"Works just fine for a Timesheet program"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Greenshades?

The ability to copy a past timesheet and use it again. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Greenshades?

It's a little cumbersome. It involves quite a bit of clicking and selecting to account for odd time input. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Greenshades:

If you are looking for a relatively simple and working web-based payroll software for a lower cost, this will work just fine. Is it the best thing I've ever used? No, but it's a timesheet system, it doesn't have to solve quantum equations for me. It could be a little less cumbersome to enter in work hours, but it's not rocket science. The really nice feature is the ability to copy previous timesheets! If you work the same schedule week in and out, then just copy and re-use the same one over and over again, you'll be done in no time! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Greenshades solving and how is that benefiting you?

We went from paper timesheets to a web-based program. It was a big step into the next century! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Greenshades gets the job done, but it is not super user friendly."

3/5

What do you like best about Greenshades?

I like that there is an app, although you cannot do some features through the app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Greenshades?

I dislike the time and attendance feature. I wish it would automatically fill in the end date for you because most time entries will be done on the same day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Greenshades:

There are other vendors out there, so I would shop around. But, my guess is that Greenshades is a lower cost options and it does get the job done. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Greenshades solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are solving the old way of using paper time sheets. Now, employees can simply login to the app or the desktop version and enter their hours. Also, the ability for supervisors to approve multiple time sheets at one time is nice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
