Owner Performing Arts Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Works perfectly but could use some tweaks" May 5, 2025 4.0 Love it! 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.

It’s reliable, easy to navigate, and has made time tracking and payroll much more efficient. While there are a few limitations with advanced features and reporting customization, the system performs well day to day and helps streamline workforce management with minimal hassle. Pros What I liked most about Buddy Punch was how simple and user-friendly it is.

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. Cons One downside of Buddy Punch is that some advanced features are lockeds which can be limiting for smaller organizations. Occasional mobile app glitches and syncing delays can also be frustrating, especially for staff in the field. The reporting tools, while useful, could offer more customization, and integrations with certain payroll systems are somewhat limited.

Bookkeeper Entertainment Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Recommending Buddy Punch " July 15, 2025 5.0 Easy business tool for all employees to punch in and out as well as to monitor there times. Vacation hrs. etc.... Pros I like that it can be easily used on the mobile phone and computer. You can locate where an employee has punched in or out. I like how it notifies by email when employee are late or forgets to punch out, and it is easily fixable. Cons That on occasion my punchouts don't register. Haven't figured out why yet. Also access to certain areas can only be accessed by managers. Review Source Response from Buddy Punch July 16, 2025 Thank you for your feedback! We're so glad to hear that you’ve found Buddy Punch to be a helpful and easy-to-use tool across both mobile and desktop. It’s great that features like punch location tracking and email notifications are helping your team stay on top of timekeeping—especially when it comes to missed punches or late clock-outs. Regarding occasional punch-outs not registering, one thing to keep in mind is that after punching in or out, it's vital to remain on the punch screen until you see your punch status change. If the screen is navigated away from too quickly, the punch may not be recorded. If this happens again, we recommend checking your punch status and grabbing a quick screenshot just in case—it can be really helpful for troubleshooting. As certain areas being restricted for Managers, that’s a setting determined by account permissions, but we’re happy to walk you through available options if there’s a different level of access you'd prefer.

We're really glad to hear that the system has been easy to understand and navigate, and that punching in/out, tracking time, and keeping up with PTO have all been smooth for you. Regarding the need to have your supervisor make changes to your timecard—your permissions are set by your employer, so some organizations prefer to limit edits to managers for accuracy and compliance. That said, we completely understand wanting clarity on how to view messages or how punch corrections may be submitted. If you'd ever like a quick walkthrough, our Support Team would be more than happy to guide you step-by-step. We truly appreciate your feedback and are glad you’ve found Support easy to reach when needed. If anything else comes up or there’s another way we can help, please don’t hesitate to reach out!

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! NM Norma M. Library Aide Education Management Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Rapid Time" September 22, 2025 5.0 I enjoy using Buddy Punch, no issues using it. My app at previous job had to have am, or pm added and constantly having glitch issues. I was constantly having to correct issues. I don't have any of those issues with Buddy Punch, simple and easy to use, just in or out. Pros It is simple and easy to use. No issue using the app. I like that it is just two clicks and I am clocked in or out. The longest part of clocking in or out is waiting on the Internet. Cons I liked Buddy Punch fine, no issues. It was just getting on the same schedule as school. Clocking in exactly at 8 am and out at 3:30 pm. Review Source Response from Buddy Punch September 29, 2025 Thank you for the thoughtful review—we love hearing that clocking in/out is fast and reliable for you!

Highly recommend. This app has been quite nice since things can be stressful at times when you first start a position. Pros Super user friendly! Very Easy to use. It has various different options for employees that can be utilized. Great App! Cons Automatic clock out after 12 hours is inconvenient at times. It does give you the ability to correct the punch.

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!

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.
