### "Awesome!"

December 18, 2019

5.0

The freedom with this program is amazing. Overall experience is a very positive one!

Pros

I love being able to punch in and out from my phone. It's super easy to use and user-friendly as well. Compared to other programs like Peoplesoft and corporate software, this is the best I've seen. It's simple and can still get the job done.

Cons

My only issue is that it loads a bit slow while logging in on my phone. Other than that, I have no complaints!

### "Excellent support, product works perfectly for our employees, using an iPad to clocking/out"

September 25, 2017

5.0

accurate employee start/end times.

Pros

iPad compatibility is nice. The browser based admin panel is comprehensive and offers a good dashboard. The iPhone app for admins is very handy too. Zapier integration is a nice feature

Cons

occasionally some employees don't register their clock ins or outs properly - more likely to be user error though. IFTTT integration would be preferable to Zapier.

### "Buddy Punch"

March 20, 2019

4.0

over all I really like the system because it is straight forward. Also very to punch in and punch out

Pros

A couple of things I like are how easy it is to sign in and punch in. I also liked that if I forget to punch in I can easily edit my punch in for the day. It is easy to check your hours and previous week hours as well.

Cons

The one thing I didn't like it trying to edit a punch in when you have forgotten to punch out for the day. It punches you out at midnight but when you go back to edit it, it gets confusing.

Thank you Lorena for the review, it is great to hear that you are finding us easy to use. It sounds like your administrator has a feature enabled to automatically punch you out and then back in at midnight. This keeps time within each day, but it can also be disabled. Thanks again, we appreciate the review!

### "Loving Buddy Punch"

November 25, 2018

4.0

Pros

The simplicity of it works... for myself and the users. We've tried other online timesheets and the users just seemed to be challenged by them with submitting hours.

Cons

Two things I would love: 1) The timesheet printout (pdf) is there but could be formatted neater, and 2) the ability to enter in a negative adjustment amount (which I know is a big request).

Response from Buddy Punch

November 26, 2018

Thank you for the review, it is great to hear that you and your employees are finding us simple to use. We do have a PDF formatted option called the Employee Detail Report. You'll find it under the reports menu item. While you can adjust any punch in or out, I believe you are looking to save a negative number. While we can't save a negative number today I've added your request to our customer request list. Thank you.

### "Buddy Punch - Great tool to have!"

March 24, 2021

5.0

This product allows me to see who is off, and make sure I have available staff to get our projects done. I am a Salary employee, so not required to punch in, but I find it a Valuable toool to track my our hours and make sure that I am not becoming a work-a-holic.

Pros

product is easy to use-punch in and out, track vacation, sick days. Also check in to see who is off during the week or month.

Cons

I don't feel that there isnt anything i dont care for.

October 11, 2017

5.0

Pros

Easy to use. Punching in and out with different codes allows us to job track and track where our crews are.... it has been a great tool for us.

Cons

The app is not always up to date for me? Sometimes it shows no one is clocked in, but on my computer dashboard, I can see 4 guys clocked in.

### "Goodbye timecards!"

June 3, 2019

5.0

We have staff located in various areas of our golf course, and no centrally located time clock. The geofence was a breeze to set up, and all employees can clock in and out on their phones within their designated work area.

Pros

Ease of use by employees on their cell phones.

Cons

It could use a few more reports , or changes in existing reports. I would like to print reports and timecards by department or geofence. And an alert via text or email or somewhere on the employee's app when they log in that they did not clock out, instead of having Buddy Punch automatically clock them out after so many hours.

November 24, 2020

5.0

Pros

I like the ease of use, it is set up to pretty much enter exactly when I work and makes it easy to do so.

Cons

The software could use improvements to track hours using state rules/labor laws to display overtime more accurately.

September 11, 2017

5.0

Pros

It's ease of use. I don't have to buy a time clock and it can be used anywhere. My employees can download the app and use it on their phone.

Cons

Sometimes it does not clock out my employee. Usually happens on a Friday. They are automatically clocked out at 4 am and clocked in on Saturday.

Thank you for your review Ryan, it is great to hear that Buddy Punch is easy to use and that you are using our smartphone apps as well. Sorry for any confusion on the automatic punch out feature, that kicks in only if an employee works over a specific amount of time. Please let me know if you have any questions on this feature, we are happy to help.

### "Time Saver"

February 4, 2019

5.0

It saves me a lot of time. We used to use time cards that had to be processed, which was very time consuming. Buddy Punch is simple.

Pros

I like it because it is easy to use.. Staff members sign in, punch in, punch out.. the software does the rest.

Cons

I really cannot think of anything that I like least about the software.

I would say it has been positive. It's easy to use and is effective.

Pros

Quick, user friendly. You dont have to remember much to use it.

Cons

Often I will punch in/out and the punch does not register, so it keeps me clocked in/out.

Not keeping paper timesheets anymore.

Pros

Ease of use and reporting at week end. Very easy for everyone. Getting new people set up is also easy.

I wish I could have all employees active each week even though I mostly only have 7-8 signing in and out each week.

Thanks for the feedback on active employees - you control who is active and inactive as it is based on the plan that you are on. I'm glad that you are off of paper time cards!
