Software comparison: ZEP vs askDante

Time recording, break times

Both ZEP Clock and askDante offer an easy way to record working times. This is possible with both programmes on the desktop and/or via mobile Apps for time recording possible. Both products also offer the option of recording the time via a terminal. The ZEP Time recording terminal does not require high acquisition costs compared to askDante, but can be rented at a low monthly fee of EUR 15. The break times can also be configured according to individual requirements. In addition, the legally prescribed break times are already stored as standard in ZEP Clock. While askDante offers a limited evaluation of working times, ZEP Clock enables a comprehensive analysis that provides valuable insights.

Holiday management

The Holiday management is also available for ZEP Clock and askDante. It is already included in askDante and can be added to ZEP Clock if required. A public holiday calendar is available in both systems, which is adapted to the different national regulations. In addition to standard evaluations, a holiday account is available in both solutions, whereby ZEP Clock also offers an individual overtime account for each employee and stands out by offering the option of managing holiday requests through an approval process. askDante only allows holiday requests to be submitted.

Customisable design

With its customisable design, ZEP Clock offers the option of using the company's own colours and logos in order to integrate the corporate identity into the time recording system. 

Target group

ZEP Clock and askDante are both designed for organisations looking for a cost-effective and simple time and attendance solution. However, while both options appeal to similar target groups, ZEP Clock offers additional value through its advanced features and flexible modules, making it particularly attractive for companies that require a customisable solution.

User-friendliness

Both platforms are extremely user-friendly with a minimalist and easy-to-understand user interface.

Summary

ZEP Clock has the edge over askDante in several aspects. It offers a cost-effective rental option for the Time recording terminal compared to the relatively high acquisition costs of the askDante terminals. The standardisation of statutory break times and the option of comprehensive working time analysis are further advantages. In terms of holiday management, ZEP Clock also offers individual overtime accounts and an approval process for holiday requests, which askDante does not offer. The customisable design also enables seamless integration of the corporate identity. While both solutions are suitable for small and medium-sized companies, ZEP Clock is particularly attractive for companies that need a customisable solution with advanced features. Need more? If you want to work on a customer- and project-specific basis instead of just recording working hours, you are well equipped with ZEP Compact and ZEP Professional on the right side.
