Sling has a generous free plan but gates time tracking and key features behind paid tiers. Cloxbi gives you every feature on every plan — flat price, no per-user math.
Sling's free plan is genuinely useful. Where Cloxbi pulls ahead: AI scheduling, snap-to-schedule photo import, and time tracking included on all paid plans.
From $29/mo for up to 30 users
One price covers your whole team — not per user, not per location. Snap a photo of your existing schedule and we build it. Clone a week. Approve PTO. Ask Cloxbi™ to fill a gap in plain English.
Free (up to 30 users, no time tracking) · $2/user/mo Premium · $4/user/mo Business
Sling's free plan supports up to 30 users with basic scheduling — genuinely useful. But time tracking, AI scheduling, and snap-to-schedule are missing entirely. On paid plans, costs scale per user.
One charges by team size. One charges per user — and lacks key features on free.
Every Cloxbi feature is on every plan. Sling gates the good stuff behind Premium and Business.
