Built for your industry
Time-tracking software for growth
While Buddy Punch offers a simple time-tracking solution with payroll integrations, it lacks the flexibility and advanced features needed for construction and field service businesses. If you’re looking for a powerful, industry-specific solution that grows with your team, Buddy Punch falls short.
ClockShark is designed for construction and field service companies' unique needs, providing advanced GPS tracking, seamless mobile usability—including offline mode—and deep customization options. Unlike Buddy Punch, which locks essential features like scheduling, geofencing, and a kiosk clock behind its Pro plan, ClockShark provides these tools at every plan level—ensuring your business gets what it needs without unnecessary costs.
Most importantly, ClockShark provides faster, more responsive customer support and dedicated change management to help businesses successfully implement and optimize the platform from day one. With a free trial available, you can experience the full power of ClockShark before making a commitment.
To be the best in the business, you need the best software. ClockShark is your partner in growth.
