Short answer: for a team of up to three that needs proof of work, TrustHours' free plan includes a limited number of screenshots. Clockify is a good free timer without screenshots, and Toggl Track is free for up to three people.
| Tool | Free plan | Screenshots | Good for |
|---|---|---|---|
| TrustHours | Up to 3 users | Limited number, kept 2 weeks | Proof of work, growing teams |
| Clockify | Yes | Not stated | A simple free timer |
| Toggl Track | Up to 3 users | No, by design | Trust-first teams |
TrustHours
Free for up to 3 users: live board, timesheets, a limited number of screenshots, paid breaks and an employee view. Windows app, dashboard in any browser. When you grow, paid plans add activity tracking, payroll, chat and screenshot controls, with a 14-day trial and no card.
Clockify
A free plan with timesheets and reports. Its pricing page does not list screenshots, so it suits teams that trust the timer.
Toggl Track
Free for up to three people. It rejects screenshots on principle, so it suits trust-first teams.
How to choose
If you only need a timer, either of the last two is fine. If you need proof of work or want room to grow into payroll and chat, start with TrustHours.
