Employee Scheduling and Time management made easy
Reviewed on 9/11/2023
Pros
I have used Homebase for employee scheduling and time tracking for 2 years. It has made the job of keeping track of employee availability, leave of absence, and labor so much easier. So I spend more time on the development of other areas of my work.
Cons
Honestly, all the features that I would want are supported by Homebase on different product packages.

Having scheduling, time tracking, payroll, tax filing, workers comp insurance and audits all in one place is a lifesaver.
Pros
It's been a valuable tool for being able to use historical sales data to decide how many employees to schedule on any given day. It helps me budget wages accurately.
Cons
Some functionality is clunky with too many steps, occasionally we have problems with the time clock, geolocation doesn't work.
