With Lion Clock out of business, many users happily turn to TimeClick.
A growing number of Lion Clock users have been unable to contact support and are losing access to their data. With no replies to emails soliciting help and no voicemails answered despite renewing subscriptions, Lion Clock customers are looking elsewhere for suitable replacements. Many former Lion Clock users have found TimeClick to be a great replacement.

Let’s take a look at the similarities and the differences between TimeClick and Lion Clock. Below we have the visual comparison at a glance. For more details on the comparisons, read on.
How are TimeClick and Lion Clock similar?
- Both replace paper time cards. Many users of TimeClick and Lion Clock first found the software when they were looking to replace tedious manual methods. They each automate the time tracking process, making it faster and more accurate.
- Both have direct integration with QuickBooks. Many small to medium-sized businesses use QuickBooks Pro as their accounting software for payroll. TimeClick and Lion Clock have easy QuickBooks integration portals.
- Both can be installed and accessed on the desktop. While you can access LionClock in an online portal, you can install the program on your desktop to clock in and out. TimeClick is installed on the desktop for users to clock in and out.
- Both are affordable solutions. Lion Clock and TimeClick are relatively inexpensive when compared with other time tracking solutions on the market. The savings on payroll time and costs pay for them in no time.
How are they different?
- TimeClick data is stored on your computer so you have full control. As an on-premises time tracking solution, TimeClick is installed on your local network. This gives you full control over backing up, moving, and accessing your data. Downloading the software on your own local network means your data is always accessible on your computers and, unlike Lion Clock or other cloud-based services, will not be withheld if you stop paying a subscription fee because there is no software subscription fee with TimeClick. The software needs registration once on the computer acting as the database host, sometimes referred to as the TimeClick server. After that, you own the software under your licensee name.
- One-time payment for the software. That’s right. You pay for the software once and it’s yours forever. Subscription time tracking companies often require a monthly fee per employee, a monthly base fee, or a yearly fee. TimeClick’s only recurring fee is the TimeClick Unlimited membership which offers unlimited technical support, free version upgrades, and 20% discounts on any license size increases.
- Real, reliable tech support team. We offer best-of-industry technical support via phone, email, and live chat. Our techs are personable, knowledgeable, genuine and are real people! Based out of Logan, Utah, in the U.S., we are open 7 a.m.- 4 p.m. Mountain Standard Time to answer questions and help our customers out.
- Modern interface, still easy to use. Our development team consistently works at making the user experience in TimeClick as easy as possible. The open, clean interface is simple to navigate with a modern look rather than the dated interfaces used by several older software companies, Lion Clock included. And, though it seems a little thing, the screen size and display are completely adjustable.
- Responsive company. When customers find a feature they want to be added to the program, we take note and add those suggestions and requests into the development plans. The most requested features are added first so our customers can have a software that fits their needs. TimeClick is updated on a yearly basis. All customers have the opportunity to upgrade to new versions.

The user experience should not be clunky or ambiguous. Our website is visually appealing with transparency regarding the free trial details, features, access to support, and reviews. Our support blog contains detailed instructions for using the software and business tips for managing employees and compliance with Federal labor laws.
As stated by a current TimeClick user who switched away from Lion Clock when purchasing their business,
“We could not be happier with our decision to use TimeClick for our office. We purchased the business with Lion Clock in place and it turned out to be very cumbersome to use. After some research, we chose TimeClick and haven’t looked back. The update to version 18 was the icing on the cake. It took some tasks that were a little clumsy and made them very simple and intuitive. We have a couple team members that are not huge fans of anything computerized and they manage just fine with TimeClick. We would recommend it to anyone looking for an easy solution to employee time clock management.”
