Owner Construction Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great app for any contractor " May 8, 2025 5.0 Overall I enjoyed working with WorkYard, they are open to criticism and are willing to make changes to improve the apps usability. Pros I really enjoyed how easy it was to get started and the on boarding made it a seamless transition. Cons Lack of push notifications when tasks are assigned to you (only email notifications) and we would like to see notifications appear on our phones when people add to a checklist on a task. Review Source Response from Workyard September 1, 2026 Thanks, Spencer. Nice to know onboarding was smooth for your crew. On your push notification request, we'll pass this to our product team. Appreciate you bringing this up. PP Paula P. Manager Construction Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Workyard makes for easy work." November 19, 2024 5.0 Its been very helpful in streamlining our work. Pros Ease of use, easy to learn, easy to train and implement in the field. Cons I can not personalize the program to fit our needs more. Such as, I could use different status options other than complete or incomplete. Alternatives considered [Procore](https://www.capterra.com/p/56250/Procore/) Reason for choosing Workyard price, time, ease of use, responsiveness of sales team. Review Source CP Cliff P. Electrical Forman Construction Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "It’s not great for the construction industry. " August 5, 2024 1.0 Pros It is decent at finding the correct geofence however, it shows the phone on the other side of town when in a building that doesn’t have good reception. Cons The app tracks even off the clock. It also automatically clocks in when driving by a job site after hours & weekends. It dramatically reduces the battery life on phones from the constant GPS tracking. It doesn’t have a drive time feature or have a great way to add per diem other than using notes. Switched from [Procore](https://www.capterra.com/p/56250/Procore/) The cost of Workyard was significantly lower than ProCore however, I liked the functionality of their app better. Review Source NW Nikki W. Owner Furniture Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Best Decision EVER!!!!" January 17, 2025 5.0 Locations of my employees has been a game changer!!!! Not allowing them to personally change their clock in and out times has also been a plus. Now they have to prove they were on time and where they went and I can change the times. Pros I can modify and amend all times and workers easily from my phone anytime or day Cons I hate paying for employees that I forget delete after they no longer for me because I have to use my laptop to suspend them. need that feature on my phone and can't find it. Review Source Response from Workyard September 1, 2026 Thanks, Nikki. Awesome to hear that it's working out for you. On suspending or removing employees from your phone: that's currently a web-only action. But, that is a fair ask to want it on mobile too. We'll pass this information to the product team as a specific feature request. DC Debbie C. Operations Real Estate Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Happy Campers!" April 9, 2025 5.0 We are extremely happy with the Workyard platform. The trial period allowed us to completely navigate the features we were seeking. The setup was easy to navigate. Even if you aren't tech savvy, you can quickly learn how to use it effectively. Pros We are using the product mostly for mileage reimbursement purposes. The software accurately logs distance traveled and makes the reimbursement process seamless for our organization. Cons When we are using the automatic clock in/out feature, it likes to clock in on the weekends. This is probably something we are not doing correctly! Reason for choosing Workyard The trial period worked seamlessly for us. Review Source Response from Workyard September 1, 2026 Thanks, Debbie. Glad the mileage tracking is making reimbursement straightforward for your team. On weekend clock-ins, that happens when a phone enters the project's geofence while location access is on. Since the geofence itself doesn't know what day it is, it can happen even when off the clock. Our support team can help tighten the project's radius so it doesn't trigger as easily. HH Heather H. Owner and Office Manager Construction Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Not a fit for me, but WOW! Great support! " April 2, 2025 5.0 I signed up for a free trial because my small handyman business is looking for something for scheduling and dispatching. Workyard ended up being more of an internal product rather than something we would use to contact and schedule our clients. Within ten minutes of me posting a question within chat ("Can I integrate my Google calendar?"), someone called and emailed me with an answer. Within 4 hours of signing up for my trial, I had a demo scheduled and completed. \[sensitive content hidden\] on my demo was GREAT. He was really helpful sharing what Workyard does well and also very honest about the fact that it wasn't going to fit my wants and needs. I \*WANTED\* this to be THE software because the team was so great, but at least now I know definitively. Pros SNAPPY customer service and savvy onboarding. Their small team really gets things done. Cons It was more a time-tracking software than a dispatching one. I needed the latter. Review Source Response from Workyard September 1, 2026 Thank you for this honest review, Heather. Although Workyard wasn't the right fit for what you were looking for, I'm glad the support experience stood out. The app really is designed for time tracking, labor costs, and job site activity. ML Michelle L. Director of operations for handyman company Construction Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Small business review of workyard" February 4, 2025 5.0 It’s been great, we have been looking for a system for our small business to use for our employees and tracking their jobs and location and hours and this is perfect for that! Pros How it’s easy to add employees and manage the work and location! Cons That you can’t do it all from phone, some you have to do only online. Review Source Response from Workyard September 1, 2026 Thank you, Michelle. Happy to hear that Workyard's been a great fit for your crew and jobs. For what you can't do from the phone: let the support team know which admin tasks you're hitting a wall on. They can tell you what's already possible from the app and pass the rest to the product team. JW Jennifer W. Office Manager Facilities Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "New User for property maintenance co." March 6, 2025 4.0 have not used it to its full capacity as of yet. Pros The ease of use and being able to maintain my crew and their time in an orderly fashion. Cons Since we are new users, and everything is new, we are getting used to the new app and have not found any cons so far. Review Source Response from Workyard September 1, 2026 Thank you for the review, Jennifer. Glad the crew and time tracking basics are working well. As you use more of the platform, let us know if anything doesn't fit how your team runs. LL Lorena L. Office Assistant Construction Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Every construction company should use it." March 7, 2025 5.0 Great experience. Combining all daily reports and photos on the platform makes our daily work so much easy ate the office. Pros Knowing exactly where your employees are at, get all info about the work the performed on the notes and receive photos thru the app. Weekly reports with hours are also very helpful. Cons So far we are very satisfied with the app. Review Source Response from Workyard September 1, 2026 Thanks, Lorena. Glad having daily reports, photos, and weekly hours in one place is cutting down office work for you. DA Dulce A. Wal Assemblies Accounting Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Feature rating" December 23, 2024 5.0 I love this application fewer mistakes are made Pros I like that it doesn't let you move forward if you don set the correct date Cons I don't like it when you make a mistake and put the lunch wrong don't let me fix all together you have to enter each person's profile to fix the mistake Review Source DA Dana A. Payroll Manager Construction Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Time/Stress Saver" April 23, 2021 5.0 From the start, the team that I worked with was very responsive to all of my questions and concerns. \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] the engineer and I spent quite some time over video conference calls working out the kinks and he worked really hard to make sure that it was what I needed BEFORE even purchasing the software. I am grateful for the amount of time we have saved and the stress of payroll has become so much lighter for us as a company and we can confidently attribute that to what WorkYard has done for us. Pros We transitioned from a time tracking software that was giving us massive headaches with overtime and double time. During the free trial, we ran some tests to make sure that the OT and DOT were calculating properly and even learned a few things about how OT and DOT work. We love the Dashboard to be able to see the costs of payroll for the period and the ability to easily have multiple managers approve time. The potential that they will be able to sync this with our payroll service is also something we look forward to. Cons We are unable to pull reports the way that we want to. We want to be able to pull the cost allocation by the department. Switched from [QuickBooks Time](https://www.capterra.com/p/151722/TSheets/) QB time was not calculating OT and DOT properly and it was a lot of stress, time, and manual work that we had to do each payroll. Review Source Response from Workyard April 26, 2021 Dana, thanks for taking the time to leave your review. Glad to hear that we're relieving some of the stress you had with your previous software provider. Thanks for pointing out the additional reporting requirements. Good news is that we'll be adding that in to a future release. We also continue to add new payroll integrations. We'll keep you posted on updates to both of the above. LH Lora H. Controller Transportation/Trucking/Railroad Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Perfect for payroll and managers" May 8, 2023 5.0 We have loved working with Workyard. They have made our experience extremely seamless. Pros I love Workyard for the gps tracking, time tracking and payroll import. It makes my life so much easier Cons The only thing I don’t like about it is in some remote rural areas it doesn’t work but it does work 99% of the time. Alternatives considered [ADP TotalSource](https://www.capterra.com/p/113109/ADP-TotalSource/) Reason for choosing Workyard We liked the product support and pricing better Review Source BM Brian M.

Again, simple to use and user friendly Pros Simple to use. Helpful for the company and payroll Cons Nothing I like everything. It is user friendly and consistent Review Source JF Jimmy F. Project Director Construction Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "From the field " October 22, 2024 5.0 We’ve been on workyard for roughly 5 months now definitely a game changer on time, saving and cost coding Pros Simple design and user friendly Accurate to the minute Cons GPS lag On the map option Would like the ability to utilize the app for a viewing basis, as opposed to just timekeeping and having to pay for an additional person to have an app Alternatives considered [Dropbox](https://www.capterra.com/p/143068/Dropbox-Business/) Reason for choosing Workyard Easy use and integration and cost savings Review Source TT Theresa T.

Review Source MB Mark B. Owner Construction Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Due West Construction Work yard review" April 27, 2024 5.0 The team from work yard is very helpful and always available to assist. Pros The ease of set up and use on the daily for our employees. The time saving for our administration team. Cons Little expensive but the time we are saving is off setting the cost. Reason for choosing Workyard Ease of set up and use. I did shop around a bit, but this seemed to fit our needs. Review Source DB Desirea B. Owner Construction Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Best app for my company" February 27, 2024 5.0 Workyard has exceeded my expectations in every way! I have been so busy that I haven't spent enough time doing little things in it that I want to do but I am blown away at how simple it was to implement this into our company and set up the guys saving time and energy chasing down receipts, photos of the jobs, daily updates on job statuses, and timesheets. It is a timesaver and blessing! Pros Images are uploaded to each job so I can see the work for each job, expenses and notes on each job as well. If we don't finish a job then the guys note where they left off and there is open communication between everyone. Cons Notifications come up on my phone app but when you open it there is nothing to tell you what you are being notified about. Reason for choosing Workyard The GPS tracking was more detailed at Workyard and the presentation that \[sensitive content hidden\]. at Workyard gave was more competent than the other people gave me. Review Source EB Embri B. General Manager Construction Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "JCAT General Contractors and Maintenance of Atlanta" October 4, 2023 5.0 Great experience so far! Pros How easy it is to navigate website and the customer service is the best! Cons When the site freezes and I can't enter job numbers. Also navigating past jobs. It'll be better if we can see jobs for the whole month instead of having to go to that day. Review Source MT Michelle T. Office Manager Construction Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Workyard " August 4, 2023 5.0 Overall our experience has been good. We have received quick response and support every time we have reached out. We are still new to Workyard and still have much to learn about. Pros Workyard reminds employees to clock in and out and this has given our company more accurate time cards. The GPS feature has allowed us to better allocate time and costs to specific projects. Our company is moving throughout the day to many different job sites. The GPS feature helps us see if employee went on a job site that they employee may have forgotten to report. Cons When clocking in and out you have to assign your time to a project but can only charge to 1 cost code which for us means they employee has to make several entries to a lot there time when on the same job but performing different cost codes. Review Source CM Charlotte M. bookkeeper Construction Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great for Construction Workers" September 20, 2021 5.0 Excellent Pros Time keeping for each individual worker and reports easy to pull for payroll. Cons Changing time for an employee if they forget to log in. Not really sure - the supervisor uses this system more. Reason for choosing Workyard Works easy with everyone's phone Review Source Response from Workyard September 21, 2021 Charlotte, thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. Glad to hear that your team feels like it's easy to use on their phones and that you can get the reports you need. Someone from our support team is going to reach out to you about your concern regarding editing employee time if they forget to clock in. For now, I wanted to share that we send them reminders and provide geofence detection but we also know that there will still be times when your team simply forgets. That's why we make it easy to quickly edit a time card or even manually add one from either the mobile phone app or the desktop. SK Slava K.

Cons The gps location for clocking in and out can mess up and not allow crew members to clock in and out. Review Source KD Karrie D.

Workyard is always looking for ways to improve and make their products better. Cons GPS was not reliable. It didn't work all the time.
