Crew Active vs Clockodo
Clockodo is office time tracking — not built for site crews or field teams.
Clockodo is one of the best-known German time tracking vendors, but with a clear focus: agencies, law firms, and consultancies that work at a desk and book project hours against clients. What Clockodo does not offer: drag-and-drop scheduling, GPS time tracking on site, team chat as a WhatsApp replacement, and industry features for cleaning, landscaping, or construction. If you plan crews on client sites or job sites, you need more than pure project time tracking.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Clockodo an alternative to Crew Active?
Only for completely different use cases. Clockodo is built for office teams that book project hours against clients. Crew Active is built for businesses with field workers — construction sites, cleaning objects, landscaping projects. The two products solve different problems.
Does Clockodo have scheduling?
No. Clockodo offers no scheduling or shift feature, no drag-and-drop planning, and no site assignments. If you need that, you have to switch to a different solution like Crew Active.
Does Clockodo have GPS time tracking?
No. Clockodo does not support GPS-verified time tracking at a job site. Employees clock in via app or web browser without location proof. For site-based working hours and legally compliant documentation, Crew Active is the better choice.
Which is cheaper — Clockodo or Crew Active?
Clockodo looks slightly cheaper at around €4.90/user/month, but you only get time tracking — no scheduling, no team chat. If you need both, Clockodo quickly forces you into two or three tools. Crew Active covers everything in one — from €5/user/month, cheaper overall.
