“Although the GPS tracking allows for tracking employees during work shifts, the system has many glitches and inconsistencies such as showing someone leave the country and return within an hour. Or reflecting their position as in the middle of the woods or a nearby lake.“

### "Best App to save Time & maximise profits!!!!"

January 13, 2023

5.0

First thing first-Cost, especially when companies allocate budgets for software. This is very affordable and more advanced that the regular apps/machines as the info generated is realistic & accurate especially with the GPS tool & "Geo-Fencing" abilities.

Pros

First of all, the set up and training was super easy!!! I love that it can be used via both web & cell phones. This app tracks employees far beyond time-in and time-out. It also allows you to follow the total hours taken when completing tasks/projects with no hassle. The jobs, tasks and employees were all easily added and the reports are also the best and precise on hours for projects and employees. I am over the top satisfied that we have switched to ClockShark!!!

Cons

So far, ClockShark actually meets our requirements at our company but if I had to pin point any additional wants, I would like further accounting systems to be linked to this one to create more expansive reports. Other than that, this is great for any company!!!

[Microsoft Excel](https://www.capterra.com/p/176574/Excel/)

My company is finally able to obtain detailed manpower hours and job cost report for each separate job. There is more accuracy of data in a shorter period of time thus maximizing overall profits! The workers are more efficient and punctuality and regularity has been taken more seriously due to the "Geo-fencing" features. Our employees are thrilled that that they get lunch break reminders!! Its the "ease of mind" feeling you get as an employer when dealing with lots of manpower at different projects & contracts.

### "Clockshark Positive Review"

February 21, 2025

5.0

Overall, would recommend, but it is borderline too expensive.

Pros

Easy to use, and easy for my employees to use.

Cons

I little clunky, not as polished as I would have liked, and not as many features.

### "Terrible!"

February 8, 2021

1.0

This application just did not work for us. It might work for a small service industry such as an HVAC or Plumbing company that doesn't do Prevailing Wage rates, but even then, the GPS is not reliable. We ran as fast as we could away from this application when our 1 year contract was up.

Pros

The only good thing about the application is the scheduling section. We liked the drag and drop feature for either the employee or the job. Adding additional shifts and/or employees to a job was very easy as well.

Cons

There are so many things we did not like about this application. 1. GPS IS UNRELIABLE! I could sit right at my desk, clock in, and it would show me clocking in 3 miles away. I have a new phone with great Verizon service. The GPS should have been accurate. Unfortunately, this happened to at least one or more employees on a daily basis. 2. No way to track Prevailing Wage. There is no way to set a prevailing wage rate for a job. I would have to manually go into the weekly time report and change and re-add the wages for those jobs. 3. REPORTS - The reports are AWFUL! No way to customize them other than the basic per job or per employee, and date. So many of them were useless, and none of them are accurate for us because of the fluctuation in prevailing wage rates. 4.0 CUSTOMER SERVICE was almost NON-EXSISTANT! After several months of asking for help with the GPS and Reports, we pretty much was ignored because they couldn't help us. I was asked repeatedly to rate them, and kept sending messages about the issues, but didn't get any reply. It took 6 months to get an automated e-mail reply for one of our inquiries.

Hi Toni, thanks for your feedback and sorry to hear that ClockShark was not a good fit for your company. I've reviewed your account and the history of communications with the support team and your account rep. It seems that there were indeed some features that were particularly important to your company, that we did not have. I understand why this would be frustrating. As the CEO here, I'd like to go on the record though to state that as far as I can tell, nobody on our team failed to reply to you at any point and I do find extensive conversation history where our team worked closely with you to do our best to explain how things work, what the possibilities are, and confirm that we'd pass along your feature requests for consideration by the product team for possible future implementation. We wish we could build every feature every customer wants, we truly do. Unfortunately it's not possible. Regardless, I apologize for anything we did to cause you to feel bad about the experience.

### "4 years with Clockshark, Best timeclock solution out there."

January 3, 2025

5.0

I've been using Clockshark for almost 4 years every day and it's been easy to set-up, easy to use and has become an integral part of our SOP. I've shopped around for other options, couldn't find one that could compete for the price. Heck, our primary CRM even offers a time clock feature included with our plan but we prefer to pay additional to use Clockshark.

Pros

It's easy for my guys to clock in and out. Reminds them when they get to the job sites (if I remember to add the GeoFence, see my Cons section for my gripe with that), Sends them a notification every morning reminding them to clock in (it's been a hassle to get some of them to remember..).

Cons

The geofence cannot be enabled by default when adding a new job. I use Zapier to create my jobs in Clockshark and there's no way to automatically enable the geofence. That's my only qualm with Clockshark to date and we've been using them for nearing 4 years.

November 21, 2022

You want to save time and accomplish alot of works and manage your company successfully from A to Z from following up on employessand reports and payroll and over time and work location and working hours then you need clock shark .

Pros

It made me identity the experienced and active workers that accomplish alot of work in ashort time by tracking time and business and there fore you can achieve alot of profit. It made work easier than before when making reports and payrolland additional working hours and thus the owner of any company can manage at successfully

Cons

It needs educational videos that show how to use the existing features with all the skilland experience of any novice company owner if the person dose not know how to use the application he will not achieve full benefit from it . There is no arabic version as there are many arab business owners who can not use english spplication

June 8, 2023

5.0

Excellent customer service and the product runs seamlessly the majority of the time.

Pros

The time management is what we like most about ClockShark and the GPS Track. Excellent way to manage employees at multiple locations.

Cons

The PTO feature is good but a bit hard to modify but it does an excellent job banking PTO earned if you live in a State that legislates PTO programs.

### "Almost perfect for a simple all in one solution"

December 8, 2021

4.0

Pros

Easy to use. Clean and simple user interface. Reliable. Have not experienced server downtown whereas we have often with other apps. Employee schedule is very useful especially with being able to see the roster in the Y-axis and the week's days in the X-axis. Customer support is very helpful and fast at responding. Customer support really makes this company/software stand out.

Cons

Better project management features. For example, gantt charts, to-do lists, and template building. Managing job sites is also very difficult past a couple dozen. It would be amazing to bulk edit e.g. select multiple job sites and edit details such as Client information or group them together under a category/group/folder.

### "Take the leap...."

December 28, 2021

5.0

Support is top notch and you can always get a human being. We left QuickBooks time due to bugs and not being able to get to someone when we needed them. This was a little more than what they charged but so worth it. It has been a bit of a learning curve but the team at ClockShark was always there to help me through it. You won't be disappointed. This is great software and a great team behind it.

Pros

Ease of use. Availability: web or mobile. Fantastic support team.

Cons

No cons....we would like the ability to put holidays in the time off section but it's not a dealbreaker in the least.

### "Fantastic Application!"

May 14, 2020

5.0

We moved from a complicated spreadsheet and paper timesheets to this system and it has been a fantastic overhaul. We are saving time and coordination efforts already just by using the clock in / out feature. Here this week we will be moving forward with the scheduling feature as well.

Pros

The software is very easy to use. The tutorial for mobile use is great and all of our employees have been able to adjust very easily. The scheduling aspect is top tier (we did a LOT of research on you and your competitors.)

Cons

It would be great if there was a way for each employee to flag time issues that wasn't just a note, like a push notification. Also, we would love it if you had a mass messaging option (but I've heard you are working on it!)

The ease of the mobile clocking-in and out.

### "Great product"

July 7, 2020

5.0

Overall experience has been great. Great price point, great customer service. They are always evolving and that is what keeps us here. They are willing to make adjustments based on the ever change environment and needs of their customers.

Pros

Customer service is beyond fantastic! The team really cares about the feedback and suggestions they receive and do their best to implement as much as they can. The simplicity to the user is great as we have technicians that need things to be quick and simple. Reports have come along way in the past year. They give a lot of information and you are able to customize them a bit more now. Implementation is quick and easy. Works amazingly well with QuickBooks and other similar software.

Cons

There are some changes I would make personally to fit our needs. There isn't any real cons with Clockshark honestly. It does what we need it to do and the things it doesn't are simply requests we'd like to see to fit us better as a company.

So far we have had a good experience switching to clock shark for our time tracking needs and it has been very smooth.

### "Never Going Back to Paper!"

September 29, 2021

4.0

This product is so simple to use, all of our employees caught on in no time at all! The support staff are amazing - quick responses and always so eager to help. Having this software has not only increased the accuracy of our payroll and job cost reporting it has also added a whole new level of verifiability to our data. Not to mention that it is one of the most affordable apps on the market. DEFINITELY best value for your dollar.

Pros

The most important feature of ClockShark is how simple it is to use. We were very hesitant to transition from bi-weekly paper timesheets to a real time, time tracking app for fear of employee push back. That being said the transition has been seamless due to how easy the app makes using it!

Cons

There are some limited functionalities (ie. alerts/notifications are not as customizable as I would like). That being said the development team are eager to hear product suggestions and are constantly working on developing and improving the software.

### "Good for 1 job per day work sites, user friendly"

February 16, 2022

1.0

User friendly for many things especially adding new jobs to the clock, but as I mentioned before, only good for one job per day shops. And, the base cost per month is put this at a rate much higher than similar programs, especially for small shops.

Pros

Easy to add jobs to the time clock. Job roster is easy to look over with "Hours worked" and "Hours Budgeted" readily available, no having running reports to bill customers.

Cons

Cannot edit employees while they are clocked in the system. Other programs will allow me to fix errors during the day, such as clocked into the wrong job in the morning or missed clocking in when they started working. Editing during the day while the error is fresh allows me to get a head start on payroll and being sure employees are paid for the work they do and that time is billed to the proper job. Base monthly costs put this program at a higher monthly cost than similar programs.

Reason for choosing ClockShark

Partner signed up for clock shark without my input. Probably switching back.

### "Better time and job tracking"

April 6, 2021

5.0

We are now tracking time far more reliably and are able to keep up with what stages jobs are at which means we can invoice out much faster. Staff are able to add notes to the jobs as they go so work descriptions are far more comprehensive.

Pros

The mobile access is fantastic for staff to keep track of their times and switching between jobs is easy for them. Easy for staff to add photos and notes to each job. Staff can use voice to text to enter notes. ClockShark is helping us to bill out hours much more reliably which manes less missed billable hours for us and and accountability for our customers.

Cons

I have to produce a report to see the notes for a job. Would be good if this info was displayed when you clicked on the job or a "view job report" button rather than having to go through the menus at the top of the page.

Reason for choosing ClockShark

Simple but functional user interface. Clock out questions for regulatory reporting.

### "Clock Shark - Great Functionality and Awesome Customer Support"

May 23, 2022

4.0

It has been GREAT. A sales rep communicated with me even though I was doing my research over the Christmas holidays. They have been a great support from the day we signed on.

Pros

Clock Shark's best feature is the staff. They have fast response times. They're people are always courteous, helpful, supportive, and pro-active. During the 5 months we have been using the program, someone from their staff will reach out through IM or email just to check in. I also love the "chat" feature to get quick responses without having to be on hold waiting to speak to someone. They have also asked for feedback on the product specifically around features we would like to see added. Unfortunately, I haven't had the time to give that feedback.

Cons

Reports - I would like to have to option to customize fields in certain reports such as time tracking. Geolocation - Although I don't see it as often, I still see on occasion where a staff member's location wasn't logged. If it is because they turned off their location, I want to either be notified or have them logged out. It doesn't always happen. Timesheet entries (real time) - I would like to be able to enter a time sheet and check it as still working so the employee can then go in and clock out for lunch and end of day. It would help eliminate a follow up to get the time activity for the whole day.

Reason for choosing ClockShark

The features they offered and most importantly, their staff.

### "CLOCK SHARK was the answer to my time-keeping and scheduling needs"

July 6, 2022

5.0

My overall experience w/ Clock Shark has been excellent. I tried several different time-keeping systems before I was told about Clock Shark. Each product I tried didn't quite fit my needs. There was always something missing or wasn't working for what I needed. Clock Shark does it all from being able to keep time, create as many job cards as you want, customize your own JobFlow and tasks, post comments and pictures and attachments on individual job cards w/ no limits! I've been using Clock Shark for about 2 months now, and I have probably close to 300 job cards created, and double that of pictures! This saves memory on my laptop from holding so many saved pictures. I just keep them on Clock Shark now. I know if I ever need to pull up a picture or pull up an old job, all the info and pics I need are there in Clock Shark in my job cards list! Clock Shark also has the fastest response time to questions by their customer support team. They really want to help you learn how to use Clock Shark and they have sent me custom help videos on how to do something if I ask. Their response time is un-matched.

Pros

Clock Shark does everything you need to schedule and manage multiple projects. I run a graphic installation business, and we can be at as many as 50 different locations in one week, or just a few locations the next. Doesn't matter, Clock Shark keeps every job organized. The JobFlow system helps keep jobs organized by which stage they are in, and you can filter through the jobs based on stages, customized to your liking and what makes sense for your business!

Cons

Speaking of being able to filter through jobs based on stages, I'd say my least favorite thing is that when you do filter the jobs based on stage or whatever filter you want to use, the filter does not hold as you toggle between jobs. What I mean is, every time you filter your job cards, and you select a job, when you go "Back" into your full job card list, the filter completely resets and you have to reset your filters all over again. I think this is something important that should be addressed to save time and frustration from having to filter and re-filter the list over and over. The filters should hold no matter where in Clock Shark you navigate to. If I go to the schedule and back to jobs, the filters you set before should still remain and not refresh until you're ready to change them, just like in an excel spreadsheet.

Reason for choosing ClockShark

I wasn't able to upload pictures or attachments to job cards w/ ChronoTek, and it wasn't as "clean" of a look and layout. There seemed to be more things that I didn't know how to use or would never use than there were features I would use. Also, tracking Travel Time was not as easy as w/ Clock Shark. W/ ChronoTek, I would have to go through each route and approve it. I don't have time to look through dozens of routes on a daily basis and approve them one-by-one. W/ Clock Shark, I create a job card for Travel Time, and employees clock into the Travel Time card between job sites. It's much easier, and I can see a fluid timeline as I scan through their time sheets, and gaps are easily detected this way. I can see the full picture of their day by scrolling through their time sheets.

### "Overview"

June 8, 2023

4.0

CS is a good system aside from the above comments. It has tools that other online/mobile timekeeping systems do not. At the same time, the GPS issues do not provide a trustworthy method of tracking of employees during work shifts. Rather hard to hold them accountable for certain situations when the system itself has errors and glitches.

Pros

The ability to track and schedule paid time off is a plus for this system. Most others in this arena have not implemented or developed this within their systems. Also the ability to track employees during their work shifts.

Cons

Although the GPS tracking allows for tracking employees during work shifts, the system has many glitches and inconsistencies such as showing someone leave the country and return within an hour. Or reflecting their position as in the middle of the woods or a nearby lake. In the area of "Time Off Requests", the filtering system used on the dashboard and timesheet screens should be implemented to avoid having to go through pages of prior authorized requests that include former employees that have been deactivated.

Hi, Carla! Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. The GPS issues you're describing are often due to an issue within the device being used. Our customer support team can help resolve that. Please contact them at hello@clockshark.com. Additionally, we do offer several filter options in order to better sort through the Time Off Requests. Our customer support team can help with this too!

### "Clockshark used for Carpentry staff"

February 14, 2023

4.0

Our field employees are able to clock in and out of jobs more accurately using this software and it only takes a minute or two to update when they change jobs during the day.

Pros

The software is very easy to navigate from an administrative aspect. It is also very easy to use for the employees in the field and the mobile app is also very user friendly. The GPS tracking feature is useful to track movements for the day if there is a question on a specific time entry

Cons

There really isn't anything I dislike . . . I don't use all the features of the software, only because it serves our need.

Reason for choosing ClockShark

Clockshark has the geofencing feature that we found very helpful

### "Not bad, could be better"

September 10, 2020

4.0

We're just discovering the possibilities the software has to offer. Using it for merely one month just to have some control on our window fitters whereabouts and labour hours. We're now trying to see if we can use the reports feature to help us make lists with the notes (including pictures) about various issues encountered on sites or job completion reports (also with pictures included) - we wouldn't like to use a different software for this. We used one in the past but it didn't have the timesheet feature. Hope we can use the Shark for both operations.

Pros

Can see where our window fitters are working during the play day.

Cons

The tracking (play button) is randomly active for random workers, so it is hard to approve some timesheets because they might clock in or out in different places than the actual building site where they are supposed to do it. So they can cheat on working hours and get away with it. :P

Reason for choosing ClockShark

One of our site managers dug up online for a time tracking app and found this one after a few failed attempts. Guess it was purely by chance and decided to give it a go. Btw, one week trial period is not enough to clearly see if the system suits your needs. We're having roughly one month now since we're using it and don't know yet what else we can use it for apart from tracking locations and timings for our window fitters.

Hi Andrei! I appreciate the thorough and positive review! Happy to hear you're able to track your guys on the field better now. For the GPSTrak icon-- I would definately reach out to the Support team! This is typically a very simple settings fix. You can chat in, email or give them a call at 1-800-828-0689. The two week trial tends to be enough time for most of our customers, however if you think you need more time when in your trial, we can connect you to your onboarding specialist and they can demo the product based off your companies needs to show you the features you might find most useful. We also don't mind extending the trial in special cases :) Feel free to reach us anytime-- we're here to help!
