Arcoro HR vs. BerniePortal

For my industry, ExakTime is incredible. The geo fencing, and clock-in locations and job types works incredibly well. I am likely to recommend because I have and I do recommend it constantly to others in my industry. I would say the only reason more people are not trying is it, is because they are of an older generation and using a virtual program can be daunting.

BerniePortal is well suited to benefits elections and as a resource for general plan documentation. During the enrollment period, it has helpful features to allow you to compare plans against your current one and calculate the costs. The portal also provides an itemized summary of your election costs and the ability to change beneficiaries. All of this is in a site that, while sparse, is easy to navigate and understand. However, outside of the enrollment cycle, BerniePortal's uses are fairly limited - at least within the scope of employee benefits.

• It would be a nice feature if employees could add photos of their progress on jobsites
• The GPS could be a bit more exact for tracking employees
• The reports page online is not the most user friendly page. It seems dated.

Incentivized

• It needs little improvement in the leave management system. Employees need to add manually in order to request a leave.
• It’s interface is bit tricky.
• Attendance system is perfect but need some changes in its interface.

I don't have any major problems with Exaktime so I do not see a reason to switch to something else. All the bugs and learning curves have been worked out so move to another company will take too much time of which we do not have. I have become an Exaktime expert and don't trust another software that guarantees geofencing timekeeping.

ExakTime is very intuitive and easy to use in some cases. From an ExakTime Mobile perspective, it is very simple and easy to use. The Clock In/Clock Out screen is intuitive and easy to learn. Similarly, the ExakTime Connect side is very smooth and simple for Time Card Detail viewing and Report usage, but it is sadly lacking in User Experience in Scheduling.

I have had problems outside of normal business hours and I get a return phone call from them pretty quickly. There has only been I think 1 instance that I waited for too long to be able to fix my situation.

Gave a notice to all
employees to come to work 15 min early on the day planned to implement the
program. I had Spanish and English signs
on how to down load the program and log in I showed them ALL how to log in and
out and explained that they are responsible for reporting accurate time. I had them all sign a policy that lunch
breaks were mandatory for all employees
at least 30 min per day. This ensures
safety on the roofs. We had a few people
who did not have passwords to the app store and we had a few problems with
android phones but most of them were on their way quickly. Most not happy about the change but I hope
they see the benefit of it now.

This is the first product like this that we've used. We've been using ExakTime for several years now, and I can't imagine going back to manual entry! I also wouldn't think there's any comparable product on the market that allows as much customization or would be as user friendly as ExakTime

I would always prefer it over BambooHR because of its versatility. It has a lot more features than BambooHR. For example, for salary calculation, [we] have used another tool for salary along with BambooHR. But now with BerniePortal, you can [do] all the process in it. So it means you can add 2 functions [at] the price of one and a lot cheaper.
