How does testing of Goodtime work?

Here you can apply for a test account. The online time tracking is available in the specified test period with full functionality without limitations. Testing is free and without any obligation. After the trial period your time tracing account simply expires. There is no termination necessary. We are of course happy, if you like Goodtime and decide for the paid version after testing. Please understand that the trial version can only be applied once.

Will the test data be taken over to the paid version?

All data and settings of the test account will be taken over - thus all existing data will be conserved. You can continue to work seamlessly with the paid version.

Can I use the time tracking system as a time clock?

To use the time tracking as a substitute for a time clock, there is a time clock for 'punch in' and 'punch out' on the main page for each user. If it is not desirable that a user can edit his time stamps, please uncheck the field Permit to edit own time entries in the Roles and Permissions in the users menu. The user then can view his punched time stamps on the labor time list, but can not edit it subsequently or add additional entries. If desired, the access to the time tracking system can be restricted on the company's own computer. Goodtime is as safe and reliable as a conventional time clock.

How are the costs calculated?

The costs for Goodtime timekeeping and project tracking are calculated per user per month. The number of users is calculated separately for each month. The date of counting the number of active users is chosen randomly on any day in the month from organizational and technical reasons. So you never pay more than the respective maximum number of users for a particular month.

In the user view you can set a user from status active to the status closed, e.g. if the user does not use the time recording for a longer period of time or leaves the company. "Closed" users are not passed to account.

The first month will not be charged if the time tracking account is created after the 1th of this month. So if you create an account after the 1th of the month, the remaining first month is for free for you. The last month is always charged.

How can I pay?

What VAT rate is used?

For business customers within the EU and for countries outside the EU, the Austrian VAT rate is applied.

For electronically delivered services for non-business-customers within the EU the value-added tax rate of the customer's country of origin is applied.

What are "closed" users?

When users are deleted, all the employee's time entries are also deleted. This is undesirable in most cases. Instead, we recommend setting the employee to User status: closed instead. He then behaves as if he had been deleted and the user's time entries are still available (e.g. in the statistics). Closed employees will not be charged. The employee can be changed back to the user status active at any time:

Adminstration -> Users -> Select User to Modify -> User status ...
