Jibble: time tracking that's truly different
I’m Asim Qureshi, CEO of Jibble, and a former Vice President at Morgan Stanley and Credit Suisse.
Listen, I didn’t leave all that behind just to build another time tracking software! Jibble is truly different, and I’m going to tell you why in most cases, choosing QuickBooks Time over Jibble simply doesn’t add up. Let me briefly give you an overview of you why your team needs to be jibbling, not quickbooks-timing… not only because it rolls off the tongue way better, but because Jibble offers you so much more.

Why seek QuickBooks Time alternatives?
Explore better time tracking solutions
Jibble's Upgrade PlansQuickBooks Time, formerly known as TSheets, is a fairly respectable time tracking solution, but it’s not the solution it’s all hyped up to be. Some users report that it’s not the best for desk workers, and their experience was negatively affected by bugs that compromise the reliability of its functions. It’s also priced at the higher side of things, which limits its pool of prospective users. Third-party integrations are also relatively limited, and even its integrations with the QuickBooks family of productivity tools can be less-than-impressive at times. In addition to that, QuickBooks Time lacks several important features such as biometric recognition, advanced reporting capabilities, and expense tracking, which severely limits its functionalities.
QuickBooks Time is still a respectable tool for time tracking, but if you need more robust and comprehensive features, Jibble is your best bet. Check out my honest review of QuickBooks Time to learn more about its strengths and weaknesses.

Higher ratings on review platforms
And more likelihood to be recommended by highly satisfied users
Jibble shines with the good things that real users have to say about their experiences across reputable review sites. We have better ratings in Capterra (4.8/5), G2 (4.6/5), GetApp (4.7/5), Software Advice (4.8/5), Play Store (4.7/5), and the App Store (4.8/5), compared to QuickBooks Time in the same platforms — Capterra (4.7/5), G2 (4.5/5), GetApp (4.8/5), Software Advice (4.7/5), Play Store (4.5/5), and the App Store (4.6/5).
We’re also listed by Software Advice in FrontRunners 2023, an award for usability and customer satisfaction based on user reviews. Jibble is also more likely to be recommended by very satisfied users, and that only speaks to the power they’ve found in what we offer.

Lower pricing structure
Significantly less cost without sacrificing functionality and reliability
QuickBooks Time comes in two paid plans — the Premium plan with a $20 monthly base fee plus $8 per user per month, and the Elite plan with a $40 monthly base fee plus $10 per user per month. Although it comes with a free 30-day trial period, it does not have a free plan, which is quite unfortunate.
Luckily, Jibble has a 100% FREE forever plan with a generous feature arsenal, and our paid plans have more comprehensive features. The Jibble Premium plan only costs $2.49 per user per month, and the Ultimate plan is only $4.99 per user per month. That’s a very significant cut in cost… and considering the wealth of features and more reliable performance, Jibble offers the better deal.

A better time tracking experience, anywhere
On the go and on your desk, with ease
Mobile time trackingQuickBooks Time works okay on mobile devices and for tracking time on the go (when the geolocation gets things right), but the complexity, feature overlap, and overall UI design of the desktop and web versions pose quite a challenge, especially for desk workers.
Jibble users enjoy a friendlier and more streamlined time tracking experience with a cleaner interface on all platforms with clearly compartmentalized features. Plus, our advanced geolocation helps ensure that employees are clocked in from the right place, at the right time — no more weird location logs far from where they actually are!
-
Track time using MS Team or Slack
...which is something that QuickBooks Time doesn't have
Here at Jibble, we know that MS Teams and Slack are essentials to the modern workplace, so we’ve come up with solutions to allow you to track time straight from these platforms. Managers can see their time entries, gain visibility on who’s currently working on what, and how they’re progressing on tasks within a matter of clicks.
-
Automated timesheet calculations
Error-free payroll processing
With Jibble, employees only need to choose from our various time tracking options that suit their needs the best, and our platform will handle the rest. Worked hours are automatically populated into timesheets that employees and managers can access, and time entries are automatically calculated and categorized into worked hours and overtime hours, including breaks and time off, so it’s payroll-ready at all times — something that QuickBooks Time requires other QuickBooks tools for.
Jibble allows managers to view and approve timesheets anytime using any device using only one tool for efficient and error-free payroll that cuts away at the time and costs usually associated with processing.
-
Detailed and highly-customizable analytics
Powerful insights for data-driven decision-making
Reporting and AnalyticsGood reports are the backbone of great decisions. While QuickBooks Time offers an array of options for reporting on the data gathered in time tracking, it’s not on the same level of customizability that Jibble offers.
Jibble allows you to dive deep into your data and make sense of how time is spent across projects and tasks by your teams. Our highly customizable reports can be configured to show you the results you need in the analytic structure that your unique needs require.

Next-level technology
Facial recognition and GPS tracking for superior security and accountability
Set up facial recognitionJibble’s facial recognition feature boosts security by ensuring that only authorized people can access the system, compared to QuickBooks Time’s photo capture upon sign-in which merely captures a selfie for managers to review later. Advanced geolocation technology gives you visibility about the current locations of your teams and where they clocked in from. These help give your business optimal security and enable you precisely track to track employees in real-time.
And because nobody likes time thieves, these Jibble features also help protect your business from losing money to buddy punching and other unscrupulous time theft practices — now that’s hitting multiple birds with one app!
-
Well-integrated with third-party tools
Automated data flow so you can focus on what truly matters

Jibble understands this to a T, and integrates with a wide array of your favorite work tools, automating data exchange to and from the target software so you can worry less about getting it right, like you would with QuickBooks Time’s relatively limited integration options.
-

Plus, Jibble’s API gives you almost infinite integration possibilities, and we even have an integration with QuickBooks for a complete QuickBooks timesheet solution.

FAQs
Some frequently asked questions...
Jibble is the new standard in time tracking and is the ultimate alternative to QuickBooks Time due to several key distinctions:
- Generous Free Plan and Comprehensive Features – Jibble’s free plan has a very generous array of features that are usually enough to serve the needs of most small businesses without costing them a single cent. The paid plans offer even more power. In contrast, QuickBooks Time does not have a free plan and has a relatively steep monthly base fee on top of their plans’ per-user fees.
- Time Tracking Options – Aside from the timers, kiosks, and manual entries offered by QuickBooks, Jibble also allows users to track time straight from modern workplace essentials like MS Teams and Slack.
- Emphasis on Security, Accuracy, and Accountability – Compared to QuickBooks Time’s selfie upon sign-in (that managers can review later), Jibble’s facial recognition technology does a better job of ensuring that only authorized people can access the system, and never on behalf of a colleague. Meanwhile, our geolocation feature also helps to accurately log clock-in land current locations compared to QuickBooks Time, which is known to sometimes log locations away from where employees actually are. Together, these features help eliminate buddy punching and other time theft shenanigans that cost businesses significant amounts of money every year.
- Reporting and Analytics – Jibble’s advanced reporting and analytics provide valuable insights that can be configured to fit unique data analytic requirements for better data-driven decision-making.
