OnTheClock alternative

A simpler OnTheClock alternative for employee time tracking

OnTheClock charges a monthly base fee plus an employee charge — so every time you hire someone, your software bill goes up. KLOCKED is $120 per year for the whole company, period.

$120 per company per year

Unlimited employees. Every feature included. One price per year.

Try KLOCKED for 30 days. If it doesn't work for your business, get a full refund.

Why people switch

OnTheClock is a legitimate time clock with solid features. The problem is the pricing structure: a base fee every month, plus a per-employee charge on top. Add five employees and the annual cost climbs. KLOCKED removes that math entirely — one company price, unlimited employees, no monthly bill.

The same time-clock features without the per-employee bill

OnTheClock and KLOCKED cover similar ground: clock-in, clock-out, breaks, timesheets, corrections, overtime, and payroll exports. The difference is how they charge for it. OnTheClock stacks a base fee plus a per-employee monthly charge. KLOCKED is one annual price for the company. Same core tools, very different cost structure as the team grows.

Add employees freely. The price does not move.

One annual price for the whole company

KLOCKED costs $120 per year for the company. Adding another employee or manager does not change the price.

The same company price applies if the team grows beyond these examples. View KLOCKED pricing details.

OnTheClock uses a monthly base fee plus an employee charge. Adding employees raises the bill, and location or GPS needs may affect setup.

What KLOCKED doesn't do — and why that's fine

KLOCKED is a time clock. It doesn't try to be everything.

If you need those things, OnTheClock or a larger platform might be worth the cost. If you just need accurate hours and clean payroll records, KLOCKED is enough.

Getting started takes about ten minutes

No sales call. No demo request. No custom quote. Just sign up, add your employees, and start tracking time.

  1. Create your company account
  2. Add employees and managers
  3. Set up the shared clock if your team needs it
  4. Configure overtime and time-off rules
  5. Start tracking hours

Export your records from your current system before canceling — KLOCKED doesn't import historical data.
