Why you should sign up

Timeportal® takes away the time, pain and frustration of your day-to-day employee administration. Most small businesses fail to effectively handle even the most basic human resource processes.

The single most compelling reason to use Timeportal® is:

It will make everyone's day-to-day work life easier and happier.

Business Owners

Ask yourself these five questions:

• do you have an up-to-date policies and procedures document that everyone has read and signed off and everyone knows exactly where to find it?
• do you know, or can you easily find out, all of your employees upcoming vacation?
• does your expense report process operate smoothly and accurately? are expense reports properly reviewed by the correct people and paid on time?
• if you bill for your time, are you tracking all of your time?
• can you easily tell me how much vacation and sick days all of your employees have taken and have left this year?

Timeportal® will help you answer 'yes' to all of these questions and more.

It costs too much

The monthly cost can add up quickly if you have more than a few employees.

To put the price in to perspective, sometimes it helps to consider the other costs associated with an employee. Consider these sample monthly direct costs for one employee with a $30k salary:

• $2500 monthly salary
• $300 benefits
• $500 operating costs (office costs, internet, phone lines)
• $50 capital costs (computer, phone, desk, chair - assume 5 year replacement)

You are only adding an extra $20 to this. Consider some of the costs that Timeportal® can help prevent:

• unapproved or inappropriate expenses
• legal issues related to missing / un-signed policies and procedures
• extra vacation or sick days taken
• vacation conflicts and coverage
• lost billable time

Remember that this service removes any requirement for additional hardware, software, or paper forms that you may already be using. You don't have to worry about the infrastructure or technical support and upgrades are all included!

Can you really put a price on happiness? Get rid of all those paper processes and administrative headaches. Timeportal® will organize your staff in a way that keeps everyone happy and efficient. There is not a small business with employees that will not benefit from Timeportal®.

Guarantee

Costs

When you sign up, your first month is free and then you pay each month, at the end of the month. If you cancel your service because you are not fully satisfied with Timeportal®, you will not be charged for the current month. In other words, you have a two month period in which to try out the system without any cost.

Timeportal® is billed monthly based on the number of employees that are given accounts on the system.

• the first month is free
• tax is based on your province
• you must enter a valid credit card for ongoing automatic billing after the first month
• your credit card will be charged automatically at the end of each month of use
• you can suspend your account any time (by yourself) - which will stop access to the account and stop billing
• you can cancel and delete your account at any time (by yourself) - which will delete all of your data and stop billing
• suspending your account will become active immediately, but you will still be billed for the current month
• canceling your account will take effect immediately and you will not be billed for the current month
• for example, if you open an account on July 15:
  • you will need to enter credit card information before Aug 15 to continue using your account
  • your credit card will be charged on Sep 15 for the time period Aug 15 to Sep 15
  • your credit card will continue to be charged on the 15th of each month afterwards until you cancel or suspend your account
  • if you canceled your account on Sep 14 you would end up not paying anything
• if for any reason you are not completely satisfied with our service, we will cancel and refund you up to one month of fees
• if you have more than 10 employees we might be able to negotiate a fixed rate - please contact us to discuss your options
• if you have more than 10 employees and would prefer not to pay by credit card - please contact us to discuss your options

Privacy

The privacy of your data is very important to you and to us, and we take all reasonable measures to make sure that the system is secure. Our web hosting is located in Canada with a reputable provider. The administration module allows you to do the following tasks yourself:

• download a complete backup of your data any time you want
• delete your account and all data on our servers (it may take up to a month before all backup data is removed - if you need it removed faster - just let us know)

Uptime

The system has been running since 2003 without any significant downtime. Our goal is 100% uptime and most years we accomplish this. We guarantee that the system will not be down for more than 12 hours in any given month, which is about 98% uptime. If we do not meet this guarantee, we will refund 20% of your monthly cost for each day over the 12 hours that the system is unavailable or inoperable. The 12 hours will also include any outages due to maintenance or upgrades which we schedule during the night.
