FAQs
What is time and attendance software?
Time and attendance (T&A) software is used by businesses to track and manage the working hours of their employees. It automates the process of recording when employees clock in and out of work as well as any breaks they take during their shifts. The best T&A software also syncs with payroll systems to ensure employees are compensated accurately based on hours worked.
Why is time tracking important?
Time tracking ensures accurate payroll processing, helps businesses comply with employment laws and regulations, and gives companies a clearer picture of how to manage their resources effectively.

- Build a check-in experience that can’t be outsmarted: Specify exactly how employees should clock their hours—whether via mobile app, kiosk, or desktop.
