How to automate Clockify user provisioning, and what it actually costs

Summary and recommendation

Clockify, the time tracking platform trusted by millions of users worldwide, does not offer SCIM provisioning on any plan - not even their Enterprise tier at $15.99/user/month. While Clockify provides SAML 2.0 and OAuth 2.0 SSO authentication on the Enterprise plan, this only handles login security, leaving IT teams to manually manage user provisioning, project assignments, and workspace access. For organizations tracking time across contractors, employees, and project teams, this creates a significant administrative burden where users must be individually invited and configured.

The gap between SSO authentication and actual user lifecycle management becomes particularly problematic for time tracking workflows. When new team members join projects or contractors need access to specific workspaces, IT administrators must manually send invitations and configure permissions rather than having users automatically provisioned with appropriate project access based on their role. This manual process delays productivity and creates compliance risks when access isn't properly managed or deprovisioned.

The strategic alternative

Clockify has no native SCIM. That leaves a workflow gap in offboarding, access reviews, and license cleanup unless your team handles the app another way. Stitchflow builds and maintains the IT workflows your team still runs manually, across every app, including the ones without APIs.

The cost of not automating

Without SCIM (or an alternative like Stitchflow), your IT team manages Clockify accounts manually. Here's what that costs:

The Clockify pricing problem

Clockify gates SCIM provisioning behind premium plans, forcing significant cost increases for basic user management.

What this means in practice

Even with Enterprise-level SSO, your IT team still faces manual provisioning overhead:

New hires
Must be manually invited to Clockify workspace before SSO works
Role changes
Project assignments and permissions require manual updates
Departures
Accounts must be manually deactivated (SSO alone doesn't remove access)
Contractors/temps
Each requires individual invitation and cleanup

For a 200-person company doing time tracking, this creates ongoing administrative burden despite paying $38,376/year for Enterprise features.

Additional constraints

Subdomain requirement
SSO setup forces workspace migration to custom subdomain
Owner-only configuration
Only workspace owner can configure SSO settings
No JIT provisioning
Users must exist in Clockify before first SSO login
Project access gaps
No automated way to assign users to appropriate projects based on department/role

Summary of challenges

  • Clockify does not provide native SCIM at any price tier
  • Organizations must rely on third-party tools or manual provisioning
  • Our research shows teams manually provisioning this app spend significant hidden costs annually

What Clockify actually offers for identity

SAML SSO (Enterprise plan required)

Clockify supports basic SAML 2.0 authentication on their Enterprise plan at $15.99/user/month:

SettingDetails
ProtocolSAML 2.0, OAuth 2.0 (OIDC)
Supported IdPsOkta, Azure AD, Google Workspace, OneLogin, JumpCloud
ConfigurationCustom subdomain required, workspace owner must configure
User provisioningManual only - no automated user creation
JIT provisioningNot supported

Critical limitation: Clockify has no SCIM provisioning whatsoever. Their SSO implementation only handles authentication - every user must still be manually invited to the workspace.

What Enterprise actually includes

The $15.99/user/month Enterprise plan bundles SSO with these features:

Time tracking features
Project templates, custom fields, scheduling
Reporting
Advanced reports, time audit, project profitability
Admin controls
User roles, approval workflows, IP restrictions
Integrations
Advanced project management integrations

The reality: 80% of Enterprise features are time tracking enhancements. If you just need user provisioning automation, you're paying premium pricing for scheduling templates and profit reports you'll likely never use.

No automation means ongoing manual work

Without SCIM, your IT team handles:

Manual user invitations for every new hire
Manual workspace access removal for departing employees
Manual project assignment updates when roles change
No group-based access control from your IdP

This manual overhead persists regardless of whether you pay for Enterprise SSO.

What IT admins are saying

Clockify's lack of automated provisioning creates manual overhead for IT teams managing time tracking access:

  • No SCIM provisioning means manual user creation and removal
  • Enterprise plan requirement puts SSO behind a paywall
  • Subdomain migration required for SSO setup adds implementation complexity
  • Workspace owner restriction limits who can configure SSO

Only workspace owner can configure SSO

Clockify documentation

Workspace must be moved to subdomain for SSO. Can disable other login methods to enforce SSO.

The recurring theme

Even after paying for Enterprise and completing the subdomain migration, IT teams still manually manage every user addition, removal, and project assignment in Clockify. There's no automated sync with your identity provider.

The decision

Your SituationRecommendation
Small team (<10 users) with low turnoverManual management acceptable for now
Growing team tracking billable hoursUse Stitchflow: manual user management creates billing gaps
Enterprise with contractors and freelancersUse Stitchflow: automation essential for project access control
Multiple client projects with changing teamsUse Stitchflow: manual provisioning can't keep pace
Compliance requirements for time tracking accessUse Stitchflow: automated audit trail required

The bottom line

Clockify has no native SCIM. That means one more workflow gap in offboarding, access reviews, and license cleanup unless your team handles it another way.

Time Tracking

ProvisioningNot Supported
Manual Cost$11,754/yr

Harvest, the popular time tracking platform, does not offer native SCIM provisioning on any plan. While Harvest provides SAML SSO integration on its Premium plan ($14/seat/month annually) with major identity providers like Okta, Azure AD, and OneLogin, authentication alone doesn't solve the user lifecycle challenge. IT teams must manually create user accounts in Harvest before SSO can work—the system won't auto-provision users upon first login. OneLogin does offer a proprietary provisioning connector, but this locks you into their specific IdP and doesn't address broader lifecycle automation needs. This creates a significant operational burden for organizations managing employee onboarding, role changes, and offboarding. Without automated provisioning, IT teams face manual account creation delays, inconsistent access patterns, and the compliance risk of orphaned accounts when employees leave. For a time tracking system that touches most employees, this manual overhead scales poorly as organizations grow.

B2B Revenue Intelligence / ABM

ProvisioningNot Supported
Manual Cost$11,754/yr

6sense, the B2B revenue intelligence platform, has paused SCIM provisioning for new customers until Q4 2026. While existing customers with SCIM enabled can continue using it, new implementations are limited to JIT (Just-In-Time) provisioning through SAML SSO. This creates a significant gap for IT teams managing revenue intelligence access, as JIT only creates users on first login and provides minimal attribute mapping (email, first name, last name only). For an enterprise platform with typical pricing of $55,000-$130,000 annually, the absence of automated user lifecycle management is a substantial limitation. The lack of SCIM until Q4 2026 forces IT teams into manual provisioning workflows for a platform handling sensitive revenue data. While SAML SSO handles authentication, it doesn't address user lifecycle events like role changes, department transfers, or offboarding. This creates compliance risks in revenue teams where access to prospect data and sales intelligence must be tightly controlled. The nearly two-year wait for SCIM restoration means organizations implementing 6sense today face manual user management for the foreseeable future.

Product Management / Roadmapping

ProvisioningNot Supported
Manual Cost$11,754/yr

Aha! Roadmaps, the product roadmapping platform, does not support SCIM provisioning on any plan. While Aha! offers SAML 2.0 SSO integration with identity providers like Okta, Entra ID, and OneLogin, this only handles authentication through JIT (Just-In-Time) provisioning. The critical limitation: JIT provisioning creates user accounts with no default role or access permissions, requiring administrators to manually configure access for each user after they first sign in. For product teams managing strategic roadmaps and stakeholder access, this creates significant operational overhead. Since product roadmaps contain sensitive strategic information and stakeholder access typically varies by product area, IT administrators must manually assign appropriate roles and workspace permissions after each user is provisioned. There's no automatic deprovisioning when users leave the organization, creating potential security gaps. This manual process becomes particularly problematic for larger product organizations where dozens of stakeholders across different business units need carefully managed access to specific roadmaps.
