Picture Timeclock

Picture Timeclock is a software utility that was built specifically to aid managers in tracking the time employees come and go at work by asking them to clock in and out, take their pictures, and generate reports with ease.

The app’s interface can only be described as plain and simple, seeing it only encompasses a menu bar and a few buttons. Although it is not particularly easy on the eyes, extensive Help contents are included and thus, it can be used by everybody, without facing any difficulties.

This tool enables you to use a provided database for employees, so that you can give it a try without fearing that you will damage your data. Aside from that, you can also create your own database, by simply adding employee name, ID, start and stop times for each day, and status. In order to make things easier, you can also create departments and organize the personnel according to them.

It is possible to connect a web camera to this program, so as to take pictures of your employees, create custom messages for when people punch in or out early or late, as well as input a master password, so that only authorized people can change your settings.

Last but not least, reports can be generated according to start and end date, in an employee or department order. You can also preview them in a dedicated window and print them with just a click of the button.

To wrap it up, Picture Timeclock is a pretty efficient piece of software when it comes to tracking the time at which personnel in your company comes and goes. The interface is quite friendly to all users, yet it is not particularly appealing. The response time is good and our tests did not register any hangs or freezes. It does not require a large amount of resources and thus, does not affect the system’s performance.
