Replicon vs Ruddr (2026): which should you pick?

Pick Replicon if

• Fits if you are a project or government-contract firm that needs compliance rules
• Makes sense if you already use other Deltek products

Look elsewhere if

• Skip it if you want a price or a trial before talking to sales, as none are published
• Not for you if you are a freelancer or tiny team, as it is aimed at project firms
• Watch out: the page does not say which mobile operating systems are supported
• Watch out: it is one module of the wider Deltek platform, so scope can grow beyond time

Pick Ruddr if

• Fits if you are a consultancy that tracks project profit by the hour
• Works for firms that want time, invoices and utilization together

Look elsewhere if

• Pricey if you just want hours, as $14 is well above the middle for time trackers
• Tight if you need resource allocations or multicurrency, both on the $24 plan
• Not for you if staff are mostly non-billable, since you pay for half the members below 50% billable
• Watch out: no refunds, and after 24 locked months prices can rise up to 10%

Replicon

• No prices, plans or free trial are published; the page offers a demo request only.
• The page does not say which mobile operating systems are supported.
• It is one module of the wider Deltek platform and is aimed at project-based firms rather than solo freelancers.

Ruddr

• Non-billable members are free only while at least 50% of workspace members are billable; below that, you pay for half the members.
• Resource allocations, multicurrency, revenue recognition and sales pipeline need the Pro plan.
• The pricing FAQ says it does not provide refunds, only prorated credit when billable members are removed.
• After 24 locked months, increases can occur once per 24-month period and be no more than 10%, per its pricing FAQ.
