Inexpensive and simple, but beware of software limitations

IncentivizedUse Cases and Deployment Scope
We have just under 100 employees across 5 different offices and it helps unify and centralize employee clock-in and clock-out. Before we used a paper system that the accountant doing the payroll had to tally up. This was very time consuming and was resulting in some calculation errors. The benefit with WaspTime is that it does all the reporting for you automatically.
Pros
- Time goes from the swipe of a card to an accessible database that employees have access to immediately.
- Managers can review and adjust clocked times.
- Automatically generates reports, there are about 30-40 different available, but we only use one for payroll.
Cons
- Doesn't calculate overtime for Canadian properly as our rules are slightly different and consider both daily and weekly total for overtime.
- Can't set own payroll cut off days, as a company we had to abide by their given rules.
- Problem calculating times for weeks splitting two cut-off periods. The problem is that the software is not considering the fact that the worker has worked the whole week and that the rest of the week is overtime.
Likelihood to Recommend
If your employees are in a regular schedule (i.e. 9 to 5) with no overtime then WaspTime is well suited for you. In our case, we have different shifts, overtime, weekends, and double-overtime and we feel the software limitation since we have to double-check and use alternate Excel sheets to calculate the time.
Our decision was also financial. We didn't want to pay every monthly forever, so in that aspect, WaspTime was one of the few prospects that kept it affordable.
