Read this page as one judge. Each weighs the same scores by what they care about.

The Works Council Advocate

Weighted verdict

Has co-determination over how working time is recorded (BetrVG §87 (1) 6) and will not approve a system that watches more than it measures. Asks what GPS actually stores, who can read an individual's day, what is logged and what can be switched off. Reads "productivity insights" as a warning.

Same scores as the panel view — this lens weights them the way this judge cares.

Capture in the real workplace

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 — Not a time-recording tool; working time cannot be captured in the product.

3 — Clocking in and out or a timer in the browser or an app, with manual entries; offline use, shared terminals and corrections are basic or not described.

5 — Web and mobile apps for clocking in and out, a shared kiosk, terminal or badge option or offline capture that syncs, and corrections requested by the employee and approved by a manager.

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.

Report an error

The Works Council Advocate

Capture reaches field crews, not just the desk: web and browser clocking, iOS and Android apps, a shared kiosk, timeclock terminals and Bluetooth beacons are all named, and entries made offline auto-sync once connectivity returns. Corrections run through timesheet approval with a full audit log of every action, filterable by period, user and team, and the pages state plainly there is no keystroke logging, no screenshots and no mouse-movement detection — a tool that measures rather than watches. We found no public information on GPS or geofenced check-in and its limits, nor on what a Bluetooth beacon actually stores, which is the first question co-determination would ask. 1 3 4 6 10

Working-time law & audit record

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 — A project or task timer that keeps no attendance record of working time (start, end, breaks).

3 — Start, end and break times recorded per day with a working-time report per employee; ArbZG checks and retention are basic or not described.

5 — Start, end and breaks recorded for the recording duty (BAG 2022 or ArbZG named), automatic break rules, warnings on the daily maximum or the rest period, and overtime balances.

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, a change log on entries, 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.

Report an error

The Works Council Advocate

Clock-in events, tracked lunch breaks, weekly target hours with overtime alerts, timesheet locking and an XLS audit log "ready to present to auditors" give a defensible daily record. But the pages frame rounding under the American FLSA 7-minute rule and a 40-hour week, and we found no public information naming the German recording duty, on automatic break rules, on rest-period enforcement, or on retention beyond deletion within 90 days after account closure. For our inspection duties under the ArbZG, the statutory layer is undocumented on the captured pages. 2 4 5 6 8 10

Absence & shift planning

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 — Neither absence handling nor shift planning is part of the product.

3 — Vacation requests with approval and an absence calendar, or a basic shift plan; entitlement rules and rostering are basic or not described.

5 — Absence management with entitlement balances, sickness recording and an absence calendar, plus shift or duty planning with templates or employee availability.

8 — Public-holiday calendars per location, pro-rata entitlement and carry-over, 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.

Report an error

The Works Council Advocate

Vacation requests with an approval hierarchy, vacation quotas, sick-leave and maternity-leave types and a combined calendar of absences and shifts are documented. Yet the vendor's own help page describes tracking absences by creating a project titled 'Absences' and adding the leave types as tasks — a workaround rather than an entitlement engine — and the fuller absence planning is presented as belonging to the sister product All Hours. We found no public information on holiday calendars per location, carry-over rules, substitution or swap workflows, or rest checks in the roster. 4 6 7

Project, cost-centre & billing

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; the product records time without any project, task or cost-centre dimension.

3 — Time booked to projects or clients with a report per project; rates and billable status are basic or not described.

5 — Projects and tasks with a billable flag, hourly rates, reports per project and client, and an export or integration toward invoicing.

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.

Report an error

The Works Council Advocate

This is the product's spine and it is thorough: clients, projects, tasks and tags in a four-level hierarchy, custom fields for cost-centre or job codes, hourly rates per person, task and project with labour cost kept separate from billing rates, budgets in hours, billable amount or cost with percentage alerts, expenses with receipts, and numbered invoices created straight from logged hours. What holds it back is the handoff: accounting is described generically as 'popular accounting systems', Zapier and API, and we found no public information on rate rules surviving a mid-project rate change. 1 4 8 9 10

Payroll handoff

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 — Payroll is outside the product: it records client or project time only and prepares nothing for payroll.

3 — An export (CSV, Excel or PDF) of hours and absences for the payroll office; named formats and surcharges are basic or not described.

5 — A named payroll integration or a documented export format for at least one major system (e.g. DATEV LODAS/Lohn und Gehalt), 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.

Report an error

The Works Council Advocate

Hours, absences and overtime export as PDF or XLS "ready for payroll processing", the payroll report covers paid and unpaid hours, overtime and lunch breaks, an API claims to reach "any payroll provider", and time logs can be locked per period before anything leaves. But we found no public information naming a payroll system — DATEV or any other — on surcharge export for night, Sunday and holiday work, or on mid-month changes and retro corrections; the app calculates night-shift bonuses in its shift detection, yet we found no public information on a payroll handoff that carries them. 4 6 10

European sovereignty

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. Dimensions not proven either way are unknown, not non-European.

0 — Vendor, contracting entity and hosting shown to be outside the EU, and no data processing agreement offered.

3 — A privacy policy and a data processing agreement exist and one European element is proven (an EU contracting entity or representative, or EU hosting as an option); the rest of the chain is not stated.

5 — An EU contracting entity and EU hosting stated, with a data processing agreement; the subprocessor list is not published in full or includes non-EU providers without a stated safeguard.

8 — EU or DACH hosting with a named data-centre provider, EU contracting entity, the full subprocessor list published with locations, 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.

Report an error

The Works Council Advocate

The company stands in the EU — headquarters in Ljubljana, Slovenia, and "based in the EU" for over 30 years — with claimed GDPR compliance, TLS 1.3, ISO 27001/27017/27018 certification and backups several times per hour. But hosting is on Microsoft Azure and we found no public information naming the region, the subprocessor list is available only on request by email, vendor staff can reach customer data over VPN for troubleshooting (restricted, logged, monitored), and we found no public information on a data processing agreement or the actual data residency. For co-determination purposes, the chain behind the word 'Azure' is undocumented. 1 2 5

Pricing transparency not rated — the vendor publishes no price

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 public "from" price per user or one priced tier; how cost scales with modules, hardware or minimum seats is unclear.

5 — Per-user prices public for the main tiers with the billing period stated and the main inclusions given; some pieces (terminal hardware, planning module, payroll export) may be unpriced.

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.

Report an error

The Works Council Advocate

Public pricing amounts to: "My Hours is free for teams of up to 5 users", a 14-day free trial, no credit card needed, API access in every subscription, and teams of 20+ users invited to book a demo. We found no public information on per-user prices, tier names, billing periods, minimum terms, VAT treatment or terminal hardware. A buyer cannot compute a paid annual invoice for a given headcount from these pages. 1 3 4 5 8
