Overall Satisfaction with ExakTime

I use ExakTime every week to process payroll for the company. ExakTime is excellent for our particular field of construction because the geofencing allows us to keep an accurrate account of the employees no matter the location. It is also particularly simple to make corrections in the system when individuals forget to clock in and out.

ExakTime has definitely enabled us to keep up with the fast pace of the industry. A great deal of people are glued to their phone, so making a time clock on their phone is simply the best. I like the fact that you can adjust the settings to make it mandatory for employees to take a picture of themselves at the job. This feature stops time theft.
It is very user friendly and not too hard to use for individuals who are not tech savvy. Most of our users appreciate the simplicity of clocking in, selecting cost codes assigned to projects, and leaving field notes. The field note section allows production to be saved so supervisors can keep track of job progression.
I used a software called Kronos, but it was actually for clocking in a warehouse where everyone is stationary. ExakTime is better suited for my particular field because we have multiple locations. I have also used ADP, but I prefer ExakTime because it is bundled with all the features that I need to keep track of my jobs.

I like how ExakTime geo fencing can narrow down how far an employee is from the work area before clocking in and out. The view sets to adjust cost codes for different projects is a plus. I also appreciate the pinpoint setup with the radius to determine the work zone is adjustable even after adding the address. There are often errors when trying to adjust time. I've seen people's time get doubled when a correction is needed.

Using ExakTime

145 - I have superintendents, foreman, administrative staff, and field employees that use Exaktime to punch their hours. The superintendents, foreman, and some administrative staff are salaried while the rest are hourly.
1 - I'm the sole Exaktime expert at the job site. I keep track of the time and make sure the employees are clocking in and out correctly. If there is an issue with geofencing I adjust the mapping so the employees can clock in appropriately. Exaktime can be monitored by a human resources assistants or payroll clerks which we have neither of. Math is definitely a skill that one must posses while operating Exaktime. A person must also know how to read a map and be able to negotiate grid coordinates.

  • still exploring
I don't have any major problems with Exaktime so I do not see a reason to switch to something else. All the bugs and learning curves have been worked out so move to another company will take too much time of which we do not have. I have become an Exaktime expert and don't trust another software that guarantees geofencing timekeeping.

Evaluating ExakTime and Competitors

Yes - ExakTime actually replaced the ProContractor program that we currently use. Exaktime is more user friendly and accountability oriented. In the construction industry, there are multiple projects that need to be completed at different locations. ExakTime allows us to keep track of the employees throughout the process of each project with the allocated time.
  • Integration with Other Systems
  • Ease of Use
The single most important factor in our decision was ease of use. We needed something that everyone generally would be able to operate without calling a tier 3 operator. Integration with other systems was also a key decision. The Accountlinx portion of ExakTime allows a generated spreadsheet to be uploaded into ProContractor to assign money to each cost code used.
I would not change my evaluation at all.
