stratustime vs. TimeClock Plus

We don't use the clock in and clock out feature so I can't speak to that. It works best for our exempt employees and is a little harder for our non-exempt employees. We allow employees to enter their start and stop times but some of our non-exempt employees have trouble logging their meals properly. If they did it incorrectly, they can't always fix it and it has to be fixed by an admin (often by deleting all the time entered for that day).

I think the best place for TimeClock Plus to work would be at a restaurant or a busy business that has a lot of people to track and needs a robust dashboard to keep things in order. For my organization, we only have around 10 people max per location and it was a bit too expensive and complex for our needs. We could use a simpler system.

• Reporting on employee time and attendance data.
• Stratustime offers biometric clock in and clock out options.

Incentivized

• Track hours

• User-friendly as an employee

Incentivized

• While you can future date many changes in an employee profile, you can't change all of them. A big one that I wish you could future date is manager changes.
• There is not a way to have the project codes/cost centers automatically accessible for employees. New employees have to go in and activate them. It's a small thing but people just don't pay much attention.
• They could really improve their training materials. Some short videos to share with employees on entering time would be really helpful.
• They don't have a mobile app. They have a mobile website but it isn't great and our employees really want an app.

Incentivized

• Would be nice to see at end of day hours currently worked. Instead you have to do this using another function.
• Should be simpler way of putting employee's schedule in time clock rather than copying and pasting week after week, month after month.
• Should be a way to archive old employees.

Incentivized

• The support representatives respond quickly and work hard to resolve every issue. They are always friendly and courteous.
• The email notifications are our most significant issue, and they are still not entirely resolved.
• I dislike having to sign forms to allow them access to the databases routinely...it seems this could be an annual document.

Stratustime's GUI is better, but Kronos seemed more stable

We switched to Namely for our HRIS system and they had a time tracking solution integrated within their software which made us no longer need to utilize TimeClock Plus. Namely's time tracking also flowed seamlessly into our payroll which made the process much simpler and easier to use. The reporting is also much easier to utilize.

Incentivized

• Overall, it has really helped us streamline our timekeeping process by allowing managers and employees to approve their time electronically from anywhere with an internet connection.
• The ability to reconcile time sheets in a timely manner as also allowed us to process payroll a few days earlier than we were able to with our previous system.

Incentivized

• Positive: The ease of not manually tracking clocking in and out.
• Negative: Expensive and too robust of a software for a small team.
• Negative: The app is dated and needs an update and can be slow.
