For most small businesses a cloud time clock costs between $20 and $300 a month, depending on headcount and features. With EZTime, a team of up to 10 pays the $20 monthly minimum on the Essential plan, a team of 20 pays $40 to $120, and a team of 50 pays $100 to $300. Our recommendation for most small teams: start on the Advanced plan with the phone app plus a tablet kiosk, and add NFC tags if you have fixed sites.
To record clock-ins, breaks and overtime automatically, see EZTime time and attendance software.
