How every row is computed

  • For each team size, the cheapest paid plan with a published US price in USD that allows that many users. Plans sold only on quote are not counted.
  • Monthly billing and annual billing are computed apart; annual is the yearly total divided by 12. A price with no billing term next to it is not counted, except a price per month on a page that offers no yearly billing at all (no monthly or annual switch, no mention of yearly billing), which is counted as month to month.
  • Seat minimums, seat packs and user caps are applied, required add-ons and mandatory vendor fees are added, one-time setup fees are shown apart. A free plan is never the cost; whether it covers the team is shown apart.
  • Each price is confirmed on the vendor's live page by two AI checkers from different model families, each quoting the page word for word. A price that is not confirmed is left out; a higher plan left out this way is skipped only when, at its last read price, it costs more than the cheapest confirmed plan.
  • Not counted: taxes, usage (AI credits, contacts, tickets, overages), plans capped by usage volume (tickets or conversations a month), discounts shown only in the cart, behind a code or for a limited time, and optional add-ons.
  • Rows are ordered by computed cost. No score, no rank of our own; sponsored or paid status never changes inclusion or order.
  • A confirmation counts for 14 days: a tool not re-confirmed in that time leaves the tables until it is.

Excluded, and why

Tools we considered and left out of the tables. A tool comes back as soon as its prices are confirmed on its own page.
  • ClickTime: Every plan is bought through a demo request; the page shows only a "from $12/user/month" Starter price, with no billing term and no price for the other plans.
  • DeskTime: Its pricing URL returns a 404 page, so no price could be read.
  • Hubstaff: Its pricing page shows per-user prices without saying whether they are billed monthly or annually, so a team total cannot be stated.
  • Jibble: Its pricing URL redirects to the homepage, which shows only the free plan; no paid plan price appears in any read.

About this benchmark

Why it exists. A vendor's page tells you its own price per user. This page applies one method to every tool, under the same conditions, so the totals can be compared: seat minimums, seat packs, user caps and required fees are applied the same way for all.

Independence. Toolradar sells advertising, including sponsored placements on some pages. Sponsored or paid status never changes which tools are included here or their order: inclusion is the list of tools considered (all shown, in the tables or under Excluded) and order is the computed cost. There is no score or rank of our own on this page. See how we rate.
