    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.

    A good scenario for this program is when you need to roll out more customized and specific content that is targeted to a specific department or group. Each leader or department can create their own content that makes it easy for their own employees to complete and finish it at their own pace and on their own hours. It is not that great for leaders or administrators that want to create and upload custom content, this process is not easy and takes more time than it should.

    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.

    • The user interface and command are fairly self-guiding and self-explanatory. It's not that difficult to know or figure out where to go next or what to click next.
    • The lesson progression and tracker are clear as well. You know easily where you are in a module, how much is left, etc. It also is easy for managers and those on the backend to track progress and see completion.
    • It reaches all employees virtually which is crucial since we are fully remote now and have employees in all time zones across the country.

    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.

    • Customizing the [Vector] LMS content can be difficult sometimes on the backend, it is not intuitive and our [Vector] LMS administrators have to get involved every time - even for simple customizations.
    • Improving the experience on the backend when loading or curating content needs improvement. Once it's uploaded it's fine, but getting to that point is cumbersome.
    • Platform stability is questionable at times in terms of timing out, glitches, having to restart modules, etc. This should be looked into and made more stable.

    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.

    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.

    I was not involved in the selection process for [Vector] LMS; however, from my experiences with other platforms, this one seems to be solid. It's not perfect as no platform is, but it seems to get the job done especially for those on the user end. As mentioned, if you want to upload custom content it can be a task that requires more time and effort than it should.

    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

    • I cannot speak to the cost of the platform as I wasn't involved in the process, but it seems to be a good investment. Most features are logical and easy to use unless you're on the backend.
    • The negative impact is most felt by leaders that want custom content to be created or uploaded. This is not a quick turnaround and can cause delays or issues.
    • The positive impact is it allows people to complete it at their own pace and can be reached by all employees. Especially in the virtual environment, it is really useful.
