Harvest

Invoicing and bookkeeping that costs nothing

Wave does invoicing and bookkeeping at no cost, so it suits a freelancer who bills flat fees per project rather than hours that need timing first.

Time tracking that stays free for a small team

Toggl Track covers the time tracking and stays free for a small team, with paid plans at the same $9; Harvest's pitch is the invoice written straight from the timesheet.

Invoicing with a free plan that stays free

Invoicely keeps a free plan that stays free and adds paid tiers from $9.99, a plain invoicing tool for anyone who does not need Harvest's time tracking at all.

Open-source invoicing, free for 5 clients

Invoice Ninja is open-source invoicing free for up to 5 clients, from $14 a month beyond that, for billing flat amounts rather than tracked hours.

Time tracking free for up to five people

Clockify keeps time tracking free for up to five people and starts paid plans at $3.99, undercutting Harvest for anyone who mostly needs the hours counted.

Invoicing built for freelancers, not accountants

FreshBooks comes at the same freelancer billing problem from the invoicing side, from $23 a month with a free trial rather than a lasting free plan.

The freelance business in one place

Moxie bundles the whole freelance business in one place from $12 a month, where Harvest sticks to the narrower job of hours that become invoices.
