Frequently asked questions
What is workforce management software?
Workforce management software brings the tasks involved in managing employees into one connected system. Computime’s platform covers time and attendance, mobile clocking, absence management, site safety, HR and access control, all sharing the same workforce data so records stay accurate and your team is not jumping between separate tools.
What can Computime’s workforce management software do?
It handles time and attendance tracking, GPS mobile clocking, holiday and absence management, fire roll call and visitor management, plus HR, access control and job costing in our Realtime platform. You can choose the capabilities your business needs, all delivered through one connected system.
How much does Computime workforce management software cost?
Syncro Connect software is £2 per employee per month, or £3 with the GPS mobile app. Optional modules are flat annual prices: visitor management is £495 per year and fire roll call is £395 per year. Clocking hardware is a one-off cost from £395. There are no setup fees and no long-term contracts. See full details on our pricing page.
What is the difference between Syncro Connect and Realtime?
Both handle time, attendance, and absence to the same standard, and both include fire roll call and visitor management. Syncro Connect is a cloud, web and app based system, ready in days and ideal for remote and mobile teams. Realtime is installed application software with the broadest feature set, adding HR, document management, job costing, banked hours, flexi-time and access control.
Does it include fire roll call and visitor management?
Yes. Fire roll call and visitor management are available as two separate site safety modules. Fire roll call lets you account for everyone during an evacuation, and visitor management handles visitor sign in, both linked to the same workforce data.
Does it integrate with my payroll software?
Yes. Computime integrates directly with Sage Payroll, and exports your approved hours as a standard file ready for packages including Pegasus and QuickBooks. This removes manual data entry and reduces payroll errors. See more on payroll integration.
What size of business is it for?
Computime’s systems scale from 10 to 5,000 employees, across single or multiple sites. We support businesses in construction, logistics, manufacturing, healthcare, retail, hospitality and education, including those with remote, field based and shift based teams.
Can I try it before committing?
Yes. You can start a free trial of Syncro Connect with no card required and no commitment, giving you full access to the workforce management software, mobile app, and absence management so you can see how it works for your business before you decide.
How is the software delivered?
You can choose Syncro Connect, a cloud based web and app system that is ready to use within days, or Realtime, installed application software with the broadest feature set. Both are built on 30+ years of UK experience since 1989 and supported by our Leeds team.
