The Verdict
Clockify is built for teams and agencies, with a focus on time-tracking and timesheets. Taiga targets agile teams and open source advocates and leads with scrum-boards and kanban.
Pricing is close: Clockify starts at $3.99/mo versus $5/mo for Taiga — not a deciding factor on its own.
Both offer free plans, so you can test each with your real workflow before committing to a subscription.
Feature-wise, Clockify offers broader built-in capabilities (7 features vs 6), while Taiga takes a more focused approach — which can mean a simpler, faster onboarding experience.
Bottom line: Clockify has a slight overall edge — but if fully open-source and self-hostable matters most to you, Taiga may still be the right call.
