An honest look at both

No tool wins on everything. Here is where each one is genuinely the better pick.

Where Clockify is the better choice

  • Best-in-class, genuinely free time tracking, still unlimited hours and projects for up to five users.
  • Simplicity and a very low learning curve. You can start tracking in minutes.
  • Deep, flexible time capture and reporting, with timers, kiosk, and detailed, sliceable reports.

Where AgencyKit pulls ahead

  • Online payment collection, so a client can pay the invoice, rather than a PDF you mark paid by hand.
  • Proposals, contracts with electronic signature, and a client portal, none of which Clockify offers.
  • Client management and a full client-to-cash workflow, not just the track-time-and-report slice.
  • Time tracking that flows straight into invoices, on every plan, billed per account.

Time tracking, or the whole workflow

 

Clockify is superb at one job: capturing time and reporting on it. If that is all you need, it is hard to beat, especially free. But the moment you need to send a proposal, get a contract signed, invoice, and take payment online, you are adding several more tools. AgencyKit includes time tracking as one part of the client-to-cash workflow, so hours become invoices and invoices get paid, in one place.

Frequently asked questions

AgencyKit vs Clockify, answered.

Basic invoicing, on the Standard plan and up. It builds invoices from tracked time and exports a PDF, but it cannot collect online payments, so clients pay you offline and you mark the invoice paid by hand. AgencyKit includes invoicing on every plan and online payment collection on the Agency plan.

No. As of April 2026 the free plan is capped at five users, and billable rates and CSV exports moved to paid tiers. It is still generous for time tracking, but the old unlimited-users claim is outdated.

No. Clockify has no proposals, no contracts, and no electronic signature. AgencyKit includes proposals with online acceptance and electronic signature on the Agency plan.

If you already love Clockify for time tracking you can keep it, but AgencyKit includes built-in time tracking on every plan, so many people consolidate and let their hours flow straight into invoices.

AgencyKit. Clockify can produce an invoice PDF but cannot take payment. AgencyKit lets clients pay online, and an accepted proposal or signed contract drafts the invoice for you.
