As a supervisor, placing the power to review timesheets prior to approval in the hands of my employees is important. When it's time to approve hours, my employees now have less questions and feel more empowered to know how much they're going to get paid. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Greenshades? On our end, it was difficult to connect to our existing servers. We had to use our old (other service) and new (Greenshades) clock in/out services simultaneously. Also, the default is to show how much income you have - not ideal for preventing workplace envy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Greenshades: N/A; keep it up! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It syncs with our Dynamics GP database and allows us to have an employee self-service portal. We have it set up for nearly ten companies, with employees logging in to view pay stubs, complete benefits open enrollment and changes, and to make updates to W-4s. There are additional modules available for Greenshades as well, that allow our team to calculate complex garnishments, process W-2, and more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Greenshades? The Greenshades Connector just the job, but it is a nightmare when it comes to scheduling. Since we have several companies on GP and Greenshades, we often have instances where a single company needs to be manually synced to Greenshades. If we do not go back into the Connector and re-select all our company databases, they will NOT be included in our regularly scheduled sync. This causes delays in employees receiving paystubs and everyone gets worried that they didn't get paid, phones start ringing off the hook, and so on. Greenshades could make major strides by improving how syncs are scheduled and preventing manual syncs from overriding what is already scheduled. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Greenshades solving and how is that benefiting you? We have solved paystub distribution with Greenshades Employee Services. For some of our companies with more field personnel, we have chosen to send PDF paystubs out via email through Greenshades ES. Companies with mostly/all office personnel are simply logging into the ES portal to view their paystubs. Additionally, after moving to GP this year, we were left without a good way to perform Open Enrollment benefits elections. Greenshades ES allows us to build our benefits packages so employees can view the offerings and select their health, dental, etc. choices. These elections then sync down to GP and update payroll deductions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Green shades is merdiocre " 2/5 What do you like best about Greenshades? Pretty self explanatory when usuing the site. It’s very easy to navigate once you have all of the access codes. A good way to save the trees and receive your W4’s electronically rather than through the mail. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Greenshades?

I like all of my documents and work offers are in one central location. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Greenshades? For a position that travels and like my position does, it would be more beneficial to have a better mobile app. I hate that it only lets you clock in and clock out instead of input times like the desktop version. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Greenshades solving and how is that benefiting you? It makes it easy for leadership to see how much overtime is being worked on by employees. Which is much Better than our personal spreadsheets we kept when we were salary. This also assists employees in realizing when personal limits are coming close to being met and time off is much needed. In turn, this somewhat helps in employee self care and longevity.

" 5/5 What do you like best about Greenshades? I like having all my forms available online and it's easy to access. I also like how the app operates. I am able to view my tax forms as well as clock in hours while I am away fro my computer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Greenshades? How there is not a way to copy the same hours for every day. You have to manually put in each day. If the app or the website allowed you to easily copy the same amount of hours for a previous day for other days, it would make the website/app better for users, making it faster to complete my time sheet. This way I have more time to complete my work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Greenshades: Download the app to your phone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Greenshades solving and how is that benefiting you? When a tax form gets loss in the mail, greenshades allows you to access it online. When I do not have my computer on me, the app on my phone allows me to complete what I need to on time. he two-second verification factor allows me to quickly be able to log into greenshades from whatever device. You are able to save the document easily on your phone from the app and it is not complicated. While getting my taxes completed, I was able to quickly get all my documents uploaded and saved to my phone and email it my accountant. When applying for loans, I was able to get my previous pay stubs quickly sent over to my banker, the app was allowing me to send over the right information needed.
