“Can you hear me now?” was an iconic Verizon television ad in the early 2000s, but for our commercial cleaning customer Keith in Arizona, it became a real problem. He picked up a large building to clean in a rural area with no cell service, and his employees couldn’t clock in with our app.

Keith was rattled. He didn’t want to return to inaccurate handwritten timesheets and the uncertainty of whether employees showed up to work.

Fortunately, Keith didn’t have to fall back into the dark ages. We have a solution if the building has landline phones. Employees can call a dedicated toll-free number to clock in and out. The simple 3-step process takes 17 seconds or less.

Additionally, the job site landline number can be linked to the job code, eliminating step 3 and requiring the employee to clock in from that phone.

Chronotek creates a time card with the phone’s caller ID, confirming the employee was on-site when clocking in and out.

Keith’s problem is solved, and he still has control.

Let’s count how having employees call from landline phones gives you control of your business.

Your perfect solution to the lack of cell service is landline phones. Here’s an article that explains how employees call to clock in.
