Miter Job Costing vs Workyard

Miter Job Costing is part of a construction platform that combines payroll, compliance reporting, and labor costing for contractors. It tags labor and expenses to jobs and cost codes, then sends the detail to a contractor’s ERP or accounting system. Users can import a chart of accounts and configure cost codes and general-ledger mapping. Miter allocates payroll taxes, workers’ compensation, and benefits across jobs, phases, and cost codes; recurring reimbursements, paid time off, and per diems can also be job-costed. Named integrations include Sage, Acumatica, NetSuite, QuickBooks, Xero, Sage 300 CRE, Viewpoint Spectrum, Viewpoint Vista, CMiC, and Foundation, with custom integrations available through the REST API. Field teams have more than eight time-entry methods, including a mobile app, kiosk, and supervisor entry. Miter’s Production tool tracks equipment usage, materials, and quantities from the jobsite. The service is available on Android, iOS, and the web, as well as through an API. Miter offers onboarding and training and says email support responds the same day. Pricing is on request, based on company size, headcount, and products used.

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.
