The features you'd switch for sit on Toggl's $20 plan.
TrueClock vs Toggl Track: Profitability Without the $20 Plan
Toggl Track is a polished timer. But profitability reporting, cost rates, approvals, and locked timesheets all live on Premium — $20 per user monthly, $14 annual for the first year, renewing at $18. TrueClock includes all of it at $7.99.
Profitability is the point, not the upsell
At Toggl, seeing what a project actually earned requires Premium. At TrueClock, revenue, cost, profit, and margin per client and project are in every seat — it's why the product exists.
The renewal catch
Toggl's $14 annual Premium rate is a first-year price. It renews at $18 per user — a 29% increase before you've changed anything. TrueClock has one public price, and if it ever changes you get 60 days' notice and finish your term at your rate.
Approvals without the tier jump
Timesheet approval workflows and locking approved time are Premium features at Toggl. TrueClock includes approvals, period locking, AI review of submitted timesheets, and automatic anomaly detection for every customer.

Where Toggl Track is ahead
- Native mobile and desktop apps in the app stores — TrueClock runs as a full-screen mobile web app instead, with a native app on the roadmap.
- 100+ browser-extension integrations for starting timers inside other tools.
- Time off tracking on paid plans, and resource scheduling on Premium.
- Invoicing on the Starter plan.
If those are the features your firm runs on, Toggl Track may genuinely be the better fit. TrueClock is built for one job: knowing what every client and project actually earned.
The fine print, plainly

About our price: we are not promising it will never change. If it does, you get 60 days' notice and finish your current term at the rate you signed up for. One price gets you the whole app, and nothing gets pulled out of your plan and sold back to you.
