BuddyPunch has been a huge tool in simplifying payroll and time tracking. Pros The ease of use for my staff and how simple it was to onboard the team. Our staff use to submit manual paper time cards, so they loved the switch to a simple digital system. Cons Variant hourly pay rates didn't seem to work correctly as the currency subtotals did not add up correctly or display in some cases. Also, it would be nice to be able to see subtotal of hours based on category. Switched from [QuickBooks Payroll](https://www.capterra.com/p/174981/QuickBooks/) QuickBooks time is extremely confusing for our staff and difficult to implement variant pay rates. Review Source Response from Buddy Punch May 7, 2025 So thrilled to hear that Buddy Punch simplified time tracking for you and your team, and that the onboarding experience was smooth and easy. It's great to know your staff appreciates the transition from manual to digital time tracking. We also appreciate your feedback on pay rates and subtotals based on category. Regarding this feedback, pay rates can be tricky at times but we're confident in the system's accuracy so we'd love to go over your pay rates with you to pinpoint any confusion and address any issues. Also, regarding pay rate visibility, typically, when a pay rate is not shown, this has to do with the effective date of the pay rate so this would be wise to double-check. Furthermore, we have Job Codes, which are labels for time. You create them, assign them to employees, and then employees can punch in and out of them creating subtotals based on category you mentioned.

I also appreciated the mobile app and GPS/photo features, which add accountability without making the process feel complicated. Overall, Buddy Punch helped streamline scheduling and payroll while reducing errors and confusion.

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

CV Clarissa V. counselor Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "it's fine for managers who don't trust staff to work" September 17, 2025 4.0 it's a good way for micromanagers to micromanage, however it does not account for the time spent trying to log in to punch in or punch out and now HR has us punch out to the the minute so even if we are in the building and talking to clients or staff in the building we are no longer getting paid as the punch out minutes are not rounded to nearest 15. so we have to sit and start at the minute hand to get our full time in. Pros now we autolmatically get over time instead of asking the boss for overtime because if we're stuck at work and we don't sign out we just automatically start acruing overtime. no more working from home for free Cons HR is now in control of our time and approves all final time stamps including being able to turn on and off geo fence and GPS tracking and changing our times Review Source Response from Buddy Punch September 18, 2025 Thanks for the thoughtful review and we’re glad the automatic overtime is helping prevent those “stuck at work” moments from turning into unpaid time. A quick note on the rest: settings like GPS/geofencing, approvals, punch rounding, and how you clock in/out are all chosen by your employer/account administrator. If any of those policies don’t match how your team works, we’d encourage you to share that feedback with your management for further discussion. If it’s helpful, your admin can loop us in and we’ll gladly walk them through options to best fit your workflow. Thanks again for using Buddy Punch! MS Madison S.

Regarding your punches not always being saved, please note that it's important that employees stay on the punch screen long enough for the punch to register and that you see your punch status change. If you navigate away before the punch registers, it won't be recorded. With this in mind, if you continue to have any issues, please reach out via live chat or email us at support@buddypunch.com so we can further troubleshoot together. Thanks again for using Buddy Punch! FH Fredrick H. Logistic Manager Internet Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Punch Buddy" September 16, 2025 5.0 It's been amazing for my contract workers. I no longer have to keep track of their timesheet with paper. Very sufficient. Pros It's very user friendly. Makes my job a lot easier. I used to have to keep track of all of my contract employees with time being written on paper. Now I actually see what they clock in and out. No more honor system. Cons Haven't really found in downsize to the app. I only use it to approve time for my contract workers. But so far so good. :-) Review Source Response from Buddy Punch September 17, 2025 Thank you for the wonderful review! We’re thrilled Buddy Punch has helped you move off paper and given you clear visibility into when your contractors clock in and out—no more “honor system” headaches. MP Meghan P.

Tax filings are done for me, and my managers are happy. Pros ease of processing payroll. I can run payroll in 5 minutes and management loves being able to see where everyone is while out in the field. Cons Unable to have two different pay schedules requiring an off cycle payroll every pay period for my salaried employees. Switched from [QuickBooks Online](https://www.capterra.com/p/190778/QuickBooks-Online/) Quickbooks could not service my company.
