Harvest
Best for Invoicing, expenses and budgetsHarvest pairs time tracking with invoicing, which is why agencies that bill clients pick it over a timer alone. Teams costs $9 per seat per month billed annually and includes time tracking, expenses, invoicing, project budgets and reports. Enterprise costs $14 per seat per month billed annually and adds profitability reporting and extra controls. The free plan covers 1 seat and 2 projects, which suits a solo freelancer testing the workflow. Harvest also charges Flex usage fees for active projects, clients, tasks and invoicing, on top of the seat price.
The Flex fees are the part to budget for, since a busy agency with many active projects pays more than the seat price alone. Harvest has no screenshot monitoring and no GPS tracking, so it does not suit teams that need oversight of remote staff. Reporting is simpler than Toggl Track Premium, and there is no native scheduling. For a team that bills hours and wants invoices from the same data, Harvest is the most complete option in this list.
