## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Quick, easy Check in & out. Scrap time cards. Accurate to the second
*by N***E on July 13, 2011*

Finger print recognition works satisfactorily. We have one member of staff who has very hard to read finger prints and she, in stead, punches in with user number and password. Download of data to USB card provides a tab delimited text file which imports easily into a spreadsheet - which is important to me as I use a Mac and prefer not to use the supplied Timecard software for a PC.The user manual is written in limited Oriental origin type English which is hard to read and hard to understand. Fortunately, the menu logic of the machine is fairly intuitive and easy to understand. The logical functioning of the machine works as expected. A bit more menu warning and instruction could be helpful. e.g. there is no warning that the memory of the machine is erased after a data download is complete. Also, the filename created seems to be the same as that created the previous time which means that unless you have renamed the file or moved it to some other folder/directory, it could be overwritten by the next data dump.Next suggested improvements for the product would be for:1 the time to be set automatically to broadcast atomic time clock standard time.2 Access to the time clock data from anywhere on the internet by Mac or PC.Finally, my staff find it much easier and quicker to clock in and out than they did with time cards. No problems with aligning cards and over-stamped times. So far we have had no missed IN/OUT punched times with the finger printing, compared to the 2 to 3 regularly missed when we used the punch cards.I have one employee who works in two capacities at different pay rates for each job performed. She uses a finger on the right hand for one function and a finger on the left hand for the other function. Works fine.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lonestar LS838 - Great Item...
*by K***N on April 18, 2012*

I must say, this is a great item if you are either upgrading to a new time clock or just wanted one for your business. It was not to difficult to set up once you get started and follow the instructions. Not a plug and play item. So far, its running smoothly, notice an improvement on time attendance the very next day after this item was installed. So, from an employers stand point, this is great... not so much so for the employee.

### ⭐ worst product!
*by A***E on January 17, 2014*

I bought this time clock in July, after only 6 month it died. We are only 10 employees! Very little use. I'll never buy this again. The software is horrible and hard to get the data. Save yourself money, time and energy. Buy any other one!
