Hubstaff tracks time for remote and field teams, with optional screenshots for desk workers and GPS job sites for crews. It can also pay contractors once timesheets are approved.
Hubstaff started as a desktop time tracker with optional screenshots and activity levels for remote workers, and it still offers those: screenshots can be enabled, disabled or blurred. That makes it popular with agencies that bill clients for remote staff.
For field teams, Hubstaff lets you create job sites that clock workers in and out automatically when they arrive and leave, with geofencing. It applies overtime rules when people pass set thresholds, and it covers schedules, attendance and PTO.
Its payroll angle is unusual: approved timesheets can trigger payments through Wise, PayPal or Payoneer, which helps when paying international contractors. It also integrates with Gusto, Deel and QuickBooks.
Hubstaff connects time to payment better than most trackers. Once a manager approves a timesheet, it can trigger a payout through Wise, PayPal or Payoneer, which saves a monthly round of manual transfers for companies with contractors abroad.
For field work, its job sites do more than record GPS: they clock people in and out when they arrive and leave, so a crew does not have to remember to punch. Overtime rules apply when people pass set thresholds, and project budgets track labor cost and expenses.
