Contractor Time vs Workyard

Contractor Time is web-based time and job management software for contractors. It includes GPS location tracking and geofencing to show where work is being performed. The Standard plan lists unlimited customers and unlimited jobs at $5 a month, with a Plus refundable 500 USD setup fee billed alongside it. A Customizable plan includes Standard features and adds custom features that are scoped and quoted separately. Pricing starts at 5.0 /user/mo, and a 30-day trial is available. Contractor Time has no free plan and has operated since 2019. The service is offered through the web only. Teams considering the Standard plan need to account for the setup-fee condition, while buyers seeking tailored functionality must request a quote because no Customizable price is listed. Its core location features are GPS tracking and geofencing, paired with the stated customer and job capacity.

Workyard is a construction operations and workforce management platform for specialty contractors and self-performing general contractors. Its GPS time clock records addresses visited, time on site, driving trips, mileage, and travel time. Location collection is limited to clocked-in time and stops at clock-out; location is hidden during breaks. Teams can require time to be assigned to projects or cost codes, with labor costs calculated at clock-out. Workers can clock in by mobile app, shared iPad kiosk, or automatic geofence; supervisors can track crews. Starter includes GPS-verified time, breaks and overtime, timesheet reports, and notes, receipts, and photos. Pro adds office-to-field scheduling, tasks, checklists, and project cost reporting. Autopilot adds AI timekeeping, compliance tools, and API access. Workyard connects with payroll and accounting services including ADP, Gusto, QuickBooks, Sage, NetSuite, Paychex, Paycor, and Rippling. It runs on web, iOS, and Android. There is no free plan; a 14-day trial is offered without a credit card. Starter is $6 a month, billed annually; monthly billing is also available.
