Combining
TimePilot Systems
Many of our first-time customers aren’t aware that you can add other TimePilot products to your current TimePilot system. All of our TimePilot timeclocks are designed to be used together, in any combination.
The key is that all of the clocks have unique names and they send the data they collect to the same TimePilot database. Each clock-in and clock-out is identified not only by the name of the employee, but also the name of the clock they used. This allows supervisors to see not only when their employees clock in, but where, as well. Your employees’ iButtons can be used on all of our systems except the TimePilot iPhone App.
Here are some examples of multiple-clock systems:
Example 1
The challenge: You have a TimePilot Vetro time and attendance system that’s mounted in your office and is cabled to your network. That’s fine for your office employees, but it means that the people who work in the back shop have to come up to the office to clock in and out. You’d like to have a clock in the shop so they can clock in and out where they work, but your network doesn’t extend to the shop.
The solution: Add another Vetro system. Because Vetro can be used with or without a network, it’s a perfect choice. Mount the Vetro in the shop, plug it into a power source, add your employees, set the time and you’re in business. The clock in the shop will collect and hold clock-ins and clock-outs in its memory until you download them to the included USB drive. Then take the USB drive to the computer you use with the office’s Vetro timeclock and upload the data into the TimePilot software. All the data will be saved to the same database as the office clock, so everything will be in one place and employees can clock in at either clock. And you’ll be able to see in TimePilot Central when and where they clocked in and out.
The cost: Just $349.
Example 2
The challenge: You have a TimePilot Extreme system mounted at a worksite. Occasionally one or two members of your crew do small jobs at different locations, and you’d like to track their time when they’re off-site.
The solution: Add a TimePilot Tap clock. The workers can carry the small, light (5 ounces!), battery-powered Tap with them and use it to clock in when they start the job and clock out when they’re finished. When it’s time to collect their clock-ins and clock-outs, just attach the included USB cable to the Tap and the data uploads automatically to the computer running the TimePilot software. The workers’ clock-ins and clock-outs will appear in the same TimePilot database as your Extreme system, and you can use TimePilot Central to see all of the data.
The cost: Just $139. Want more? We offer volume discounts: three Tap clocks for $399 (save $18) or five for $649 (save $46). Hint: For a limited time, our newsletter subscribers can get Tap clocks at 20% off. See the special deal below!
Example 3
The challenge: You have TimePilot Vetro in your office; you’d like to expand the system so that it includes a clock on an outside loading dock. You also have employees who are on the road all day and don’t want them to drive to the office just to clock in.
The solution: Add TimePilot Extreme and either TimePilot Tap or the TimePilot iPhone App. The weatherproof, rugged, battery-powered TimePilot Extreme is designed to be mounted outdoors. You collect your clock-ins and clock-outs with the included USB drive and upload them to the TimePilot software. If your employees on the road use iPhones, they can use the TimePilot iPhone App and a free service called Dropbox to clock in and out on their phone and send the data to your headquarters. If they don’t have iPhones, they can toss a battery-powered TimePilot Tap clock in their briefcase or toolbox and clock in and out with it. When they get back to the office, the data can be downloaded from the clock to the TimePilot software. All the data from Extreme, the iPhone App and the Tapgoes into the same database and is identified both by employee and by the clock they used.
The cost: $649 for Extreme; $139 for each Tap clock or $3.99 for each TimePilot iPhone App. Hint: For a limited time, our newsletter subscribers can get Tap clocks at 20% off. See the special deal below!
