Pricing & total cost of ownership

Trakkar logoTrakkar

Trakkar Premium is $5/user/month (₹120/user/month + GST in India) with time tracking, screenshots, attendance, leave, invoicing, and client portal included. That's $100/month at list price for a 20-person team (₹2,400/month + GST in India), paid upfront for 6 months (5% off) or 12 months (10% off), with no per-module upsells.

Clockify logoClockify

Clockify pricing: Free for up to 5 users; paid Standard from $5.49/seat/mo (annual) to $11.99. Most teams also pay for separate invoicing, HR, or monitoring tools, pushing total cost well above the listed per-user price.

One platform instead of a stack

Trakkar logoTrakkar

Built for Indian billing: client GSTIN on invoices, the tax rate you pick, invoice numbers that restart each Indian financial year, TDS recorded at payment, Indian leave presets, and holiday presets for national holidays in India and Maharashtra's state holidays.

Clockify logoClockify

Clockify covers one slice of the workflow. Trakkar bundles time tracking with screenshots, projects, attendance and leave, invoicing, and a client portal in a single per-user price. GST invoices and quotations are created in Trakkar too, so there is no separate invoicing tool to buy.

Feature depth & tool consolidation

Trakkar logoTrakkar

One dashboard replaces a time tracker, attendance system, leave manager, invoicing tool, and client portal. Tasks run on a Kanban board, where you drag cards between your own status columns, and a timeline (Gantt-style) view shows tasks by project. Each project can have its own workflow, with your own statuses and the moves you allow between them, plus ready-made HR automations. The async daily standup fills itself in from yesterday's tasks and time, and it flags blockers and sends nudges. For people changes, there are onboarding and offboarding checklists, probation reviews, notice, clearance and exit records.

Strengths on both sides

Trakkar

Where Trakkar wins

  • All-in-one: time tracking, attendance, leave, invoicing, and client portal at $5/user (₹120 + GST in India), with no add-on stack
  • Built for growing teams: GST invoices, plus leave types and holidays you can set up yourself.
  • Screenshots included
  • Agency-ready client portal without upgrading to Enterprise
Clockify

Where Clockify wins

  • Usable free tier for small teams (up to 5 users)
  • Simple timer and timesheet UX
  • Wide integrations (50+ apps)
  • Kiosk mode for shared devices

Common Clockify limitations

  • Payroll isn't native and needs integrations or separate HR/payroll software
  • No India-specific GST setup, such as client GSTIN or Indian FY invoice numbering
  • Screenshot monitoring requires third-party tools
  • Time off and attendance on paid tiers still lack India statutory payroll and deep HR

Choose Trakkar if…

  • Agencies billing clients for tracked time
  • Teams tired of stitching Clockify + HR + invoicing tools together
  • Remote teams needing attendance, leave, and screenshots in one dashboard

Choose Clockify if…

  • Global teams that only need a free timer and basic reports
  • Organizations already on a separate HR and invoicing stack

Trakkar vs Clockify: FAQs

Clockify's free plan covers basic tracking for up to 5 users, but invoicing, approvals, attendance, and scheduling require paid tiers ($5.49–$11.99/seat on annual billing). Trakkar's Premium plan at $5/user (₹120 + GST in India) includes time tracking, attendance, leave, invoicing, screenshots, and a client portal. That's typically less than Clockify Pro plus a separate India GST invoicing tool.
