The implementation part was a massive headache, I understand any new software is going to be a headache initially, but this was beyond that. 

One example, during implementation, I specifically said I did not want lunch breaks to be a set amount of time. I want my employees to be able to clock back in from lunch when they want. This did not happen. 
An entire shift of employees were clocked out for a full hour every day. They did not want to help me fix this problem at first, and the first response I received from OUR REPRESENTATIVE was a snapshot of the customer service phone number and email. Why would I be given customer service reps if I am going to be directed to a hotline? It took them a full FIVE days to get this issue resolved.

Another issue we had that was just mind-boggling was that we were told NOVAtime INTEGRATES with QuickBooks; exporting and importing is NOT integration. These are the steps required to send timesheets to QuickBooks: navigate to timesheets in NOVAtime, save timesheets, process time sheets, refresh the pay period, process again, go to reports, preview to check for mistakes, export, process yet again, download timesheets, save timesheets to desktop, go to QuickBooks, go to file, go to utilities, go to import, select IFF, find the correct file, upload timesheets, and then you are finally ready to begin payroll. This is NOT integration and takes more mouse clicks than necessary.

App is far from user-friendly. Web-version is not much better.

Don't Waste Your Time and Money

I am able to view employee punches and information in real time, rather than having to pull the time into the software manually.  The software is fast, reliable, and can be further configured to meet needs other than time-keeping.  The users are happy because they need go no further than their own computers to enter their time, and I don't have to hunt down their paperwork.  Novatime has made my work life infinitely easier!

Time Clock Software that Conforms to YOUR Business

I've been using Novatime for the past 4 to 5 months now. It's loads pretty fast, however, after they added a few more tabs to it recently, it has slowed down a bit.

Clocking in and out with ease!

Good Time Entry Tool

We use NovaTime for all timesheets for exempt & nonexempt employees.

Time Mangement

NOVAtime has provided the services we needed from them.  No matter what program you use there are quirks associated with them and this one is no different.  For whatever reason I can only log in from clicking the link on my desktop.  When I click a link from an email notification it doesn't recognize me.  Just weird. 
The reporting function is cumbersome but does provide a lot of options for reporting which is useful as long as you can figure out how to extract what you need. Overall happy with the product.

Timecards

I have been a user of Novatime for less than 6 months. I track my leave accrual and hours. Leave requests auto populate to hourly tracking sheet 

Timesheet management software

"No matter how big your company is, NOVAtime is a great system that has a myriad of options to meet your needs.

NOVAtime Time and Attendance Meets our Needs

System is pretty easy to use. Anytime I need help just call the support line and majority of the time my issue is resolved on the first call. 

Great Customer Support

We've used Novatime for over 10 years.  We currently run in-house with 5 clocks, phone clock in and users logging in via the employee kiosk.  We do not have the system calculate accruals, however, we import them from our payroll system and do use them to keep employees from going over their earned time off.  We also use the vacation scheduling feature.

HRIS Manager

Unique customization and customer support.

NOVATime is a robust Time & Attendance system offering plenty of customization and reporting options

I'd much rather have just one system that is able to accommodate time card punches, HRIS and payroll. It would save me so much time, especially during our busy season. 

It works relatively well for the cost.

Decent Workforce Management Software

Shines in Timekeeping and Basic Features

NovaTime just upgraded the look of their system and made it even more visually appealing and easy to use with a nice dashboard. Love it!
