Connecteam
Connecteam is a mobile app for frontline teams: time clock, scheduling, chat and HR tools. Free up to 10 users; each hub is priced separately above that.
Our take: Connecteam is free for up to 10 users and priced per hub above that, with a flat price for the first 30 users in each hub.
Connecteam is a mobile app for hourly and non-desk teams, covering a time clock, scheduling, forms and tasks, team chat and HR tools. Teams of up to 10 users get every hub free on the Small Business Plan. Above that, each of Connecteam's three hubs is priced on its own, from $29 a month billed yearly ($35 billed monthly) for the first 30 users, and a 14-day trial needs no credit card. The hubs include no payroll product: timesheets go to payroll tools such as Gusto, QuickBooks, Paychex Flex and ADP.
A low-cost start for small frontline teams; price the hubs you need and the payroll tool you will connect before you commit.

From Connecteam's pricing page, checked 29 October 2026. Prices are in USD and are per hub: the Operations, Communications and HR & Skills hubs are each priced separately, and the plan price covers the first 30 users. Yearly prices are shown per month; Connecteam says a yearly plan costs the equivalent of 10 months on a monthly plan. Taxes may be added.
Example monthly costs
| Team | Hubs and plan | Billed yearly (per month) | Billed monthly |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10 users | Any hub, Small Business Plan | $0 | $0 |
| 30 users | Operations, Basic | $29 | $35 |
| 50 users | Operations, Basic | $45 | $55 |
| 50 users | Operations, Advanced | $99 | $119 |
| 30 users | All three hubs, Basic | $87 | $105 |
| 50 users | All three hubs, Basic | $123 | $149 |
Arithmetic on the prices in the table above, not prices Connecteam lists. Each row assumes the same users in every hub on the plan shown and leaves out tax. For 50 users on Operations Basic: $29 + 20 x $0.80 = $45 billed yearly, and $35 + 20 x $1.00 = $55 billed monthly.
