SubTrack vs Rhumbix for field tickets and T&M tracking
If you are looking for a Rhumbix alternative for out-of-scope tickets, compare the Time & Materials package with a LEM-first workflow. Rhumbix sells timekeeping, production tracking, and a separate Time & Materials package, then combines them in Plus and Advanced. SubTrack starts with the billable T&M or LEM ticket, project rate sheets, and client approvals. It does not replace Rhumbix timekeeping. This page is published by SubTrack. It is not Rhumbix's website.

The short answer
Start with SubTrack if
- The first problem is billable T&M or LEM tickets, not crew timekeeping.
- You need project rate sheets, scope breaks, revisions, and client approvals.
- You want a published per-seat price and a self-serve trial.
- You do not need production quantities, labor compliance, or daily reports in the same buy.
Rhumbix may already be in the mix if
- Timekeeping or production tracking is the primary system.
- You want T&M tags created from the same field data as timecards.
- Labor compliance reporting or daily construction reports are part of the purchase.
- You want a vendor-led implementation with site configuration and training.

What you can check in SubTrack
These links open live SubTrack product areas. They show the current product. They are not a claim about Rhumbix.
- Rate sheets. Project rate sheets supply the labor, equipment, material, and subcontractor rates on a LEM.
- Scope breaks. Extras and force-account work can be separated on the same ticket.
- Revisions. A sent-back ticket keeps a revision history instead of starting over in email.
- Client approvals. A client can approve from a secure link without a SubTrack account.
- Pricing. Published seats are $45, $65, and $135 USD per month, with a 14-day trial and no credit card.
If you are considering a switch from Rhumbix
- Rhumbix implementation is sales-led. SubTrack signup is self-serve, with optional assisted setup. There is no published Rhumbix import, so recreate projects, people, and rates.
- If timekeeping, production quantities, labor compliance, or daily reports are the system of record, Rhumbix sells those as packages. SubTrack does not replace that stack. Timesheets are in development, not live.
- Try both approval paths on a real extra. Rhumbix Guest Mode sends a T&M form for signature without a Rhumbix account. SubTrack client approvals use a secure link without a client account.
- Rhumbix does not publish dollar prices, so budget a sales conversation. SubTrack's rate card is on the pricing page: $45, $65, and $135 USD per seat per month.
- Confirm offline behavior for T&M forms. Rhumbix documents offline timecards. SubTrack does not currently claim offline field capture.

Why contractors start with SubTrack
Start smaller
Solve the T&M workflow before deploying a broader operating system.
Get to value faster
Create an account, load project rates, and use SubTrack on a real job without waiting for a full software rollout.
Built around field adoption
The product is designed for supervisors and crews who do not have time for lengthy training.
See the price
Published subscription pricing lets contractors understand the commitment before speaking with sales.
Grow modularly
Add more contractor workflows as the business needs them rather than replacing the original system.
Start with the LEM. Build the operating system around it.
The LEM is SubTrack's entry point, not the end state. Once the field record contains trusted project, labor, equipment, material, rate, scope and approval data, adjacent workflows can reuse that same foundation.

Automation
Start with one workflow. Grow without switching platforms.
Each workflow builds on the same projects, people, equipment, rates, scopes and field history. Roadmap and longer-term items are labeled and are not live production features.
Why start focused?
Many smaller contractors are not choosing between SubTrack and a massive enterprise deployment. They are choosing between new software and the paper, spreadsheets and custom tools they already know. SubTrack is designed to make that first software decision easier.
Less change at once
Start with the workflow already causing billing pain.
Less training
Give field crews a focused workflow instead of introducing an entire operating system.
Room to grow
Add more connected workflows as the contractor becomes ready for them.

SubTrack vs Rhumbix FAQ
Is SubTrack a Rhumbix alternative?
For the Time & Materials package, SubTrack is a credible alternative when the job is LEM or T&M tickets, rate sheets, and client approvals. It is not an alternative for Rhumbix timekeeping, production tracking, labor compliance, or daily construction reports.
Does Rhumbix do T&M tickets?
Yes. Rhumbix sells a Time & Materials package for out-of-scope work, and includes that module in Plus and Advanced. Help documentation describes a standalone subcontractor workflow with guest approval. Public pages call these T&M tags or forms, not LEM tickets.
What is the main difference between SubTrack and Rhumbix?
Rhumbix is a workforce field-data platform that also tracks T&M. SubTrack is centered on the billable T&M or LEM ticket. Choose Rhumbix when timekeeping comes first. Choose SubTrack when the ticket, the rate sheet, and the client approval come first.
Does Rhumbix publish pricing?
The packages page lists Timekeeping, Time & Materials, Plus, and Advanced, and it explains that each login is a user license. It does not list dollar prices. The page directs buyers to sales.
Does SubTrack have timesheets?
Not in production. Timesheets are in development and are planned to reuse LEM field data. Rhumbix already sells timekeeping as a package.
Which is the better fit for a small T&M subcontractor?
If the pain is billable extras, rate sheets, and approvals, SubTrack is the more direct starting point and shows the price before a call. If the pain is crew timekeeping and production data, Rhumbix is the closer match even when T&M tags are part of the buy.
What should we check before switching from Rhumbix?
List the Rhumbix packages you actually use. If the list is only T&M tags, a SubTrack trial can test rate sheets and approvals on one job. If the list includes timekeeping or compliance reports, SubTrack will not cover those today. Also confirm how approved tags reach your accounting system, because a native Rhumbix invoice module was not on the packages page.
When is Rhumbix the better fit?
When timekeeping, production tracking, labor compliance, or daily construction reports are the center of the purchase, and T&M tags need to live in that same system.
