The panel's verdict
Kelio, Bodet Software's time tracking and attendance suite, is strongest at time capture, scored 6 to 8: in-house-manufactured terminals rated IP65 and IK08 operate from -15°C to 50°C, store events through an outage, sync standalone via USB, and allow per-employee real-time or retrospective declaration from PC or smartphone. Absence and planning follows at a uniform 6, with entitlement calculated automatically from contract, collective agreement and seniority, multi-level approvals and a coverage team calendar. The floor is working time law at 4 — compliance alerts are generic and the pages give no public information on the German recording duty or on daily-maximum, rest-period and retention rules — alongside sovereignty at 2-3, where we found no public information on hosting region, contracting entity or subprocessors; terminals made in France and a CNIL mention are origin signals, not a documented data path. Payroll export and project and billing sit at 5-6, held back by unnamed payroll systems and no public rate or invoice detail. No substantive disagreements were computed. Prices are not published; the only commercial step is a free, no-obligation demonstration.
Speaks for it
- Terminals designed and manufactured in-house, rated IP65 and IK08 for -15°C to 50°C environments, store events during outages and sync standalone via USB.
- Real-time or retrospective declaration is configurable per employee across PC, smartphone and touchscreen, with smartphone badging and geolocated clocking for mobile staff.
- Leave entitlement and remaining leave calculate automatically from contract, collective agreement and seniority, with configurable multi-level approvals and a team calendar showing shift, project and service-time coverage.
- Kelio Paylink transfers variable payroll items and employee data automatically to more than 160 payroll packages with no re-entry, over email or FTP for outsourced payroll.
- Optional three-level activity clocking with cost centres feeds per-project reporting of hours, overtime and break times, with totals written back to the named ERP Exact.
Held against it
- Working time law scores a uniform 4: alerts are generic and we found no public information on the German recording duty, daily-maximum or rest-period checks, or a retention period.
- Sovereignty scores 2-3: we found no public information on hosting region, contracting entity or subprocessors, with terminals made in France and a CNIL mention as origin signals only.
- Traceability with time-stamped history is documented for absences only; we found no public information on a correction workflow or audit trail for time entries.
- None of the more than 160 compatible payroll systems is named, and we found no public information on night, Sunday and holiday surcharges or a lock step before transmission.
- We found no public information on rate cards, a billable flag or an invoice-ready export, so the billing half rests on the Exact handoff.
Best for
- You run mixed site, office and mobile crews and need hardware rated for cold rooms, 50°C heat and high-pressure cleaning that keeps capturing through outages.
- Your heaviest administrative load is absence management, with entitlement driven by contract, collective agreement and seniority and multi-level approvals to route.
- You already create projects in Exact and want hours clocked in Kelio to flow back as project totals.
- You hand payroll to an external bureau or in-house team and want an automatic export with no re-entry.
Avoid if
- You must demonstrate German working-time compliance to an inspector — ask the vendor: the public pages we read do not show it
- You bill time directly out of the recording tool and need rates, a billable flag or an invoice-ready export before committing.
- Your works council must approve employee monitoring before rollout: geolocation is marketed to check that declarations are accurate, and we found no public information on who reads location data or on its limits.

Capture in the real workplace
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
How time actually gets recorded across the workforces a buyer has — desk staff, field and site crews, shift and deskless workers — and what happens when the network is not there.
0 — One browser timer and nothing else; anyone away from a desk records nothing.
3 — Web plus a mobile app, but no offline capture, no shared terminal, and corrections are an admin task rather than a workflow.
5 — Web, mobile and at least one shared capture point (kiosk, terminal or badge), with offline capture that syncs, and a correction workflow with approval.
8 — Several capture paths including hardware terminals or badge readers, reliable offline handling, GPS or geofenced check-in where the vendor states its limits, and bulk correction with an audit trail of who changed what.
10 — Capture fits the workforce rather than the reverse: desk, deskless, field and shift models all first-class, offline as a designed state rather than a failure mode, and every correction attributable, reasoned and reversible.
The Operations Lead
This is the part that fits my workforce: robust badge terminals rated for cold rooms and high-pressure cleaning, smartphone badging for short-term staff, PC or phone declaration for the office, geolocated clocking for mobile crews, and terminals that keep storing events through an outage and can sync standalone via USB. What holds it back is corrections: we found no public information on bulk correction or an audit trail showing who changed a time entry, and the stated geolocation purpose comes without stated limits. 1 2 3
The Payroll Officer
Terminals the vendor designs and builds itself — badge, fingerprint, smartphone virtual badge — cover the site and the field, with events stored during an outage, standalone synchronisation by USB, retrospective declaration from PC or smartphone, and geolocation for mobile crews. I found no public information on a correction workflow for time entries with an attributable audit trail, nor on the limits of the geolocation check, so I stop short of the top band. 2 3 6
The Works Council Advocate
The hardware story is genuinely strong: terminals built by the vendor itself, events stored when an outage occurs, standalone synchronisation by USB, and a virtual terminal on workstation, smartphone or touchscreen with real-time and retrospective declaration modes configurable per employee. But geolocating mobile staff "to check that their declarations are accurate" is marketed as verification, and I found no public information on what the location data stores, who can read an individual's day, or whether the tracking can be switched off — the same platform also lets managers "view people's movements" and "track everyone present", which is a system that watches more than it measures. I also found no public information on a correction workflow showing who changed a time entry and why, so the capture paths are first-class while the answers a works council needs before approval are absent. 1 2 3
The Agency Owner
Hardware terminals with badge, fingerprint and smartphone badging, a virtual terminal on PC or phone, retrospective declaration mode, and outage storage with standalone USB sync cover desk, site and mobile crews well. Geolocation clocking is offered without stated limits, and I found no public information on a bulk correction workflow with a change trail for clockings, only for absences. 1 2 3 6
The Field Supervisor
This is what I look for first: the vendor designs and manufactures its own terminals rated IP65 and IK08, running from -15°C to 50°C, that store clockings during an outage and can run standalone with USB synchronisation, badging by DESFire card, fingerprint, code or a phone as virtual badge. Desk and field staff get a virtual terminal on PC or smartphone in real-time or retrospective declaration mode configured per employee, with geolocation for mobile crews and individual or grouped validation by managers. What keeps it off the top rung: we found no public information stating the geolocation's limits, and the change history the vendor publishes covers absence records rather than corrections to time entries. 1 2 3 4
The Skeptic
Terminals designed and manufactured in-house with offline event storage and standalone USB sync, smartphone badging, geolocation of mobile staff, and per-employee real-time or retrospective declaration across PC and smartphone — offline is designed-in rather than a failure mode. We found no public information on a correction workflow with an audit trail for time entries (the traceability evidence covers absences only), nor on the stated limits of geolocation. 1 2 3 4 6
Working-time law & audit record
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
Whether the record satisfies the German recording duty (BAG 2022, § 3 ArbSchG) and the ArbZG rules around it — breaks, maximum hours, rest periods, retention — and whether it survives being inspected.
0 — Hours are summed and nothing else; no break handling, no limits, no retention statement.
3 — Break deduction exists but is a flat rule; no daily maximum or rest-period checks, and no stated retention period.
5 — Configurable break rules, warnings on the 8/10-hour daily maximum and the 11-hour rest period, and per-employee reports covering the recording duty.
8 — The ArbZG rules are modelled rather than approximated: break and rest enforcement with documented exceptions, overtime and time-account rules, the two-year retention handled by the system, and an export built for an inspection.
10 — The vendor treats the record as evidence: tamper-evident entries with full change history, retention and deletion executed per statute, documented handling of on-call, standby and travel time, and published guidance mapping features to the ArbZG sections they serve.
The Operations Lead
Break tracking, overtime and part-time management, generic legal-compliance alerts, audit archiving and configurable rule sets for different countries are shown, plus statutory rest-period declaration for fixed-rate staff. But we found no public information on daily maximum-hour or eleven-hour rest checks, no retention period, and no mapping of features to the German recording duty — and that silence is exactly what I would be asked about in an inspection. 1 2 4
The Payroll Officer
Breaks are recorded, statutory rest periods can be declared for executives, overtime and flexible schedules are managed, and HR data is secured for audits — but I found no public information on daily maximum-hour or rest-period checks, on a stated retention period, or on an export framed for an inspection. The compliance alerts are named without any rule they enforce, which is thin cover when the inspector arrives. 1 2 4
The Works Council Advocate
Breaks are tracked, fixed-rate executives can declare their statutory rest periods, and the pages mention "integrated alerts to guarantee legal and internal compliance" and "secured archiving of HR data in case of audits" — but I found no public information on the German recording duty, ArbZG daily-maximum or rest-period checks, or any stated retention period. Change traceability is documented for absences only, and I found no public information on tamper-evidence or change history for the time entries themselves. A record I cannot see surviving an inspection is a record I cannot recommend approving. 2 4 5
The Agency Owner
Break tracking, statutory rest-period declaration for fixed-rate staff, generic compliance alerts and audit archiving exist, with rule sets configurable for different countries. I found no public information on daily maximum or rest-period warnings, retention periods, or anything addressing the German recording duty, so this floor is thin for a German inspection. 2 4 5
The Field Supervisor
Breaks are tracked, fixed-rate staff can declare worked hours and their statutory rest periods, and there are integrated compliance alerts plus secured archiving of HR data for audits. But we found no public information on configurable break-rule enforcement, warnings on daily maximum hours or the 11-hour rest period, a stated retention period, or any guidance mapping features to the German recording duty. 1 2 4 5
The Skeptic
Break tracking, rest-period declaration for fixed-rate executives, overtime and time-account management, and generic "integrated alerts to guarantee legal and internal compliance" are shown, but no page names the German recording duty or the working-time-act rules it rests on. We found no public information on configurable break rules, daily-maximum or rest-period checks, a stated retention period, or tamper-evident entries; secured archiving "in case of audits" comes with no period attached. 1 2 4
Absence & shift planning
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
Vacation, sickness and the shift or duty roster — the half of attendance that decides whether the time data means anything.
0 — No absence handling; vacation lives in a separate calendar or spreadsheet.
3 — Vacation requests with approval, but entitlement is manual, carry-over is not handled and there is no rostering.
5 — Automatic entitlement and carry-over, sickness recording, an absence calendar, and basic shift planning with availability.
8 — Public-holiday calendars per location, pro-rata entitlement, substitution and swap workflows, shift templates with qualification and rest-period checks, and coverage warnings before publication.
10 — Planning and recording are one system: rosters that respect statutory rest and the works agreement, absence that reflows the plan automatically, and forecast-versus-actual reporting a team lead can act on.
The Operations Lead
Entitlement calculated automatically from contract, collective agreement and seniority with remaining-leave handling, multi-stage configurable approval routes, a team calendar showing shift coverage, absenteeism reporting and a combined view of planned versus actual absences are all evidenced. We found no public information on substitution or swap workflows, qualification or rest checks in the roster, or per-location public-holiday calendars, so the rostering depth that decides my duty roster is unproven. 4 5
The Payroll Officer
Entitlement is calculated automatically from contract, collective agreement and seniority, remaining leave is carried and updated in real time, approval routes are multi-stage and configurable, return-to-work rules and sickness absence are handled, and a team calendar shows coverage for shifts and service times. I found no public information on substitution or swap workflows, pro-rata entitlement, or per-location public-holiday calendars. 4 5 6
The Works Council Advocate
Absence is clearly the vendor's home ground: entitlement calculated automatically from contract, collective agreement and seniority, remaining leave carried over, multi-stage configurable approval paths, return-to-work rules, overlap and negative-balance alerts, and a team calendar showing whether shifts, projects and service times are covered. Sickness and absences reconcile against the time record for a complete planned-versus-actual picture. I found no public information on substitution or swap workflows, qualification checks on rosters, or public-holiday calendars per location. 4 5 6
The Agency Owner
Automatic entitlement and carry-over calculation against contract, collective agreement and seniority, multi-level approvals, overlap and balance alerts, and a team calendar showing availability for shifts and service times are all evidenced, alongside a planning module with planned-versus-actual views. I found no public information on substitution or swap workflows, per-location public-holiday calendars, pro-rata entitlement, or coverage warnings before publication. 4 5 6
The Field Supervisor
Leave entitlement and carry-over calculate automatically from contract, collective agreement and seniority, approvals run through configurable multi-level workflows with overlap and negative-balance alerts, and the team calendar shows whether shifts, projects and service times are covered — with a planning module that compares planned against actual hours. We found no public information on per-location public-holiday calendars, pro-rata entitlement, or substitution and swap workflows in the roster. 4 5 6
The Skeptic
Automatic entitlement from contract, collective agreement and seniority, automatic remaining-leave calculation, sickness with return-to-work rules, a team calendar showing shift and service-time coverage, and multi-level configurable approval paths are all evidenced, with a planning module alongside. We found no public information on public-holiday calendars per location, pro-rata entitlement, substitution or swap workflows, or qualification and rest-period checks in rostering. 1 4 5 6
Project, cost-centre & billing
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
Whether recorded time can carry the allocation an agency, workshop or professional-services firm needs — project, task, cost centre, billable status — through to an invoice or a client report.
0 — Attendance only; no project, task or cost-centre dimension at all.
3 — A free-text note or a single project field, with no rates, no billable flag and no per-project reporting.
5 — Projects and tasks with a billable flag and per-project reports, plus a rate per person or per project.
8 — Multi-level structure (client, project, task, cost centre), rate cards by person, role and project, budget tracking with warnings, and an invoice-ready export.
10 — Time becomes revenue without re-entry: approval before billing, rate rules that survive a rate change mid-project, client-facing reports, and a maintained handoff into named accounting or invoicing systems.
The Operations Lead
Task, project and client levels with cost centres, three-level activity clocking, per-project reporting of hours, overtime and breaks, automatic cost calculations per task, project or client, budget-versus-actual comparison, and project totals written back to Exact give my workshop the allocation it needs. But we found no public information on rates, billable flags or an invoice-ready export, so the path from recorded hours to revenue is not evidenced. 2 3 6
The Payroll Officer
Hours carry a three-level activity structure with cost centres, automatic cost calculation per task, project or client, budget-versus-actual reporting, and project totals written back into a named ERP — the allocation is real, not a free-text note. But I found no public information on rates or rate cards, a billable flag, or an invoice-ready output, so the time stops short of becoming revenue. 2 3 6
The Works Council Advocate
Time lands on the project ledger: three-level activity clocking, activities and cost centres, hours per project, client or assignment, per-project reports on total hours, overtime and breaks, and a budget-versus-actual comparison to steer projects proactively. Automatic cost calculations per task, project or client, plus totals written back to the named ERP Exact, give a genuine allocation path. I found no public information on rates, a billable flag or an invoice-ready export, so the billing half rests on the ERP handoff alone. 2 3 6
The Agency Owner
Multi-level activity clocking with cost centres, automatic cost calculation per task, project and client, per-project reporting with overtime and break times, budget-versus-actual insight and a named Exact ERP round-trip for project totals are real strengths. I found no public information on rate cards, a billable flag or an invoice-ready export — without rates I cannot turn these hours into an invoice. 2 3 6
The Field Supervisor
Time can be clocked against three levels of activity with cost centres, reported per project or client including overtime and break times, compared budget against actual, and written back to Exact where the project was created — a real round trip, not a spreadsheet. We found no public information on rate cards per person or role, a billable flag, approval before billing, or an invoice-ready export. 1 2 3 6
The Skeptic
Hours per project, client or assignment, cost centres, optional three-level activity clocking, per-project reports of hours, overtime and break times, budget-versus-actual insight, and a described round-trip with the Exact ERP are evidenced. We found no public information on a billable flag, rate cards by person or role, or an invoice-ready export; "automatic cost calculations" are stated with no rate detail behind them. 2 3 6
Payroll handoff
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
How the recorded month reaches payroll — DATEV, Lohn und Gehalt, an in-house system or the tax adviser — and how much of it is automated rather than retyped.
0 — No payroll path stated; the month leaves as a spreadsheet someone retypes.
3 — Generic CSV said to be usable for payroll, with no named system, no defined format and no handling of surcharges.
5 — A named payroll integration or a documented export format for at least one major system, covering hours, absences and overtime.
8 — Vendor-maintained integration with a named provider, covering night, Sunday and holiday surcharges, time accounts and mid-month changes, with a lock step before transmission.
10 — Payroll is designed for, not exported to: several named systems maintained, an auditable approval and lock, retro handling for corrections after the close, and the tax adviser given their own scoped access.
The Operations Lead
Kelio Paylink transfers variable payroll items automatically to more than 160 payroll packages with no re-entry, covering absences and attendance, with multi-company support and monthly statements for payroll processing. Not a single payroll system is named anywhere, though, and we found no public information on night, Sunday or holiday surcharges, a lock step before transmission, or retro corrections after the close. 4 6 8
The Payroll Officer
Kelio Paylink transfers payroll variables and employee data automatically into more than 160 payroll packages with no re-entry, and monthly statements can be drawn for the payroll run — a designed handoff, not a CSV someone retypes. Still, I found no public information on night, Sunday and holiday surcharges, mid-month changes, retro corrections after the close, or a lock and approval step before transmission. 4 6 8
The Works Council Advocate
More than 160 payroll packages are named as reachable through Kelio Paylink, with payroll variables and employee data transferred automatically as ASCII files with no re-entry, email or FTP channels for outsourced payroll, rights configurable per person, and monthly statements extractable for payroll processing. The captured pages give a count rather than a single named German provider such as DATEV. I found no public information on night, Sunday and holiday surcharges, a lock and approval step before transmission, or retro handling after the close. 4 6 8
The Agency Owner
Kelio Paylink moves variable payroll items and employee data automatically to more than 160 payroll packages with no re-entry, including multi-company setups and email or FTP transfer for outsourced payroll. I found no public information on surcharge handling, a lock or approval step before transmission, or corrections after the close, and none of the compatible systems is named. 4 6 8
The Field Supervisor
Kelio Paylink moves variable payroll items and employee data automatically in a payroll-compatible ASCII format to more than 160 payroll packages with no re-entry, and monthly statements can be extracted for payroll — with rights configurable per employee typology. We found no public information on any named payroll system, night/Sunday/holiday surcharge handling, a lock step before transmission, or retro corrections after the close. 4 6 8
The Skeptic
Kelio Paylink is claimed compatible with more than 160 payroll packages, transferring variable payroll items and employee data as ASCII files automatically without re-entry, with monthly statements and email or FTP channels for outsourced payroll. We found no public information naming any payroll system a buyer could verify, nor on night, Sunday and holiday surcharges, time-account transfer, or any lock or approval step before transmission. 4 6 8
European sovereignty
panel opinion
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
Where the data lives, who the contracting entity is, who the subprocessors are, and whether that is documented rather than assumed. Independently sourced by the sovereignty pipeline; scored here as this buyer weighs it.
0 — Non-EU vendor and contracting entity, hosting region unstated or non-EU, subprocessors not named.
3 — EU hosting offered as an option, but the contracting entity is non-EU or the subprocessor list is absent.
5 — EU hosting as standard and an EU contracting entity, but the subprocessor chain includes non-EU providers without an explained safeguard.
8 — EU or DACH hosting with a named data-centre provider, EU contracting entity, full subprocessor list published, and any non-EU processing named with its legal basis.
10 — Sovereign end to end and evidenced: vendor, entity, hosting and every subprocessor in the EU, data-centre certification published, and an on-premises or private-cloud option for buyers who need it.
The Operations Lead
The vendor group presents itself as French, with terminals made in France and a reference to the French data protection authority, which is some comfort. But we found no public information on hosting region, the contracting entity for my jurisdiction, or any subprocessor list — for a buyer weighing this, close to nothing is documented where it counts. 3 5
The Payroll Officer
The pages show a European house — terminals made in France, the French data protection authority named, offices across six European countries — but that is as far as it goes. I found no public information on the hosting region, the contracting entity, or any subprocessor, so I cannot reconcile who actually holds the data. 3 5
The Works Council Advocate
The sovereignty record came back empty: I found no public information on hosting region, contracting entity or subprocessors, so where our employees' time data would live is not documented on these pages. What is visible is national colour — terminals made in France, a group presence across Belgium, France, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Spain and the United Kingdom, and a mention of the French data protection authority CNIL — which is reassurance of origin, not a documented data path. For a body that co-determines time recording, a data path known only by inference is not something we can approve. 3 5
The Agency Owner
Terminals made in France with the French data protection authority referenced, and presence listed across several European countries, are reassuring signals, and the software is offered as SaaS. I found no public information on hosting region, contracting entity or subprocessors. 2 3 5
The Field Supervisor
The vendor reads as European — terminals made in France, a CNIL authorisation mention, presence in Belgium, France, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Spain and the UK — but the sovereignty attributes carry nothing on record. We found no public information on hosting region, the contracting entity for the cloud service, or a subprocessor list. 2 3 5
The Skeptic
No sovereignty attributes are on record: we found no public information on the hosting region of the SaaS offer, the contracting entity, or any subprocessor list. Terminals are made in France and the French data protection authority is mentioned, which hints at origin but documents neither where the data lives nor who processes it. 2 3 5
Pricing transparency
not rated — the vendor publishes no price
Show reasoningHide reasoning
How this is scored
Whether a buyer can compute the real annual invoice for their headcount — including terminals, modules and minimums — from public pages alone.
0 — No public prices at all; every tier is a sales conversation.
3 — A per-user headline exists, but hardware, modules or a minimum seat count are unpriced or unmentioned.
5 — Per-user prices public for the main tiers with the billing period stated, but at least one commonly needed piece (terminal hardware, planning module, payroll export) sits in an unpriced bundle.
8 — Every tier and module priced publicly with per-user maths, billing period, minimum term and VAT treatment stated; only genuinely custom work lacks a number.
10 — Complete price computability: a calculator or table producing the annual invoice for a given headcount and module selection, including hardware, setup and renewal terms.
The Operations Lead
The only commercial step on any captured page is a free, no-obligation demonstration; we found no public information on per-user prices, module costs or terminal pricing. For 200 heads I cannot compute even a rough annual invoice from what is published. 1 6
The Payroll Officer
Across every captured page the only commercial act offered is a free, no-obligation demonstration. I found no public prices at all — no per-user figure, no module price, no term — leaving a buyer nothing to compute an annual invoice from. 1 6
The Works Council Advocate
Not a single price appears in the captured material; every path on these pages leads to a free, no-obligation demonstration or a personal demonstration request. I found no public information on tiers, per-user rates, terminal hardware costs, modules or minimum terms. A buyer cannot compute an annual invoice from these pages, and a works council cannot weigh the cost of what it is being asked to approve. 1 6
The Agency Owner
Every path ends in a free, non-binding demonstration and I found no public prices at all — no per-user figure, no module prices, no hardware prices. I cannot even begin to compute an annual invoice for my headcount. 1 6
The Field Supervisor
Everything on the captured pages ends in an invitation to request a free, no-obligation demonstration. We found no public prices for any tier, module, or the clocking terminals, so no buyer can compute an annual invoice from these pages alone. 1 6
The Skeptic
The only commercial step anywhere in the captured pages is a free, no-obligation demonstration, while terminals are specified down to the relay and battery without any price. We found no public information on per-user prices, tier structure, hardware costs, billing period or minimum terms, so no part of an annual invoice can be computed from public pages. 1 3 6
Questions about Kelio
Is Kelio European?
Not determined: the vendor’s pages as captured do not say where Kelio is based.
Where does Kelio store data?
Not stated on the vendor’s pages as of 13 Oct 2026.
Does Kelio have a free plan?
Not stated on the vendor’s pages as of 13 Oct 2026.
What are the best alternatives to Kelio?
As of 21 Oct 2026, the panel rates TimeTac (3.5/5), clockodo (3/5) and ZEP (3/5) highest among the other 25 Time Tracking & Attendance products evaluated. Ratings that look equal are rounded to half stars; the order uses the unrounded rating, then the name. The highest-rated European alternative is TimeTac (EU-Made). Ratings are the AI panel’s opinion, formed from public evidence: how scores are made. The full list, with European products first: Kelio alternatives.
Where this could be wrong
- Evidence ages. The oldest capture behind this page is from 13 Oct 2026. Vendors change pricing and policies without notice; every fact reflects its source as of the capture date shown in the registry.
- AI can misread a source. Extraction and judgement are automated; a citation guarantees traceability, not infallibility. If something here is wrong, say so — no account needed, every report is decided within 5 business days, and accepted corrections are published.
What we left out
A claim that does not survive our checks costs us the claim, not the page. This is what was taken off this one.
- We could not confirm any pricing information on the vendor’s own pages as captured, so this page shows none rather than a statement we cannot stand behind. Know more? Tell us
