Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose When I Work I would say that When I Work is better for a smaller company and has more options than ADP workforce now.

User Testimonials
	actiTIME	When I Work
Likelihood to Recommend	ActiTime is a perfect program for managing payments and expenses within the company. It is an ideal tool to manage the activity of employees and the time they devote to their daily tasks within the company. ActiTime is undoubtedly recommended for its excellent performance in generating reports and the quality of its production. If anything could improve this tool it is its interface as it has become a bit outdated. Incentivized Eric Mendoza Software Programmer Read full review	I recommend When I Work to those companies that are looking for a way to manage work schedules and want to increase the productivity of all employees. This is an important platform that would bring excellent results to small, medium and large companies. This is a constant monitoring system which allows employees to complete their tasks in the indicated time, When I Work sends automated alerts when an employee is not complying with their tasks and this allows us to know exactly the productivity we are having in each one of the sectors. It is an excellent platform for planning and administration of working hours, it has a very easy-to-use UI that allows schedules to be easily managed. Without a doubt, When I Work would be a perfect implementation for any sector or company, since it has a lot of potential to collect exact data on compliance with working hours. Incentivized Sasha Brito Marketing Director Read full review
Pros	It's a program that has different tools perfect for saving time. It has a mobile application that serves to see the activities that are carried out from anywhere. It offers detailed reports in real-time. Its reports are customizable. Allows employees access without the need to create another account. Incentivized Eric Mendoza Software Programmer Read full review	When I Work allowed me to color-code each employee's schedule. When I Work allowed me to show who was "off" during what time of day. This was essential for morale, as our event included 16-18 hour days, and I wanted to show that everyone had down time each day. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Cons	This application can be complex to use for new users. ActiTime should further update its mobile application. Incentivized Eric Mendoza Software Programmer Read full review	Customer service only available by chat or email. No phone- which is crazy, in my opinion. Slows down, getting things done. Understanding their charges is a pain. I still don't know what I am paying for. If you are being overcharged, they don't care; they keep you on billing for something in a group. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	No answers on this topic	It's a powerful tool for employee management and intuitive to use. Incentivized AK Cyrway Co-Owner, President, Creative Services Read full review
Usability	No answers on this topic	While it's one of the better apps, my only complaint is the icon layout of the dash; mouseover sometimes doesn't work for my system. Incentivized AK Cyrway Co-Owner, President, Creative Services Read full review
Support Rating	It has quality support, solving any problem quickly, and clarifying any doubt that arises. It works very well and has quick and detailed answers, the quality of service in this sense is impeccable. ActiTime offers an online chat by which you can solve most of the problems almost immediately. Incentivized Eric Mendoza Software Programmer Read full review	Every time I contact When I Work staff with an issue, someone is there with a quick solution to my problem. I love the chat feature. I can continue to work on other things while the When I Work representative assists me. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Implementation Rating	No answers on this topic	Make certain your team knows how to turn off alerts and utilise the system. Incentivized AK Cyrway Co-Owner, President, Creative Services Read full review

Return on Investment	It allows us to take the process and the expenses made in each project, and these give us the possibility to choose the correct budget for what we are doing. This application does not give the ease of knowing that the payments will be made to different employees without any complication, generating reports that justify the hours of work they did. Incentivized Eric Mendoza Software Programmer Read full review	Compared to what I've used before, When I Work allows you to interact with your staff more than other scheduling apps. Though I don't know the cost, I was told it was cheaper than it's counterparts. The app doesn't have all of the features as the full website, but it's pretty close.
