Hi all

I'm trying to source a cost-effective time-clock system (preferably digital but will consider anything) for a small company. I've looked on the net but anything I've come across is either too pricey or looks a bit dodgy.

Has anyone any recommendations?

Thanks
Rebecca
 
Thanks - will check them out.

It's only 5 - 10 employees but with very flexible shift patterns related to rates of pay. There's a manual system, calculated afterwards in Excel but it's open to human error and 'cheating'.

What type of environment do you have ?, you can get software systems that work out cheaper than traditional clocks, only really works in an office environment, where people have access to PCs.
 
Hi ahhh ... I had dismissed them as being better suited for accounting/engineering/legal type offices whereas ours is a production/technical operation. But now that I think about it, there are network PCs on the factory floor and maybe signing in by PC would be as good as a swipe card and would be easy to network. I'll have another rummage!

Thanks again,
Rebecca
 
Hi MissRibena,

For what it's worth, you might want to check out the time tracking software over at TSheets.com. It's mostly web-based, so it may not be exactly what you're looking for, but it's basically designed for small businesses like yours. Employees just clock in/out via the custom url that you choose. Pretty simple.

I'm the CTO of TSheets, so I apologize if this comes across as an advertisement. Feel free to ping me with any questions :)

My sister is a HR manager and she tried to set-up that system in her company and it was a disaster.
Product was difficult to use, didn't meet her needs like the sales guy said and got fobbed off when she complained to the company.
