The Bizneo HR alternative without HR modules you will never use
Bizneo HR is a capable modular suite: time tracking, shifts, recruiting, performance, training and an employee portal, each as a module. HoraTrack is not modular because it does not need to be. It does time records on site, with per-site geofencing and an offline app, and everything is included.
A small, complete product for one concrete problem, instead of one corner of a large suite.
If you have an HR department that will use recruiting, performance reviews and training, Bizneo HR gives you a modular architecture HoraTrack does not even try to cover. If the only thing you need from that catalogue is time tracking, and for people who work on site, you are buying a suite to use one corner of it — and that corner was not designed for the workface.
Why construction companies look for a Bizneo HR alternative
You buy a suite and use one module
The modular model makes sense when you switch several areas on. If only time tracking matters to you, you end up with an oversized platform, with its configuration and its learning curve, solving a very specific need.
Time tracking is horizontal by design
A module that has to serve offices, shops, factories and construction sites cannot be optimised for any of them. The site, with its perimeter, its rotation and its missing coverage, is always the edge case.
Configuration is a project
Permissions, roles, approval flows, calendars and policies per group. All of it has to be defined before anybody clocks in. On site you need to start this week, not when the parameterisation is finished.
Site reports are not in the module
Hours booked to each site, the day’s exceptions and a PDF ready for an inspection are production reports, not HR reports. You end up building them yourself in a spreadsheet.
Bizneo HR and HoraTrack, point by point
| What you need on site | Bizneo HR | HoraTrack |
|---|---|---|
| Product focus | Modular HR suite: time tracking, shifts, recruiting, performance | Vertical time-record product for companies that work on site |
| Commercial model | Per module: you switch on and pay for the areas you need | A single product with every site feature included |
| Unit of organisation | Employee, department and workplace | Site: address, geofencing radius, status, assigned crew and booked hours |
| Location validation | Multi-device clock-in inside the time tracking module | Per-site geofencing: every entry is checked against the radius and flagged if it falls outside |
| Hours per site | HR reports per employee, department and period | Reports per site, worker or period, with hours already booked to each site |
| Use in the field | An employee portal shared across every module | One screen and one button: the worker sees their site and clocks in |
| No signal | Built for environments with a stable connection | The app records time and GPS with no coverage and syncs when it returns |
| Working-time records | Meets working-time recording duties for general headcount | Meets them with a timestamp, a location and a GPS status on every entry |
| Getting started | Parameterisation per module before going live | Create the site, set the radius on the map, invite the crew. Live the same day |

When to switch and when not to
Stay with Bizneo HR if…
- You are switching on several modules: recruiting, performance, training or an employee portal.
- You have an HR department with formalised processes to maintain.
- You need org charts, approval flows and policies per employee group.
- Your workforce is large and mixed, and site work is only part of it.
Switch to HoraTrack if…
- Out of the whole HR catalogue you only need time tracking, and for site workers.
- You want to start this week without a parameterisation project first.
- You need to verify physical presence on each site, not just record a time.
- You want hours booked per site directly, without building reports in a spreadsheet.
- You would rather have a product your site manager understands without being trained.
What moving from Bizneo HR looks like
We scope it
We look at which modules you genuinely use. If it is only time tracking, the migration is complete; if you use more, HoraTrack covers just the site time records.
We export the history
Entries from the previous period go out to a spreadsheet and are archived for as long as the retention rules require.
We create the sites
Each workplace becomes a site with an address, a geofencing radius on the map, a status and an assigned crew.
We start with a pilot site
We run one site for a week, check that entries and reports reconcile, and then roll out to the rest.
