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.

We are a decentralized organization in that we have no corporate office and all employees work from home. On top of that, our 20 employees are spread across 9 different states. All of our employees use TSheets to log their hours by project. This allows us to quickly and efficiently generate our monthly customer invoices at the end of the month. As a small company, cash flow management is extremely critical for us. Generating invoices quickly at month end helps us to maximize our cash flow as expeditiously as possible and thereby minimize our borrowings on our line of credit.
  • Ease of Use-As an administrator I have found that TSheets is easy to learn and use.
  • Minimal Training Required-As new employees are hired, the setup and training has been minimal. The software is intuitive and straightforward and as a result I have minimal questions and follow-up from new hires after they are provided with the initial training.
  • Reporting is great-The reports are so helpful in managing our business by providing weekly and monthly reporting for our managers. In addition, the monthly reporting supports or customer invoicing process, limiting and reducing the time it takes to get the invoices generated and to our customers.
  • I would like to see more functionality around rounding of time.
  • In the Report Filters, I don't find the "Customer" selection process easy to use.
  • Without "archiving employees" I'd like to see another way to get employees from showing in the selection list...maybe an "inactive" code.
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 has definitely reduced the time that it takes for us to generate our monthly invoices and as a result our cash flow from those invoices is expedited.
  • TSheets' ease of use allows our "billable" employees to focus their time on revenue generating business and minimize administrative time.
  • Since I receive very infrequent questions from employees concerning TSheets (questions on how to use, functionality, etc.) I know the software is not resulting in employee frustration and exasperation.
Our employees find TSheets easy to use and spend minimal time at reporting hours using it. As an administrator and user of the TSheets "data and information" I am extremely positive on the functionality and reporting that it has provided me. From its ease of set-up to training to reporting, TSheets has made us so much more efficient from an administration standpoint.
When we have had questions concerning functionality, we have called/emailed the help desk and received clear and concise direction and instructions. To be honest, we have had very few instances where we have had to make inquiries. most of the time a quick Google has provided the needed information and guidance.
None of the other systems we looked at provided us with the functionality that we needed and were looking for. Everything that we considered, from using an Excel spreadsheet to software products that were supposedly easy to use, provided us with what we needed...that being simple to set-up, use and understand for all that also provided quick and meaningful reporting for managers and administration. TSheets was an easy choice for us.

TSheets is the main time card system for our company, from our office staff to our employees in the field. It allows us to track, support, and effectively clock in for all our jobs. We use it to help track vacation and sick time accruals for all employees so they have an up to date amount weekly.
  • Customer Service support is amazing: no matter who I speak with they are patient and educate me on their system. They take the time to do it right! Thank you - Elaina M., Jen, and Angel are all great at what they do.
  • The sync ability to communicate with QuickBooks allows me to process our payroll painlessly. It clearly tells me any errors we are missing.
  • TSheets is another great way for our employees to keep track of their PTO time. It remains up to date with every pay period.
  • Customer support can help track down and explain why errors occur and how you can get it fixed even on a time crunch. Elaina M. Is a lifesaver at this!
  • I would love to see more classes from TSheets or customization for internal training handouts.
  • We would love to have the sync system be set up for more than one computer as we cross check our payroll. It would allow us to fix problems and not have to stop multiple working to resolve issues.
TSheets is great for companies that have employees on the road or are traveling a lot. It helps us cost our construction projects down to the job level.
  • TSheets has cut our payroll time down and made it easy to transfer the time to QuickBooks. It saves me the headache of data entry every week.
This is the first experience we have had with TSheets but with the customer service and support for all of our staff and franchises, we are not looking elsewhere.
Elaina M. is amazing to help us with our questions and problems. She is knowledgeable in fixing sync errors, communicating what other support options T-Sheets has available and always being kind and polite. Everyone we've worked with has been positive, outgoing, and helpful whether we do the live chat, call them up or email our customer service reps.
No
How about we receive exceptional support for the product EVERY time we need it!
  • Versatility to access mobile or on a desktop makes it easy for an entire construction company to utilize the time system.
  • Ability to GPS track our staff is such a great safety coverage we did not expect to discover.
Yes
We utilize both android and apple products with no conflicts what so ever. It tracks our field techs and lets them clock in and change jobs effortlessly. Our office staff can keep an eye on all of our crews and use the system for their time!
The system is intuitive, can be customized, and multifunctional. Any industry, size of company or non-tech savvy people can use this!

We are a small business (<10 employees). TSheets is only used by 4 of those employees, the two laborers out in the field, our part-time accountant helper and myself, the manager. If we hire any seasonal or part-time employees we will set them up with TSheets as well.

It is so much simpler than keeping track of and individually logging hours worked, so it has made payroll significantly simpler. It has also provided us with a great way to track past work. It is easy to forget what you and/or your crew were working on 6 months or a year ago. TSheets keeps all that info and makes it a breeze to look it all up.
  • Simplifies payroll.
  • Just print out a weekly or bi-weekly report!
  • Simplifies invoicing.
  • By syncing with Quickbooks, it makes customer management and invoicing for hours worked much easier to manage.
  • Helps reduce timesheet fudging.
  • It's harder to falsify timesheets when every entry is logged with GPS tracking!
  • Most of the functionality is great, but I did notice one minor detail: like sometimes when I switch customers if the app doesn't immediately sync then I might find that the next time I try to switch customers it is still clocked-in on the first customer and it can be impossible to figure out exactly when you tried to switch originally. Other than that, any time I've had an issue the TSheets customer service team is exceptionally good and fast at helping me fix the problem or find a solution. As a matter of fact, I just had Jen D help me solve an issue faster than it took me to explain my issue to her!
I can't think of any scenarios where TSheets would not be a useful time-tracking system for a business; whether employees work at a desk, at home, at a job site or between multiple locations throughout the day, whether you are a one-person operation or a huge corporation with hundreds of employees, TSheets is the best substitute for paper punch-cards I have ever seen.
  • I was able to reduce my time spent working on time tracking and payroll from +/- 5 hrs/week down to less than one hour.
  • I have also had multiple circumstances where I had to look into past work history. TSheets makes looking up anything in the past a breeze, searchable through date(s), employee(s), location(s), etc.
Prior to using TSheets, our employees were writing physical work logs on paper, which then had to be delivered to me so that I could then transcribe all the information onto an excel spreadsheet. It was a tedious and ineffective process. When we started looking for software we had no idea what we needed as we had never used any comparable programs in the past. We came across TSheets and compared it to some of the other options at the time. The reviews for TSheets were exceptional, and the description was exactly what I was looking for. I guess I got lucky on the first shot.
Yes
I am beyond pleased with TSheets' usability
