Guided Starting Point · Where Does It Hurt?
Start with what’s slowing your team down.
You don’t have to memorize 11 service names to figure out if we can help. Choose the challenge closest to your week and see what changes.
Scenario 01 · Field Ops & Payroll
Hours, receipt photos, and GPS punches flow seamlessly from field phones into your back office.
Field crews enter their own hours and reimbursable expenses (with receipt photos) from iOS, Android, or Chrome — or supervisors enter time for an entire crew at once. Payroll admins review entries in an Excel-style FIT Workstation and import directly into Sage 100 Contractor with the click of a button.
- Automatic sync with active Sage 100 Contractor jobs, cost codes & employees
- Optional Sign-Off add-on workflow before back-office payroll review
- GPS start/stop punches that never overwrite payroll or job-cost hours
Connected Syscon PracticesCompose stack in Blueprint
“Instead of spending time manually entering timesheets, we now spend that time reviewing and analyzing. Payroll is available in a timelier manner with fewer errors.”

In Their Words
Forty years at this. We’d better be good.
Read all 39 unedited testimonials“My favorite thing about Syscon is the staff! Without question, Syscon hires very knowledgeable employees, and it has always been a good experience working with Syscon. As a business owner, it has been a relief to be working with Syscon — knowing their expertise in cyber security, all our I.T., and we even have an employee participating in Syscon's peer group. We started over 23 years ago with Larry and Cathy Wendt. We have never considered another company to assist us with our I.T.”
