Overall Satisfaction with Deputy
We use Deputy to simplify timesheet management. Started using it about two years ago when I first needed to hire people. I spent a few weeks evaluating other solutions and found Deputy to be the easiest to implement and use. It integrates with Xero, has self-service features, and doesn't cost too much. There are occasional bugs with shifts left open and syncing data to Xero, but the support has been responsive.
- Shift Management.
- Xero sync.
- Simplicity of use.
- Shifts are sometimes left open when doing self-service clock out.
- Xero sync broke twice in one year.
- Less paperwork to do.
- Hands off approach.
I tried a few other solutions (can't remember their names now) and Deputy was the easiest to use.
