Attendance tracking for remote teams
When your team works from home or across cities, there is no clock on the wall and no shared start time you can watch. People sign on across different timezones, and a spreadsheet cannot tell you who actually started their day on schedule. Tickin gives remote teams a single, timezone-aware attendance record: everyone clocks in from where they already work, and their on-time status is judged against the office hours you set, so distance stops being a reason attendance goes blind.
One clock, every timezone
Tickin evaluates attendance in your workspace timezone, so it does not matter where a team member is sitting. Office hours, daily working hours, and on-time status are all measured against one shared standard, and the record stays consistent through daylight saving changes. You set the hours once and read attendance the same way for everyone, whether they are down the street or several timezones away.
Office hours and grace, without surveillance
Define your office hours, expected daily working hours, and a grace period that fits how your team actually works. Tickin uses those settings to decide who arrived on time and who was late, so start times are fair and predictable. There is no screenshot surveillance in the core product. Remote attendance is about a clear, agreed standard, not watching people work.
Alerts where the team already works
Late-arrival alerts go straight to Slack or Microsoft Teams, so managers see who has not started without chasing anyone. Alerts fire on working days only, skip public holidays, and send at most one per employee per working day, so the signal stays useful instead of turning into noise. For distributed teams that live in chat, the update arrives in the channel they already have open.
A record you can trust
People clock in from Slack, Microsoft Teams, the browser, or the optional desktop app, whichever suits their setup, and it all lands in one place. Working days are configurable to match your schedule, and admins and team leads review attendance in the web portal. The result is a dependable remote attendance record you can act on, rather than piecing together a picture from scattered messages.
Features that make it work
Frequently asked questions
- How does Tickin handle team members in different timezones?
- Attendance is evaluated in your workspace timezone, so office hours and on-time status use one shared standard for everyone. The record stays consistent across daylight saving transitions, so where a person is located does not change how their attendance is measured.
- Can remote employees clock in without a shared office?
- Yes. People can clock in from Slack, Microsoft Teams, the browser, or the optional desktop app, so there is no physical terminal to visit. Everyone uses whatever they already have open, and their clock-ins flow into the same attendance record.
- How do we know when someone has not started on time?
- Late-arrival alerts are sent to Slack or Microsoft Teams. They fire on working days only, skip public holidays, and send at most one per employee per working day, so managers get a clear heads-up without chasing status updates.
- Does Tickin monitor remote workers with screenshots?
- No. There is no screenshot surveillance in the core product. Remote attendance is based on office hours, a grace period, and clock-ins, so you get a fair on-time record without watching how people work.
- Who can see remote attendance data?
- Admins and team leads review attendance in the web portal. They can see who started on time against the office hours and grace period you configured, with working days set to match your team's schedule.
