Why I would recommend using hubstaff
Why I would recommend using hubstaff Other than the obvious method to track my outsourced staff's time, I encountered a few extremely positive experiences working with this company. 1) I had one outsourced worker that was overbilling me for over a thousand dollars. This person put me in a very stressful situation and even went to my countries consulate to bring up the HR issue stating that I was withholding wages. Without the proof and hubstaff screenshots that I had from that individual (showing them working for other people), this ended the ex-staff from heckling and barring them from opening-up a case. 2) I had a virtual assistant who I assigned directly to review screenshots and keep people on task and give warnings. That was their sole job, so it wasn't tedious and it was cost-effective. You can also integrate it with Asana and make it very task-oriented. 3) It's pricing per the number of staff, so I compared the cost of using a built-in outsourced supplier and tracker (i.e. Upwork) and it was significantly cheaper. Upwork keeps raising prices every year to the point where one month using their service was equivalent to 1 quarter for a staff of about 6 workers. Plus you can choose your own payment merchant and get lower fees on transfers. 4) My company needed to take a pause, and my plan was on annual renewal. When I noticed this on my credit card statement, I contacted support and they refunded the payment even though it was over a week since they billed. They knew I hadn't used it and they gave me no trouble at all during this process. None. I've used other services from major corporations like Salesforce, and those ones tend to screw you over. When you sign the dotted line, and you stop using it and want out, they will sue you (literally). So when you realize it doesn't deliver what it is supposed to and want out, they not only stab you in the back but also give a little twist to make sure they win in the end. But hubstaff refunded first, then asked afterward why. That's what I call a customer-focused company and that's why I'm going out of my way to write this review. Once I'm able to get my company sorted out, I will definitely continue to use hubstaff and use their talent services too. Thank you
