It costs $96.53 a year. - You could make: Time tracking, time off and reports: an app builder makes these well. - You could not: Clocking in from a phone, checked against where and when. - You could not: A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page. - You could not: It is priced for each person, which means accounts and billing for a team. - You could not: It plugs into other products, Personio and Slack among them, and has an API. - You could not: What a company asks for before it lets staff use something: roles and permissions.
