So, you’ve switched time tracking software providers in order to save a couple of bucks. We get it, cutting costs helps improve your immediate bottom line. But now you’re finding the bargain-basement, one-size-fits-all solution isn’t meeting your needs. What you made up for in initial costs, you’re losing in customer service, scalability, compliance issues and integration problems – all of which have cost you much more than what you were previously paying. Don’t worry, it’s easy to come back to ExakTime. 

Every month former customers call us wanting to switch back to ExakTime. These customers tell us other time tracking solutions didn’t meet their expectations, or worse, didn’t come close to performing as promised.  

ExakTime was built for construction, which is why it’s the industry’s #1 time tracking solution. Other solutions claim to work as well as ExakTime but they can’t match everything ExakTime offers. 

Why ExakTime Outperforms the Competition 

Construction companies choose ExakTime because: 

  • ExakTime was designed for construction, so it works like a dream in the field and in the office. 
  • Our US-based customer support team is responsive, prompt and knowledgeable. 
  • The intuitive back end is easy for office staff and owners to learn and navigate. 

But what really makes ExakTime stand out is features that not only help construction companies track employee hours but efficiently manage all aspects of the job. 

ExakTime is easy to use and has field-worthy features. 

ExakTime is designed to be simple to use and intuitive. It works so well that others copy our innovations; the green (clock-in) and red (clock-out) layout we originated is now the industry standard. However, it is the construction-specific features that really make ExakTime stand out from the competition. 

  • FaceFront captures a photo ID of the worker when they clock in or out, eliminating buddy punching. And, unlike other biometric features, it doesn’t require hands, which can get dirty on a job site, messing with a fingerprint scan. 
  • GPS tracking and geofencing add another level of security by tracking where employees are located when they clock-in or out. 
  • Equipment tracking allows companies to track both crews and equipment from any mobile device. Equipment tracking allows contractors to see when and where equipment is being used, allowing them to stay ahead of maintenance and other costs. 
  • Scheduling worker shifts and tasks in advance and never wonder what’s happening at a remote job site. ExakTime Mobile gives you a one-screen snapshot of any job site with a live feed of clock-in and clock-out activity, a running labor budget, Field Notes, weather and more. 
  • Field notes allow workers or supervisors in the field to record text, audio or photo updates and send them to the cloud with one click. Notes appear on the dashboard of our cloud software and are also attached to job sites in your system, so that they never get lost and remain part of your labor record. 
  • Mobile compliance features offer instant access to a digital “paper trail”, as well as a history of every punch-out that includes employee responses to compliance-related questions every single time they finish a shift. Workers can review digital time cards and approve them with a signature. You can also prompt employees to sign off on compliance-related questions regarding breaks and injuries at clock-out. This information protects your business from audits, lawsuits and fines because you’ll have digital proof of an employee checking all compliance boxes. 

ExakTime offers exceptional behind-the-scenes support. 

Beyond these best-in-class features, ExakTime offers support, integrations and data reports that go above and beyond what other time tracking software provides. 

  • Customer service that’s timely and responsive. Customers can still have questions, even with the easiest solutions. ExakTime offers an award-winning support team. Based in the US, knowledgeable problem-solvers are available to help when you need them. ExakTime’s approach to customer support is multi-tiered. It starts with Support Central, our online self-service help center that offers information on everything from getting started with ExakTime to running reports. And, if a customer can’t find what they need or they want more assistance they can chat with a support person, submit a support request and even get help through remote log-in. 
  • Integration partnerships you won’t find anywhere else. Another way ExakTime is embedded in the construction industry is our partnerships. ExakTime has active relationships with numerous construction associations and con tech leaders to provide a complete construction solution informed by the needs of the industry. Our strong partner ecosystem ensures our customers get the advantages of solid, proven integrations that make their lives easier. ExakTime seamlessly integrates with Sage, Quickbooks, Viewpoint, Foundation, Acumatica, Procore and many more. 
  • Advanced data analytics tools provide access to workforce data and reporting features. ExakTime customers have the ability to pull reports on the data collected by our software, like applications received, certifications achieved and labor hours logged per job site. Users have access to pre-built dashboards with the ability to customize and build their own reports, game changing for many companies.  

Switching back to ExakTime is easy. 

If you’re currently using another web-based time tracking solution, switching back to ExakTime is simple…and quick. Most companies take just a single payroll cycle—one week—to make the change, and those that used us in the past may get going even faster. Plus, our implementation experts are here to help. 

Don’t struggle through one more payroll with a solution that wasn’t designed for construction, doesn’t offer you support when you need it and isn’t easy to use. Come back to ExakTime. Contact us today to get started.
