What is QuickBooks Time?
QuickBooks Time (formerly TSheets) is a cloud-based time tracking and scheduling app that allows employees to clock in and out from the job site with the devices they’ve already got in their pockets. The vendor aims to help companies replace paper timesheets with accurate, electronic time data as well as make payroll and invoicing faster and less costly.
QuickBooks Time also accurately tracks time and GPS points (even without cell or internet service) then automatically syncs when back in service, making it a better (and cheaper) alternative to geofencing.
The Who’s Working” feature enables companies to see where employees are located and who’s working on what in real time. QuickBooks Time also features in-app scheduling that allows users to drag and drop shifts, assign jobs, see who’s working at a glance, and send alerts to managers if employees haven’t clocked in for a job or shift as scheduled.
The vendor offers free unlimited phone, email, and chat support to all customers.

Tsheets is great for team time tracking, time sheet approvals, and integration with Quickbooks for desktop
- Tracking time: it's a fairly intuitive interface for tracking time against 1 or many projects
- Reporting: being able to view reports for a person, or project and billable vs non-billable hours is very useful.
- Interface: The UI isn't always super clear or easy in certain screens, it can leave you wondering which field needs correcting.
- Making changes: It can be a bit cumbersome to make changes to submitted timesheets until you get familiar with where to do this.
Great Program For Offices With Remote Staff
- Support (their help desk team is incredibly helpful and always quick to respond).
- Ease of access and use (the app is user-friendly an intuitive, and the desktop version is equally as approachable).
- Manager functionality (it's useful to be able to clock employees in and out at multiple events on the same day by sorting them into different groups by manager/event).
- GPS tracking (sometimes the GPS will drop a pin that's not particularly close to where the employee was at the time of clocking in/out).
- Mobile efficiency (it's a bit of a battery drainer, the app - it's hard to make it through a full event without my phone completely dying).
- Updates (I feel like the website is constantly undergoing updates that make it impossible to log in. It happens frequently enough that I've noticed it - so maybe fewer, larger updates during non-standard business hours).
- I wish there was a way to view vacation and sick hours on T Sheets - though this may just be missing because our Controller hasn't plugged them in.
TSheets is the Last Time Sheet you ever Need!
- track location of employees
- allow management to approve time worked
- allows management to know in real time how long it is taking employees to work their service routes.
- I can't think of any areas of improvement.
We love TSheets!!!
1. No more driving to pick up or hand in time sheets!
2. No more employees filling in time cards 10 minute before they are handed in.
- Integrates so well with QuickBooks.
- Tracks labor costs for each individual contract.
- We use the Class feature for this. We enter contract names with the PO #s into the QuickBooks Class column, then employees are required to select a contract name when they clock in.
- Tracks Worker' comp codes for each employee.
- We use the Service Item feature for this. We enter each job description with the Worker's Comp codes into the Quickbooks Item column, then employees are required to select a job when they clock in.
- This saves us huge on Worker's Comp costs as Oregon has different rates for each job.
- I would love to have the option to share the schedules. With customers, generals, site managers, etc...
Super Support "Live Chat" Feature.
- Set up is via a web browser. Previous web time sheet tool was through Windows Remote Desktop.
- Some features like "Notes" field in the Manual Time sheet was a check mark under Advanced tab...didn't seem very intuitive
TSheets
- GPS Location
- Tracking Time
- Easy Export
- Service codes per employee for companies with multiple divisions
TSheets is a great product!
- Allows users to clock in and clock out easily.
- Easy to download the app - self-explanatory.
- Keeps accurate time so I know how long they've worked down to the minute.
- There needs to be more control (i.e., the map is inconclusive at telling me where they were at and when). I have an employee that adds an hour (at least) to his time each week and I can't prove that he didn't work that additional hour because his boss wasn't aware of it.
- Since I'm the administrator, I would like the ability to not be required to enter notes when I'm adjusting/entering time for the guys. In actuality, what's required is that I must go in a turn off the feature that says "Notes Required", otherwise it requires me to enter a note for them, even as the administrator.
- It would be nice if this wasn't so much a web-based program. We have so many internet issues at our office that sometimes it's impossible to work on time because I simply can't get on to do anything. Is there any way that TSheets could add the option to have a downloadable program?
Excellent Support Staff (Kelsey T)
- Very simple to use: It is easy to train employees on the system and is very flexible.
- Cloud based: Your employees and administrator do not have to be in the office to use the software. It has mobile access as well as cloud access. You can use it from anywhere you can access internet.
- Excellent support team: I am a new user and still learning many of the features. The support team, both on the telephone and online chat (Kelsey T) are very good, quick and supportive.
- Links with QBO & Knowify: This is great because all the cloud software programs are syncing with eachother automatically. No more waiting for paper time sheets from employees and no more duplicate data entry. Once time sheets are approved, it's an easy sync to the appropriate other apps that are used for payroll and/or project reporting.
- USD Pricing: I am in Canada and would like to have CAD pricing. It will make it easier to set up competitive value add pricing to my clients if I am not worrying about exchange rate fluctuations.
- Time clock at top of screen: I can't figure out how to get it to show the correct time. Like I said, still learning.
- Invoicing: I would like to see a copy of the invoice from the billing department at time of issue (28th of the month) instead of the time that it is charged to my credit card (3rd of the month). It will make it easier for billing clients.
Tsheets may not work well for organizations that are still using desktop versions of accounting software. It would still do well tracking employee time, but may get somewhat tedious at payroll time.
Help4Access (Microsoft Access Support) adopts tSheets for tracking world-class support
Microsoft Access is the world's fastest rapid application platform in the world, and TSheets is the fastest most effective tool for tracking time spent. It's integration with QuickBooks online insures our accounting department gets immediate and accurate information in a timely fashion.
Our clients leverage our team for supporting their complex database application written on the Microsoft Access platform. Support is KEY! The support at TSheets is timely, personable and friendly.
At TSheets, Tiffany has been invaluable and has provided excellent support. Tiffany understood my question and clearly has comprehensive product knowledge. The feature I was looking for is not currently in the product but will be soon.
Like Help4Access, TSheets support is world-class and I strongly recommend TSheets.
- Time Tracking
- Support multiple users
- Scales
- Reporting
- Integration with Quickbooks
- I would like the option to schedule automatic running of mid-week reports.
TSheets is great
- I love the app, it has a little notification at the top of my screen so I know I'm logged in, and I can see all my stats quickly at any time. Oh, and clocking in and out on my phone is so easy!
- Everyone's home screen is TSheets, so right when they sit down, if they're not using the app, employees clock in. Many keep the clock running on their screen so they can see how many hours they worked periodically without having to "watch the clock" - it's helped to prevent un-approved overtime.
- I know there's PTO tracking. That feature is not currently being utilized, but we're looking into using it for 2018!
- Many employees forget to clock in or out and I'm not sure how to get them to remember as if they are not in a certain level of position, we prefer they not use the app. I know reminders can be sent, but I think that feature maybe isn't working or they've turned it off?
- PTO tracking isn't being used, I think the prior person may have had difficulty, or is it a separate feature?
- The clock. I wish there was a "lunch" button instead of just in and out. We all clock out for lunch, then back in, and on the counting screen it starts over?
TSheets Review
- TSheets keeps track of when employees clock in from where they clock in and it shows you who is on the clock.
- TSheets can be used to clock in and out from anywhere on your smartphone. For example, I normally have to run errands before or after work and with TSheets I clock in and out from anywhere as longs as I have the TSheets app on my phone.
- TSheets basically does payroll for us. We are extremely happy with TSheets.
TSheets long term user's perspective
- Well designed user interface for manual time cards.
- Timesheet approvals workflow is useful to resolve/cleanse billing data before export to QuickBooks Online.
- "Legacy Timesheets" feature is invaluable for our use case (we have no employees) and bill clients for services.
- Outstanding customer support including a recent call with Sarah who kindly resolved a minor issue.
- Our use case would benefit from improved accuracy and efficiency if default values were automatically assigned from advanced tracking fields that have only a single selection. We are making recent use of these fields and sometimes errors are introduced when field values are not captured correctly. The errors may only be associated with already entered data that we are updating since the new feature, but having to select a value every time from a pull-down-list with only a single option doesn't make sense for our use case.
Great program with great staff.
- Most of the people on our team aren't very tech savvy but tsheets is easy for them to figure out.
- Notifications are great. I don't have to remind anyone to clock in or out.
- The staff is very helpful. Jen D. helped me get everything working perfectly!
- More information fields in the jobs or availability for more advanced tracking fields.
So many time sheets, only one winner!
- We have used time-sheet apps for a long time. They were not cloud-based and thus data would need to be exported manually to a central utility. TSheets central server model greatly reduces some of the time required as well as the opportunities for error.
- The time-sheet apps we have used geo-located at clock-in and clock-out. TSheets tracks the whole time a member is clocked-in. This provides much added comfort in knowing what happens between clock-in and clock-out.
- When a "manager" (subcontractor) clocks in an entire crew, he can enter a note discussing what they will be doing. At the end of the day, when he clocks them out, it would be great if he could also update the global note with what the crew actually ended up doing.
- In our case, the subcontractor may work at more than one job during a given week and thus we would like the subcontractor to be able to generate a report showing how much they are billing us for each job and what is the total for all jobs for the week.
Awesome customer service saves the day (and my payroll)!
- Employee interface is excellent and intuitive.
- The export process into QuickBooks is flawless and seamless.
- The historical records kept by TSheets are extremely helpful for project costing.
- I'm looking forward to enhanced calendar use, integration with Google calendar would be awesome.
- The ability to create Work Orders or Tickets and track them would complete this software as a go-to for service management.
Superb Customer Support
- Tsheets has a very proactive support system. The ability to "chat" with a person, such as Max (Thanks again Max!!) to get immediate assistance has been invaluable.
- Tsheets is always listening to its users to implement changes and improvement - but sometimes the changes don't work across the board. For instance, you can add the feature to round employee time to the nearest measurement (there are several options) but it then rounds everything - including breaks and switching jobs which no longer allows the employee the allocated time.
Awesome Product
- Their customer support is awesome - Amanda was most helpful.
- Was simple to set up and implement.
- Staff like that they don't have to carry a note book any longer to keep track of time spent on customer accounts and transfer into a timesheet system at end of day/week.
- Like the ability to use the mobile app when on the move.
- In the Canadian version of QuickBooks can not use the web connector drop down in QuickBooks, we have to run the connector each time from Tsheets. Seems backward.
- Want the ability to change font size on the mobile app to be smaller so that customer jobs on the app can be seen better. They truncate and cut off part of the job. We had to be creative in our job names in QuickBooks to see them on the app.
Love TSheets
- Location Tracking
- Time sheet tracking
- QuickBooks Integration
- We'd like the ability to report commissions and bonuses through TSheets. I believe the software is constantly improving and adding new features.
- Responsive to emails and phone calls!!
- Listening thoroughly through the question before responding to ensure they fully understand the overall scope prior to answering.
- Have an amazing upbeat attitude. It is obvious that this atmosphere is cultivated from the top down.
- Hold music is way to loud!!! :-) often times I would have my client on a webx conference call to address questions or concerns and while placed on hold to find additional information we could not talk to one another because of the music volume.
- The overall management of open schedules was addressed very well with a "work around" creating "Ghost" employees and allowing field personnel management access to see and apply the schedules to themselves only. This may be such a unique feature that it would never be used by anyone else but I would like to see it coded and rolled out in future versions.
- There is currently no way to allow managers of groups, or the above Ghost accounts, aware if the schedule has modified or dropped by an employee. It would be nice to see bi directional communication with groups not just one to one .
Outstanding Customer Support
- TSheets eliminates manual data entry for the back office.
- TSheets syncs with Quickbooks (our accounting software) seamlessly, no redundancy.
- Tsheets customer service is top notch! It is actually a pleasant experience to call customer support.
- None at this time.
