It’s well suited for those with hourly employees who require daily time cards. As well it’s beneficial for reporting for projects as to costs for labour and for extras that are requested on site.
Heavy highway construction jobs in the state of Kansas almost always have state and/or federal funding. Because of this, any employee on the job must be accounted for by a labor classification and time on the job. My company uses BusyBusy not just to track overall time, but what jobs they are on, what labor classification they are working under, what truck/equipment is taken. The certified payroll process of our company was a huge factor when decided on an electronic time card app - BusyBusy was the best option for this!
Pros
Individual responsibility for time cards
easy review of all time through projects or groups of people
breadcrumb tracking of employees
Cons
the scheduling feature has room for improvement - the views are not condensed and cannot be viewed by all employee groups
during the time card review process - instead of a description - it would be nice to have a reason section when changing a time card
the geo fences around projects - I wish they could be linear
Likelihood to Recommend
BusyBusy is well suited for organizations with multiple off site job locations which require tracking. Due to it's ability to setup a high volume of work locations as well as bread crumb tracking between home office and job site, I think it is best suited for the service industry including construction, plumbing, landscaping etc. It is less appropriate for organization with single office on site work.
