Insightful offers various methods to manage and track Time & Attendance of your employees. Choosing the one that is right for your operation depends on your objectives, on how you want your employees to engage with Insightful and how you've deployed the application.

Below is a quick summary of each option, with a link to a detailed page where you can learn more.

Automatic Attendance [Company Computers]

The Automatic Attendance tracking option eliminates the effort of manually entering inputs from your employees using company computers. Instead, Insightful automatically tracks their activities and performs all the work time and attendance related calculations based on your specific settings and the collected employee activity data.

Manual Attendance

This is an option that allows employees to manage their workdays as well as Clock-In and Clock-Out using Insightful's virtual time clock. Manual attendance tracking is our most commonly used scenario in which employees maintain control over their start/stop times and breaks while maintaining privacy for non-work activities as these are not being tracked.

Project-Based Attendance

With our Project-Based attendance tracking option time and activities are only tracked when employees start/stop working on designated projects and tasks. This scenario goes beyond the more general shift or day tracking and provides accurate and meaningful data at the task or project level, while enabling employees with more control over when Insightful is operating as well.
