Paymo is a project management tool first, with time tracking and invoicing built in. Its free plan includes unlimited time tracking, unlimited invoices, unlimited tasks with a list view, desktop and mobile apps and 1GB of storage, limited to one user, one client and two projects. That suits a freelancer working for a single client who wants tasks, hours and invoices in one place. Growth costs more here than with dedicated trackers. Solo is $9.90 a month after a current offer of $5.90 for three months and lifts limits to three clients and five projects for one user. Timesheet reports, bulk time entries, project profitability and recurring invoices start on Plus at $15.90 per user per month after the offer, and timesheet approvals on Pro. Paid plans have a 15 day trial with no card required. Paymo is a fair free pick for one person, but teams after free timesheets should look higher on this list.
