FAQ
Common questions answered
What is Melororium?
Melororium is a modular team workspace that unifies task management, time tracking, client CRM, and financial reporting in one application. One flat monthly fee for your whole team — from $29/mo. No seat tax, no per-user billing.
How does Melororium replace Everhour pricing?
Unlike Everhour's recurring per-seat billing, Melororium charges one flat monthly fee for your whole team — Starter $29/mo (4 users), Agency $59/mo (10 users), Studio $119/mo (25 users). Add team members and your price doesn't change. No seat tax, no hidden costs.
Is Melororium a good alternative to Everhour?
Yes. Melororium is a strong Everhour alternative for digital agencies, small teams, and studios that need fast project management, built-in time tracking, and financial visibility — without paying per-seat subscription fees.
Is Everhour's integration-dependent model tying your workflow to other subscriptions?
Everhour's core model is to add time tracking inside tools you already use — which means it requires those other subscriptions to work. Melororium eliminates the dependency stack with one owned workspace.
Requires other tools to function
Everhour's value is time tracking inside Asana, Trello, ClickUp, or Linear — which means you must pay for both Everhour and a separate PM tool. Drop the PM tool and Everhour loses most of its functionality.
No invoicing built in
Everhour can integrate with FreshBooks and QuickBooks for invoicing, but it does not generate invoices natively. A complete agency billing workflow requires Everhour + PM tool + invoice software — three separate subscriptions.
Per-seat pricing
Everhour Team costs $8.50/user/month ($1,020/year for 10 users). Add Asana ($25/user/month, $3,000/year for 10 users) and FreshBooks ($45/month), the annual stack cost reaches $4,560/year before any other tools.

COMPETITOR OVERVIEW
What is Everhour? A complete overview for 2026.
Everhour is a time tracking tool that integrates directly inside popular project management platforms, founded in 2015 in Minsk, Belarus by Denis Oreshin. Rather than being a standalone time tracker, Everhour embeds a timer widget inside Asana, Trello, ClickUp, Linear, Basecamp, and Notion — so team members log time without leaving their PM tool. The Team plan costs $8.50/user/month. Everhour's embedded model eliminates tool-switching friction for time logging. However, it fundamentally depends on another tool subscription to function — Everhour without a connected PM tool loses most of its value proposition.
What Everhour does well
Native timer embedding inside Asana, Trello, ClickUp, and Linear — Everhour places a timer button directly on task cards inside the connected PM tool, so team members log time without opening a separate app or browser tab. This eliminates the friction that causes teams to forget time logging in the first place.
Budget tracking and alerts within the PM tool interface — Everhour overlays project budget status and time-to-budget-remaining data directly on project and task views inside Asana or ClickUp, giving project managers budget visibility in the same interface where they manage tasks.
Reporting and invoice generation from tracked hours — Everhour generates time summary reports by client, project, team member, and billable rate, and can export invoice-ready data to FreshBooks, QuickBooks, and Xero — reducing the manual invoice building step for agencies using those billing tools.
Who Everhour is best for
Teams already deeply committed to Asana, ClickUp, or Trello that want to add precise time tracking without switching PM tools and are willing to pay for a third-party timer add-on to keep their existing PM interface. Everhour is the right choice when the team's PM tool is non-negotiable and adding time tracking as an overlay is preferable to switching platforms.
Where it falls short
Requires other tools to function: Everhour's value is time tracking inside Asana, Trello, ClickUp, or Linear — which means you must pay for both Everhour and a separate PM tool. Drop the PM tool and Everhour loses most of its functionality.
No invoicing built in: Everhour can integrate with FreshBooks and QuickBooks for invoicing, but it does not generate invoices natively. A complete agency billing workflow requires Everhour + PM tool + invoice software — three separate subscriptions.
Per-seat pricing: Everhour Team costs $8.50/user/month ($1,020/year for 10 users). Add Asana ($25/user/month, $3,000/year for 10 users) and FreshBooks ($45/month), the annual stack cost reaches $4,560/year before any other tools.
PRICING REALITY CHECK
Everhour pricing in 2026: the real cost for teams.
Before choosing a tool, it's important to calculate the full cost — not just the monthly sticker price, but what your team will actually spend over 2, 3, and 5 years of continued subscription.
Everhour — subscription cost
Everhour Team costs $8.50/user/month ($102/user/year). For 10 users: $1,020/year. The core dependency: Asana Business ($25/user/month, $3,000/year for 10 users) or ClickUp Business ($12/user/month, $1,440/year). Adding FreshBooks ($540/year): Everhour + Asana + FreshBooks = $4,560/year, Everhour + ClickUp + FreshBooks = $3,000/year.
$5,100 for 10 users over 5 years on Everhour Team alone — always requiring a PM tool subscription to function.
Melororium — flat-fee team subscription
$29/mo for 4 users (Starter). $59/mo for 10 users (Agency). $119/mo for 25 users (Studio). No seat tax. No per-user billing. Your team grows — your bill stays the same.
$29–$119/mo flat — one price for your whole team.
Agencies switch from the Everhour + PM tool + FreshBooks stack to Melororium when the realization that dropping any one of the three tools breaks the workflow makes the subscription dependency feel unsustainable. Melororium's native time tracking inside its own project workspace eliminates the tool dependency entirely — one workspace, one payment, all three functions.

SWITCH GUIDE
How to switch from Everhour to Melororium.
Most teams complete the migration in 5–7 days. Here's the process that minimizes disruption while getting your team fully operational on Melororium.
Export your data from Everhour
Export your existing projects, tasks, client contacts, and historical time data from Everhour as CSV or Excel files. Most project management and billing tools support data export from the Account Settings or Admin panel. Check Everhour's Help Center for the exact export path — typically found under Settings → Data → Export. Save the exported files as a backup regardless of whether you proceed with the migration.
Start the Melororium 14-day free demo
Sign up for the Melororium free demo at crm.melororium.com — no credit card required. You get full access to all 12 modules for 14 days: task tracker, kanban boards, time tracking, client CRM, invoicing, work reports, and the full team workspace. Use the demo to explore the interface and confirm Melororium covers your team's workflow before purchasing.
Configure your workspace structure
Set up your client list, project templates, team member profiles, and billing rates in Melororium. Most teams complete the initial workspace setup in 2–4 hours. Import client contacts and project names from the CSV files you exported in Step 1. Configure the modules included with your plan to match your team's specific workflow — kanban boards, time tracking, CRM, and invoicing are ready to use out of the box.
Run both tools in parallel for one week
Keep Everhour active while your team tests Melororium on a live project for one week. This parallel-run period is the most important step: it lets your team build confidence in the new tool without the pressure of a hard cutover, and ensures no in-flight project work gets lost during the transition. Track time in Melororium, manage tasks in Melororium, and let the team ask questions before fully switching over.
Purchase Melororium and cancel Everhour
Once the team is comfortable with the Melororium workspace after the parallel-run week, purchase your plan — from $29/mo (Starter, 4 users) to $59/mo (Agency, 10 users) to $119/mo (Studio, 25 users). Log into Everhour and cancel your subscription to stop the recurring charge. The migration is complete: your team now runs on Melororium — one flat monthly fee, no seat tax, no price increase as the team grows.
Frequently asked questions about Everhour alternatives.
What is the best Everhour alternative in 2026?
Melororium is the best Everhour alternative for agencies that want native time tracking without requiring a separate PM tool subscription. Everhour Team costs $8.50/user/month ($1,020/year for 10 users) and requires Asana or ClickUp to function as intended. Melororium Agency: $59/mo flat for 10 users — time tracking, project management, CRM, and invoicing natively integrated.
Does Everhour work without Asana or ClickUp?
Everhour's value proposition depends on embedding time tracking inside Asana, Trello, ClickUp, or Linear. Without those tools, Everhour's usefulness is significantly reduced. This means Everhour users always pay for at least two subscriptions — Everhour plus a PM tool. Melororium eliminates the dependency with native time tracking inside a built-in project workspace.
Can Melororium replace Everhour?
Yes. Melororium provides native time tracking inside the same project workspace where tasks live — no separate tool dependency, no export step, no dual subscription. Teams running Everhour + Asana + FreshBooks replace all three with Melororium's $59/mo flat team fee — no seat tax.
Is the monthly fee really team-wide?
Yes. One flat monthly fee covers your whole team — Starter $29/mo (4 users), Agency $59/mo (10 users), Studio $119/mo (25 users). Add a new team member and your price doesn't change. No seat tax, no per-user billing.
