# Which App Is Best for Employee Time Tracking?

Exploring which app is best for employee time tracking, especially for small to midsize teams that need visibility into hours worked, productivity, and project costs without micromanagement.<p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">Here are some of the top-rated solutions in G2's <a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/categories/time-tracking-software">Time Tracking Software category</a>. Each tool takes a slightly different approach, so I’m curious which ones teams actually stick with over time.</p><a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/toggl-track/reviews">Toggl Track</a><p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">Toggl Track is a go-to for teams looking for simplicity without sacrificing insights. It offers easy-to-use timers, tagging by project or client, and reporting that breaks down time use across the day or week. Unlike more invasive tools, it doesn’t track activity behind the scenes—making it a popular choice for teams that value autonomy.</p><a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/clickup/reviews">ClickUp</a><p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">ClickUp includes built-in time tracking that links directly to tasks and goals. It’s ideal for teams already using ClickUp for project or task management and want to consolidate tools.

It is best suited for teams that live inside ClickUp already.</p><a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/hubstaff/reviews">Hubstaff</a><p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">Hubstaff is often used for more granular time tracking, especially for remote or field teams.

&lt;p&gt;Does Clockify stay reliable as teams grow, or does it start to feel limited without the paid features?&lt;/p&gt;

There are lots of time tracking software, even some free ones.

Our company has been sticking with Apploye for the last 4 years. Apploye has time tracking and integrated billing &amp; invoice features. 

I never heard any complaints about those features. So, we will be sticking with the Apploye for the future.
