Best choice--and i looked at a lot of software options
Pros
I use this on a farm and I can tabulate hours and write paychecks without having to leave the office and track down paper logins. The reports are great for reviewing seasonal hours and projecting employee budgets for the upcoming season or preparing taxes at year end. When I'm out of town, I can make sure that employees are on the job at the time we agreed upon because I can see their log in remotely. Also, I like restricting log ins to a single device (on-farm tablet) so I can be sure the clock in and clock outs are occurring in real time at the farm and not on the drive home, etc.
Cons
Not a major complaint, but the dashboard is not as intuitive as it could be. I have to fish around to remember how to find all shifts. Also, maybe a personal device issue or internet connection issue, but we have a few missed logins per month. And I don't mean employees forget to log in--but it's just not recorded on one or the other end of the day. Sometimes they end up with 23 hours of work in a day :) I can spot that and correct it easily though.

Easy and inexpensive
Pros
This software is very easy to use and intuitive to figure out. We have 10 employees. We have had about 20 employees use it over the years. None have had an issue figuring it out. Also the mobile apps are great
Cons
They were a little slow to adopt mobile. Their stuff opened on mobile but it wasn't mobile friendly. But they fixed all that!

Simple and basic
Easy time keeping software.
Pros
I love that is is easy to use, and has a sleek design. My employees have no problem editing their shifts for approval and they clock in and out within minutes.
Cons
The shift approvals could use more work and have to go back and forth to change things and look at shifts.

ClockIn portal is very easy to use and reliable
Pros
I like the price and the simple, yet effective layout. It is also nice that you can view cumulative hours in the reports section.
Cons
I wish the bottom week section would always show the current week instead of reverting back to the first week when I began using clockIn portal
Response from ClockIn Portal

Keeping track of employee hours is a breeze
ClockIn Portal is a web app that allows me to track how many hours my employees work on a daily basis, the reports are easy to read and my bookkeeper uses them to process our payroll. ClockIn Portal is very affordable and gives me the peace of mind knowing that my employees are securely reporting their work times. Thank you to the ClockIn Portal development team for being so responsive to my feedback, we will be using this app for many years to come!
Pros
Easy to use online interface
Reports for payroll
Integration with Google Apps
Cons
Lacks fingerprint clock in

Such an easy product to use
This product is the best I have come into contact with. Able to clock in and out with ease. This product lets employees keep track of their hours at the tip of their finger. This product is easy to use even by those who are not tech savvy. I highly recommend this to any employer who would like to digitally keep track of their employees.

I'm simply in love with clock in portal
Wow, I never expected to like clock in portal that much. A friend of mine advised me to use it 4 my company. I decided to give it a try before paying. I used it for only ten days and fell in love with it. All the features I need are there. It's user friendly. And very simple.

Hi Adam,
Thank you for your review! We are very happy that you like our product and find it useful. Please do not hesitate to contact us with feedback, questions, or additional comments.
Thank you!
Both our farm hands and our office workers use this application and we have been very happy with it!
This really streamlines our payroll process. We have farm hands and office workers and the farm hands are rarely in the office, so this helps us be able to quickly and efficiently receive and record their hours without the hassle of them needing to physically be present in the office.
Pros
Love the addition of the iPhone compatible application. Much easier to use for our manual labor-type and on the go employees to use.
Cons
The main thing we wanted was an iPhone compatible app and that has been produced, so we don't have any other complaints/wishes at this time.

Hi Lauren,
Thanks for your great review! We're happy to hear that ClockIn Portal helps your business by making your job easier. We're really proud of our app integration and are confident that it will continue to satisfy your business needs.
Thank you
Overall, a great service for a handful of employees to clock in/out to record their hours.
no cons, If I had to include a con I would Wish it allowed for unlimited "lunch breaks" because a nursing mama working from home sometimes needs more than 5 breaks in a work day.
Pros
Intuitive interface is attractive and easy to use. Off-site employees can access and use it just as easily as in-house workers.

Hi Sara,

Easy, simple and straightforward! Very user friendly.
Pros
I love using the app on my iPhone as well as logging in on my desktop. I also love being able to print off the reports at the end of each pay period when I calculate payroll for our small business.
Cons
I wish that there was a way to use the app without using data. Some of our employees find themselves in low service areas and have trouble accessing the app to clock in/out when they are in the field.

Cons
1. Limited up to 4 breaks can't it be expanded to at least 10 or ideally unlimited number of break periods?
2. Can't do multiple approvals for a series of dates that are not Pending
3. Can't input notes during Approval of Pending items; that is, need to Edit to input my notes

Hi Damaria,
We strive to provide a reliable and easy solution to your business's time tracking needs. We appreciate your review and are glad that you are enjoying the features of our product.
Thank you
I enjoyed using this software. It made tracking employees clocking in, clocking out and break.
The benefit I got from this software is it lessened battles with employees about them clocking in or out on time and it helped to ensure employees from taking unauthorized breaks.
Pros
What I liked the most about this software it is made my employees more productive because I was able to ensure everyone was where they were suppose to be and that they were working their entire shift and taking their breaks at the proper time
Cons
There was not anything I did not like about the software. I think it was great. I would not change one thing about it.

Hi Cassandra,
Thanks for your review! We're really happy to hear that our product provides a convenient solution for your time tracking needs. Thank you for using and supporting ClockIn Portal.
I like it, the approval process could be more intuitive.
Pros
Ease of use for employees and I can monitor their clocking in and out remotely. I also like the fact that I can quickly review past punches.
Cons
Approving time should be on a grid to mass approve a single employees time, this is by far the slowest part of the whole process. The messaging from employee to employer could be better as week.
Response from ClockIn Portal
Hi Shaun,
Thank you for reviewing ClockIn Portal. We've taken note of your suggestions, and forwarded them to our product team.
Thanks!
I had a good experience with it
Pros
easy to use is always a plus. I like how easy it is to make employees active and inactive, change and add them
Clockin Portal is great for business owners/managers
I am a small business owner and I was looking for a tool to track my employee hours. I found ClockIn Portal, was able to sign up in minutes and my employees receive credentials by email to log into their account and to Clock In and Clock Out. ClockIn Portal is perfect and you are able to use them to track miles, add hours and prepare for payroll.
Soon after I joined, the company came out with both an iOS and Android app and my employees are now able to Clock In from their phones. The ClockIn Portal support team is always available to answer all of my questions.
I tried ClockIn Portal and several other apps but ClockIn Portal stood out because my employees were able to use it very easily and my manager loved the reporting functionality. I would definitely recommend it to other business owners looking to track their employee work hours.
Pros
You are able to use it to track miles, add hours and prepare for payroll.
Cons
None! This app was perfect!
Great job
I love it.
There is nothing to complain about. I love it. my family, people at work, my boss, vendors, everyone has told me to tell you guys what a great job you've done.
Pros

Clock In portal is a convenient way to track employee hours.
It was easy for me to prepare my payroll and to keep track of employee hours.
Pros
I liked the way my employee hours could be tracked from a specific address since some work from home
Cons
I would like to be able to customize a bit more. I like the idea of creating my own reports when I need to.

Likelihood to recommend: 3.0/10
It was a great app
A ton
Pros
The speed of it was amazing. It was fast and prompt and it didn't take much time to operate. I didn't understand how to work it at first but I eventually figured it out.
Cons
It was confusing to understand at first but I eventually got it. It was quite obvious that I need to brush up on my skills!

It's basic and to the point for a small business
I was able to keep track of my employees with out spending too much money.
Pros
It's easy to use, both for the employer and employee. Employee is able to make change request to their time, when an error was made. It also shows you were they clocked in. This is extremely useful, when working in a manufacturing plant that doesn't allow the use of an app to clock in.
Cons
You can not get 2 weeks of regular labor hours summed and OT hours summed, per person. It has to be done weekly.
Response from ClockIn Portal
Hi Karen,
Thanks for your review. We're happy to hear that you're able to use ClockIn Portal for effecient and simple time tracking. Our software uses weekly summaries to account for all types of payroll processing, but I will relay your feedback to our product team.
Thank you for using ClockIn Portal!
Perfect for what it does
Pros
It is so easy for our employees to clock in and out. There is a lunch function too. The app will remind them if they forget to clock in or out. Our admin is able to make corrections as needed.
Cons
It would be nice if we could keep track of PTO, holidays, sick days, etc with this app. Currently we have to use a separate spreadsheet for not. Not a deal breaker but it would be nice.
