Contractors struggling with employee time tracking and related payroll processes speak out in response to finally having an Android time tracking app that makes sense in the field.

Contractors struggling with employee time tracking and related payroll processes speak out in response to finally having an Android time tracking app that makes sense in the field.

TSheets.com new Android time tracker app released last month was designed specifically for the needs of remote field workers who need a simple clock in/out interface with real-time (and GPS) tracking and yet optimal managing and reporting functionality in the office.

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, construction is up 4.1% since August 2012, implying that contractors are both lengthening working hours and hiring new workers. Yet while construction is up, many contractors still resort to pushing a pencil when it comes to tracking their crews.

According to Matt Rissell, CEO of TSheets.com, “Contractors often tolerate these types of inefficiencies because they believe that automating the process of invoicing, billing and payroll involve processes and costs that they simply can’t take on. The reality, however, is that labor costs are commonly a contractor's largest expense, and by accurately and efficiently tracking it with a field-worthy solution like our Android app, they save both time and money.”

TSheets.com new Android App delivers contractors everywhere with:

  • A simple user experience
  • 1-click access on the notification bar so employees never forget to clock out
  • Ability to add, edit and delete timesheets
  • GPS tracking while employees are on the clock, even while out-of-service
  • Continuous syncing, never worry about losing important data
  • Small memory footprint and fast app speed
  • Real time payroll reports for bookkeepers in the office

Using this new app completely tailored to the needs of contractors, one company reports their field crews have found it very intuitive and simple to use, and the contractors themselves have been able to “finally reign in the utter craziness that was payroll” (Google Play review).

TSheets’ Android app can be downloaded for free in the Google Play store and requires a TSheets account or free 14-day trial of TSheets.
