We use ADP as well it works well. Not sure what we are paying for it. Only issue with ADP is that if you do bi-weekly paychecks on monday morning when you are doing payroll and employees are trying to check in, the system gets overloaded and accepts your punch but doesn¹t record it!! It happened predictably all summer/fall last year. They never fixed the issue but since we changed to bimonthly it hasn¹t been an issue.

That's why my pay period ends on a Friday and payroll isn't until the next Wednesday... I have all weekend and most of Monday to get payroll into QuickBooks for direct deposit.

Re: [WISPA] OT Time Clocks...
Check out TimeTrex. There's a free/community edition, and the paid version is pretty reasonable and has an Android/iOS app, job costing, etc. The setup, especially if you have to shoehorn existing policies into it, can be a little arduous. But after that, it just works. hth, -Kristian On 03/31/2014 03:39 PM, Bob Moldashel wrote: OK This is a little off topic as far as wireless goes but I am looking for a time clock to keep track of employee time.
