    We have recommended to at least two other colleagues. It helps to prevent dishonest time keeping. Manual timekeeping by a supervisor seems to create a lot of room for errors including forgetfulness of who showed up and when. It's nice to be able to track when each employee is working or how many people are on each worksite.

    We took the trial of 3 HR software before going with BizMerlinHR. We wanted to have a comprehensive HR solution to cover our Paperless employee records, employee onboarding, PTO, Timesheets and Employee Performance Management. We were not looking for an Applicant Tracking system and Retention management module, but when we saw the functionality and easy use we were completely sold to those modules as well. It was like add-on but the price of everything was more economical than the other software that we were reviewing

    Pros
    Arcoro
    • Employee logs in and answers health-related questions before beginning work. They remotely provide their own timesheet information, adjustable by the administrator where needed.
    • Location at time of login is readily available. Distance from jobsite can be determined at any login.
    • Time for lunch is automatically deducted from work hours, logged by type of work interrupted, and easily adjustable by the employer if necessary.
    • Reports by employees of time spent on any type of work during the work day and work week are readily available. Work by job name is also available.

    Cons
    Arcoro
    • 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.

    • Wall of fame or the feedback given to the users cannot be controlled. The users cannot choose or control who can view their wall of fame.
    • The dashboard is customizable at organization and geography level but cannot be customized at the individual level.
    • The filter on archived goals does not work properly using text search.

    It is easer to keep someing going then change things out. Our employees have taken 6 months to learn this one, I do not want to reinvent the wheel. Just this week I have seen inprovment as they now know they do not get paid if they do not clock in and back out every day.

    Usability
    Arcoro
    It's easy for anyone tech savvy. It is kind of impossible to make anything even more user-friendly than it already is. The app itself has zero issues for all my staff. The admin side of things takes a bit more knowing and learning.

    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.

    Implementation Rating
    Arcoro
    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.

    We still use Sage, and ExakTime is compatible with it, which is why we went with ExakTime. So technically we use both at this time. ExakTime is a great pairing with Sage since Sage does not have any applications that let employees clock in and out. So we use ExakTime for that and then transfer the information to Sage for the reporting and issuing of deposits/checks, etc.

It was like add-on but the price of everything was more economical than the other software that we were reviewing. Also, they really mean when they say "No setup fees" - because they helped us move all of our legacy data into the new system at no extra charge and helped us integrate with QuickBooks online. They definitely provide the best value of money when comparing the same set of features.
    We have been using BizMerlinHR since 2018, and both our HR managers and users are very happy.

    I think it is priced a little high, but no time to look for other options at this time.

    Return on Investment
    Arcoro
    • Saved at least 15 hours of time entry per week
    • Employees clock in and out with accuracy to the minute instead of guessing how many hours they worked on each job/day
    • Jobs/locations are listed on the app so employees can easily find the job they are working on instead of hunting through paperwork to find the location number
    • Geofencing tracks employees clocking in outside the job location

    • In terms of costs, it is a very accessible platform, it is flexible and very easy to process the payroll, we also synchronize it directly with Linkedin for job announcements.
