The beauty of the report Job Scheduler is that…

Employee Timesheet Software vs. Free Excel Timesheets

Are spreadsheets still used for timesheets? In 2009, we published a press release saying that financial benefits can be gained from subscribing to an out-of-the-box solution for timesheet entry instead of using Excel spreadsheets.  Would you believe it when I say that it still holds true today?
