How many employees do you need to monitor? [required]

Most companies need basic time and attendance systems such as time clocks when they have about 25 staff members. Larger companies – with a staff of 250 or more – usually require a more robust system. If you have fewer than 25 staff members and have a manageable time sheet system, a time and attendance system may not be right for you.

How many locations will use this time and attendance system? [required]
Do you have Internet access at these locations? [required]

For companies with remote offices, time management systems that use the Internet can allow employees to monitor and enter their time without being in the office.

Do you want a PC-based or Web-based system? [required]

PC-based time and attendance systems require upfront licensing fees, but run on your hardware. Web-based systems have smaller initial costs, are run by the supplier on their hardware, and carry a monthly usage fee.

Do you have a preferred data collection method? [required]

Punch Clock Systems do not provide integration with other office programmes such as Payroll, HR or Accounting and therefore require manual data collection and monitoring. The other options presented here typically do integrate with internal HR systems -- our suppliers will be able to assist you if you are unsure which best meets your needs.

How soon do you need the time and attendance system? [required]
What industry are you in? [required]

Some suppliers specialise in time and attendance systems for industries with specific monitoring and reporting requirements. Ask the supplier if they can tailor a customised solution for your business.

Will you need to monitor additional employees with this system during the next year?

If you think your company will grow considerably over the next few years, make sure the time and attendance system you purchase is modular. This will allow you to seamlessly add new employees to the database. If you don’t expect significant growth, a smaller system is probably best.

Include other departments that you'll want to monitor at a later date in your estimate.

What additional features do you require?
(Please tick all that apply)

Basic time and attendance systems such as time clock software offer employee time monitoring, schedule management, and lateness and absenteeism monitoring. More advanced systems feature increased functionality and more robust reporting to evaluate workforce productivity and forecast future workforce needs. Some suppliers even specialise in for industries with specific calendar and reporting requirements.

What is your business postcode? [required] 
Please describe in detail any other requirements you may have for your time and attendance system.
