one app
  • free plan available

Watch out for

  • Higher rate applies after the first 3 months
  • Solo plan covers only 1 user
7

Timely

Best for Automatic time capture
$9 per user/month (billed annually)

Timely takes a different approach from the other tools here, because it records work in the background and drafts timesheets for review. The Memory tracker notes the apps, documents, and meetings used during the day, and the AI draft turns that record into timed entries that a person can accept or edit. That design suits teams that forget to start a timer or switch between many small tasks.

Starter costs $9 per user per month billed annually, and it caps at 5 users and 20 projects, so a growing team will outgrow it fast. There is no free plan, only a 14-day trial, so use the trial to see whether the automatic record matches real work and whether the team trusts the drafts. Teams that want full manual control may prefer a plain timer instead.

Price: $9 per user/month (billed annually)

Free plan: Free trial (14 days)

Website: timely.com

What we like

  • Memory tracker records work in the background
  • AI drafts timesheets

Watch out for

  • Starter caps at 5 users and 20 projects
  • no free plan
8

Time Doctor

Best for Productivity monitoring
$6.67 per user/month (billed annually)

Time Doctor combines a timer with screenshots, website and app tracking, and distraction alerts, which makes it a fit for teams that need to see focus as well as hours. Managers get reports on time by project and client, idle time, and app use, and the data can feed payroll or client billing. Basic costs $6.67 per user per month billed annually, Standard costs $11.67, and Premium costs $16.70, with a 14-day trial and no free plan.

The monitoring is the point of the tool, so set the rules with the team before you switch it on, and check local rules on workplace monitoring where they apply. Teams that only need a timer and a total will find Time Doctor heavier than Toggl Track or Clockify, but teams that manage remote staff will get more from its reports.

Price: $6.67 per user/month (billed annually)

Free plan: Free trial (14 days)

Website: timedoctor.com

What we like

  • Screenshots and distraction alerts
  • clear productivity reports

Watch out for

  • No free plan
  • screenshots and distraction alerts can feel intrusive for some teams

What to check before you buy

Check the seat minimum first, because Everhour needs 5 seats and some alternatives need 2, while Toggl Track, Clockify, and TimeCamp have no seat minimum on the plans named here. Check whether the free plan covers your team size, and whether it includes the integrations you use every day. Check the trial length, because Harvest gives 30 days while Hubstaff, Timely, and Time Doctor give 14 days, and a short trial may not cover a full billing cycle.

Check the price after any intro period, since Paymo notes a higher rate after the first 3 months, and check whether usage fees apply, since Harvest adds Flex fees for active projects, clients, tasks, and invoicing. Check the project and user caps on the starting tier, because Timely Starter caps at 5 users and 20 projects. Check the monitoring settings too, and agree them with the team before you turn on screenshots, GPS, or distraction alerts. Finally, export a sample report and an invoice during the trial, and confirm the totals match the hours your team actually worked.
