Pros

“About once or twice a week, it will either fail to clock me in or clock me out early, which requires me to manually correct my timecards to ensure my hours are accurate.”

Andrea B.

Administrative assitance

“I also appreciated that it kept track of my work schedule and timesheets in one place, making it easier to verify my hours.”

Marcus W.

Security

“Accurate and a thorough representation of the steps needed to clock in and track your mileage and precise hours in a shift.”

Chántelle A.

Energy Consultant

Pros

“What I like is that it is simple and does not disturbs my workflow, and I could generate reports that could help me envision my daily working hour allocation for time management and focus on priorities.”

Kamini V.

Software Engineer

“What I like about the most with clockify is the fact that I could keep track of the employees clocking in on the sites with the GPS locator as well as keeping track of the billing hours.”

Sheila K.

Admin

“Every morning I fire up Clockify’s quick‑start timer, click the project icon, and it auto‑tags my work with the client’s name and billable rate, so I never forget to bill.”

Grace R.

Senior Project Manager

Cons

“However, that experience is hindered by recurring technical glitches that cause the system to drop punches or clock me out early once or twice a week. While the tool is easy to understand and use, its reliability needs improvement to eliminate the need for frequent manual timecard corrections.”

Andrea B.

Administrative assitance

“However, I cannot edit within the employee information when this happens unless a password resent link is sent to the patient, which means I have to wait on the employee - I have mostly given up when this has happened a few times, because it is not worth the extra time.”

Malinda C.

Manager

“The thin I least liked about OnTheClock is having to click "clock in/out" and then having to click an additional button to actually clock in or out.”

Cameron V.

Law Clerk

Cons

“Card-funded payments and instant deposits make the fee line harder to predict than a simple flat rate, which complicates how we quote clients.”

Christopher F.

Brand Strategy Lead

“I also found that manual time tracking relies heavily on user consistency, so if timers aren’t started or stopped accurately, it can affect data reliability. While the interface is clean, deeper analytics and automation felt a bit basic compared to more robust time‑tracking tools.”

Radha S.

Legal Assistant

“I do not like that there is a limit on Un-archiving Old Employees (Seasonal) since I have to Manually Reactivate each one every single time, which is a complete waste of time.”
