TimeClick review
A Windows-based attendance system with local storage, mobile clock-ins and payroll exports.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
TimeClick is employee time and attendance software for small businesses that want a Windows-based, self-hosted setup. It stores data locally on a Windows server and covers employee clock-ins and clock-outs, automatic overtime calculations, paid and unpaid breaks, PTO, job and department tracking, payroll-ready reports, and mobile clock-ins through iOS and Android apps. Pricing is based on devices rather than employees, with unlimited employees included in the core license.
The 1 Device License costs $299 one time for one computer and includes lifetime ownership, unlimited users, and one free year of TimeClick Unlimited. TimeClick Unlimited then costs $149 per year and adds unlimited U.S.-based support, access to new releases, and access to the mobile app. A 14-day free trial is available without a card. The mobile app requires at least a 2-device license, so teams planning mobile attendance should budget beyond the entry license.
TimeClick connects with QuickBooks Online, QuickBooks Desktop, Gusto, ADP Workforce Now, and CSV imports, giving payroll teams several export paths. Deployment remains centered on Windows, with iOS and Android serving as mobile clock-in clients rather than replacing the desktop system. Small organizations that value local data storage, one-time licensing, and straightforward attendance tracking should find the model suitable. Teams seeking a browser-first system, broader platform flexibility, or more extensive workflow controls should consider another option.
