## Reviews

### "Overall experience has been positive." — 5.0/5

> **Doris** | *14 July 2017* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like that my employees can easily and quickly keep me informed of any changes or request that they have via text or email.  That changes or work schedules are updated in real time. That off site employees can clock in. That the program is very easy to set up and use. That the support has always been excellent. This software has had a significant impact on my ability to manage my staff in a way that is efficient for them and our office.
> 
> **Cons**: That some functions such as editing some things such as vacation  request and schedule changes are still a bit tedious. Hopefully this will be improved with update.
> 
> Good management.

### "The smartest and best employee scheduling app, with punch-clock" — 5.0/5

> **Alexander** | *12 June 2018* | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Super-easy to use and roll out new schedules for the employees and plan vacations. Also allowing punch-clock to be limited to the workplaces Wifi or location to punch in. Easy for employees to switch time-scheludes.
> 
> **Cons**: Hope that in the future, that the schedules can be  integrated to my iCal Calendar and to our web-based cashierapp, Front Systems
> 
> Saving a lot of time

### "Employee Scheduling Software" — 3.0/5

> **Karen** | *20 February 2020* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Ease of use, employee set up, interactive communication with employees, visual information that is calendar based, employees can be divided into groups by job skills so that shifts can be offered to the people with the correct skills for the job.
> 
> **Cons**: A year long contract that you are locked into with no warning that it is up for renewal.  Some forms of communication (but not all) with employees is cumbersome and makes more work for the administrators.
> 
> I used the software more or less successfully for one year but then realized that not all of my employees were able to manage with it.  Unfortunately, I was not able to get everyone on board with using it properly.  Also, it wasn't really set up to handle the type of work (tours) I was offering to my employees.  It would be much better for strictly shift work where each shift was stand alone.  My tours can be multi day which didn't connect too well together.
