Enterprise eTIME, by ADP (discontinued) vs. AT&T Workforce Manager

It is well suited for an Outsourcing business. This type of business has a lot of clients to serve and most of the time consultants serve multiple different clients, eTime suits this kind of setup since it can aid on the accuracy of billing clients for hours rendered by consultants to them.

Any organization that is collecting any kind of data in the field, especially if they're using paper forms, should strongly consider switching to AT&T if only for their Wireless Forms. Wireless Forms is the most powerful tool in AT&T Workforce Manager. Combine that with Timekeeping and Intelligent Tracking to really improve efficiency and accountability.

Incentivized

• Ability to clock hours without a physical time clock/punchcard -- great for jobs like tutoring, which may not have a central meeting location
• Ability to clock hours for multiple positions in different departments across an organization -- one paycheck, even though I had multiple supervisors and different pay rates

• Wireless Forms gives users the ability to digitize any paper form. You can include text, number, camera, audio, and bar codes, among other fields.
• Intelligent tracking provides a location any time a user is moving or performs any action.
• Robust reporting provides actionable data that organizations can use to make strategic decisions regarding their fleet and workforce.

Incentivized

• The setup is difficult for administers.
• Mapping the pay rules to the accrual profiles, pay codes, etc., is hard to administer as well.
• The consultants at ADP do not know the system well in some cases so getting help with setup and issues can be difficult.

Incentivized

• It is currently not possible to create mass geofence alerts. Alerts need to be created per geofence. This can be a big undertaking for organizations with many addresses.

Already using product and I have been happy with the results.

In some ways, the flexibility of eTime makes it much more usable than some time card systems. I can log my own hours at my convenience (as long as it is during the pay period), and eTime sends me a reminder email 24 hours before the cut-off for each pay period. I can log hours for multiple positions using particular pay codes, although there is no way for me to save frequently used or "my" pay codes -- adding this feature would be a much-appreciated improvement to eTime's usability. Juggling multiple pay codes within the current system, however, is cumbersome. There can also be problems if an incorrect or overlapping hour is accidentally entered and saved -- certain fields turn red and are difficult to adjust, often requiring the help of a software administrator. Correcting other errors and entering historical hours is extremely difficult, and the software does not work well on some browsers (and it is unattractive when I have been able to get it to work)

Based on my usage of the program is why I rated it a 7. I used for verifying attendance and employee time cards for accuracy and/or discrepancies.

The customer experience/service department and technical support teams work through any situations that arise. They are responsive and provide excellent service.

I have not used similar workforce management platform though Enterprise eTIME, by ADP has never failed us in any day. It has given our teams the best guidance on effective implementation of projects and tasks. Close monitoring of our daily programs has lead to increased production. We have managed to implement our duties based on the set timelines.

• Since I was an employee using the software, rather than someone managing the software, I can't say how it compares to other possible solutions. As an individual user it was sometimes convenient and often frustrating, but I'm not sure whether this reflects the experience of my supervisors, the payroll administrator, and/or the College overall.

• With AT&T Workforce Manager I've helped government and private organizations save money by identifying idle time in fleets, reducing data collection time in the field, and cutting on employees padding their timesheets.
