"Shipping is incredibly costly for what you get. Ordered rfid cards and I had to purchase more than I needed just to feel like I wasn't getting totally ripped off."

“Dear Customer,

Our shipping prices are calculated using UPS shipping pricing tiers. Usually when our customers order RFID cards they order them at the same time that they are to purchase a time clock, in which the cost is very reasonable. Our shipping prices for a device ranges from $15-$20 for one device, if you were to order RFID cards at the time that you purchase a device the shipping prices change by cents on the dollar. We appreciate your feedback however, and would like to thank you for providing us with your feedback and we will definitely take it into consideration.

Thanks,
Easy Clocking Customer Service”

"Ernesto, Mark, Carlos, and Miguel are by far the best support team for any product I have ever needed support for. They are thoroughly knowledgable, efficient, and courteous to the utmost degree. As much as I detest having to resolve technical difficulties over the phone and online concerning electric merchandise, these gentlemen each made the process rather pleasant and quick. Please recognize Ernesto, Mark, Carlos, and Miguel as a valuable asset to your team."

"i used excel to calculate time manually before, wasted lots of time on it! We got easy clocking and it is a great timesaver! It helps to fit your time tracking needs best. Assigning shifts to employees help save lots of money-5-10 min every day/every employee ad up to $$$$. They have videos on youtube to help you with learning how to use, it is pretty easy, and they got live chat on their website. Thechnical support guy was helpful and friendly. One note: your free 30 day trial starts from time you register the clock. make sure you take advantage of it as it is very helpful. good product"

"1. The report would be easier to read if all four punches per day were on one line. (our other time clock was easy to read.)
2. The report should indicate the shift number next to the employee.
3. User should be able to name the Shift and name should be on report next to the employee name.
4. When a report is modified, uer should be able to obtain original punch ins.
5. Manual punch ins should round off.
6. Rep should let you finish a sentence and not talk over user.
7. Support should be free as it was with our previous time clock.

“Dear Customer,

We've received your review and greatly appreciate you taking the time to let us know how you felt about the product. We have reviewed your suggestions and have sent them over to our product development team for further review, and consideration for any updates we may have in the near future. Our products, software and technical support have been used in thousands of applications across a very broad variety of industries and is made to fit the needs of a broad spectrum of customers, so some of the suggestions you've made may work with your current installation but wouldn't be ideal for some of our other customers.

Some of the features you've requested for the software can be programmed into a custom version of our software and is usually available at an additional charge upon request but these are usually options for clients needing custom installations. Also, we did see that you mentioned that you believe support should be "Free" due to the fact that other companies provide free support, but as with any company each policy is different, our company values and prides itself in providing an excellent product with exceptional support that ensures that we do our best to fix and address any issue our customer may be having with the hardware or software side of our products. Other companies, do provide free support but they also subsidize the cost of the hardware and charge monthly fees in order to provide this type of service, we on the other hand do not.

As for our representative who was helping you we sincerely apologize if they were a bit quick to jump to a conclusion or an answer for your particular case as in no way is this acceptable, we will be taking this specific case and bringing it to the attention of our Customer Service manager and ensuring that we address this issue.

Thank you for the feedback, we will continue to improve our solutions based on the information you've provided us!

Thank You,
EasyClocking”

"This hardware, software, and tech support is no less than outstanding. Their support staff (Carlos) knows the product and zips you to a solution very quickly.

We've had our unit for approx 3 years with only very minor issues which have always been resolved quickly on the first call."

"BEWARE OF SELLER (EASY CLOCKING)

Customer service is terrible at this company. There were numerous issues that Easy Clocking claimed they would resolve, but failed at. The most important aspect was them not honoring their "30 Day Guarantee Money Back". This whole fiasco started when we first purchased our machine in July 2012. Until now (March 2013) we still have not received a full refund on our items. This is what they state on their website (I am sure it will change shortly after this posting):

--------------------
Limited Warranty
Easy Clocking hardware products purchased in the United States are warranted from the initial date of purchase to be free of defects in material and workmanship for a period of one year, provided the product remains unmodified and is operated under normal and proper conditions, with no physical damage.

30 Day Money Back Guarantee
All products purchased directly from Easy Clocking come with a 30-day return policy. Within 30 days of receipt of an order, you may return products purchased directly from Easy Clocking for a refund minus a 15% restocking fee.

Please contact our customer service department for a Return Merchandise Authorization Number. RMA Numbers will not be issued on products purchased more than 30 days prior. We will not accept any shipments without a valid RMA number clearly labeled on the outside of the box.

There is a restocking fee associated with all returns with the request of a refund; this is no more than a 15% charge. Shipping fees in this case are non-refundable as well and are to be handled solely by the customer. Defective items are handled on a case-to-case basis. This charge is to cover the processing fees, handling fees, and costs associated with the placement, processing and execution of the order. All costs incurred regarding packages subject to return shipping will be handled by the customer. We strongly request that you certify all shipments and obtain a tracking number, as Easy Clocking is not responsible for shipments previous to acceptance and arrival at our offices.

---------------------

We first purchased our time card machine in July 2012. We had been working with their Support Team (who I might add are extremely unfriendly) on issues regarding the hardware and software on numerous occasions. In terms of the hardware, the EC500 internal battery had a problem keeping the current date/time on the machine. Every day, the date and time would reset itself leaving the "scheduling" part of the system useless. Support was unable to fix the problem even after sending it back 2 times (over the course of 2 months). Although the fix was free, it cost us shipping and weeks of not having a machine to use. We also made sure that they would honor the initial 30 day period since the machine was experiencing difficulties that were beyond our control. They agreed and extended the initial 30 days. At the same time. we found that their Standard Software was not as robust as we wanted. We had a number of rules we wanted to set and a lady named Priscilla had confirmed that the Advanced Software at $299.99 would be able to do everything we needed. However upon receiving it, we quickly learned it was not able to accomplish much of what she confirmed. We required two rules: vacation days renewed on a person's anniversary and additional days renewed on a separate day...the software could only apply 1 rule and that was it. Realizing they were unable to correct the hardware and the software was not able to apply our policies, we immediately contact them for a refund (which was well within the extended 30 days). Priscilla stated that a full refund would be issued for everything (about $1000) once they received all parts (hardware, accessories, software, etc...). We even confirmed that with her several days later when we called back to double confirm someone had signed and received the hardware/software by FedEx. By then, it was end-September / beg-October. A month passed and we did not see a credit on our charge card. We followed up with emails/calls and everything was pushed to Priscilla. We left messages and emails and nothing was returned. This continued for the next couple of weeks with everyone transferring us to Priscilla and getting her voicemail. Six weeks after returning the unit, we finally got a hold of Priscilla, she said that the refund had been issued and was slated to be returned to us shortly. And upon asking her why she was not responding to our messages and emails, she stated in an irritated tone that, "she gets thousands of emails and she cannot get through everyone at the same time." This was mid-November. We then asked exactly when we would see the refund and she said that the credit card refund would be made by the end of the week (this was the week of November 16). Of course, we waited. And waited. And waited. Thinking it might have been the holidays that delayed it, we waited until beg-December to call and follow up.

When we called beg-December, the same sick cycle started again. Phone calls, emails, messages left for Priscilla, no calls returned. Finally after a week of trying to get a hold of Priscilla (after some maneuvering), she advised that there was a glitch in the system and "many refunds were not issued and that [they] would need to issue a refund check" to us. Hindsight, when she said "many," it should have clued me in already. I was very reluctant to let her go, but decided perhaps there was indeed a glitch. She advised us on December 11 that the refund check would be coming to us in the mail. And thus, we waited. And waited. And waited. Again...thinking it might have been the holidays that delayed it, we waited until after to call and follow up.

The new year finally passed and we were just fed up. Again, the phone calls, emails, messages left for Priscilla were not answered or returned. Everyone was very vague as to Priscilla's position at the company, but I finally caught her in the office on January 7, 2013 and she advised that the check had already been sent out January 2, 2013. When asked about her previous response in December about the check being sent out December 11, she advised that only the owner of the company could sign for checks. So for almost a month I suppose no bills or payments were made by Easy Clocking to utilities or vendors. Uh-huh.

A week later, we finally received a refund, however it was only a partial refund. We were given a refund for the EC500 for the amount of $649.98, but not for the Advanced Software for $299.99. Again, we called Priscilla and that was when she advised us that the Advanced Software was non-refundable even though she told us it was when the software did not perform like how she said it would. She basically advised us at that point that she would check and if a refund was due, we would get a check and if we did not hear from her, then we would not get a refund. We followed up again in a few days and were advised by Jose that all software was now non-refundable because once a license is used, it cannot be redone. He refused to patch us through to Priscilla when we wanted to clear the situation up since she was the one who advised us that everything would be refunded at the time of our return.

As you can see, it is March already and guess what, we have not heard from them. So for all those who are interested in Easy Clocking, BEWARE. You will see both good reviews and bad reviews for them, however I just wanted to share my story to help others make a decision. There are countless other companies out there that provide both the hardware and software for biometric timecards. We finally went with another company and they have been wonderful. The cost is similar to Easy Clocking with lower priced and higher priced models, but most importantly, their Customer Service and Support team have been great. They are willing to walk you through setups step by step and trouble shoot any problem (big or small). You will NOT get this from Easy Clocking. All they care about is selling you the product and that is it. Even when you call for support, the techs sound more condescending than helpful.

But for everyone out there, BEWARE of EASY CLOCKING.


***********UPDATE 04/24/13************

I have since replied back to RMA with the receipts in question. Let's see if I get a reply from them.

***********UPDATE 04/30/13************

Was surprised to receive email from Easy Clocking stating ... "They have since then made an exception to this rule and mailed out a full refund check by mail to your address that we had on file. We hope this resolution suits you well and you kindly revisit your review of your experience of our company. I am very grateful for Easy Clocking's reply and willingness to resolve the matter. I'm also thankful for ResellerRating's help.

***********UPDATE 05/15/13************

Still waiting for check."
