The Problem with QuickBooks Time
QuickBooks Time (formerly TSheets) is an incredibly powerful tool for payroll and accounting, but it has a fatal flaw: its interface was designed for accountants, not for the people actually doing the work. Forcing engineers, designers, and creatives to use a clunky, dropdown-heavy accounting interface to log their daily hours guarantees that they will procrastinate and complain. The friction is simply too high.
Velotime: The Faster QuickBooks Time Alternative
Velotime bridges this gap by providing an interface that your team will actually love using. Our spreadsheet-style matrix lets your team log their hours in seconds using just their keyboard. You get the compliance and timesheet completion rates you need, and you can easily export the data to QuickBooks for your accounting team to handle payroll. It’s the best of both worlds.
Pricing: Velotime vs QuickBooks Time
QuickBooks Time charges a heavy base fee plus an average of $10 per user per month. Velotime charges absolutely no base fees, and just a flat $5 per seat per month.
