The best feature is the flexibility in time recording whether it is using a standalone time clock, computer browser access, or the mobile app. The records are in real time, and if any exceptions need to be addressed this can be done by using any device. The geofencing feature is nice so managers can see where employees clocked in. This is good for restricting clocking in only at their respective job location.

The best part of the app is it reminds us about our schedule the day before, and this is an excellent part of the application. The built-in messaging system helps us chat with managers when needed. The app notifies about the new schedules as well as the availability.

Great experience, easy to work with. Easy access—we can put it on all of our computers so the employee can clock in at any time, anywhere. And the fact that I can get help at any time. They are very good to work with.
