ClockShark: when it makes sense.

ClockShark is ideal for service companies with mobile teams; for office-only or simple timesheet, other tools suffice.

Keep if

You manage field teams (construction, services).. You need GPS location tracking to verify presence.

ClockShark becomes worthwhile when

You use it at least once a week
The monthly cost (€45) is small next to the time it saves you

Challenge if

Your team works entirely from office.. You're looking for timesheet-only tool.

ClockShark becomes too expensive when

You use it less than once a month
A simple free version or a tool already in your stack would do

Our verdict on ClockShark.
