Good solution for Biometric time recording

Okay experience. Has taken a lot of invested time to understand the system and get it implemented - Months when we thought it might be weeks, but now at a point where its working relatively smoothly. Too early to tell if we are making savings (compared to old system of employee input timesheets), but that wasn't the big intention for us. We wanted something that make our overall processes easier (for employees, reviewers and payroll), and early indications are this is a bit easier. Their support team has been great through the process.
Pros
Does what it says on the packet - Records in and out time for employees. Gives us confidence we are correctly paying our staff.
Cons
Would like CSV outputs to be a lot cleaner than they are for external analysis.
The Palm / Fingerprint scanner is good, but not great. 1 or 2 times a week we are getting someone's time entry recorded against someone else (perhaps 0.5% of entries).
Lots of tiny little bugs that can add up. But on the flipside the support team is easy to get in touch with and quick to get things sorted.

Overall, we've had a great experience with Timecloud. I have recommended it to my peers in the industry and would encourage considering software in this space to seriously consider Timecloud. Great work!
Pros
It was super easy to implement and has made time tracking a breeze. For a company that manages so many projects, we really needed a comprehensive solution to eliminate the need for multiple other software subscriptions AND save a lot in the process. We couldn't be happier!
Cons
It's a smaller company, so the software is not as 'slick' as some other big players out there, but the functionality is incredible, and so well suited to (I'm sure) many other businesses that would usually opt for a bigger provider.

Pros
it would be good to set my own parameters when running reports. rather then running a report only for a period, but select my dates.
Cons
it should be mandatory that the team add a cost centre, they should be unable to change to OUT status if not Cost centre has been selected.

Glenn has been my contact throughout our experience with Time cloud and he has listened to my situation, shown a good understanding of the needs of my business and provided excellent solutions to my issues.
Pros
The user friendliness and versatility of the system, the fact it can be accessed by staff via mobile phone on my shop floor saves time.
Cons
Time cloud is of course cloud based which is very convenient but the down side of cloud based systems is the lock in to an external system over the long term and IT systems are constantly changing.

Overall, Timecloud has met our expectations. We now have better visibility on everyone's time and attendance. Super handy as our accountants were working from home or are in an offsite office.
Pros
Timecloud makes it super-efficient for tracking clock-in and clock-out times, which eliminated the need for manual recordings. The CSV file at the end makes uploading it to our payroll a breeze. It helped speed up the payroll process as we continue to grow time. Their customer service was pretty good too, there was no issue they weren't able to fix in a timely manner.
Cons
The biometric scanner is pretty good, but it can miss a person clock-in or out even if they actually did. It seems like a system upgrade help address this issue as we don't see it as much, but it is something to look out for.

Time Cloud - Acacia Furniture
Reviewed on 2021/11/02
Been excellent for us. I recommend it to everyone I talk to when discussing this area in a business.
Been excellent for us. I recommend it to everyone I talk to when discussing this area in a business.
Pros
We are a family business that has been operating since 1981. Our business didn't have any forms of data collection for about 25 years. Time cloud has allowed up to report on all the activities that are happening in the business, eg machinery maintenance, goods received, jobs. This has allowed us to create a report on how many hours we are spending on non-billable activities vs how many hours we are adding value. The program gives us a host of options for reporting and it very easy to use.
Cons
I would love to see further updates done to the expected costs feature. For example an area where freight costs and material costs could be put in. That way it would lead to a report that could give you all the expected costs of a job + the labour cost and then maybe even add in an invoice amount which in turn leads to a GP amount + GP percentage for each job.

TimeCloud assists in keeping an accurate time of staff clocking in and out. Invariably their time sheets are different but able to pay accurately due to the times captured by TimeCloud Attendance.
Pros
The business already had a version of TimeCloud and had to be upgraded with new hardware. Installation and reprogramming was efficient.
Cons
If s staff member clocks in at 07.30 am and leaves for the day at 11.30 am for the day, I was unable to apply sick leave for the balance hours. Day Card Standard does not record the split between NT and SL

Timecloud has been a very welcomed addition to our time keeping procedures, by all staff. It has not only saved us money on our weekly wage bill, but it have made the processing of Payroll a breeze.
Pros
I love the fact that biometric Timecloud time clock give us live up to data of who is currently at work. And as the Directors travel a lot, this information is accessible where ever they are. Furthermore, it has also provided us with piece of mind by ensuring our employees are being paid correctly.
When is comes to processing our weekly payroll, now this can be completed with the simple click, I can upload my payroll information into MYOB payroll software. No more spending an hours manually calculating employees hour and entering them individually into MYOB payroll system.
Cons
As Timecloud's mobile app is reliant on the use of the internet / data, at times our merchandising staff have experienced difficulty logging their hours via the mobile app.

Had a few hiccups starting off - communication between Time-cloud and our business was murky at best - training in the systems operations was lacking, but their customer service and immediate attention to our concerns were addressed quickly and we appreciated that. They are very open to conversation about our needs and have been responsive to everything we have asked
Pros
How easy it is for the end user to use. We needed something that wouldn't have a big impact on our staff workload, this is super easy for them to open the app and clock in and out without hassle

We are saving a lot of time and money on managing workers shifts as this can be done remotely by them. The ease of use for staff means that it is simple and easy for them to use. The team at Timecloud are the biggest benefit to this software. To work with such a community minded service is a wonderful experience. All staff work very hard to ensure positive results and their customer service is unmatched!
Pros
The software is user friendly and basic which limits the errors that can occur. This in turn has a positive impact on back end work.
Cons
There were some minor miscommunications in the implementation that meant certain functions did not work as we thought however the team at Timecloud worked effortlessly to resolve this with us.

Before Timecloud we used to spend more than 2 hours to track hours and do payroll, now we don't take more than 10 minutes to get payment done and hours tracking became to much easier and more efficient.
Pros
Reports and integration with Xero. These 2 features get my life so much easier.
Cons
Dashboard doesn't make much sense to us as we don't use the schedule feature.
Reports are not ready to work with the data, we need to get it ready so we can calculate hours, create pivot table, apply filters, etc.
There is no option to get a report that shows me "break" column and "job code" column, I need to generate two reports.

As you can gather I do not have a high opinion of the program BUT I due to a number of our staff hours not transferring to MYOB I have had contact with [SENSITIVE CONTENT] who has done his darndest to sort this for us. Even he could not figure what the problem was so had to create a whole new report for us to transfer hours from Timecloud to MYOB. I found [SENSITIVE CONTENT] great to converse with - I would give him a 5 Star review for his manner and patience to guide me through to a solution.
Pros
That you have a good tech to assist with problems.
Cons
After using the MYOB software this is no comparison. This is a very slow and if one moves too fast on it there is an extra slow or no movement to the next empoyee. It bombs out sometimes. Perhaps with too many employees or too much outdated information stored it will not transfer info to our MYOB EXO payroll program.
