Tracking time should be easy, accurate, and adaptable. With Timebutler, you get a reliable and secure time tracker designed to fit your business’s unique needs. Our advanced features ensure precise time tracking while protecting your data, so you can focus on what matters most.

Multiple Time Entry and Recording Options

Record work hours manually or in a few clicks using Timebutler’s virtual time clock for fast, easy, and accurate time tracking – for example, right at your office entrance.

Seamless Regulatory Compliance

We make it easy to comply with working hours and overtime regulations. Once you’ve set country, age-specific, or custom work hours for your team, Timebutler will automatically calculate adjustments and alert employees when changes are needed. That way, your business stays compliant and in control. No excuses.

100% Control and Customization

Track time your way. With a few clicks, you can set manager approval workflows for absence and time modification requests. You can also assign projects and categories to time entries and create working time accounts for each employee.

Time Recording Terminal

Turn your regular tablet into a time clock without writing any code. Our time recording terminal is super easy to set up and use. Employees can record their hours with a quick tap as they come or go, and managers will get instant visibility into working hours.

Make Absence Planning Simple With Our Online Vacation Planner

Visualize all types of absences in one dashboard. Set vacation limits per year, track time off with clear calendar or list views, and filter entries as needed. Color-coded absences keep everything organized so you never miss a vacation request or calendar update.

Vacation Allocation

Customize vacation allocation, track remaining and expired days, and automatically carry over unused time to the next year — all based on each employee’s schedule.

Vacation Substitution

Never let time off disrupt team productivity. With Timebutler, employees can assign a substitute before their vacation, so managers aren’t scrambling to fill the gap. Substitute statuses are clearly displayed for full transparency.

Approval Workflows

Customize your approval process to fit your team. Set up single or multi-stage approvals for vacation and other absences so that every request gets the right approvals without delays.

Managerial Oversights

Give managers full oversight of team schedules. Assign one or multiple managers per employee so they can track vacation allocations, manage overlapping requests, and log absences when needed.

Enjoy Seamless and Transparent Online Overtime Tracking for All

One-Click Overtime Approvals

Approving overtime just got easier. With Timebutler, managers can review requests anytime and approve them right from their inbox. You decide if overtime logs go live instantly or need a sign-off first.

Comprehensive Overtime Overviews

Keep everyone in the loop on overtime balances. Employees get their own user accounts for recording extra hours and can check their overtime balance anytime — no more back-and-forth with HR.
