### "I would never used a wall Time Clock again."

July 31, 2019

5.0

Making payroll is some easy. I can get last weeks timecard reports is less than a minute. I love the fact that I can give the employee a report of their complete last year times and show them just how many times they were late for work. This is a good report​ to show when they ask for a raise.​

Pros

No Timecards needed, no ink needed, no time clock that breaks down needed. No need to transfer time card information into a database​. Able to get a history report of any employee for any time period. Able to make changes on employee times. We need this because sometimes the employee will start or finish there day at a different location other than the shop. The employee​ is able to look up their​ total weekly hours anytime they are logged​ on. Converts time from hours and minutes to hourly decimal​ number. I never had to train anyone how to use the system except how to log on.

Cons

Does not work when the Internet goes downs. This happens​ about 2 or 3 times a year. But we can correct​ their times after it comes back on.

Reason for choosing IDEAblox

I found Ideablox on google because of my timeclock of 2 years broke down and timeclocks are not cheap. If you add up all your expense of using a timeclock Ideablox is really less expensive.

### "Easy to use!"

July 30, 2019

5.0

We have had several good results from using IDEAblox. First, employees are more punctual. They realize on their own that they are a few minutes late. Therefore, they are generally reliable to correct the issue without the director bringing it to their attention. Secondly, it requires less time to process the payroll, allowing our time to be put to better use than just checking other's math skills!

Pros

We like that it tracks in real time but still allows an employee to make changes. Since the administrator must approve the change, it is still a reliable original source. The price makes it very affordable for small non-profits on tight budgets.

Cons

I am also responsible for Human Resources and have not had any complaints about it's ease of use or problems with any functionality.

### "Saves me more than it costs me"

July 31, 2019

5.0

Before IDEAblox, my employees were giving me paper time sheets. The times they clocked in/out were always round numbers (3:00, 8:30, etc...) and I know that wasn't the actual time. They would also not fill out their timesheets daily and would "remember" their time and fill it in when it was time to turn them in. I know that I was overpaying in wages due to these two things. Now they clock in when they start working and clock out when they leave and there is no question as to when that is. I save WAY more than the monthly fee just by their timesheets being accurate.

Pros

It is really easy to clock in and out.

Cons

Only one computer can be used to clock in and clock out.

### "TimeBlox Clocks Erroneous TImes Almost Always"

July 23, 2019

1.0

Pros

It functions to clock in and out of work.

Cons

Almost every time I punch in or out, the time is off by up to three minutes before or after the actual time I am punching in. I see no reason why this should need to happen, as previous software I have used was accurate down to the second. It makes it difficult for staff and for HR to keep track of time when it looks like your break was up to six minutes longer than it actually was, and you have to leave notes asking for times to be corrected every time you clock in or out. I also found the request time off function to be unhelpful as it never tells you if time off was approved. Overall a regularly frustrating experience.

### "Serves its purpose"

July 23, 2019

4.0

I know that we use this system to track working hours in another location, so it probably works well for them. On my end however it seems like an overly complicated system used to perform a very simple task. If there were any way to smooth out the process of asking for time off it would earn a better rating.

Pros

I use this software to request time off. I was able to do so within a reasonable amount of time.

Cons

I accidentally submitted my requests twice but this was only because the system did not redirect me to a new page or show any sort of obvious confirmation that I had already submitted my request. Therefore I doubted myself and proceeded and to submit again, and I was unable to retract my repeated request afterward. It's also somewhat tedious having to use two different logins to get into my account - first its the general login and then access to my profile in particular. It's not the simplest thing to do only because you have to remember login information to gain access, and not everyone pays enough attention to those sort of details.

### "Easy to use, great for the cost"

July 23, 2019

5.0

We had an issue with our point of sale software's built in time clock function. There is a limited number of instances of the software that can be used at one time...this posed an issue for us with our business layout and different department structures. Having an online option solved our issues immediately.

Pros

Ease of use, cost is very manageable. Each employee managing their own clock-ins with the ability to have a memo feature if there are any issues or they forgot to clock in our out is very nice. They used to have to manually tell management for a fix, and that wasn't efficient at all.

Cons

It would be nice to have report options on "inactive" employees.

### "Ideablox Rocks"

July 23, 2019

5.0

Pros

Ideablox is user friendly and has many options. I love that it tracks time off and that there are different options for the type of time off that is requested. You can also personalize it to meet your specific needs. It is an accurate way of tracking time and you can access it from any computer if you choose to do so, or you can make it only accesible to certain IP addresses.

Cons

I haven't found anything yet that I do not like.

Reason for choosing IDEAblox

OMS Vision didn't give me all of the options I needed.

### "no more headaches "

July 30, 2019

5.0

I absolutely love this software. I no longer have to calculate and take a long period of time trying to figure out the times that were not added, or staff complaining about co workers taking longer for their breaks. all over its a win -win. I absolutely tell all my colleagues about it.

Pros

I could round off time and my staff is more likely to be in the office on time. I no longer have my staff take office time for their personal time.

Cons

I don't have any cons currently. i feel the system is awesome!

July 23, 2019

4.0

Pros

I enjoy just being able to just "punch in and out" with ease. There is no real complications to this. It is very user friendly. All companies should use this format to keep track of payroll time

Cons

At the moment, there aren't any cons to list.

### "IDEAblox Review"

August 7, 2019

5.0

Overall, I liked that I was able to keep track of my time and that both me and my administrator could look at the same thing versus having to rely on someone else to keep track of my time.

Pros

I liked most that it was simple to use and understand. It loaded quickly and allowed me to see how many hours I worked and kept track of the hours I missed.

Cons

Overall have a good experience with it and don't have any cons.

July 30, 2019

Over all for the size of practice it is a great option for keeping hours

Pros

I like that we can access our time cards easily and print them out. It is also nice that we can request hours and time off

Cons

I would like to see some sort of integration where you can see a calendar with other employees time off to schedule appropriately.

### "An honest review "

July 30, 2019

4.0

This is a great product. One of the best on the market in its’ price point.

Pros

I can regulate the access our employees have to their own hours. I like that I can allow them to make changes to their hours with my approval.

Cons

There are times the site goes down. But luckily, the employees can manually enter their hours and I can approve them.

Reason for choosing IDEAblox

Cost and features. Ease of use was another selling point for us.

### "The missing link"

July 23, 2019

5.0

Its great!

Pros

How easy it is for me to let the guys clock in and out on their own. They are in control of their own hours and all I have to do is validate it.

Cons

We get occasional log outs for some reason and then I as the administrator have to log back in on their computer first before they can log in under their account. ( this happens in chrome)

Reason for choosing IDEAblox

competitive pricing (important for small business)
