Clox is time tracking built for hourly trades and field crews: electricians, plumbers, HVAC, roofers, landscapers, general contractors, and other field teams. Workers clock in from their phones in one tap. Punches work offline and sync when signal returns, every hour is tagged to a job and task for costing, and geofenced worksites block off-site clock-ins for the crews you choose. Crews that share one device can punch with a PIN on a tablet kiosk, with an optional clock-in photo. Managers approve the week on the web, and overtime, breaks, lunch rules, and multi-rate pay calculate automatically. Exports are payroll-ready for QuickBooks Online and Desktop, ADP RUN, ADP Workforce Now, Paychex Flex, and Gusto, so there's no re-keying. Every punch is signed and tamper-evident, and anyone can verify a record. One plan with everything included: $29 a month covers 3 users, then $6 per user. Free 14-day trial, no credit card, and a 30-day money-back guarantee.

Jobkeepr is field service management software for small contractor businesses: handymen, TV installers, plumbers, electricians, HVAC techs and other home service operators running crews of one to ten. Most field service platforms are priced and designed for companies with a dispatcher and fifteen trucks. If you are the dispatcher, the driver and the person sending invoices, that software costs more time than it saves. Jobkeepr is built for the other end of the market. Core features: job tracking with address, photos, notes and line items; a mobile-friendly crew calendar; estimates customers approve from their phone; invoices with online payment; customer CRM and job history; job-level profit and margin tracking; and two-way SMS with customers for appointments, estimates and invoices. Pricing is $39/month for the owner and $10/month per additional team member. No per-job fees, no setup fees and no long-term contract. The free trial runs 14 days.
