Proof of work that ClockShark doesn't record
While the timer runs, TimoDesk takes a screenshot every 3 to 60 minutes. Each one is linked to the project and task it came from, with the activity level for that period, so you can check an hour in two clicks.
- Set the interval for the whole team or for each member
- Screenshots taken while a member is idle are thrown away
- Stored with TimoDesk or in your own S3 bucket or FTP server
- On the only plan, at $1 per user per month
See who worked when, and how actively
Team Day shows every member's sessions on one timeline, coloured by activity level. Activity comes from keyboard and mouse counts, and TimoDesk never records what is typed. App and website usage shows where the hours went.
- Hours, last finish and average activity for the whole team
- App and website usage by member, project and task
- Manual time requests with approval
- Windows, macOS and Linux apps, plus the web dashboard
Who each one is right for
ClockShark is a time clock for construction and field service crews, with GPS, scheduling and job costing. Workers clock in from the mobile app or the website.

If your team works on computers, TimoDesk tracks that work for $1 per user, with no base fee.
- GPS tracking and geofencing for field crews
- Drag-and-drop scheduling with draft schedules
- Paid time off, mileage tracking and job costing controls on Pro
- Built-in Spanish language support
- Task checklists and shift wrap-up forms for crews
- A desktop app for Windows, macOS and Linux

- Activity levels and app usage recorded with every session
- No monthly base fee
- About a tenth of the ClockShark per-user price
Choose ClockShark if your crews clock in on job sites and you need GPS, scheduling and job costing. Choose TimoDesk if your team works on computers and you need screenshots and activity levels, at $1 per user with no base fee.
How much you save per year
