Toggl is built for trust. Timemoz adds proof that gets you paid.
Toggl Track has no screenshots at any tier, and timesheet approvals sit on Premium at $18 per seat — $2,160 a year for ten people. Timemoz gives you privacy-first proof and approvals on the free plan.
Unlimited users and projects · 2-seat minimum · No credit card
Source: toggl.com/track/pricing, verified 19 August 2026. Premium $18 per seat per month on annual billing, $20 monthly.
Client asks what was done. You export a CSV and hope.
Auto-blur, approve, invoice with proof attached.
Toggl charges $18 per seat for what Timemoz includes free
Approvals, labor costs, and profitability all sit above the line. If you bill clients by the hour, that is the line you cross first.
$0 — capped at 5 users
Time tracking, reports, calendar integrations, browser extension. No billable rates. No approvals. No screenshots, ever.
$9 per seat
Billable rates, project estimates, budget alerts. Still no approval workflow — nothing stands between a tracked hour and the invoice.
$18 per seat
Approvals, labor costs, profitability, scheduled reports. For ten people that is $180 a month — even if only the manager needs to approve anything.
The $14 you may have seen is a first-year rate
Toggl advertises Premium at $14 per licence per month, with an asterisk: that price applies to the first year of an annual Premium subscription, then renews at $18. Worth putting in your three-year budget rather than your first invoice.
| Ten-seat team | Toggl Premium | Timemoz Free |
|---|---|---|
| Year 1 | $1,680 | $0 |
| Year 2 | $2,160 | $0 |
| Year 3 | $2,160 | $0 |
| Three-year total | $6,000 | $0 |
Year two rises by $480 with no new features. By then your data, habits, and integrations are already in place.
Real feedback from a Timemoz customer — not a Toggl switcher, but proof the platform holds up in daily use
“Timemoz has been really helpful for HR needs — everything runs in one platform, from keeping an eye on team productivity to handling attendance and payroll. It's a solid, practical tool that just gets the job done.”
Seats do not shrink cleanly
Toggl bills per seat, annually, upfront. Reviewers report that removing a seat mid-term does not produce a prorated refund. For an agency whose headcount follows client load, that is paid capacity you are not using.
Free versus free is the real gap
Toggl Free caps at five users with no proof and no approvals. Timemoz Free has no user cap, includes approvals, and includes optional screenshots. Same price, different ceiling.

Trust does not settle a disputed invoice
Toggl's no-screenshot stance is a genuine philosophy, not an oversight. The question is who absorbs the cost of it when a client asks what happened during those six hours.
No screenshots, by policy
- ✕No screenshot feature on any plan, stated openly in their help centre
- ✕No activity levels, no app or URL record to reconstruct a session
- ✕A forgotten timer leaves nothing to rebuild the day from
Excellent for solo consultants on retainer. Harder when a client queries a line item three weeks later.
Privacy shield, on the free plan
- ✓Optional screenshots, blurred by default, captured only while the timer runs
- ✓Activity levels from mouse and keyboard frequency — no keystroke logging
- ✓App and URL tracking while the timer runs, visible to the person tracked
- ✓Team members can blur and clear their own captures
Enough evidence to defend an invoice. Not enough to make good people quit.
You chase timesheets. Toggl charges $18 to stop chasing.
This is the one that catches teams out. Everyone tracks happily for months, then month-end arrives and the approve button does not exist.
No approval workflow
You message people on Slack asking them to submit. Nothing locks after submission. Payroll waits on whoever replies last.
Approvals unlocked at $18
$2,160 a year for ten seats. Approvals are a plan-level feature, not a role, so you pay for the whole team to give one manager a button.
Approvals from day one
Submit, review, approve or reject with comments, auto-lock after approval, full edit trail. Included at $0.
A report should produce an invoice, not more work
Toggl reporting
- ✕Export CSV, clean it in a spreadsheet, add your logo, convert to PDF
- ✕Scheduled reports require Premium — free users repeat it manually
- ✕No proof to bundle, because there is no proof to capture
Timemoz client reports
- ✓Approved hours, activity levels, and blurred proof in one export
- ✓Free plan: view in app, three exports a month
- ✓Pro $5.99: unlimited exports, PDF and branded client link, permanent history
Four things teams discover after thirty days on Toggl
Recurring themes across G2 and Capterra, not marketing copy.
Timers left running overnight
Close the laptop without stopping and you invoice fourteen hours. Toggl's free plan has no idle detection. Timemoz prompts you to keep or discard idle time on every plan.
Sync lag between desktop and browser
Entries appear in one place and not the other, and reviewers report slow Windows app start. When you bill in six-minute increments, that friction kills adoption.
No daily capacity view
You cannot tell whether someone has six hours left or is already overbooked. Timemoz shows an in-app badge when a project passes its budget threshold, free.
Nothing to reconstruct from
With no screenshots, activity levels, or app records, a forgotten timer means the hours are simply gone. Clients dispute, and you have nothing to show.

Switching takes an afternoon, not a quarter
No sales call, no credit card, and no need to cancel Toggl on day one.
- 1Export from TogglReports → Export. Two clicks. Projects, clients, and tags come with it.
- 2Upload to TimemozDrop the CSV in. Fields map automatically, rates and entries preserved.
- 3Run both for a weekInvite your team, keep Toggl live in parallel, then cancel at your renewal date.
Cancel at renewal rather than mid-term — Toggl bills annually upfront and reviewers report no prorated refund for seats removed part-way through.
Where Toggl wins, and we will say so
Two areas where they are genuinely ahead. If either describes you, stay where you are.
A much larger integration catalogue
Toggl: 100+ integrations plus a browser extension covering a long tail of niche tools, built since 2007, with native Jira and Salesforce on Premium.
Timemoz: Slack, ClickUp, Discord, and Telegram — the tools most agencies run their day in, and nothing beyond that yet.
Best for: teams whose workflow depends on a specific sync running untouched.
Simpler if you never need proof
Toggl: A one-click timer with an excellent autotracker and calendar integrations. Genuinely the nicer daily experience for solo work.
Timemoz: The same one-click timer, with approvals and proof attached. That is more surface area if you never use it.
Best for: solo consultants who bill on trust and never approve anyone's hours.
