Arcoro HR has been a great help with time keeping. Our guys use it on the field to clock in and take notes. Transfer of time sheets over to our payroll system is a breeze. Whenever we have issues or questions, the Arcoro team is quick to respond, send instructions or give us direction. 10 out of 10 would recommend.
Pros
Offers support
Responds quickly
Offers direction
Cons

We use ExakTime / Arcoro HR for time keeping. It's easy to use.

Arcoro HR is our main and only HRIS that we currently utilize. It has allowed for the streamlining of multiple HR processes as well as serve as a digital database for the storage and central location of all employee data, information, and personnel files. Arcoro HR's time off function is easy to use and navigate for employee's, which is especially beneficial in our case with such a large majority of the employee population being scattered out across the state/out in the field. The workflows have been great in terms of being able to push out mass communications, or documents, prompting needed attention or sign offs without the hassle of physical paper/wet signatures.
Pros
Visibility that employees have of their PTO
Ease of accessing documents, either employee submitted, or company provided
Self-service options that employees have to update their information
Cons
Workflows are lacking in terms of full customizability
Mobile app/ease of overall use via cell phones or tablets
Cleaner appearance, can be a bit blocky, archaic, older style of functioning
Likelihood to Recommend
Higher employee populations I think would greatly value, more so on our end with a smaller base, less than 100, a lot of the functions are not necessarily needed/too expansive. Also the fact that a very small percentage of our employee population has everyday access to a computer, i.e. a majority of Arcoro HR for employees is utilized via an iPad or cell phone, which the functionality via those modes are greatly lacking.
We are a landscape construction company. The fact that it tells me that a person is clocking in or out outside the jobsite location is very helpful. I do wish that the location of the clock-out wasn't shown as the crow flies. It would be helpful to see more realistic driving spots. What I do not like is when someone tells me they forgot to clock back in after lunch. They can tell me any time they would like is when they return, and I can not dispute it because there is no crumb trail while clocked out. I don't know if this falls in this area....I am no longer allowed to export my QB hours for a Thursday on Thrusday evening. I have to wait to do my payroll on Friday morning, which is late for getting it to the person that delivers the checks.
Pros
syncing for payroll
field notes is very helpful
bulk time input is great
Cons
the crumbs could be more realistic, than as the crow flies
The location of clock-out is not always the same as the clock-in location. May add the option of changing the clock-out location if different
Copy one person's timesheet to another person
location tags appear in another person's residence a few houses away or down the street. We know they are not in that location

We don't use all the detail oriented posibilities so I'm not much of an expert to comment on this.
We use ExakTime, which is a timekeeping app. It allows us to see where our employees geographics are, if they're approaching overtime, and makes cost coding transfer easy.
Pros
The support team answers all my questions
They provide video trainings
Make understanding the platform easy to understand
Cons
At this time no

I had trouble understanding how to do the daily approvals for our employees. The support team reached out to me and walked me through the steps.

Will another product integration we lost HR functionality in our primary HR software leading us to sign up with Arcoro HR after Sage Intacct made the recommendation.
Pros
in my experience, provides very minimal training
in my experience, sends support articles to resolve issues
in my opinion, failed to meet implementation expectations with Sage Intacct
in my experience, doesn't get back to customers on submitted support tickets for days
Cons
No disciplinary area for write up or verbal warnings
in my opinion, training needs to be redesigned for those that implement the system and still have to work their 60 hours a week at the same time.
Likelihood to Recommend
In my opinion, it is less appropriate for organizations that are smaller in nature with minimal operating staff and does not integrate with our payroll or accounting software. The concept is great as far as the life cycle of the employee and everything in one place.
We have implemented Arcoro HR’s ExakTime solution for a third-party field team. The software solution has allowed for Geo fencing personnel tracking as well as time and attendance, which has given transparency to our clients as well as made our timesheet and payment more seamless. by using this tool we have saved our accounting team several hours a week on time and attendance monitoring which has freed up their time to be used on other back office issues. Our third-party clients have enjoyed the transparency and Geo fencing to show that our workers are being honest with their project work.
Pros
Time
Attendance
Payroll
Cons
Pricing/cost
Faster implementation
Likelihood to Recommend
Easy tool, it does what we requested the tool do. The Arcoro HR ExakTime solution operates seamlessly with QuickBooks, allowing for time, attendance and payroll to be one seamless transaction for all of our field employees as well as a few W-2 employees.
