KeyPay - Fantastic product
Reviewed on 2019/10/01
Pros
You can try the system before you buy! Since implementing KeyPay, the time and attendance app Clock Me In gives visibility of timesheets allowing the HR and payroll team – and supervisors – to see time worked by employees and whether staff may have forgotten to clock in or out.
Eliminating the need to check data and chase staff, payroll went from being a day long process a week to a couple of hours. What’s more, staff no longer have to use physical fob keys, so there is no risk of loss or costs for replacing any hardware, which was previously a growing expense.
Cons
The rostering system does not suit our business roles and patterns which means we can't make the most of having an in built rostering system! The Clock Me In app not being able to operate or store data if tablet goes offline. Ongoing support - not being able to pick up the phone and explain a query to someone but having to put it into words via email.
Response from KeyPay

Pros
KeyPay honestly makes processing payroll a breeze... It's the most easy to use, streamlined system I've had the pleasure of using. The built in Award interpreter is fantastic!!
Cons
There have been a few functions that haven't worked as expected, but once raised with the team, they are fixed or added to the development list for improvement.

Through Quickbooks, not that great abd very poor service
Pros
.as a stand alon it is ok to have built in award
Cons
Worst thing they have done is transferring service to Quickbooks online
They are inexperienced, tickets take months to resolve and not fully resolved
Me personally
If Quickbooks and employment Hero insists of having integrated payroll within Quickbooks
I will have to find a complete alternative as it is not efficient way to run a business Luis it is not cheap as well

Pros
Our employees work across different locations. We are able to capture the wages costs per location by creating location cost centres which are linked to our GL software

Would like some better reporting options or data extracts

Frustrating. We just got onboard with Keypay and the staff adjusted to using Workzone, when KeyPay changed the app and ceased workzone. Which meant staff had to get used to SWAG , which didn't work for many staff until we worked out that they had to uninstall it, disable their biometric access functions on their phones, then reinstall it. It still doesn't work for a few staff and there's no assistance to fix it.
Pros
The interface is user friendly and the leave calendar is clear.
Cons
When our staff put in their travel kilometers they have to use the timesheets function. Which means having to approve about an additional 200 timesheets every fortnight. Plus using timesheets is misleading in that they are not actually timesheets but travel exenses. And then we have to use the expenses function for other travel expenses such as tolls and parking. Plus when you go to approve leave you can't access the leave calendar on the same page.
