How Hubstaff enables BPO operations
BPOs can outsource global talent and drive better operational efficiency with Hubstaff’s versatile feature set.
Accurate time tracking for global teams
Build time tracking infrastructure for multiple clients and see real-time updates on billable hours, PTO, and productivity data directly from one dashboard. Automatically convert tracked time to detailed timesheets, invoices, and reports.
Productivity tracking your clients can trust
See real-time updates on activity levels to see how work gets done. Configure visibility settings such as optional screenshots, and customizable reporting dashboards. BPOs can share this data directly with clients for audits, to support transparency, reduce disputes, and align with client expectations around productivity monitoring.
Time-off and leave management
With Hubstaff, you can manage attendance tracking effortlessly. Easily track employee time off, sick leave, and PTO, and customize time tracking for breaks, meals, and more. This helps BPOs manage distributed contractor networks, enforce attendance expectations, and meet SLAs across global operations.
Global payroll workflows
Use approved tracked hours as clean inputs for payroll systems like Deel, Wise, or internal tools. BPOs can rely on Hubstaff for time validation and approvals, rate adjustments, and complex payments on a global scale.
Turn tracked time into operational decisions
Empower operations leaders to act on data with workforce analytics that capture productivity benchmarks, work time classifications, unusual activity patterns, and team utilization trends.
Custom reporting and API access
Export time, activity, schedules, and PTO data or pull it via API into internal dashboards, HR systems, or client portals. Several enterprise BPOs use Hubstaff's API to power proprietary dashboards and payroll pipelines.
Operational infrastructure that scales from 50 to 500 seats
Replace manual admin with operational workflows
BPOs using Hubstaff automate time validation, reporting, and productivity measurement that would otherwise require additional staff. In large outsourcing operations, this level of automation can replace the work of 20+ full-time roles dedicated to admin and oversight.
Scale without increasing overhead at the same rate
Hubstaff helps BPOs grow without increasing operational complexity by automating time tracking, reporting, and productivity oversight. Affordable Staff, an outsourcing provider, increased headcount by 166% while maintaining visibility and operational efficiency with Hubstaff.
