    Works Great!

    Date: Jan 18 2024
    Summary

    It has worked very well for my company and we plan to continue using it. I hope that full QuickBooks Online integration is in the future to save a step each week when entering payroll, but otherwise we are happy.

    Positive

    Quick, Easy to Use, QB Export ALWAYS works as it should. Setting up employees and PTO schedules is easy and we like the chat options so employees can communicate with admins and each other.

    Negative

    I don't like that it won't break down holiday time, overtime, etc when sending to QB but I understand that is a QB API issue, not OTC.

    OnTheClock fits our company's needs perfectly.

    Date: Apr 24 2024
    Summary

    I find this product to be easy to use and my manager and other employee agree. We are a 3-person company and had a basic need to get away from handwritten paper timesheets and OnTheClock fit the bill. The product was seamless to set up to fit our company needs. It makes my job as a payroll admin much easier.

    Positive

    -Great customer support, you get a real person!
    -So many features, they do most everything I could ever need.
    -Because we only have a few employees our pricing is free, which is a huge bonus! And even when we hire now, it's very reasonable.

    Negative

    -Although it integrates with QuickBooks Online, it does not keep OT hours classified that way, they get pulled over as all REG hours. For this reason, I do not use the integration import, I just enter the hours manually, which works fine for just a few employees.
    -Managers do not receive email notifications when PTO is requested, only administrators. I've had to set up my manager as an admin as well for this purpose, which does not make logical sense.

    It is very cost effective and the ease of running reports and adding punches are very important to me as the Admin of the time clock program.

    Positive

    This online time clock program is a great program. I highly recommend it. The functionality is very easy to use and very easy to get reports from.

    Negative

    I really can't think of anything right that I don't care for. It seems to work perfectly for our little company.

    OnTheClock review

    Date: Sep 27 2024
    Summary

    Overall experience looks well... of course we find points to improvement but works fine overall. I'm sure all this points can be improved.

    Positive

    Easy to configure and use... easy to explain how it will work with users. mobile experience with users was overall good

    Negative

    Drain a lot of battery of users when tracking gps.
    need some more customization options, some companies may need different "work weeks" depending on session or kind of employees work.

    I do no have any issues that I can think of at this moment.

    Summary

    Great choice for small and large businesses. Price is wonderful. reports are great. Customer service can't be beat.

    Positive

    This software is easy to use, has customizable reporting, the ability to export, and customizable options that beat the other systems I've used by far. The price simply cannot be beat as well!

    Negative

    Setup can take some time- but this is typical and should be expected of any product that is customizable.

    Date: Nov 06 2023

    Mobile App is user friendly.
    Reasonable pricing.

    Negative

    Employees sometimes do not click the okay after punching in or out so the punch doesn't complete.

    Date: Dec 05 2023
    Summary

    Great. The support team is very helpful and prompt. While setting up we had many questions and they were very friendly despite having to bother them so many times.

    Positive

    Great for a company with standard business hours, which is something we struggled with when looking at a lot of other apps because they were mainly geared towards cafes or places that have their employees come in on shifts.
    Can bulk add holiday.
    Can do salary employees.

    Negative

    No easy sage integration we would have to contact our sage representative to get things set up/see about having it integrated.

    This time clock is so easy to use. If you need to review past time it's already there. If you need to make changes its also very easy to do.

    One of the best timeclocks available!

    Date: Dec 09 2023
    Summary

    Ease of use, ease of adding, modifying time. The employees love being able to clock in from their phone wherever they are in the building and they love to be able to have their lunch automatically deducted so that they don't have to punch in and out.

    It has made tracking time so much easier for our organization. I would recommend it to any size company!

    Positive

    Easy to use overall.
    Ease of logging in and tracking time.
    Ease of printing and modifying timecards.
    Ease of adding employees.

    Negative

    The only thing that I may change is if you are adding a punch, and you have all employees open, it lets you add the punch, but it puts you back to the top of the screen (or first employee) instead of taking you back to where you were before you entered the new punch.

    Great Time Keeping Software! Employees Love it!

    Date: Sep 19 2023
    Summary

    I am VERY happy in choosing OnTheClock for my time keeping needs for my company. I looked at several other software options, including ADP's time and attendance software, and I found myself always comparing the other companies to OnTheClock's features, capabilities, and pricing. Once I realized that I was using OnTheClock as my benchmark, it was obvious who I should choose. Customer service is an inevitable need when migrating to a new software program. I have been over-the-moon impressed with the ease in having a friendly human to answer my call and is eager to assist with a solution. I really like how simple this software is to use for regular day to day tasks. It saves me a lot of time when I do our weekly payroll and it is so convenient that I can now do payroll remotely. So if I was able to go back in time and make any changes to my time keeping software choice, I wouldn't change a thing! I would've only done so sooner.

    Positive

    1. Can do payroll from any location
    2. Employees can clock out for lunch from where ever they are in their service route
    3. Simple to use
    4. Superb Customer Service / Customer Support!!!
    5. Benefit transparency for employees (PTO time, wage information, Holiday hours, etc)
    6. Message posting to all team members or only members in a certain group
    7. Payroll integration with ADP Run
    8. Time card edits are EASY
    9. Bulk add holiday hours is simple
    10. Department managers can easily see who's OnTheClock and at work
    11. PTO requests are easy to manage. The PTO calendar is an excellent tool to be able to see employees with vacation days off.

    Negative

    This isn't totally a con, but I wish the following feature change was available:
    GeoFence feature for punching in and out could be set with a time schedule for the the geofence to apply. For Example, my employees report to the office at the beginning and end of the day. This is where the clock in and out should take place. However, we run a service business and with 18 routes and these team members clock out for lunch from their service route. It would be nice if the GeoFence warning emails were not sent during the lunch time hours, as we expect them to be outside of the geofence when going to lunch.

    Great Program

    Date: Nov 14 2023
    Summary

    Using this program has cut down on employee theft of hours. It's also much cheaper than buying a punch clock and time cards. The back office end is easy to adjust times if needed and helps with payroll.

    Positive

    Program was easy to install and teach to all employees. I like that we have the option to have everyone sign in from their individual computer and lock out signing in from their phones. Using this program is much cheaper than buying a time clock and punch cards.

    Negative

    So far we haven't had issues with the program. One thing that came up is re-using the email address for an employee that left.

    OnTheClock evaluation

    Date: Sep 04 2023
    Summary

    A nice simple to use application that I recommend to all SME's. I use it every day and I improve daily. The possibilities are many.

    Positive

    I was looking for a simple and economical solution to track my teams' hours, planned and unplanned absences, illnesses, overtime tracking, delays.
    After several searches on the net, I finally discovered OnTheClock and I am happy with it for the simplicity and the wealth of possible options.

    Negative

    The absence of other languages ( French for example )
    A reduction in the price of the subscription beyond 10 users for example.

    I personally encountered a major difficulty in the use of the schedule (not fixed) but I was not abandoned to my fate because I was able to be accompanied by the many online supports. My problem has since been solved and I had to set the location, language and clock of my computer to the USA.

    Game-Changer for Office Efficiency!

    Date: Mar 16 2022
    Summary

    OnTheClock will change the way that your business works! We have gained so much time and increased efficiency thanks to on the clock. Itā€™s easy for managers to use, easy for employees, and integrates well with most payroll systems. We used a couple of different softwareā€˜s before, and on the clock is by far the most effective, efficient, an impactful. The best part about it? Itā€™s complex in the features it offers, but simple to use for all users! Seamless and problem-free. Just decide what youā€™re now going to do with all the time thatā€™s freed up!

    Positive

    OnTheClock is intuitive and user-friendly, which makes on-boarding a breeze! Itā€™s easy to navigate so itā€™s a quick transition from other sites/software or even for those using a system for the first time! Plus their customer service is unparalleled- you will get timely and helpful responses to any questions!

    Negative

    No major drawbacks, only that I hope itā€™s new features include a way to upload PTO allowances for employees all at once instead of individually.

    Best way to keep track of hours

    Date: Jan 25 2022
    Summary

    What a blessing for our small business. So easy to use and anytime I have had a question, they resounded very quickly.

    Positive

    So easy to punch in and out. Easy to adjust time, the map is always accurate and is helpful to ensure honesty. Being able to go back to previous weeks is also helpful.

    Negative

    I haven't come across anything that I do not like.
