Our Verdict

ClockifyOur Pick

Clockify has the strongest free tier in time tracking — unlimited users, unlimited projects, unlimited tracking. For a solo consultant who just needs to know how many hours went to which client, Clockify's free plan covers everything. The paid plans ($5.49/month on Pro) add billable rates, time rounding, budgets, and branded reports. Everhour's advantage is PM tool integration. If you live in Asana, ClickUp, or Monday.com, Everhour puts a timer button directly on your tasks. No context switching, no forgetting to track. But that integration comes at a higher price — $8.50/user/month minimum, with a 2-seat minimum on the Team plan. For most solo consultants, Clockify is the practical choice. The free tier alone handles basic time tracking and reporting. When you need billable rate calculations or client-facing reports, the $5.49/month Pro plan is still cheaper than Everhour's minimum. Everhour makes sense for consultants who manage complex, multi-phase engagements inside a PM tool and need time entries automatically linked to specific tasks and deliverables. If you are already paying for Asana or ClickUp and want one fewer app to switch between, Everhour's embedded approach removes friction that Clockify cannot match. The deciding question: do you track time by client (Clockify) or by task within a PM tool (Everhour)?

Clockify leads by 9 points (strong advantage).
