- Accurate Timesheets (cost savings) - after we implemented Deputy, we realized it's across close to 50 employees. We started saving at least 10% to 15% of total hours as employees were clocking early and later previously and we did not have a security measures like Deputy. This is close to $200-$250 savings across the whole payroll per month.
- Time Saving - with the payroll implementation, we increased the efficiency of the payroll. It used to take almost half a day to prepare the payroll but now, it takes only few hours including final confirmation with multiple managers.
- Improved Accuracy - it helped us to run much accurate and smoother payroll and time sheeting as it is all approved and it is very transparent by the employee. There is no question when it comes to the finalization of the reports.
Easy to use!

- Time saved is huge.
- What we save in ADP's time and attendance, we pay for Deputy. So the cost is minimal with a maximum return.
- Deputy is one-stop shop for punching in and out, tracking each staffs performance, asking their mood for the day (morale), communicating, and scheduling.

- Saved administration time where payroll used to take 2 hours it now takes 5 minutes
- Accountability for employees as Deputy creates a map of where employees sign in and out from
- Saved time for creating rosters as I used to create a word document each week which I would need to enter each employees name whereas the information is now saved
- Rosters can be copied to another week so a roster could be completed with the touch of a button and then adjusted
