What eTimesheets.com does

eTimesheets.com is a privately held, Herndon, Virginia-based SaaS provider founded in 1999 by Bill MacKrell that delivers web-based, DCAA-compliant timesheet and attendance software for US government contractors. Its product portfolio consists of two tiers: Essentials, priced at $10 per user per month with core time tracking, 20+ reports, approval workflows, DCAA compliance, mobile/tablet access, clock in/out, custom fields, and timesheet comments; and Pro, a contact-priced tier that adds custom integrations, custom reporting, custom branding, custom workflows, and professional services. The platform is built around multi-level job costing (up to 10 sub-levels per charge, e.g., Client → Project → Task → Sub-Task), three-level manager sign-off/lock workflows, a robust audit log, and DCAA/FAR-compliant validation rules, supported by a responsive mobile web app and a 99.99% uptime claim with 24/7 support.

The technology stack is a cloud-hosted web application with pre-built integrations into payroll and accounting platforms — Quickbooks (Desktop and Workforce Now), ADP and RUN by ADP, Gusto, Right Networks, and HRIS systems including Namely, Employee Navigator, and Workday — enabling export of validated timesheet data into downstream payroll and invoicing workflows. The company sells via a direct-to-consumer PLG motion (free trial, no credit card required, self-serve signup) layered with a sales-assisted motion for the Pro tier (Calendly-based quote calls), targeting a single vertical: government contractors that must pass DCAA audits and accurately allocate labor costs to federal contracts.

Operationally, eTimesheets.com is a micro-cap SaaS with 1–10 employees, a single disclosed funding round of $250,000 in December 2011, and no parent company, VC backing, or acquisition activity. The company has been self-sustaining for over 25 years within its narrow vertical, with no disclosed revenue, no AI/ML capabilities, and no geographic expansion beyond the United States. Its strategic posture is best characterized as a profitable, capital-efficient niche incumbent defending a specialized compliance workflow rather than pursuing scale or platform expansion.

Direct peers

• ClickTime: ClickTime is a web-based time tracking and timesheet platform aimed at professional services, nonprofits, and government contractors. Comparable pricing tiers, per-seat SaaS model, and approval workflow features overlap directly with eTimesheets.com.
• Deltek: Deltek provides project-based ERP, time tracking, and compliance software purpose-built for government contractors and professional services firms. It is the most direct large-scale competitor to eTimesheets.com in DCAA-compliant time and job costing.
• BigTime Software: BigTime provides time tracking, billing, and project management software for professional services and consulting firms. Its focus on detailed job costing, utilization tracking, and payroll integrations is directly comparable to eTimesheets.com's labor allocation capabilities.
• Replicon: Replicon offers cloud time tracking with project costing, compliance, and workforce management features used by professional services and project-based organizations. Comparable in SaaS delivery, multi-level job costing, and integration with payroll/ERP systems.

Emerging players

• Clockify: Clockify is a free/freemium time tracker with project tracking, approvals, and basic reporting. Its low price point puts it in competitive overlap with eTimesheets.com's Essentials tier for cost-sensitive SMB buyers.
• Hubstaff: Hubstaff combines time tracking with productivity monitoring, payroll, and project management. It targets distributed teams and agencies, overlapping with eTimesheets.com on time entry, approvals, and payroll integrations.
• Harvest: Harvest is a simple time tracking and invoicing tool popular with agencies and SMBs. While less compliance-focused than eTimesheets.com, it competes for the same per-seat time tracking budget at small services firms.
• Toggl Track: Toggl Track offers lightweight time tracking with per-seat SaaS pricing, project tags, and reporting. It targets SMBs and freelancers, competing for the same entry-level time tracking dollar though without DCAA-specific compliance features.

Broad incumbents

• Workday: Workday provides enterprise HCM, payroll, and time tracking with strong capabilities for large organizations. While its compliance posture overlaps with eTimesheets.com at the high end, it represents the suite consolidation risk for the broader market.
• ADP Workforce Now: ADP Workforce Now is a broad HCM/payroll platform that includes native time and attendance modules and is already integrated with eTimesheets.com. As a suite incumbent, it represents both a partner and a competitive threat via bundled time tracking for SMB government contractors.
