TimeGoals vs Everhour: Asana Time Tracking for Freelancers and Small Teams

Everhour is one of the best-known ways to track time inside Asana, and it's a genuinely good product. If you're a freelancer or a small agency, though, the question that matters is how much you'll pay to track time on Asana tasks and bill clients for it.

The short version

Both tools add a timer to your Asana tasks, and both can turn tracked time into invoices. The big difference is pricing. Everhour's paid Team plan is priced per seat with a 5-seat minimum, so even a solo freelancer pays for five. TimeGoals Pro is a flat $12/month no matter how many clients or projects you have.

Pricing comparison

| | TimeGoals | Everhour | |---|---|---| | Free plan | Yes, with 1 project and the Asana timer | Yes, for up to 5 seats with limited features | | Paid plan | $12/mo flat (Pro), $29/mo for teams (Agency) | $8.50 per seat/mo billed annually (Team), 5-seat minimum | | Cost for a solo freelancer | $12/mo, or $10/mo billed yearly | About $42.50/mo (5 seats × $8.50) | | Invoicing | Yes, on Pro and Agency | Yes, on Team | | Free trial | 14 days, no card | 14 days, no card |

Where Everhour wins

Deeper Asana integration. Everhour connects to Asana through its API, so time and estimates can show up inside Asana itself.
More integrations. It also works with Jira, Trello, ClickUp, Basecamp and more. If your clients spread you across several PM tools, that breadth matters.
Bigger-team features. Budgets, resource planning, SSO and advanced permissions are built for teams well past five people.

Where TimeGoals wins

Priced for one person, or a handful. There's no seat minimum. A freelancer pays for one account, not five.
Invoicing is the point, not an add-on. Clients, per-project rates, estimates, expenses and PDF invoices are core to TimeGoals, and clients can pay invoices online through Stripe.
Nothing to configure in Asana. The extension reads the task you're looking at, so it works on any Asana plan and needs no admin approval for an API connection. New Asana projects link to TimeGoals projects automatically the first time you track them.

Bottom line

If you're a team of 10 or more that lives in Asana and wants time data inside Asana's own reports, Everhour is built for you. If you're a freelancer or a small agency that wants a timer on Asana tasks and an invoice at the end of the month, without paying for seats you don't have, TimeGoals is built for exactly that.
