Summary

Verdict

Choose Paymo if a small or midsize team wants Gantt, a client portal, time, and native invoices in one system. Choose Rabbiit if an agency, consultancy, or software company already organizes work elsewhere—or with a simple list and kanban—and needs to close time, cost, and margin through weekly approval.

At the confirmed monthly price, Paymo Pro costs US$23.90 per user; Rabbiit Ultimate costs US$10 or R$49 per user in the 1–20 user band. Confirm current terms before subscribing.

Stars mean more is better for ease of use, value, and privacy. Price uses bars: fewer green bars = cheaper; yellow bars = mid-range; more red bars = more expensive. Editorial indicators are based on the monthly plan and capabilities verified in September 2026; they are not user ratings.

Where each one wins

Paymo wins on project-management breadth and client billing. Rabbiit wins on a direct close routine: logged hour → approved week → cost → margin, with budget and capacity, without trying to replace a full suite.

The boundary is clear: Rabbiit does not issue or collect invoices, run an employment time clock, or offer Paymo’s advanced planning. It records billed status and exports data to the existing finance process.

FAQ

Who are Paymo and Rabbiit best for?

Paymo is best for teams that want to manage projects and bill clients in the same product. Rabbiit fits agencies, consultancies, and software companies that bill by the hour or need project cost and margin with weekly approval.

Does Rabbiit replace all of Paymo’s project management?

No. Rabbiit offers list and kanban activities tied to time, but it does not replace Gantt, the client portal, or advanced planning.

How does invoicing work in each product?

Paymo issues invoices in the app. Rabbiit does not: it marks hours as billed, calculates values, and exports the data; issuing, collecting, and reconciling invoices remain in the finance system.

How can a team migrate from Paymo to Rabbiit?

Export the available projects, clients, and time from Paymo as CSV, decide which history truly needs to move, and validate the mapping with support. The export can be a migration source and Rabbiit’s API can cover compatible records, but this page does not promise an automatic or complete import.

Does Rabbiit monitor the screen?

No. It tracks project time without screenshots or silent activity recording.

Is Rabbiit time-clock software?

No. It manages project time and margin, not attendance for payroll.
