Hey, I'm Kelvin with Hubstaff.
[1]
In this video, we're going to take a look at some of the best employee GPS tracking
[5]
apps available.
[10]
All right.
[11]
So if job sites and travel are part of your business, then you've probably thought about how handy
[16]
it would be to be able to track an employee's location and the hours they're working
[20]
at the same time.
[21]
Whether you run a construction business, a landscaping or cleaning company, a delivery
[25]
service, or any other business that has staff out in the field, it's important for you to
[30]
know where your people are so you can dispatch team members properly and get work done right.
[35]
So let's go ahead and jump into these seven employee GPS tracking apps that will help
[39]
you manage your crew and run your business more smoothly.
[42]
The first app on our list is one we're just a tad partial to and that is Hubstaff.
[47]
We provide you with incredibly accurate GPS location services and geo-fences.
[52]
With Hubstaff, you also have access to an easy to use mobile app that's available on
[56]
both iOS and Android, and with automatic reporting, payroll integrations, and productivity monitoring,
[63]
it's an all in one business tool.
[65]
The free iOS and Android apps allow you to see time spent in transit versus time spent
[69]
at a job or client site.
[71]
This helps give you a clearer picture of how your team works.
[74]
Now to make things even easier, you can add customized job sites in Hubstaff so time tracking
[79]
will automatically start and stop as a team member enters or leaves a location.
[84]
Also, Hubstaff integrates with over 30 other popular business software like QuickBooks,
[89]
Salesforce, TransferWise and much more.
[92]
And finally, Hubstaff offers premium features starting at $10 a user per month.
[97]
Number two on our list is Timesheet Mobile, available on both iOS and Android.
[102]
This app can track employee work time and location from anywhere and it also gives you
[106]
real-time syncing to an employer portal so you can always get an idea of where your employees
[110]
are at any specific time.
[113]
Another cool feature is the ability to capture mileage for expense reports.
[116]
Pricing wise it comes in at $3.49 per employee for unlimited punches and $14.99 for a company
[122]
subscription.
[123]
Next is Labor Sync and this is a multi-lingual cloud-based app that lets you track your workforce
[129]
from anywhere.
[130]
You'll be able to see which job sites your crew is at, where they are when they clock
[133]
in and out, and an interactive map that lets you monitor their workday.
[137]
And with batch entries, not every employee needs their own smartphone because multiple
[142]
team members can be tracked with one device.
[144]
It also has a messaging feature so employees can be notified of any meetings or scheduled
[149]
changes.
[150]
And for pricing, Labor Sync starts at $10 a user per month.
[154]
HoursTracker has automatic overtime, location awareness, tags, and filters.
[159]
Users can also be notified when it's time to leave so you can set an expected number
[163]
of hours per day for them to work and receive an alert whenever they approach the end of
[168]
that allotted time.
[169]
A notification 15 minutes prior helps employees know when it's time to clock out for the day.
[174]
Finally, you can also choose to receive notifications when someone arrives or leaves an area.
[179]
And HoursTracker is free to download and comes in at $9.99 for the Pro Edition.
[184]
Number five on our list is TSheets and this app offers an intuitive experience when you're
[189]
clocking in and out, changing job codes, or performing any other time tracking and management
[195]
actions on the go.
[197]
Its background synchronization technology and enhanced GPS functionality are optimized
[202]
so that TSheets won't drain your device's battery.
[205]
Plus the app continuously syncs so you never have to worry about losing your data if your
[209]
connection suddenly cuts out.
[211]
TSheets can also generate a convenient map of activity for the day so it's easy to see
[216]
where a user has been.
[217]
Pricing comes in at $5 a month per user and a $20 base fee for up to 99 users.
[223]
Next is Timr, and Timr tracks your working time and project time on the go.
[228]
While Timr's, web application focuses on time tracking their mobile app can also handle
[233]
GPS tracking.
[234]
The web and mobile apps also continuously sync automatically so users are always working
[239]
with the same data.
[241]
Compared to some of the other apps on this list, Timr is more lightweight and lacks some
[246]
of the business-focused features that other apps have.
[249]
As far as pricing goes, it starts at about $8.87 a month per user.
[254]
And the final app on our list is Gleeo, which provides efficient time tracking and location
[259]
monitoring services.
[260]

[265]

[267]
It makes time-tracking easy and simplifies reports, which are so easy to view and access
[272]
that you can check them out when you're on the move and you can also export reports via
[276]
Bluetooth or email.
[278]
Gleeo allows unlimited projects and tasks per project, as well as an animated timeline
[283]
that will show you what a user is doing.
[285]
