Not suitable to accurately account for complexities around New Zealand leave entitlements

We were sold a complete timekeeping and payroll solutions and spent weeks implementing the system only to learn subsequently that leave wasn't accruing correctly for our staff that didn't have a fixed work pattern, so be careful if you want to use this in a business where staff work different shifts each week.

Don't waste your time

Worst decision we have made. It takes an age to set up, the rostering functionalities are clunky, the app for staff to clock in/out doesn't work, and the customer service team takes days to get back to you to fix any problems. Absolute waste of money, save yourself time and money and look elsewhere.
