Zoho
Zoho People is well suited for organizations where they need a self service HR tool for tasks like attendance, leave management and time tracking. It is perfect for offices where employees like to work independently and benefit from easily accessing and managing their own HR records. But it is less suitable where internet is an issue or GPS is unavailable which makes the process of check-in/check-out frustrating.

Zoho
  • Data Management- It's useful to have all data related to HR in one space, especially using the cloud. Separating data into relevant categories also makes administrative work a breeze.
  • Employee Resources- Having a central place for employees to reach out to HR is ideal.
  • Customization- Creation of forms is especially useful for a growing business.
  • Integration- Integrates well with other systems.

Cons

Zoho
  • Check in and GPS issues - The app sometimes struggles with location detection during check-in which delays logging in
  • Limited offline access - Zoho People should have had an offline functionality making it difficult for employees to check in or log hours when internet connection is an issue
  • Clunky user interface - I personally find the interface bit too cluttered which makes navigation difficult

  • For us, the time/attendance tracking function of Zoho People has done a lot to increase accountability for scheduling and attendance. Since we are a volunteer staff, scheduling can be difficult, and this has made it so much easier to quantify and track everyone's weekly time commitments.

AbsenceSoft Screenshots

Screenshot of a Real-Time Leave Status Report: A leave status report offers a real-time and on-demand overview of leave requests and the status of those requests. This report can be used to quickly identify:

- Employees who have submitted leave requests
- Eligibility status
- Leave approval status
- When the employee will return to workScreenshot of a Compliance Monitoring Map: AbsenceSoft makes state and federal compliance more straightforward. A fully dedicated, internal compliance team ensures that all policies are updated in time for legislative changes. Rules are continuously updated to guarantee clients are working with the latest legislation and best practices, eliminating the need to constantly research new leave law changes.Screenshot of an Intermittent Usage Report: Staying up-to-date with all of the steps that occur in an intermittent leave case can be very tedious and time-consuming for a leave team. But an Intermittent Usage Report checks the need-to-know data points for intermittent leaves in real-time, including:

- Intermittent leave usage (who is out and for how long)
- Which employees need recertification
- Any inconsistencies
