Overview
Journyx is a SaaS project time tracking and time-and-attendance platform aimed at project-based and services organizations that need to track billable and non-billable time, forecast resource costs, and feed accurate labor data into their ERP and payroll systems. Founded in 1996 and based in Austin, Texas, the company reports serving more than 6,000 businesses over its 25-plus-year history, with employees across the United States, Europe and India.
The product line splits into two SKUs: Project Time Tracking, built around smart timesheets, multi-level approval workflows, resource forecasting/capacity planning, DCAA-compliant timekeeping for government contractors, and project-level reporting on budget vs. actual; and Time & Attendance (expanded through the 2021 acquisition of Acumen Data Systems), which adds biometric and badge-swipe time clocks, employee scheduling, geofencing, weighted overtime calculation and labor-law compliance for hourly workforces.
Journyx connects to ERP, accounting, payroll and PM systems including Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations, Oracle NetSuite, Sage Intacct, QuickBooks, Microsoft Project, ADP, Paychex and Greenshades, either through native/direct integrations or custom builds handled by its professional services team, and exposes web-service APIs plus Zapier/Power Automate connectors for other systems.

Alternatives to Journyx in Professional Services
Journyx — frequently asked questions
Does Journyx integrate with Microsoft Dynamics or NetSuite?
Yes. Journyx lists native integrations with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations, and Oracle NetSuite, alongside Sage Intacct and QuickBooks. Custom-built integrations for older Dynamics versions (NAV/SL/AX), Workday, Salesforce, SAP and Maximo are available through its professional services team.
What is the difference between Journyx's two products?
Project Time Tracking targets project-based and services organizations, focused on billable time, resource forecasting and project profitability. Time & Attendance, built on the acquired Acumen Data Systems platform, targets hourly/shift workforces with biometric clocks, scheduling and labor-law compliance.
Is Journyx DCAA compliant?
Journyx markets DCAA-compliant timekeeping as a core feature of its Project Time Tracking product, aimed at organizations that hold U.S. government contracts and must document labor time to Defense Contract Audit Agency standards.
How much does Journyx cost?
Journyx publishes starting list prices of $13 per user per month for Project Time Tracking and $5 per user per month for Time & Attendance. Onboarding, integrations, additional modules and time-clock hardware add to these costs, and the vendor issues a tailored quote on request.
Does Journyx offer time clock hardware, or only software?
Both. Alongside web and mobile timesheets, Journyx sells physical time-collection hardware — biometric fingerprint and facial-recognition clocks and ID badge swipe clocks — as part of its Time & Attendance product.
