When I was recommended to try uAttend, at first I wasn’t even sure I needed
it. But seeing the difference that uAttend has made for my company, obviously I
wish I started earlier.
Tell us about YOUR BUSINESS:
Our company is called SirReel Studio Rentals. We started in
1996; it was just me. We work with people from all over the entertainment
industry and in all different genres. Primarily though, we focus on television
commercials. Anything they need that’s not on camera, we’re trying to provide that
for them from trucking to motor homes to makeup stations, whatever they need. SirReel
has a tremendous amount of equipment and employees and things all over, and it’s
really nice now to not have to worry about our time
clock management. To have uAttend, it takes that and puts it to bed. It’s
something we don’t have to worry about at all.
What are the BENEFITS of uAttend?
The feature that I’m loving about uAttend, currently, is the
“Who’s In” feature. I actually live 100 miles from my primary office, so often
I’ll need to know who is at the warehouse right now. I can just pull it up –
it’s definitely changed our business.
Here we are in the wood working shop. See here they’re
working on some rolling makeup mirrors. Sometimes we’ll have a shoot going on, like
for instance the Oscars or the Grammys, and we’ll have some employees that need
to show up there just to unload a truck or whatever. They clock in with their
mobile device and save us that time. This makes it easier for the employee and
easier for employer, so it’s perfect for us. Let me show you our celebrity
vehicle called SOLO. [uAttend is] really easy to download straight into QuickBooks.
It talks to QuickBooks, tells them what the hours are, puts it in a format we
can use, and immediately we are running payroll. It’s perfect for us.
Would you RECOMMEND uAttend?
If you are going to incorporate a time clock system
today, to me it would be silly to use anything other than uAttend. It makes our
employees more efficient, more accountable to being here on time. It’s online.
It’s web-based. It makes it so easy that to go back to the way they used to do
it, to me, it doesn’t make any sense. You gotta do it this way.
