Why small businesses switch from manual time tracking to Buddy Punch

You have no time left over for improving or growing your business.
After Buddy Punch
Time tracking is manageable and error-free
Accountability features keep employees honest and timesheets accurate.

Regular hours, overtime, and pay are calculated for you automatically.
Integrations send your time and employee data to payroll instantly.
Buddy Punch has everything you need track time, attendance, and PTO for your small business workers
Track time no matter where or how your employees work
Employees can clock in and out on their computers, mobile phones, or a time clock kiosk (using a PIN, facial recognition, or QR code). They don’t need unique email addresses to be added as users.
Get real-time visibility even when you’re not all on-site
GPS tracking lets you see where employees are while they’re on the clock. Geofencing prevents offsite punching. Attendance alerts notify you when someone is late, leaves early, or misses a shift.
Reduce errors and stay compliant with federal and state laws
Set up break rules to ensure employees follow state meal and rest break laws. View reports that track all timesheet corrections. Create custom overtime policies to automatically identify overtime hours.
Transform payroll from a big effort into a simple task
Download reports formatted perfectly for your payroll provider, or integrate with payroll software like QuickBooks, Gusto, or ADP. Or, better yet, automate payroll entirely with our built-in payroll service.
Create schedules easily and notify employees instantly
Build work schedules quickly. Set up recurring shifts, assign employees to different roles or locations, and view employee availability. Published schedules and changes are sent to employees automatically.
Save time by putting your PTO management on autopilot
PTO tracking adds hours to PTO balances based on your accrual rules. Employees can see their balances and request time off in the app. Approved time off is automatically deducted from balances, added to timesheets, and displayed on upcoming schedules.
Time tracking that works for every industry
In the field
Features like employee GPS tracking, job costing, and mobile apps make Buddy Punch perfect for industries like construction, landscaping, cleaning services, plumbing, home repair, HVAC, and agriculture.
