### "Great features, easy to use, and great customer service"

February 27, 2024

5.0

Overall it's been a great experience! Easy to use, easy to roll out, easy to set up logins, and, when we've ever needed help we've received quick responses from support. \[sensitvie content hidden\] is someone who has helped in the past and she was great!

Pros

The PTO Tracking feature. Employee directory. Org chart function

Cons

I can't think of anything that I don't like.

### "Making "taking time off" even easier!"

January 16, 2020

5.0

I have used Built for Teams for last two years for myself and my team. I am extremely happy with its functionality and ease of use.

Pros

The simplicity of the software is the best aspect. Taking time off and recording time away from work should not be complicated. Built for Teams makes it easier and hassle-free.

Cons

The only con that I would mention will be the "Time Approval" functionality in the Mobile App. It needs to be more user-friendly Everything else is very streamlined and user-friendly.

Alternatives considered

Rachel thank you so much for your review! It's great to hear you love the convenience of being able to approve time off right from your email on the go! Built for Teams does offer Single Sign On (SSO) with Google, Outlook and Slack. We can certainly help you get that setup! Thank you for being a valued customer and for your review!

### "It's exactly what we needed! "

March 22, 2019

5.0

As the administrator for PTO and Payroll, this software has really made my life easier. It's so easy to track everyone's PTO - and to have multiple policies! We had to grandfather a few employees on the older PTO plan when the company moved to accrual, and it was extremely easy to do so. The employees are able to visually see when they've taken off in the past, in case they couldn't remember. All in all, very happy!

Pros

I liked that the software itself was very easy to learn for the administrator and user side. There are several reporting functionalities as well. If there was anything I had a question about, or if there was anything additionally needed from the software, the support team was always very willing to help accomplish those tasks!

Cons

It only recorded in half hour increments. I've had a few employees inquire about 15 minute increments, but this isn't a huge problem.

### "A great PTO platform"

March 15, 2023

5.0

One of my best business investments was this one. It completes the task and is economical. I adore how people can check their own accounts, which reduces calls and laborious tracking.

Pros

I loved how simple it was for both administrators and users to learn the software itself. Many reporting features are available as well. The support staff was always more than happy to help me with any questions I had or any additional requirements I had for the software.

Cons

The Time Approval feature of the mobile app is the only drawback I can think of. It should be easier to use. The rest of it is quite user-friendly and well-organized.

### "BFT Review"

September 25, 2018

4.0

I enjoy the software for the most part but I wish these changes would be made.

Pros

The easy functionality for our employees. They are able to log-in and request time off/put in for sick time, etc. It is helpful because it isn't something I have to manually enter anymore.

Cons

I dislike the request process. I would prefer that it would allow you to go down to the minute so it's easier tracked. I would also prefer it had the option to mark for tardiness. I use the unpaid tab for that but you have to modify the balance every time. I also dislike that you cannot modify something once it's put in/date passed. I shouldn't have to e-mail for adjustments - I should be able to change them as I'm the admin.

September 26, 2018

Thanks for the feedback, Kayla! First, I have great news that we just added support for by-the-minute requests. We'll reach out to you to show you how to enable that new setting! Second, we're also working on improving the process for modifying historical data. We should have some updates in the near future that will help make that process easier. Thanks for being our customer!

### "Excellent PTO Tracking for Mid-Size Business"

December 20, 2017

5.0

Pros

Excellent value. It is very easy to use. Intuitive interface. PTO tracking allows full customization of policies and multiple policies based on length of service or employee classification. Has enough capabilities to grow with our organization.

Cons

Wish it had employee time tracking. Additionally, I wish it were easier to move between active and former employees. It would make sense to have a drop down with employee status rather than a multi-step filter.

December 21, 2017

Jeffrey, thank you for the great feedback. Good news that we are close to releasing a time tracking feature! And we'll work on making it easier to move between active and former employees. Great suggestions!

December 20, 2017

4.0

Pros

Ease of use and features. Built for teams has been easy to work with. They also have great customer support in providing us with both direction and implementation assistance.

Cons

Lack of API or integration has been a challenge to allow integration with some of the leading ERP systems that we support.

### "Built for Teams Limited"

October 31, 2019

3.0

The software is adequate but noting special and it's lack of integration with other HR functions lessen it's value.

Pros

It was great for managing and reviewing PTO time and it had a clean and sleek look. It did what it needed to do

Cons

It's other features at least in my company were very limited and it was frustrating to have to log into a separate system for different HR purposes.

Response from Built For Teams

November 5, 2019

Tim, thanks for this candid review. Although we're bummed to read that you weren't 100% happy with our product, we do appreciate you being willing to share your feedback. It sounds like your organization wasn't taking full advantage of all of our HR features, which is unfortunate. We can understand that having to login to different systems for different things makes extra work for you, so perhaps utilizing the rest of our features could have helped alleviate that. We've worked hard to make an integrated HR system that covers a broad range of HR needs, but at some point if a company only chooses to use a small portion of our system, it's tough to avoid the "separate systems" problem that you've identified. Thank you again for your review!

### "Useful and Affordable"

October 23, 2023

5.0

This program is excellent for our small company as we don't have a budget that allows for paying our HR vendor to track PTO. It's super easy to use, easy to make corrections or adjustments to, and we never have complaints from staff on it.

Pros

This program is easy to use. We have a wide range of technical skill on our team and even the less talented staff find this easy to learn and use.

Cons

One feature that would be helpful is to be able to make requests into the next year and pull the PTO from the correct bucket. We have carry-over time (from the previous year) that expires in the current year, and then the current year time that will roll over into the carry-over bucket, and should be used first. So if someone wants to take time off in January of next year, we have to wait until January to request it. Also not sure if this program automatically clears out carry-over that expires and replaces it with current year time that is left over.

Reason for choosing Built

Ease of use and affordability

Hi Loni! Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review. I'm so glad you enjoy the fact that everyone in your company has easy access to Built. There are also options to limit what everyone can see inside Built so that not everyone can see the time off being taken company-wide. If you would like to learn more about how to implement these restrictions, please reach out to us at support@builtapp.com. Thanks!

### "Easy To Use And Track Time Off"

March 6, 2024

5.0

It does not take an IT degree to add employees, maintain, or approve time off. The reminders are great with on-click approvals. My employees find it very easy to request time off.

Pros

Setting up new employees is very easy. Adjustments to accruals, adding time off, and reviewing available hours is not complicated but still comprehensive.

Cons

The dropdowns could use a bit of a rewrite.

Hi, Karen! Thank you so much for leaving us a review! I'm so glad the system has been comprehensive but has maintained easy use for your employees!

Any additional feedback on how to improve our customers' experience is much appreciated.

### "Easy to use!"

February 28, 2024

5.0

Overall, we love Built for Teams, it's easy for everyone to use whether they are employees or managers.

Pros

We love Built For Teams, it helps us track our team's personal information and salaries. We are easily able to share payroll stubs and track PTO with setup alerts for all applicable managers.

Cons

We have unlimited PTO but still need people to submit for requests when taking off. We have not quite figured out how to have unlimited PTO without just updating the numbers constantly.

March 1, 2024

Hi Laura! Thanks so much for taking the time to leave us a review! We are so glad you've enjoyed Built so much. I would like to point out that we do have an Unlimited PTO policy type that may be much more beneficial for you in automatically tracking the number of hours taken. This can be submitted without the need for manager approval if desired. If you would like additional information on setting this up for your organization, please reach out to us at support@builtapp.com. Thanks!

### "Built for Teams Review"

December 13, 2019

5.0

Managing PTO is so much simpler now as opposed to when we managed it with a spreadsheet and the employees love it.

Pros

Very easy to train employees on how to use the portal. The program is pretty intuitive, and it has streamlined our process for tracking PTO. Employees can log in at any time to see their current PTO balances, which eliminates employees asking how much PTO they have remaining. We use three different PTO pots (PTO, Optional Holidays & Work Remote) and Built for Teams makes it a breeze to manage. the reporting is pretty robust as well allowing me to generate reports for any date range and include all or select employees.

Cons

Editing past PTO can be a challenge, currently, we have to make an adjusting entry if an employee's plans change and they don't use the time they requested. I know they were working on a way to make these corrections, so it's possible that edits can be made now. the only other item I would consider a bit of a con is there's no phone support. Support is done through chat - sometimes it's very quick but other times not so much.

Response from Built For Teams

December 19, 2019

Bob, we really appreciate your detailed review and candid feedback. It's great to hear how Built for Teams has streamlined your processes and that your employees are loving it! If we are able to help make managing PTO "a breeze" as you put it, that makes us so happy to hear! In regards to our chat support, when a support request comes in, our entire team is able to offer input allowing everyone's expertise to be utilized to get answers and resolutions to your questions or issues faster than calling in and waiting on hold for who knows how long. This method allows us to help more people and serve them better. Thanks again for your great feedback and for being a Built for Teams customer!

### "Great Customer Service"

September 14, 2018

4.0

You guys have done or worked with me to figure out the best solutions to my problem. I wish the software was more personalized or had the options to personalize more but you listen to your customers and I appreciate that.

Pros

Its very simple and easy to use. Customer service is great and they always respond in a timely manner

Cons

I'm not able to personalize per role. Like all level two managers see this, level one this, level three this. I would like to be able to personalize the calendar more as far as black out dates vs days we cant have any techs off but can still have office roles off. We are a body shop and only have fill ins for specific roles. I wish when I changed someones job title it automatically changed them to the group they are in. For example: If we have a DA Tech that moves to a team. I can select that he is moving to Reassembly Jr and the group i made would update his hrs to 10 hrs PTO time when requested, it would remove him from the DA Tech group he was in and add him to the Reassembly group, etc. It would make it a lot easier to sync everything to one.

### "Good fit for our web agency"

March 30, 2024

5.0

Pros

The PTO portion has worked really well for our company. Before, one of our programmers had built our own internal system, it had bugs, became outdated and no longer helpful. Then, we were introduced to Built for Teams and it's worked great for years. If we've ever had an issue, the customer service has been quick to respond and help us resolve our question or situation.

Cons

It probably has some features we don't utilize.

Reason for choosing Built

It was recommended by a friend who was also happy

Overall excellent system and we really love the org chart feature.

### "Built for Teams makes office scheduling a breeze"

March 11, 2020

4.0

Pros

Very easy to see when someone in the office is already scheduled off and is also very easy to schedule time off

Cons

There are limits. Like if you need to leave for the day at 3:15, you have to select either 3 or 3:30. Also we work 7 1/2 hour days so if I schedule off 1/2 a day, it doesn't always calculate the right amount of time out.

Review Source

Response from Built For Teams

March 30, 2020

Michelle, thank you for you feedback and review! We obviously love hearing that Built for Teams is making scheduling time off a breeze! In reference to your time increment feedback, Built for Teams actually has ability to allow for time off request in 1 min, 15 min, 30 min, and half day increments. Each company gets to configure this setting. If your half day requests aren't calculating correctly, the value of each day on your schedules may need be adjusted which is something your company admin can do. Our support team would be happy to assist in configuring any of these settings. Thank you for being a Built for Teams customer and for leaving a review!

November 11, 2020

5.0

Built for Teams has been a huge time saver. What use to take a few hours a month maintaining a spreadsheet has been cutdown to less than 15 minutes approving time off requests.

Pros

This tool is very easy to setup and maintain. Employees are able to track their PTO balance. Before Built for Teams we were using a spreadsheet to track employee PTO balances.

Cons

I would like to see them add a few more reports and make report generation a little easier.

Reason for choosing Built

Cost, easy of use and customer service were all factors that lead us to choose Built for Teams.
