### "Great Option for Small to Mid Size Companies Looking to find an Affordable Attendance Tracker, Plus" — 5.0/5

> **Linda** | *21 May 2020* | Human Resources | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is affordable and easy to use.  This app allows you to track your attendance and be able to print it out whenever you need a hard copy as well.
> 
> **Cons**: Would like it if they would make more safety training available and update it annually. The app recently added for safety is legally compliant, but does not update at this time.  I have suggested that they add other areas to the safety training app which they say they will consider in the future.
> 
> This is a great app that allows you to track attendance and training from the same dashboard all while ensuring compliance.  It is easy to use, there is a little set up, but well worth the time it takes to load your employees.  They keep adding to the apps available and the cost is very affordable at $90 per app per year.  If you are still using pen and paper, this is a great option for you to try and only requires a year commitment.

### "If you're seeking Intuitive software, look elsewhere" — 3.0/5

> **Susan** | *19 August 2024* | Staffing & Recruiting | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The application allows applicants to apply.
> 
> **Cons**: Lack of communication, an application would be put in but not communicated to us that it was available.
> 
> Not the best application to use as you have to go into it to get the information instead of it being provided automatically.

### "We Love This Product\!" — 5.0/5

> **David** | *21 April 2019* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: With Smart Apps, I never had to worry about tracking hours and time sheets again\!
> 
> **Cons**: We apparently weren't smart enough to figure out Smart Apps at first but we made a enough mistakes to finally get things right.
> 
> Keeping track of employees became overwhelming as we grew larger. Smart Apps allowed me to spend my time doing more important things and not worry as much as incorrect tracking issues.

> 
> Overall, I've had a positive experience with HRdirect Smart Apps.
