Everhour vs Noko

Everhour

• Teams that manage work in Asana, Jira, Linear, Trello or ClickUp
• Agencies that watch project budgets and bill clients from tracked time
• Teams of up to 5 that only need basic time tracking

Noko

• Small agencies and consultancies that invoice for hours
• Developers who log time from commit messages
• Mac and iPhone users who want a menu bar timer

Everhour

• The free plan covers up to 5 seats with limited features and no integrations.
• The Team plan bills a minimum of 5 seats, so a team of 2 or 3 still pays for 5.
• The desktop app is for macOS only; the vendor lists Windows as coming soon.
• Annual payment is a commitment: unused months are not refunded on cancellation.

Noko

• The plans page lists no free plan; the help center describes a free account with 1 user and 1 project, set up by emailing support.
• Essential has no invoicing, entry approval starts on Team and the entry audit log needs Organization.
• Team is priced for 5 users at $49 a month and Organization for 25 at $199, even if fewer people use it.
• There is no native Android or Windows app; Android phones use the mobile web app.

Everhour

Tracking inside other tools

Native integrations and the browser extension embed timer controls in tools such as Asana, Jira, Linear and Trello, so time is logged against existing tasks. Paid plan only.

Timer, timesheets and clock-in

Start and stop a timer or log hours afterwards in day and week views. Clock-in and clock-out records working hours and breaks.

Budgets and alerts

Set fixed-fee or recurring budgets on projects and receive email alerts when spending reaches the thresholds you choose.

Reports and dashboards

Customizable reports with filters and data export can be scheduled for delivery by email, and timesheets can be locked or sent for approval.

Invoicing and expenses

Invoices are created from tracked time and expenses using customizable templates, with payments recorded against them. Expenses can carry receipt attachments.

Resource planning and time off

An interactive schedule shows who is assigned to what and who has availability, compares estimates with actual time, and tracks vacations and other leave.

Noko

Fast entry with projects and tags

Time is logged from any page against a project, with tags to categorize the work. A new client's project can be created while logging the entry.

Timers that follow you

A timer started in the browser carries over to the Mac menu bar app or the iPhone app, and timers have keyboard shortcuts.

Billing increments and unbillable time

Timers and entries round up automatically to the increment you set. Unbillable time is tracked separately to show client and project overhead.

Invoicing

Invoices are generated from logged time in multiple currencies, with expenses or credits added. Clients can pay through Stripe or PayPal.

Reports and exports

Reports show who is working on what and how often, can be shared with a client or manager, and download as CSV, Excel or PDF.

Developer integrations and API

Developers can log time from GitHub or Beanstalk commit messages. Projects sync from Basecamp, and a REST API and Zapier connect other tools.
