## NOVAtime Reviews
  ### 1. Works, but can be glitchy

**Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Restaurants | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 26, 2018

**What do you like best about NOVAtime?**

I enjoy having the mobile application to be able to punch in and out on the go, right from my smartphone.

**What do you dislike about NOVAtime?**

Editing the timesheet, especially on the mobile app, can get glitchy an not work correctly sometimes.

**Recommendations to others considering NOVAtime:**

.

**What problems is NOVAtime solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Makes it easier on the payroll staff I'm sure, and allows employees to edit and track their time as needed, as well as submitting to their manager for approval before it is sent to the payroll team.

  ### 2. Decent program, but could be a lot easier to use.

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Patrick O. | Product Development Manager - Travel Media Group, Marketing and Advertising, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 12, 2017

**What do you like best about NOVAtime?**

As a supervisor the dashboard makes it easy to review and approve employees' timecards. When vacation is approved, it does automatically factor into the time card which makes the workflow easy.

**What do you dislike about NOVAtime?**

It is not always easy to review and approve time off requests, nor determine available time off hours available in-line with the approval process. As you are approving time off, it is also difficult to manage coverage for the entire team without going to calendar or other program.
In our installation, it is easy for managers/supervisors to submit time cards, but non-exempt workers have to punch-in / punch-out and there is no way to default those hours and allow them to edit as needed.

**Recommendations to others considering NOVAtime:**

Decent for a baseline program, but probably missing the functionality to make it great.

**What problems is NOVAtime solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Managing employee hours worked/vacation

  ### 3. Not user friendly

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Hospital & Health Care | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 30, 2018

**What do you like best about NOVAtime?**

Whenever we run into problems, the support team is always willing and able to help. I just wish we didn't have so many problems. Some aspects are easy to use though, which is nice

**What do you dislike about NOVAtime?**

Really glitchy - won't take punches sometimes. 

**What problems is NOVAtime solving and how is that benefiting you?**

clocking in and out for shifts. better than using a time clock
