Product Details

What is QuickBooks Time?

QuickBooks Time (formerly TSheets) is a cloud-based time tracking and scheduling app that allows employees to clock in and out from the job site with the devices they’ve already got in their pockets. The vendor aims to help companies replace paper timesheets with accurate, electronic time data as well as make payroll and invoicing faster and less costly.

QuickBooks Time also accurately tracks time and GPS points (even without cell or internet service) then automatically syncs when back in service, making it a better (and cheaper) alternative to geofencing.

The Who’s Working” feature enables companies to see where employees are located and who’s working on what in real time. QuickBooks Time also features in-app scheduling that allows users to drag and drop shifts, assign jobs, see who’s working at a glance, and send alerts to managers if employees haven’t clocked in for a job or shift as scheduled.

The vendor offers free unlimited phone, email, and chat support to all customers.

Until the time off function is corrected, we would not recommend this product to anyone. It might be well suited for smaller organizations that rely on other methods of time off submissions.

Quickbooks had QB Timer as a free and simple timesheet application that was easy to use by staff, managers, and accountants. Then there were T-Sheets. It was not as simple and certainly not free. Then there was Time...what a disaster. If you want to see some recent reviews since Intuit screwed everything up, check out the Goole Play reviews for this app, mostly 1 star because they can't give anything lower. Enough said.

Terrible customer service

We have no issues with the software; however, the customer service is shocking. After experiencing some technical issues with our payment method, we have contacted the support team on several occasions and have gotten nowhere. It has been over a month now with no resolution in sight despite me and a colleague chasing the matter daily through phone calls and live chats. My colleague has been placed on hold for extended periods and then hung up on most likely because no one can be bothered to deal with the problem. Every time we do get through to a person, we are told the matter has been escalated and someone will be in touch, however, we have heard nothing. Again, I wouldn't fault the software itself but if you do stumble upon a technical issue expect no support. Extremely disappointing considering our company has been using QuickBooks for several years now.

QuickBooks Time is well suited for those companies that are looking to track time, in real time, down to the Cost Code/Department. This software works well for companies that want to provide their employees the ability to manually track their time and PTO. For organizations with multiple Management levels, QuickBooks Time is perfect. You can provide Supervisors with a real time view of their employees and provide them the ability to edit their employees' time if needed.

It would be very useful for certain remote jobs that require a high level of presence, as in the case of web development, or remote maintenance sessions, so that when reviewing the work data it is possible to ensure that there will be no failures. By being able to include files in the management, from the equipment tab, it is possible to fully control the hours in which each change in these files were made.

TSheets for the win!

I find TSheets helpful to smaller nonprofit organizations. The cost is reasonable for what’s provided. I recall being the only user at one point but as my team grew, I added new users with no issues to TSheets. I appreciate the simplicity of the “add new user” feature. I’ve never had an employee ask questions on how to operate the application which saves me time.

TSheets will work better for its core use case, which is I think hourly billable hours. We sometimes have people context-switch many times a day and to do this within TSheets takes a lot of work, from the feedback I've received. People often forget to change, and I need to chase them down at the end of the week to fill in gaps or make fixes. It would work great if you were spending 4-8 hours a day on the same project.

TSheets is first and foremost a clock-in, clock-out app. This is how they started and they have this mastered. This feature can be used by any company, anywhere in the world. It generates quick payroll reports and has saved us A LOT of time in calculating payroll. It also allows us to have more accurate payroll numbers.

We rely on TSheets for scheduling staff for shifts in our event company. The schedule allows us to categorize events by type and add detailed notes. It also sends shift reminders to staff and allows for quick clock-in for such shifts. I suspect this would be really helpful for a restaurant or any other company that needs specific staff in specific places or roles at different times. The scheduler would be less helpful for companies that have 8-5 employees that don't need specific, per shift information.

It's a great tool for tracking time against projects and tracking which hours are billable vs non-billable. It helps us even track hours across different companies within our parent organization. It's well suited for a company that lives and dies on billable hours. It's also well suited for organizations with teams that need team managers to review and approve hours.

TSheets works well for us as a small business/nonprofit that doesn't have a dedicated human resources department. As the chief executive, I set it up and really don't have to do much to manage it day-to-day. Even with an HR department, I would expect TSheets would be valuable.

It's great for any company that has employees who work remotely. It's nice to be able to see exactly where everyone is when they're clocked in (especially when you have many different events happening at the same time on the same date). It also allows you to put in notes to each of your logs, so it's a very easy way to track which employees worked which event(s) on any given day. The back end of the website is also very user-friendly and allows for manual timekeeping by our staffing coordinator. She is able to go in after the fact and easily edit times and notes for each employee. It may not be the best program if all staff is in-house and never ventures out - I can't see a use for the mobile app portion of the program for a company that works strictly from a central office. However, if you're managing a lot of remote employees and want to make sure they're where they say they are, it's a really smart program to use.

TSheets helps management determine where their employees' time is being spent and reveals patterns. From there we can figure out the "why" behind all the time spent at those properties and what we can do about it. Is it the location of the property that makes it hard to rent? Is the pricing reasonable/comparable for the area? Is it because the owner has no funds for updating the property? Is it because it's a college area and people usually only stay a year or two? Should we begin charging the owner per showing to recuperate costs? Should we increase management fees in the next contract? Should we keep managing this property?

I don't think TSheets is helpful in older businesses (such as my current place of work). The older generation doesn't have smartphones and don't use computers and some don't want to learn new technology. We do a lot of paperwork here, and it's not necessarily a bad thing, but I don't think it would be a good fit for this business.

TSheets does a great job at quickly and efficiently managing and reporting employee time and assigning it to projects for billing purposes. We needed a time management system that is easy for our employees to use and TSheets has been that for us. The easier the reporting system, the more our employees can focus on billable hours and customer service.

TSheets is a great addition for any business looking to streamline their billing process. It is very user-friendly and easy for both Administrators and Employees alike. It has so many capabilities to make time tracking easier.
The only thing that I have noticed is a bit tricky is calculating overtime into our software system. It nicely uploads all the time, but doesn't always mark it as regular or overtime, so you have to be careful of that.

For clients that are service based this is an excellent way to track employees. You want to know if employees are truly working their route in a timely fashion and not goofing off. Plus you know their daily hours. No surprises on the actual time employees work when they turn in their time sheet. You can know at any time their hours worked by just checking the app.
