Controlar las horas de trabajo de mis empleados y la ubicación al momento de llegar e irse de un sitio de trabajo, excelente para pagar las horas de trabajo que realmente están cumpliendo
Puntos a favor
Es un software bastante convencional, lleva a diario el marcaje de las horas trabajadas de los trabajadores, si éstos la marcan y se conecta con mi software quickbooks automáticamente. Ademas de proporcionar la ubicación en tiempo real al momento del marcaje de la hora.
Puntos en contra
Lo que mas me ha costado es que los trabajadores se acostumbren a usar la aplicación, ya que ellos son los que deben marcar la hora y tener la ubicación de su móvil activada para que llegue la información completa que ofrece esta utilidad.

Perfect for my single shop business

Overall, I think it's good and I hope to use this software for a long time.
Puntos a favor
It is a well-organized method of scheduling both for me and my clients. It offers excellent customer service. The program has streamlined the buying and selling processes. It has a fantastic function that keeps all of my bills organized and current. My stock and shipment are both meticulously tracked, which is quite helpful. My inventory management process nearly took hours to complete, but with the use of this software, both my time and effort were saved. I finish all of my processes in under an hour. I can also spend my valuable time with my family because to this software. I am happy to utilize this software because it streamlines my workflow.
Puntos en contra
Some of the functions, according to what I discovered, require assistance during software installation, which is sort of a negative. Second, the process requires a reliable internet connection.I discovered while utilizing this system that the reporting on the back end is poor. As it takes longer to report orders, I had to manually enter some operations in order to reconcile payments. I was frequently requested to submit a feature request, which I didn't find particularly appealing.

Being a senior researcher, I have to keep a track of my projects and their deadlines. QuickBooks provides me with all the details and services I am looking for.

Puntos en contra
Monthly Subscriptions. There should be an option of lifetime subscription.

I like that I can see staffs hours on projects at all times and can make sure we are hitting minimum FTEs for invoicing. Staff can request time off and also manage their own travel calendars.
Puntos en contra
The integration with QBO is very very bad. We have staff that from pay period to pay period they lose access to approve reports, lose classes and project codes, and some of them it says (delete) next to their name. The integration between QBO, QBT, and bill.com needs to be improved.

I have been using QuickBooks Times for my small business for over a year now, And I cannot recommend this software enough. QuickBooks Times has been a game- changer in streamlining My financial management task and has saved me countless hours of manual work. Here's why I give QuickBooks Times a resounding 5-star review. QuickBooks Times boast an intuitive and user-friendly interface, making it incredible easy to navigate even for someone with limited accounting knowledge. The setup was straightforward, and I was able to get started with no confusion.
Puntos a favor
Quick books Times previously known as" TSheets, Quick books Times is a separate app that integrates seamlessly online, enabling users to track and manage employee working hours, overtime, and time- off.
Puntos en contra
Some users may find the pricing for Quick books Times to be relatively higher compared to other time tracking solutions in the market. While it offers robust features, the cost may be a concern for small businesses with limited budgets.

Easy to use and deploy
Revisado el 09-08-2023
Puntos a favor
Easy to use and deploy for any company of any size. The software is pretty intuitive and most staff are able to pick up and use the tool without any training. Makes time tracking a breeze and you're able to run reports and export the reports to Excel for data analysis.
Puntos en contra
Support could be better, sometimes they are hit or miss depending on who you get. Sometimes the support agent will have no clue what you're talking about and then you ask for someone else and they know exactly the solution. Support has been hit or miss for a while now.

This has been a great program that our business has used to track hours worked for payroll. We have multiple offices accross several counties and it's nice to have a central place that all of the hours are entered and available for HR to do payroll. Our company has also used this program as a schedule for our support staff and it's been very helpful to able to reference who is in what office so you know who to contact when you need to speak to a specific office.
Puntos a favor
TSheets has some flexibility in how you enter in your hours worked - they can be entered manually or by clocking in and out on the website. There is also a phone app for this program, so if you're on the go then this makes it easy to still track your hours or clock in/out. In addition, when you enter hours or clock in you have the ability to choose what "job" this was for. This is especially in tracking expenses for specific projects, jobs or offices. In addition, TSheets has a Schedule function. You are able to enter a schedule for all employees using the program and can specify what "job" the time is used for on the schedule.
Puntos en contra
When I use TSheets, I open up the website and just leave the browser up sometimes for weeks at a time. The only issue I've found is that when I do that, the schedule and/or time entries do not update to the next week automatically. It has to be done manually as it will continue to show the original week until "told" to change. It does work fine if you log out though. This is a specific problem for if you leave the browser open. This isn't really a big deal - it's easy enough to either click to the next week or just log out & log back in. It just surprised me though that it didn't auto-update when the week changed.

Puntos a favor
Ease of use. Ability to track jobs, tasks and employee location and hours. We are able to run several useful reports on jobs or employees. For any given day you can find out where your employee is as well as what he was doing specifically. The employee can also add notes to their time card.
Puntos en contra
There really aren't many cons. If Tsheets offered a foreman's daily report function , that would be great.

Probably the BEST customer support I've come across. As much as I complain... they've got seriously good customer support.
Puntos en contra
Not all jobs are customer based... So, this software is limited right off the bat from any complexity.. you'll have to work around and make it work and fit your needs
time sheet editing - It is aweful to just see time worked... maybe when review timesheets... you want to see what was scheduled... late clockins, incomplete shifts, skipped lunch breaks... kinda big deal
NO HR DATA- As I said, nothing to track employee issues. Your poor employee performance won't have much info here for you to keep track of.
Not an easy way to break a shift because your employee was too lazy to c/in and out
No auto stop for shifts- one employee had 4 days until the shift stopped recording time... I wanted to see how long it would keep creating shifts.. 180 hrs and it finally stopped (and I think I accidently closed the shift)
Time sheet closure... Broken... not smooth... so many other time sheet companies do this better.
No Employee shift exchange mechanism
No- Shifts by job not by customer
No- Shifts by location or job site
Employee reports and to do list
ADD - ONS... those are silly. Have the functionality or don't. Add-ons seem like it'll be a charging mechanism... like QB does... so... You can see the coming of "SUBSCRIPTION" based things ... and get nickel and dimed later. Just like QB.

I really took a leap of faith on this product because of what my businesses associates warned me about. I think that quickbooks Time is just not for certain businesses. Especially for smaller businesses with budget conscious projects that have to check time management to ensure I don't go over the payroll allotment for specific projects.
Puntos a favor
I was really excited about all of the features this product had to offer. I mean so MANY features but I was very intrigued by the possibility of me being able to utilize this as my one stop shop for scheduling/time tracking/PTO, sick leave management/project time. This seemed like a way I could closely monitor productivity to better stay in budget for projects. I was very thankful for the incredible customer service QuickBooks provided, I was able to come to the realization that this product probably was the best for the company with their truthful, honest assistance.
Puntos en contra
I really dislike the amount of redundant features advertised as individual separate features. It was frustrating to say the least. There also were quite a bit of times that I had problems with scheduling and features that work in real time. I know QuickBooks Time is advertised as being "simple and accurate" but it was far from that.

"Excellent customer service, good help line, they accommodate our demands in the office. I personally would advise my friends and relatives to use this site. Users being able to clock in independently while waiting for permissions is a victory for us. "Very easy to use, no diverting to other pages, I believe anyone can use it." Your personnel is well-informed, respectful, cordial, and upbeat at all times. They appear to genuinely care about and enjoy their work. The management is doing everything correctly.

My overall experience has been great with T-Sheets. I especially love the customer service. Whenever I have a question, the team is readily available by chat or phone to assist me with my needs in a short amount of time. Today, I had the pleasure of working witha customer service rep who's positive energy read through the chat. She immediately brightened my day with her responses and resolved my issue in record time. She also provided me with tools so that I could have more assistance at my finger tips.

T-Sheets is an great time tracking systems for employees who work on multiple projects in the field. Our company has found it to be a great asset to recording time for employees and verifying that they are in place when expected. We also like the variety of reports it is able to generate for ease of information.
Puntos en contra
What I like least has nothing to do with the product. There are just so many features that I barely have time to find out just how much the software can do. I have no doubt that in some cases I am not utilizing it to its full potential.
