Maria H
Dir. of Admin and Finance
5.0

Maria H.: Hi, I'm Maria. I'm the Director of Administration and Finance at First Presbyterian Church in Lake Wales, and I give Connecteam five stars. We used to be using a different online time clock program, but I was notified that the price was going up by 50% about a week before that date. I started looking around because we're a non-profit, and I saw that Connecteam had extremely high ratings. And so that's why we tried it. I really liked the idea of the idea of the geofencing because our church is kind of spread out in a couple different buildings. And the nursery workers were able to go right to work, and they didn't have to come by the office all the time to clock in and out. Same thing for the custodians, if they were ready to take their lunchtime, they could just clock out or clock back in. The geofencing was amazing. It also worked for our secretary, who would take deposits to the bank, and she could clock out there on her way home. And then, as an administrator, I could approve it, and she did not have to come back to the office to clock out or anything. It's very easy. Even our custodian, that's a little challenged when it comes to using electronic devices, after the first day, she just loves it. It's very easy. I like the reports. And the tech support person that did help me finalize a couple things on setup was just amazing. And the best part of it all is, since we have less than 10 people on the program, it's free for us, which is a help for a charity. And we all love it. I did have a little glitch on startup. There were a couple things I had questions on. We are a small company, and I wanted to make sure that I got it set up just right. And I was able to sign up for 15 minutes or so with one of their tech support people, who was just amazing. So setup went very seamlessly after that. It's just a great program and very easy to use. It gives us all the information that we need. So Connecteam is perfect, I think, for either small companies or large companies. It is so filled with just different things you can do with it that it would handle multiple locations or just a single location with just a handful of people. So I would say, definitely give it a look, give it a try. It's an amazing program, and I think you'll be very happy with it.

Jeanette A
Executive Director
5.0

Jeanette A: Hi, I'm Jeanette. I'm an executive director, and I love PayClock Online. I give it a rating of a five. And for more reviews like this, click below. So before PayClock Online, we used a lot of different products. They really didn't work out for us because they wouldn't register people's faces. They didn't keep track accurately of the time they were getting, and they could be logged-in by other people. So buddy punching was the thing, and we didn't really like that. We chose PayClock Online because it was really a lot simpler for the organization as a whole. We were able to log into this system from any computer, so it wasn't limited to simply one user who could make changes. And it was really flexible for our staff because now they can clock-in from their phones or from the computer or using the face recognition time clock. So that's why we decided to make the switch. Onboarding with PayClock Online was really simple. All we had to do was enter our employee information, and that was that. There was not a lot of setup involved. We were able to get going within a single day, so we really liked that. So if you're thinking about getting PayClock Online, I thoroughly encourage you to do this. Be prepared to get everybody enrolled in the software. If you're going to use the facial recognition program, be prepared to get everybody's faces enrolled, and get the software set up. It's just that simple. I would encourage you to do it. I really don't have any reasons that you shouldn't get PayClock Online.
