Ask HN: Feedback on My Attendance Management System

Hey HN,

There is the software that I have been working on for a long time. I have put up an instance of the software at http://demo.attendmind.com/login username: admin@gmail.com password: 123456

Its still under development so there are parts that are a bit clunky. I am looking for honest feedback right now.

Thanks in advance

P. S. Here is a video of me running through all the features of the software http://blog.attendmind.com/2013/08/99-changes-later-attendmind-preview_4.html

Seems decent. Thoughts:

* Lose the background image. A plain background is fine.

* "You have punched out for the day". Okay? But it's a button, do I press it? What do I do with it?

* Consider not using the term "Stuff", "Company Stuff" -> "Company", "My Stuff" -> "My Attendance"

* Things like attendance tables could probably be more "graphic" rather than boring tables of "Present" or "Not present". Think about coloured squares to indicate attendance or icons.

I agree with andyn on the background image. Plain would work better. Sans-serif font for the tool bar, make that a little larger (and remove 'stuff'). Looks good but keep working at it!
