Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Connecteam is used as a central, AIO hub for our intra-team communication, time keeping, scheduling, LMS, and form management. Having multiple resources all in one app has been incredibly convenient, not just for our employees, but for our management team as well. The mobile app is also convenient as a quick access point for employees to manage their time sheets, ask questions, and submit relevant paperwork digitally.

Pros

Messaging
Timekeeping
Scheduling
Form Management

Cons

Time zone management across distributed teams

Return on Investment

Reduced costs overall. We no longer need Slack, a separate scheduling/timekeeping system, form compliance platform, etc.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Connecteam as our daily time clock management to run our payroll. Our team members are able to clock in and out. We can agragage time based on categories we have selected like office, customer or field travel. This helped us to determine cost for jobs as well as how much travel was consuming our technician time. We also use it to house individual employees' certifications that are job-specific to them. From time to time we need to communicate and track that the information was read and we do that with this application as well.

Pros

Daily team productivity with time clock feature
Easy of running weekly payroll reports
Employees to manage and own their time before being approved for payroll
Easy to add absences and PTO
Free until you need more than 10 users
It is great that you can tell where your employees are logging in from ie the office, home or in the field

Cons

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

Most Important Features

Time caputure - clock in clock out
Cloud-based so payroll reporting can be done even when you are not physically present (huge plus for small shops)
Archived record of time for employees

Return on Investment

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.
