Asure Time & Attendance vs. EPAY Systems

AsureForce Time would work well for a company with a large volume of non-exempt staff, but the workforce would have to have very simplistic needs. Complex business rules and structure wouldn't be accommodated well by this solution.

I am able to track which of my clients have paid their invoices and which have not. The number of days that the EPAY invoice is outstanding is easily accessible. The date the original invoice was sent is displayed. The initial form to complete in order to send the EPAY is so simple a caveman can do it. Just need the client's name, email, and the amount of the invoice. The automated follow-up emails to the clients who have not paid are helpful.

• The sync functionality between the clocks and the software, particularly the new clocks, is a plus.
• The Asure support team is very responsive.

• EPAY team is responsive to our needs. Excellent team who understands our challenges and helps us come up with solutions.
• System functionality is configurable so that we minimize custom programming.

• The way the business rules are set up doesn't lend itself to easily supporting our specific business/users.
• The software doesn't interface with our HR/payroll solution as well as I'd hoped.

• All-time punches are rounded to 15-minute intervals which can skew accurate break times.
• Slow lading or occasional lags due to server overload.
• Sync errors cause occasional overlapping punches.

Because I can't give it a Zero, I believe EPAY Systems is the most senseless system I have ever used. I worked on systems over 25 years ago that were better. In my opinion, there is no logic to the programming; the system is unbelievably SLOW, and there and hundreds of problems every week. And major ones that they will not or can not correct. For example, we can not file or access employee records in the system as it can take longer than 10 minutes to view or load one document for one employee - IF the system allows you to get that far, which it usually doesn't.

I feel the support is terrible. We have an outsourced support purpose who doesn't understand the EPAY Systems or our company, [removed], will only answer the first thing mentioned even if there is an entire list. Then the answer does not solve the 1st problem on the list or any other and has no idea how to help us. We have requested a replacement and were told we would get one, then told later we would not. I believe while the support person is nice, I believe they were not trained or supported on their end, and effectiveness is probably 1% or less, takes forever, and is only on the minor issues.

This product was selected well before I began with my company, and we'll actually be moving off of it soon to Ultimate Software's time & attendance solution.

Our main reason for switching to Blueforce is
that we found the platform to be pretty promising and interactive than other
alternatives. With other alternatives, there was one issue or another which just
used to not give us a very smooth and subtle experience. Thankfully, this tool
has solved all our problems and has been a godsend gift that does its job
quietly and lets the final results make the noise.

• We spend a lot of time internally on support and set up. Part of this is due to how the software was made and part is due to how our business is structured and changes frequently.
• We are able, though, to scale on top of it easily when we open new locations.

• Decreased the Risk of lawsuits due to paying incorrectly
• Allows for accurate Payroll process
• Employees are paid correctly per the law- Employee Happiness
