Supervisor

Pros

“This allows me to punch in and out while I am on the road and can not use the physical punch in system that is located at out shop.”

Max P.

Business Developer

“It integrates well with Quickbooks Enterprise however, you do have to refresh the software connection every other payroll or so or the time has a tendency to not connect.”

Katie J.

Office Manager

“I like that employees can use both the physical clocks and the app to clock in and out since my employees are often on the move.”

Office Manager

Cons

“Missing tax accounts and never figured out or notified us for months- that payments were being withheld- but we had no account set up for withholding- to deposit tax payments in.”

Ronda R.

Bookkeeping

“Occasional mobile app glitches and syncing delays can also be frustrating, especially for staff in the field.”

Wendell M.

RFD

“My paystubs and tax information is not available on the app so I must navigate to a website which is not as user friendly for mobile.”

Reggie W.

Driver

Cons

“What I liked least about PayClock Online is that its interface feels somewhat outdated, and customization options—especially for reports and integrations—can be limited compared to more modern platforms.”
