## Overview

### Key benefits of OnTheClock

 Employees can punch in using their mobile phones, with users able to set GPS and IP address control to ensure employees can only clock in and out from approved locations.&#10;&#10; Employees can also punch in and out from a computer, group punch using a wall-mounted tablet or similar device, or use their fingerprints to clock in and out, preventing ‘buddy punching’.&#10;&#10; Employee schedules can be created by dragging-and-dropping shifts into the schedule.&#10;&#10; Punches and hours can be edited in time cards, with instant recalculations and updates of any changes made.&#10;&#10; OnTheClock.com integrates with payroll providers and supports semi-monthly, monthly, bi-weekly, and weekly pay periods.&#10;&#10; Paid time off (PTO) accruals can be managed for personal, holiday/vacation, and sickness time off, and all absences and time off tracked.

## Reviews

### "I love how convenient this software is for my employees to use and for me to access their data." — 5.0/5

> **Emma** | *30 April 2018* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like the ability to limit where my employees can sign in online. This allows me to make sure remote employees are actually at work when they clock in.
> 
> **Cons**: I would like to make it easier to get to the basic login screen for my employees. They often have to go to the more detailed home page first.

-----

### "On the Clock Review" — 5.0/5

> **Ashlee** | *2 March 2026* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like the detailed timecard tab that shows what time I punched in and out and how many hours i've clocked so I can keep track of it
> 
> **Cons**: Sometimes it glitches when I go to click on my timecard it doesn't open and I have to click it again for it to open.

-----

### "Don’t trust you’re actually clocked in\!" — 2.0/5

> **Steven** | *3 October 2025* | Political Organization | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Paycheck at the end.
> 
> **Cons**: When I clock in in the morning and it says clocked in. Then 10 hours later when I go to clock out I wasn’t even clocked in. Makes me look stupid to my boss this happening over and over
> 
> Sucks. Over and over after I clock in I’m not actually clocked in. I HATE IT\! I really wish my boss would just get a manual timeclock

-----

### "OnTheClock: Dependable Time Tracking, Light on Polish" — 5.0/5

> **Grace** | *29 January 2026* | Research | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Super simple clock-in/clock-out – employees don’t need much training at all. Open the app, tap once, done. Overall, it felt very practical: not flashy, just thoughtfully designed to remove everyday time-tracking pain.
> 
> **Cons**: Editing punches can be clunky for managers—too many clicks for something that’s actually pretty common. So yeah—OnTheClock is solid and dependable, but it’s more “gets the job done” than “wow, this is elegant.” Perfect for straightforward time tracking, less so if your workforce rules are complicated or fast-growing.
> 
> It’s the kind of tool that doesn’t try to impress you—it just quietly does its job. Time tracking was reliable, employees picked it up quickly, and as a manager I didn’t spend much time troubleshooting or explaining things. That alone is a win. Not the most flexible or modern system, but a solid choice if you want accurate hours without complexity or extra fluff.

### "Great App—Easy to Use and Keeps Me on Track" — 5.0/5

> **Ryan** | *28 February 2026* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Quick and easy to use—clock in and out in seconds, track hours accurately, and stay on schedule\! Now
> 
> **Cons**: Sometimes it doesn’t load in my browser, so I have to refresh it or try again later to get it working.
> 
> It's been great so far—I really like the app\! Easy to use, smooth, and keeps me on track. Every day\!
