Why Freelancers Choose TimerMVP Over FreshBooks

Key advantages that make the difference for independent professionals.

Time Tracking That Actually Works

FreshBooks' time tracker is an afterthought. TimerMVP was built around it — multi-timer, breaks, activity density, and session notes come standard.

CRM & Lead Pipeline

Track leads from prospect to won/lost with conversion analytics. FreshBooks doesn't have any CRM or pipeline features.

70% Lower Cost

FreshBooks starts at $21/mo for the Plus plan. TimerMVP is $9.99/mo with no client limits — saving you over $130/year.
