Enterprise eTIME, by ADP vs. Shiftboard

It is well suited for an Outsourcing business. This type of business has a lot of clients to serve and most of the time consultants serve multiple different clients, eTime suits this kind of setup since it can aid on the accuracy of billing clients for hours rendered by consultants to them.

It's a great intro into a workforce management tool, but our use of it is basically as a calendar without it being linked to our actual calendars. It's just another tab that we have to keep open throughout our workday. It's great that we're able to see everyone who is working at what time and what channel of support, but I believe that there are visual aids that can be added to it to make everything much easier to read and more user-friendly.

• Ability to clock hours without a physical time clock/punchcard -- great for jobs like tutoring, which may not have a central meeting location
• Ability to clock hours for multiple positions in different departments across an organization -- one paycheck, even though I had multiple supervisors and different pay rates

• Mobile accessibility
• Cloud-based software
• Compliant with all necessary information security standards

• The setup is difficult for administers.
• Mapping the pay rules to the accrual profiles, pay codes, etc., is hard to administer as well.
• The consultants at ADP do not know the system well in some cases so getting help with setup and issues can be difficult.

Incentivized

• The ability to print a month view of the schedule would be a great benefit.
• The signup list is a great feature, but there are too many steps to make it easy to use.
• The bulk add and delete process works well, but tends to be confusing for users.

Already using product and I have been happy with the results.

In some ways, the flexibility of eTime makes it much more usable than some time card systems. I can log my own hours at my convenience (as long as it is during the pay period), and eTime sends me a reminder email 24 hours before the cut-off for each pay period. I can log hours for multiple positions using particular pay codes, although there is no way for me to save frequently used or "my" pay codes -- adding this feature would be a much-appreciated improvement to eTime's usability. Juggling multiple pay codes within the current system, however, is cumbersome. There can also be problems if an incorrect or overlapping hour is accidentally entered and saved -- certain fields turn red and are difficult to adjust, often requiring the help of a software administrator. Correcting other errors and entering historical hours is extremely difficult, and the software does not work well on some browsers (and it is unattractive when I have been able to get it to work)

Based on my usage of the program is why I rated it a 7. I used for verifying attendance and employee time cards for accuracy and/or discrepancies.

I never sought out Shiftboard support.

I have not used similar workforce management platform though Enterprise eTIME, by ADP has never failed us in any day. It has given our teams the best guidance on effective implementation of projects and tasks. Close monitoring of our daily programs has lead to increased production. We have managed to implement our duties based on the set timelines.

We have not used another product like Shiftboard at our company.

Incentivized

• The system allows our employees to quickly record their time so that they can focus on their day-to-day jobs.
• The system allows our managers to quickly approve time cards.
• ADP Enterprise eTime does not have a sufficient query function to enable employers to easily create/schedule reports that the business needs. ADP charges high fees for custom reports.

Incentivized

• Effective allocation to proper shows/projects for our network
• Effectively catches any discrepancies between scheduled hours and actual hours for employees
• Requires significant manpower to maintain scheduling accuracy
