Not knowing how to utilize time spent on work is an issue MSPs face on daily basis. As the name states, Time Doctor essentially helps with fixing any time-related issues a company might have. The tool itself is not only limited to MSPs but can also be used by other business types to great effects.
How exactly does it work?
Time Doctor functions as an all-in-one tool that manages, informs and tracks time-related tasks to tackle work efficiency and productivity. It’s a tool filled with many great features that are convincing especially to businesses that prioritize work efficiency, like MSPs. What features are available in Time Doctor?
Ease of Management
Being able to manage and focus on tasks in one app will make things much easier as compared to relying on a multitude of apps that might clutter workflow. With Time Doctor, you can easily manage and even set tasks (similar to that of a calendar) all in one app. With this you can:
· Eliminate the need of relying on different management apps.
The less apps or methods you rely to stay updated on everything, the better. This saves time, effort, as well as prevent any confusions within the team.
· Have a reliable source of time-related information.
This saves the hassle of inaccurate time entries done especially if team members use different methods to keep track of tasks done.
· Have streamlined information presented to you.
There are no secret loopholes you have to go through to get the data you need with time related tasks. All reports are on the app itself and is visible (we’ll explain this one better).
Clarity and Accountability
Tasks not being done are very rampant and can lead to a huge downtime when it comes to work efficiency. Time Doctor hopes to solve this by giving users the option to monitor how work is done and that time being paid for is time well spent. This is evident through:
· Time Doctor’s screen capture.
Time Doctor has the option to capture whatever is on the screen with the added benefit of also tracking mouse and keyboard activity. This ensures companies that have adapted to remote work will still be able to emulate work ethics similar to that in person.
· Have a log of all work done.
With Time Doctor’s screen capture ability (which is also visible to users), this can show users how much time they utilized for work and what they can do to improve or maintain good work habits.
· Clarity of utilization
Time Doctor’s dashboard gives users reports on work utilization. These can vary from company to company and is a great indicator if work is indeed being done and utilization is always high.
Automation
Time Doctor utilizes automation in many ways. These can be through automated timesheets, using bots for automating more features, as well as screen captures – these are never done without the user’s permission. Automation in Time Doctor benefits users massively since:
· It gives owners the freedom of time.
Time spent having to do things manually and check in on everyone if they are indeed utilizing work hours. This alone can cut losses and promote better work ethics.
· It caters to different businesses.
Time Doctor can be made to cater to different business models through the use of bots. A company like MSPbots makes Time Doctor even more beneficial by adding an extra layer of automation.
· It eliminates mundane tasks.
Clocking in and out has never been easier. Why rely on pesky timesheets that can be easily edited by anyone? With Time Doctor, this ensures that employees that are in – actually work.
· It tackles work inactivity
Time Doctor has an ingenious way of tackling inactivity at work. As screencasts are being done, it also tackles the issue of being inactive or “making it seem like you’re busy”. This is all in connection with the mouse, keyboard, and any kind of activity being done.
Reports and Data
Reports on time and effort being spent for work will only matter if said resources are backed up with facts and accurate data. With Time Doctor, reports can be easily generated and be reviewed by the entire team to show performance indicators, utilization, and work efficiency. With this, MSPs can tackle:
Integrating Payroll
What most employees (and even business owners) hate is inaccurate payrolls and the hassle of relying on different means to distribute pay. It’s very frustrating to receive your pay only to realize the time sheets that were used were inaccurate and you were “robbed” of your time. With Time Doctor, you can:
Any business that isn’t utilizing Time Doctor as their time management app is possibly operating on a loss. Time is one of the most precious resources not only for small to medium businesses but even major ones that have set the framework for how work should be done. Automation makes things more exciting as it eliminates the need to do boring tasks and can leave you with more time for important matters, and more time for yourself.
