Miter

Miter is built for the side of the business most contractors hate: payroll, HR, and paperwork. It puts payroll, HR, time tracking, expenses, and field reporting in one system, made specifically for construction.

Where it really earns its keep is the hard stuff, like certified payroll, prevailing wage, union fringes, and multi-state taxes, which it handles automatically instead of leaving your office manager to piece it together in spreadsheets.

Your crews clock in from the field, labor hours flow straight into payroll, and expenses, per diems, and company card spending are tied to the job. That gives you real-time job costing with fully burdened labor, equipment, and materials tracked down to the cent, so you know whether a job is making money while it’s still going, not after it’s done.

The payoff is time. Miter says more than 2,000 companies use it. One mechanical contractor with a multi-union workforce cut its payroll processing time by 75%, and another customer says they went from 30 hours a week on payroll to 2.

Because everything lives in one place, you stop paying for separate apps for payroll, HR, timekeeping, and crew messaging, and you stop entering the same data twice.

Miter also offers hands-on, white-glove onboarding and US-based support by phone, email, or in-app chat from people who understand construction.

If you’re a growing contractor doing public work or carrying a union crew, this is the kind of tool that keeps you compliant and gets your weekends back.

Pros

  1. Construction compliance is built in. Certified payroll, prevailing wage, union fringe reporting, and multi-state payroll are part of the core product, not add-ons.
  2. Everything is connected. Time tracking, payroll, HR, expenses, and job costing all share the same data, so field hours turn into paychecks and job costs without anyone retyping them.
  3. Strong support. You get high-touch onboarding and a US-based support team that knows construction payroll, which matters when a payroll mistake can mean a compliance problem.

Cons

  1. No public pricing or free trial. Miter doesn’t publish prices; you have to book a demo to get a quote, so it’s hard to know what you’ll pay before you talk to sales.
  2. Newer, and built for bigger crews. Miter is a younger company with a shorter track record and fewer independent reviews to go on. It’s also a back-office and workforce tool, not a sales or scheduling tool, so it won’t handle estimates, quotes, or invoicing. Its features fit commercial, union, and public-works contractors best, and a small residential shop may be paying for more than it needs.
