## Reviews

### "Fast, painless payroll and time clock" — 5.0/5

> **Jess** | *10 May 2020* | Restaurants | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy to use on any mobile device. Mobile-first design is key in our industry, no one is sitting there at the small cafe with a desktop or even a laptop. Our tools need to be on the phones in our pockets, easy to access, and just as easy to slip back into the pocket so we can get on with the day.
> 
> **Cons**: No support yet for robust scheduling so we have not been able to move that over to this app and we really had to play around with and modify our own system in regards to tips distribution to fit their workflow. But updates to a model we were using the past 7 years were long overdue and we have good buy-in from staff and users.
> 
> They are hands-on and dedicated to building the best product so that means agreeable fees, quick service, and things you request make it into the beta channel quickly.

### "Everything you need for less" — 5.0/5

> **David** | *17 March 2025* | Facilities Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: hourly provides a very easy and intuitive interface that allows for simple payroll processing, and an API integration with QuickBooks. Also handled all the Time an Labor functions without the need of a 3rd party . Hourly provide the best price model we have ever seen. you can run daily payrolls and pay one flat fee a month
> 
> **Cons**: PTO tracking could be better. Example: a calendar view with all employees listed per day
> 
> Very good. &#10;we were set up very quickly and any issues from the onsite were addressed quickly.

### "A bit glitchy at times, but generally a good tool" — 3.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *20 August 2025* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It made it easy to work with external teams on projects that needed billing, splitting hours up to bill them to different project codes.
> 
> **Cons**: It sometimes takes a while to refresh when it has been updated so it's hard to see exactly what the current situation is with my projects at times.  This does generally resolve fairly quickly.
> 
> I've used hourly to streamline billing when working for out-of-hours or external projects.  It has been pretty user friendly and accessible for the whole team.
