busybusy vs. Connecteam

BusyBusy is well suited for organizations with multiple off site job locations which require tracking. Due to it's ability to setup a high volume of work locations as well as bread crumb tracking between home office and job site, I think it is best suited for the service industry including construction, plumbing, landscaping etc. It is less appropriate for organization with single office on site work

I have actually recommended this platform 3 times to fellow contractors and one farmer within the last month. It is easy to set up and intuitive for employees. Our team begged us to keep in after our initial trial and requested we never return to paper time cards. Once you approve time cards it is so easy to run your payroll report and do payroll

Incentivized

• the scheduling feature has room for improvement - the views are not condensed and cannot be viewed by all employee groups
• during the time card review process - instead of a description - it would be nice to have a reason section when changing a time card
• the geo fences around projects - I wish they could be linear

Incentivized

• Adding the ability for employee to be able to set up their own reminders would be beneficial for those that seem to forget to clock in or out

Our team like the product and uses it so there is no reason to change. It works, it is easy, saves us time and headaches

There are some upgrades and features that don’t work without a full delete (app) and reinstall and some users don’t remember their login details. Admin time spent. As well there are some edits that could be beneficial

My team is not tech savvy and they were able to implement immediately without issues. Even new team members after a brief education on what app to download they get it

It's easy don't stress just do it

the switch feature and easy of use for the field employees, who are not all tech savvy, is why we chose busy busy. Other softwares only used a stop/go feature which we thought could be very confusing for employees who are just switching cost codes between jobs. Also integration was cleaner on busy busy

We looked at Homebase and talked to a few organizations that were using it but after reviewing the features and easy of implementation Connecteam won

Incentivized

• Less time entering payroll
• More accurate job details
• Less time spent on collecting time cards
• Detailed project reports as completed

• Before Connecteam I hated "Payroll Mondays" because it took a few hours to do everyone's time and upload it for the accountant. Now it takes maybe 15 mintues to do the entire process. I feel like it is more accurate and definitely less time-consuming - saving me money in the long run.
• Connecteam has also allowed for quick glance time management to reduce overtime. Having accurate info allowing us to redeploy team members as needed and get other off the clock sooner. Or if we are having OT it is not a surprise - we can plan for it
• Our accountant has love the reporting and has even recommended it to other small business because it provides all the info needed.
