Overall Satisfaction with Tenrox Professional Services Automation
Our entire agency uses Tenrox as our timesheet and labor distribution tool which we export to Paychex for payroll purposes. Basically our Tenrox timesheet looks like a glorified Excel spreadsheet where our employees manually input their hours worked on various contracts to the nearest quarter hour every pay period which is semi-monthly.
- We love that our timesheets are pre-populated with all our employee's assigned contracts and we get to control what is on their timesheet as far as funder and contract codes.
- Tenrox did very well with our integration and getting a timesheet that exports well with our payroll provider.
- Tenrox has a great email reminder system for when people need to submit or approve timesheets.
- Their customer service is horrible, every email I send they insist on following up with a scheduled phone conference to tell me they can't help me. I have wasted hours on conference calls over the years.
- They upgrade their products but none of their upgrades will work with their current customer's system or "customizations". We are stuck with a 5 year old product that will only work with Internet Explorer on a PC and only when the browser is in compatibility mode. Even this functionality is touch and go.
- They have continuously failed to make time off accruals for a semi-monthly payroll a possibility.
- Anytime you ask them to upgrade you to their latest product they first tell you that will be another $3,000 and then they find out their upgrade isn't compatible with your settings.
- Tenrox has streamlined our payroll process as far as timesheets are concerned.
