Gusto Lacks Aggregate Project Time Summary Across Employees
Gusto's time tracking requires managers to manually open each employee's record to see how much time was spent on a given project, with no cross-employee summary or rollup view. For project-based businesses that need to track team hours per project for billing or capacity planning, this creates significant manual overhead. The missing aggregation layer is a straightforward reporting gap.

Similar Problems
surfaced semanticallyGusto Payroll Reporting Cannot Handle Multi-Job Employees
Gusto lacks robust reporting options, particularly for generating reports on employees who hold multiple positions. This gap creates manual work and compliance risk for employers managing complex workforce structures.
Gusto Timesheet Entry Is Slow and the New UI Adds Unnecessary Friction
Employees using Gusto to submit timesheets report that the process has become significantly slower after recent UI changes. The clunky interface requires more steps and time than necessary to complete a routine task. This friction compounds across payroll cycles, frustrating hourly workers who clock in and out regularly.
Gusto Employees Cannot See Whether Their Timesheets Have Been Approved by Managers
Employees submitting timesheets through Gusto have no visibility into the approval status, leaving them uncertain whether their hours were reviewed before payroll processing. This creates unnecessary anxiety and generates manual follow-up conversations between employees and managers that could be eliminated with a simple status indicator. The absence of approval transparency is a workflow gap in a product designed to streamline payroll.
Payroll Time Tracking UI Makes Break Type Entry Unnecessarily Clunky
Employees using Gusto for time tracking find that entering paid and unpaid breaks requires awkward multi-step inputs that slow daily logging. The distinction between break types is a compliance requirement that the UI handles poorly. This friction compounds daily for hourly workers and affects payroll accuracy.
ClickUp reporting dashboards fail to surface available PTO data
ClickUp's reporting dashboard requires heavy manual configuration and sometimes cannot surface data that clearly exists in the system, such as PTO days per employee. Timesheet views lack streamlining and the app does not reliably recognize available data points for reports.
