Detailed comparison by topic
Pricing & total cost of ownership
One plan, every feature: ₹120/user/month + GST ($5/user/month outside India). Pay upfront for 6 months (5% off) or 12 months (10% off). That one price covers time tracking, attendance, leave, invoicing, the client portal and screenshots. For a 20-person team that is ₹2,400/month + GST ($100/month outside India), paid upfront for 6 or 12 months.
Hubstaff publishes per-seat prices in USD: Starter $7, Grow $9 and Team $12/seat/month billed monthly ($4.99, $7.50 and $10 billed annually), with a 2-seat minimum (hubstaff.com/pricing, as of 29 Oct 2026). Client invoices are included from Starter. If you bill Indian clients, check whether those invoices carry the fields you need, such as client GSTIN.
One platform instead of a stack
Built for how Indian teams bill: client GSTIN on invoices, one GST rate per invoice from your saved rates, invoice numbers that restart each Indian financial year, and TDS recorded when you log a payment. India holiday presets, and your own custom holidays.
Trakkar puts time tracking, projects, attendance and leave, invoicing and a client portal under one per-user price, with screenshots. GST invoices and quotations are created in Trakkar too. For WFH and hybrid teams, see remote employee tracking software for India.
Feature depth & tool consolidation
One account covers time tracking, attendance, leave, projects and tasks, invoices and quotations, and a client portal. Tasks run on a Kanban board, where you drag cards between your own status columns, and a timeline (Gantt-style) view shows tasks by project. Each project can have its own workflow, with your own statuses and the moves you allow between them, plus ready-made HR automations. The async daily standup fills itself in from yesterday's tasks and time. For people changes, there are onboarding and offboarding checklists, and when someone leaves, their work is handed over to a colleague. Project margins compare each project's value with its cost to date.
Hubstaff's pricing page lists time tracking and client invoices on every plan, and attendance, scheduling and time off on Team and up (hubstaff.com/pricing, as of 29 Oct 2026). Check whether its invoices handle GST for Indian clients.
