What busybusy does

busybusy is a construction-oriented time system rather than a full payroll service. Workers clock against jobs and cost codes from mobile devices, supervisors handle crew time and exceptions, and office staff export approved records to accounting or payroll.

The product is still current, but the vendor line changed after busybusy became part of AlignOps. The free plan is a legitimate starting point; buyers should map equipment tracking, daily reports, scheduling, and each connector to the exact paid tier.

Pricing visibilityFree

Free is $0. Pro is $9.99 per user monthly when billed annually or $11.99 monthly; Premium is $14.99 annually or $17.99 monthly. Paid plans add a $40 monthly admin fee and include a 14-day Pro trial.

Before the demo

What stands out, and what to pin down

What stands out on paper

  • A functional free tier lowers the barrier for small crews
  • Employee and equipment hours can follow the same projects and cost codes
  • Paid pricing is published clearly

Questions for the vendor

  • GPS records support timecard review but do not prove productive work by themselves
  • Equipment, scheduling, reports, and integration depth vary by plan
  • Employers must set a transparent location-tracking and retention policy

Integrations

Named connections

An integration name alone does not tell you which records move, in which direction, or how often. Ask to see the exact workflow you need using representative data.

Support

Availability and response commitments can vary by plan, region, and contract. Put required onboarding, training, support hours, and escalation times in the proposal.
