Which one is for you
Pick Jibble if
- Fits if you need a free time clock for more people than most free plans allow

Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you need to see a price before you sign up, as Premium and Ultimate don't publish one
- Tight if you're staying free with more than 2 locations, 1 kiosk or 1 work schedule, or need screenshots kept past 3 days
- Not for you if your desktops run Linux, since the desktop apps are Mac and Windows only
- Watch out: a localized price moves to the standard USD plan if under 80% of your users are based in that country
Pick Traqq if
- Fits if you are up to three people tracking one project
- Works for teams that want no screenshots or activity watching
Look elsewhere if
- Tight if you have more than 1 project, as the free plan stops there
- Skip it if you need invoicing, which starts on Business at $9 a user
- Not for you if you use Linux or phones, as only Windows and Mac apps are listed
- Watch out: billing is per seat bought, and refunds cover only 14 days on a first subscription
How we grade them
| 3.4GPAJibbleVery good | 2.4GPATraqqFair | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | CWe can't tell you what Premium or Ultimate cost, because the plans page lists them with no amounts at all, so there's nothing to hold up against other time trackers. They're billed per seat, monthly or annually, and nonprofits can claim 50% off for life. | BPlus is $4 per user a month billed monthly, inside the cheaper quarter of time tracking, which ends at $4.50; a free plan sits below it. |

The caps are 2 locations, 1 kiosk and 1 work schedule, and screenshots are kept for 3 days. | CFree for up to 3 users and 1 project, which you will outgrow; paid plans have a 14-day trial with no card. |
| Features | BClock-ins checked by face recognition, selfie, NFC tap or PIN, with GPS and geofences. Timesheets build themselves and managers approve them per pay period, and time off, overtime rules, projects and client invoices are all in there. Attendance is covered end to end. | CTimer, timesheets, expenses, rates and time off, but invoicing needs Business and Plus has a 10-user ceiling. |

Key features
Jibble
- Clock in from any device
- Staff track hours from iOS and Android apps, Mac and Windows desktop apps, a Chrome extension, a browser, or a tablet set up as a shared kiosk.
- Identity and location checks
- Clock-ins can require face recognition, a selfie, an NFC tap or a PIN, and GPS stamps a location on each entry. Geofences restrict clock-ins to approved sites.
- Timesheets and approvals
- Time entries build timesheets automatically. Managers review and approve them per pay period, and reports export as XLS or CSV for payroll.
- Time off and work schedules
- Leave policies, accruals and requests are managed alongside tracked hours, with work schedules and overtime rules. The Free plan allows 1 work schedule.
- Projects and invoicing
- Time can be logged against projects, activities and clients, then turned into client invoices. A Xero integration sends invoices from payroll hours.
- Offline mode and screenshots
- Entries made without a connection sync once the device is back online. The Mac and Windows apps can capture screenshots, kept for 3 days on the Free plan.
Traqq

- Track time from the web app, Windows and macOS desktop apps or a browser extension, with entries linked to projects, tasks, tags and billing status.
- Smart time tracking
- The desktop apps can pause the timer when you switch to apps you mark as non-work and resume it when you return.
- Timesheets and expenses
- Timesheets are created from tracked time, with work-related expenses available from Plus and approvals handled in the same place.

- Billable and cost rates feed project financials; invoicing and uninvoiced-time views start on the Business plan.
- Schedules, attendance and time off
- Set work schedules, track attendance and breaks, and manage leave from a time-off calendar available on every plan.
- No activity monitoring
- Traqq says it records no screenshots, activity scores, idle detection or app and website usage, so time is only what people log.

More comparisons
How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
