### "Great Software"

December 17, 2018

5.0

Buddy Punch is a great program for tracking hours and very user friendly

Pros

The program is very user friendly and certainly makes each day simple in and out.

Cons

Sometimes it does not recognize punches when clocking in or out. Then I have to have my payroll specialist edit the punches.

Thank you Dustin for the review, it is great to hear that you're finding us user friendly and simple to use. In regards to punches, after you click the Punch In or Punch Out button you'll get a "please wait" message while the punch is saved. Then the screen will show the saved punch as well as your new status. Make sure to wait while the punch is saved and you get that confirmation. Thanks!

### "A good fit for our needs"

August 15, 2018

4.0

We are currently dealing with paper PTO requests and excel spreadsheet timecards. Having the whole timecard and PTO request process online and in one place will make everything much easier for us.

Pros

Buddypunch has all the features we need (manual punching, job coding, PTO requests, etc.) plus a simple and user-friendly experience. All the other applications we looked at were either way too robust for our small non-profit or didn't offer one of the key features we needed.

Cons

More flexibility with reporting would be nice.

### "I love this because it has the auto break feature!"

May 1, 2017

5.0

Pros

The automatic breaks that are automatically deducted is my favorite feature of Buddy Punch. The program I had before I had to do it manually everyday and as a business owner I just didn't have time.

Cons

A little costly in my opinion but worth the cost, it saves so much of my time. I already do all the accounting, payroll and everything else. This saves me time.

Response from Buddy Punch

May 5, 2017

Thank you for the 10/10 review Jackie, I'm glad that Buddy Punch saves you time. As you pointed out our automatic break feature will automatically deduct break time if employees are not able to punch in and out for breaks. Thank you for your business, we appreciate it!

### "we use it to manage about half a dozen employees time cards"

January 2, 2018

5.0

Pros

allows employees to clock in away from the office; no more trying to read faded-ink time card stamps. Software is not flashy but so easy to use, easy to add new employees, deactivate others, etc.

Cons

as an ag business, I don't think the software has the regular / overtime hours payroll type needed but it's a minor bug and easy to deal with as most of our employees are standard 40 hours/week.

Thank you Mark for the review, I'm glad that you're finding us easy to use! We support multiple overtime types, if we don't support yours we are happy to add in another type, I'll reach out to you for more detail. Thanks again!

### "Makes keeping up with employee time a breeze "

May 25, 2017

4.0

Pros

What I like most about the Buddy Punch software is that it integrates so well with my accounting software Quickbooks

Cons

I would have to say the only con with Buddy Punch software is that it does not allow admin to punch in and out.

Review Source

Response from Buddy Punch

May 26, 2017

Thank you for your review, we appreciate it. I'm glad you are using our QuickBooks integration. We have both QuickBooks Online and QuickBooks Desktop integrations for ease of use when transferring time out of Buddy Punch. In regards to the admins not being able to punch in and out, the admin accounts are free accounts and we advise admins to create employee accounts if they need to track their own time. We appreciate your business!

### "Simple and to the point!"

November 5, 2018

4.0

Pros

It was 100% dummy proof. Ultimately, it was decided that clocking in and out didn't fit our team structure, but it was necessary to test out.

Cons

I like that it was user-friendly so that people can clock in via an app as well as online, but it make's it easy for time card fraud if people can clock in on their mobile device from home or during their commute.

In regards to the comment on viewing banks of PTO, we do have that feature, it is called PTO Accruals. You can add banks of time to employees and then they can see that time and you can report on it. If you have any questions on how to use this feature, please let us know. Thank you.

So far so good!

Pros

The app and online site are user friendly so little to no training of our employees is needed.

### "Love BuddyPunch!"

April 12, 2016

5.0

We have been using BuddyPunch at our facility for seven months with eight employees. Our employees find it very user friendly and as an administrator, it has made the payroll process much easier and more accurate then using hand written time cards. One of the deciding factors for our company to go with BuddyPunch was that there was no special equipment we had to purchase. You can clock in/out from any smart device you have downloaded the app to. We have it set up to where our employees can only clock in/out from a specific iPad. I love BuddyPunch and highly recommend it.

January 18, 2019

We have 10 field workers who are working different shifts at any given time. Buddy Punch has made it easy to track and make sure they are staying within their 40 hours a week. The PTO calendar and requests are also easy to use.

Pros

Can easily see where everyone stands on their weekly time. Easy to use. Convenience of choice of using mobile app or desktop. PTO request system.

Cons

Would like to see notifications on the app. Cannot customize very much.
