“This is an easy product to use for management and employees. All aspects of payroll are at your fingertips. We handle many different projects, and Buddy Punch makes it easy to track the hours we’re spending on them.”
“Buddy Punch lets employees select the job they are working on so we can have accurate billing. As an administrator, I use the reports feature to filter out the hours based on the job. I like that I can see all the hours worked on a job for the week, and it is totaled up for me.”
“We are a custom fab shop, so we use a lot of job codes. The software is easy to use for that purpose. I am able to access all of the information even when I am on the road, so I am always in the loop on attendance and who is working on what projects.”
