Voice Xpress gives an employee an alternate method of checking in to a shift by calling a cell phone number, as opposed to using their check in and out slider in the Team Xpress app.

Although Voice Xpress isn't part of the Team Xpress app, it is still an important component of it.

What is a Voice Xpress number?

A Voice Xpress number gives your employees an alternate method of any of the following clocking methods:

  • Clocking in/out of shifts

  • Starting and ending breaks

  • Performing safety checks


Why can Voice Xpress be useful for employees?

Using Voice Xpress in your Celayix platform can be very beneficial for employees for the following reasons:

  • The employees' cell phone doesn't have data for Team Xpress app use

  • There is no cell data/coverage at a particular site, but there is an on premise phone they can use for check in and out

  • The employees' cell phone doesn't have the capability to download the Team Xpress app

If any of the above apply to your employee's and their current situation, then we recommend that you Contact Support to enquire about how a Voice Xpress number could be of value to your company.
