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.

I heart TSheets

Our firm uses QuickBooks Online and TSheets integrates beautifully. We use it to track time spent on our clients' projects. It saves time with respect to recording and processing timesheets, as well as making preparation of invoices related to that work much easier. It is easy to use "on the go" with the mobile app and it's nice to be able to see who is working on what at any given time during the day.
  • Integration with QuickBooks Online
  • Mobile app using GPS tracking
  • Reduces stress of filling out a time sheet because you enter as you go.
  • I would like to see the ability to pause a timeclock so that another can be started, which will allow you to go back to that project you were working on just by restarting the clock.
Anytime you want to keep track of when your employees are working, TSheets should be considered. Their product is always being improved upon, which is really nice. They have great customer service - you can get detailed assistance at lightening speed. For example, when Kaitlin helped me today, she picked up the phone on the first ring! I felt like I was talking to a teammate and not someone in a data support center. It was obvious she enjoyed her work and was enthusiastic about helping me.

TSheets time saver

We are a restoration and general contractor. All of our employees in the field use TSheets to track time on the jobs for individual customers. TSheets saves a great deal of data entry time and improves accuracy for billing and job costing.
  • It's easy for our technicians to change from one job to another in the field for accurate job costing
  • For our purposes, TSheets works great!
TSheets syncs easily and quickly with QuickBooks saving time in data entry.

I have been working diligently with the technical support team, spearheaded by Celena, to resolve very specific needs that my client has in the schedule application of the product. My client owns a larger service company where the specific needs of scheduling were requiring upwards of 40 to 50 hours of managed labor weekly. The requested ability for field staff to choose and apply their respective schedules from available shifts was not only technical in nature but required significant testing and vetting. Celena worked tirelessly with me and her team to complete a process and design to meet the needs of my client and drastically reduce the amount of managed time required to oversee and cover shifts all over state. I have had the privilege of working with many software providers ranging from CRM to accounting and have NEVER received the level of one on one care and personal attention that I did with Celena or the TSheets team. I look forward to a very long and professional relationship with the TSheets team!
  • Responsive to emails and phone calls!!
  • Listening thoroughly through the question before responding to ensure they fully understand the overall scope prior to answering.
  • Have an amazing upbeat attitude. It is obvious that this atmosphere is cultivated from the top down.
  • Hold music is way to loud!!! :-) often times I would have my client on a webx conference call to address questions or concerns and while placed on hold to find additional information we could not talk to one another because of the music volume.
  • The overall management of open schedules was addressed very well with a "work around" creating "Ghost" employees and allowing field personnel management access to see and apply the schedules to themselves only. This may be such a unique feature that it would never be used by anyone else but I would like to see it coded and rolled out in future versions.
  • There is currently no way to allow managers of groups, or the above Ghost accounts, aware if the schedule has modified or dropped by an employee. It would be nice to see bi directional communication with groups not just one to one .
[It's] Very well suited for the field service environment where the location of an employee while working is relative as well as the clock in/clock out functionality.

TSheets is being used to run all time tracking for our entire company across the whole organization. It addresses the excessive overhead that the company experiences in regards to time tracking and payroll. We are able to decrease our time involved with payroll by at least 50% after running our first payroll using the platform.
  • Extremely simple and user-friendly
  • Extremely easy to on-board all employees
  • The best customer support that you can call over and over
  • Nothing so far
[It's] The best platform for time tracking I've seen so far period. Customer service is extremely helpful and provides insight every step of the way for all TSheets users. It is suited for any business that needs to track time accurately. Denise was really helpful in helping us process our first payroll and giving us the support we needed. If you do not need to track time, then TSheets is less appropriate.

We've used TSheets for a while to track time and overall it works great. We've recently transitioned who runs it and have had a few issues with the transfer but the TSheets support staff has been amazing at being friendly, knowledgeable, encouraging, and able to solve our problems. Today I worked with Amanda and she did an amazing job of trying a few ideas until she was finally able to solve our problem.
  • Keeps track of our teams' hours (which customer they are working for and what they are doing) so we can track not just the hours per job but the types of hours per job.
  • Updates to QuickBooks to help us make sure everyone is paid what they are supposed to and when they are supposed to. Both super important.
  • It's easy to use and figure out, has a friendly interface with apps to support it for use on your smart device when away from your desktop.
  • The transition to a new administrator is difficult. We've had multiple issues and it seems like it's solved and then something pops up.
As stated it's great for tracking our hours, both work and PTO. We're able to learn more about our business and what jobs take how much time.

TSheets is our only form of time tracking. We use the mobile applications for our employees in the field as well as the online version for our office personnel. We integrate TSheets with QuickBooks in order to do payroll and track vacation time.
  • Tracks multiple jobs and services
  • Enables tracking of employee vacation
  • Works well for all levels of employees
  • Connection with QuickBooks needs improvement
This application works well for employees who work from various locations for the same company.

We have started using TSheets and love the QuickBooks integration and the flexibility of the program. I use it as a mobile device and the office uses it on their desktops and I find their time is more accurate and accounted for correctly. Their customer service is outstanding and BD1 Rocked!!
  • Easily lets you move from one client to another and back again.
  • Allows for breaks and lunch automatically.
  • Sync directly with QuickBooks.
  • More training at startup.
Especially helpful for keeping track of movement from one job to another. This also provides ability to know where your employees are with GPS tracking.

My team uses Tsheets to manage schedules for remote employees across the Pacific Northwest. We have employees clocking in and out of tournaments with no on-site supervision, so the geo tracker is a great way for us to make sure they were where we asked them to be when it comes time for payroll.
  • Geo Tracking
  • User Interface
  • A chat option where our employees could send me questions they have while clocked into their shift.
I like the simplicity of the user interface on the managerial end as well as on the employee end.

Tsheets is helping solve the billable hours issues and create a seamless connectivity to QuickBooks. Each employee is connected and can access easily via the web or app.
  • Quick connectivity with QuickBooks.
  • Easily accessible via the app and web.
  • AMAZING customer service.
  • We're still at the beginning stages of utilizing Tsheets and haven't found any issues that their support team hasn't resolved.
Their customer support is amazing. I have never seen a group of people so willing to help you solve your issues.

The tech support is awesome! I have had a couple of instances where I got stuck with an issue and agent EM1 (Elaina) really really helped me. Kudos to her for her patience and helping nature. Thanks to her and Tsheets
  • Time Sheets
  • Training our admins better because it seems there is some disconnect
It is a good electronic way of timekeeping - No more hassle due forgetting to get time sheets to be signed by my manager, and then getting paid late.

We have recently converted to QBO (Quick Books Online). TSheets allows us to job cost our payroll on QBO which does not work with their software alone. The phone and ipad login options work perfect for our employees at multiple locations and we photo stamp our property staff to be sure they are logging in for themselves.
  • Clocking in from any location with time, location and photo stamp capable.
  • Compatible with Quick Books Online.
  • Allows QBO to separate hours to multiple jobs, which can't be done on Quick Books online alone.
  • Add compatibility to Wells Fargo payroll service.
Works best for companies who have traveling employees or multiple offices. Probably not the best if you have a location with no internet and no one has a PDA phone or computer.

We have been using TSheets for our field cleaners. It has been great as it gives them the ability to clock in and out of each job during the day. They can keep track of their hours for the week and know what homes were cleaned by them during the week.
  • TSheets eliminates manual data entry for the back office.
  • TSheets syncs with Quickbooks (our accounting software) seamlessly, no redundancy.
  • Tsheets customer service is top notch! It is actually a pleasant experience to call customer support.
  • None at this time.
This is a great app for any field service business. I am sorry I waited so long to get on board with it. It has made my life and my employees' lives so much more simplified. I also spend a lot less time processing my payroll each week which is nice.

We use Tsheets for time sheets tracking and scheduling. It is a very useful tool for our business, and the customer support is always amazing. Thanks Alicia!
  • Clocking in/out for remote employees. The GPS function allows you to always see where your team is while on the clock.
  • The scheduling app allows our field technician to see their schedule without coming to the office.
  • I wish the scheduling feature would export into excel when you want to view the final schedule for the week.
Great for time tracking and scheduling.

TSheets is used in replacement of paper timesheets. It has been great not to have all the approvers sign the paper form and return it back to payroll. Also the transition from paper timesheets time entry to automatic time entry has been great. Elaine (EM1) was a big help in setting up TSheets for our company. TSheets employees are always courteous and fast for answering questions that we have.
  • Easy time entry for employees
  • Fairly easy setup
  • Great connection with Quickbooks
  • Scheduling should talk with timesheets. Should be able to click on scheduled time to appear on timesheet.
  • Need to be able to change header for "Customer" when syncing with quickbooks
  • Need to be able to customize how many rows an employee sees in their timesheet.
For our company, we are a school. This is well suited for when you want to transition from paper to electronic. We spend a lot of time tracking down paper timesheets and spend a lot of time doing manual entry of time. This streamlined the payroll about 50%-60% of the time.

Tsheets is very easy to use and most of the issues / questions we have can be solved using their Live Chat feature. It has helped to streamline our payroll process. They are also very quick to respond if for some reason we do have to call in and talk to their help desk. (Generally is is because we have upgraded computer equipment and want help to walk us through updating the Web Sync features.) BD1
  • Track employees current locations using GPS when they are logged in using the app on their smart phone.
  • Allows us to look up historical time data quickly.
  • Locking the time sheets once they have been imported into QB keeps employees from going back and changing their time.
  • A few more reporting options would be better to pull reports not only be time periods and employees, but maybe by customer's also
  • Allow for multiple payroll schedules
It has worked for pretty much every aspect of our time tracking needs. Other than allowing for multiple payroll schedules within the samy company I'm not sure what other scenarios it would be more appropriate for.

TSheets is incredibly easy to use and understand. There's no millions of reports or buttons to use. It's organized like a spreadsheet, and all you do is fill it in. The integration with QuickBooks is rapid and complete. Absolutely no complaints!
  • Ease of use. Can use it 'right out of the box' so to speak. Link it to QuickBooks, set up your workers, and off you go.
  • Reliable - the system has never been 'down' to my knowledge.
  • Mobility. I'm able to connect on multiple devices with no problem.
  • Tech support. When I have run into an issue, I've always been able to get a hold of someone quickly and get it resolved.
The product works well with organizations that need to manage groups of workers against a number of clients. We do a lot of project management jobs, so we need to track service items against about 20 clients with several workers who tend to be in the field. So, they need to be able to enter time remotely.

I needed a simple cohesive time sheet program that is easy to use and integrates with QuickBooks and QuickBooks Online. I needed a system that allowed my staff to enter time by client, in real time.
  • Accumulates time by staff member and by client
  • Sync records with Quickbooks
  • Easy to set up
  • It would be nice if the program synced automatically
  • The layout is good, but when entering time, for whatever reason, once I have allocated the time, I have to be carefull that the charge code and descriptions are being entered in the boxes correlating to the time entry
  • I would prefer not to have to approve time
It is a very flexible program that really, for the most part, allows
you to tailor the program for your needs
