Hourbun vs Everhour

Looking for an Everhour alternative that does not charge one person for 5 seats? Hourbun tracks your time and invoices each client in its own currency, at a flat price per workspace.

By Fred Wu, maker of Hourbun · Checked · Report a mistake

The short answer

Hourbun bills a freelancer or a small team at a flat price, with a currency for each client: one person pays $15 a month, and a team of 25 pays $99. Everhour's Team plan charges $10 a seat a month for at least 5 seats, so one person pays $50, and it keeps one base currency for each workspace. Everhour fits teams that track time inside Asana, Jira or ClickUp.
