Asure Time & Attendance vs. When I Work

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 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.

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

• 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.

• 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.

• You cannot view inactive employees on the app.
• When pulling up the schedule on the app, it defaults to Tuesday when the screen is done loading.
• If you pull up an individual's schedule it removes your default settings. For example, I have mine set to just my store, but if I need to see an employee's schedule it resets those defaults. You're always looking at the last schedule you pulled up.

It's a powerful tool for employee management and intuitive to use.

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.

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.

Make certain your team knows how to turn off alerts and utilise the system.

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.

When I Work seemed a bit easier to implement for our team and employees. When I Work had all the things we needed without a lot of the bells and whistles that we wouldn't really utilize. When I Work was also a bit more affordable for our budget. Overall, it was the better choice.

• 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.

Incentivized

• Has cut down on the time I spend scheduling.
• Makes estimating payroll simple.
• Is convenient for staff to use because they can utilize it on their own device.
• Allows for messaging as well, which helps get the word out about numerous things, not just scheduling issues.
