What a first week looks like
First week
Pilot with a small group, confirm that route and visit data matches reality, then expand. This keeps change management simple and adoption high.
Efficiency
Find routing inefficiencies and optimize.
Proof
Verify visits and time‑at‑location reliably.
Fairness
Support reviews with consistent evidence.
Visibility
See who is active and where during work hours.
The on‑ground gaps teams face with Deputy
For multi‑site workforce, shifts, and supervisors workflows, reporting is only as good as the data behind it. Here’s what teams usually want to fix when switching from Deputy:
✓
“I need a simple dashboard, not more admin work.”
✓
“We waste time chasing updates on calls and WhatsApp.”
✓
“Attendance is marked, yet site presence is unclear.”
✓
“We struggle to validate time‑on‑site for jobs and visits.”
TeamSpoor focuses on the field layer—so your team gets proof and clarity without extra process overhead.

TeamSpoor vs Deputy: what’s different
A practical comparison focused on what field managers use every day: work‑hours visibility, routes, and visit proof.
| Decision point | TeamSpoor | Deputy |
|---|---|---|
| Setup speed | Lightweight rollout with a fast pilot and simple policies. | Deputy rollout varies based on modules and configuration. |
| Field coaching | Use route/visit signals to improve coverage and performance. | Coaching depends on available field signals and data quality. |
| Privacy controls | Policy‑based tracking that can be limited to work hours. | Approach varies; confirm work‑hours and consent settings. |
| Best fit | Teams that need reliable on‑ground evidence and quick adoption. | Teams that need the broader scope Deputy provides. |
| Manager reporting | Dashboards designed for daily field reviews and exceptions. | Reporting depends on how Deputy is configured. |
| Proof of work | Visit verification + time‑at‑location + route history. | Capabilities depend on Deputy plan and workflow. |

FAQ
Quick answers about work‑hours tracking, routes, and visit proof.
Yes. Route history, time‑at‑location, and visit proof help managers review performance consistently and resolve disputes with a shared record of activity.
TeamSpoor focuses on field execution signals—work‑hours location tracking, route history, and visit verification—so managers can see what’s happening on the ground and act fast.
It depends on what you use Deputy for. TeamSpoor replaces the field visibility layer (location, routes, visits, optional GPS attendance). Many teams keep other systems for billing, HR, or CRM and use TeamSpoor for on‑ground proof.
If connectivity drops temporarily, the app can capture activity and sync when the device reconnects (depending on device settings and policy).
Try TeamSpoor as your Deputy alternative
TeamSpoor keeps the focus on execution: who is active, where they went during work hours, which visits happened, and how routes actually played out.
