Homebase vs. Timeneye

I loved using Homebase! The best feature, by far, is scheduling in shifts! It really could not be easier! For restaurants and bars it is the easiest and best software! Using the payroll feature can be very easy! The only downfall is trying to separate scheduled worked hours and overtime. The layout is simple and easy to navigate. The only real con I can think of is that lag.

Timeneye is appropriate when you need a basic time tracking software without a lot of gimmicks or external capabilities. It connects into your existing efforts and has a simple layout. Though it doesn't have separated or well-designed permissions, you can still separate who has access to certain jobs and phases.

• Homebase provides an easy way to schedule employees. Their scheduling platform is extremely user-friendly and easy to edit once the schedule is made.
• Homebase makes it easy for employees to switch schedules on their own, a manager just simply has to approve rather than physically rescheduling both employees, this is great for any small retail business or restaurant with many hourly employees.
• Homebase makes it easy to adjust hours that have been incorrectly clocked or clockouts that have been missed.

• Simple to use.
• Easy to set up.
• Easy to add clients, projets and phases.

• Notifications could be more punctual
• Employees should be able to pick up shifts outside of their scheduled times! Right now managers need to do it.
• Importing hours on QBO payroll could use attention. Doesn't separate normal hours from overtime.

Incentivized

• Lacking basic job reports without considerable time investment.
• Lack of overall reporting and cost per a job metrics.

Homebase is simpler to use. Easier to navigate and is much cheaper than other alternatives! We had trouble when I worked as they were harder to reach our ROI. Deputy was too expensive and it was the reason we decided on Homebase! Employees also find it easy to use on their end!

Harvest wins in a direct comparison in everything except cost. It is more built out, more inclusive, has more third party integrations, and more support than Timeneye does. We selected Timeneye first and for most because of its affordability. We switched over to Harvest as an agency when we outgrow the Timeneye setup.

• Cheapest time tracking platform out there. It allows basic project time tracking and cost per project analysis capabilities.
• It takes so long to report on jobs it might not be worth the cheaper cost.
