## Good for

- Small consultancies tracking hours per client and project

- Users who need a non-English interface

- It is a hosted web app only; the site lists no mobile or desktop apps and no integrations.

## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 2.2 out of 4**, graded Nov 13, 2026. ClockingIT is a hosted project workspace with a timer on every task, Gantt charts and chat, and the site says it's free to get started. It lists no plans or later pricing, its terms page isn't published, and there are no apps or integrations.

- **Value for money: C.** Free to get started with no plans listed, so what you might pay later is unverified.

## Where it stands among time tracking apps

- ClockingIT's GPA of 2.2 is higher than 23 of the 98 other time tracking apps we grade, and level with 17.
- It stands best on free plan and trial (B, above 74 of 98) and worst on features (C, above 0).
- ClockingIT has no paid plan.
- On features, ease of use and platforms it scores 2.0 out of 4. Nothing scores higher for less, though at least one tool matches that score at a lower price.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** ClockingIT is free, so making your own would save you nothing. And it is not the kind of software a weekend replaces. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 58 of the 98 other time tracking apps grade higher.

- You could make: Time tracking, tasks, kanban boards, Gantt & timelines, wiki and reports: an app builder makes these well.
- You could not: Chat that a whole team counts on staying up.
- You could not: Sharing with other people, which means accounts and invitations.

A judgement by ToolGPA from this listing, by rules that are the same for every tool. Nothing was built to test it.
