Why teams switch

Where Clox is the better fit.

01

Cheaper for a small crew, every feature included

ClockShark charges a $40 to $60 base plus $9 to $11 per user. A 6-person crew on Standard is about $94/month. Clox is $47 for the same crew, and geofencing, scheduling, and PTO are all included instead of gated to a higher tier.

02

Modern interface

ClockShark's interface leans on multi-step forms and dense menus. Clox is built for one-tap punches and no training.

03

Every feature on the one paid plan

ClockShark gates PTO, multi-office controls, and advanced job costing behind their Pro tier, and applies a three-year contract term to all plans. Clox gives you everything on the one paid plan, month to month.
