### "Good value solution for keeping time" — 4.0/5

> **Lina** | *17 April 2020* | Veterinary | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I liked how the Hour Summaries were organized, those were pleasant looking screens. Also, it was easy and flexible in terms of generating reports for audits. Liked how employee database was structured.
> 
> **Cons**: Our version was not cloud based, you couldn't look up the punches on the web, the software was installed into one machine at the office.
> 
> We used it for over 10 years with minimal if any issues. We bought the biometric time clock at Costco and derived the super good value from this time tracking solution over the years.

### "TGP is an average, workable time tracking solution" — 4.0/5

> **Drew** | *09 August 2018* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Integrated, locally-hosted website for clocking in and out is simple, well designed, and intuitive. Has support for older wall units we have on shop floor for techs to punch in and out. Integration features to push to our financial package work great.
> 
> **Cons**: Runs slow, has some older legacy quirks in design for administrating. Windows services crash for no apparent reason sometimes.
> 
> TGP works well for us. It can be a bit tempermental when it comes to managing, as sometimes the windows services will crash/stop working. We use it to track a 1/2 mobile, 1/2 local workforce and it works great. Setup can be a bit tricky and it requires some check-in management, so I wouldn't run this in your environment if you didn't have an IT guy around.
