"Useful app for list checking and accountability"

5/5

What do you like best about Jolt?

The app records who has completed which task and requires a log-in to verify that employee. It also can scan barcodes, QR codes, and photo-verify depending on what you would like done. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Jolt?

App constantly needs to be reloaded and can be glitchy causing the employee to have to exit the app and reopen to pick-up where they left off. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Jolt solving and how is that benefiting you?

Accountability is a large problem in our company, this app allows us to see what has or has not been done in a shift and address it with specific people instead of the entire staff because of not knowing who was responsible for that task. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Wonderful business tool that has so many options"

5/5

What do you like best about Jolt?

Jolt has streamlined our employee operations from the daily timeclock function, payroll, employee messaging, employee checklist, file and video libraries and scheduler - everything to run our multi-dimensional business is in one location. The reports are also fantastic and have proven easy to run and useful with my directors above me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Jolt?

Entering employee scheduling information is a bit challenging. Employee shift preferences, vacation time, etc... is a bit clunky compared to other scheduling heavy software such as When to Work, When We Work, etc... I hope they will improve this feature since I have a large number of employees with irregular shift work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Jolt:

Jolt is an application worth exploring for your business. We have found countless opportunities to utilize Jolt where in the past we relied on other software applications - this has put everything in one place and has saved us money as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Jolt solving and how is that benefiting you?

We utilize Jolt for scheduling, payroll, timeclock and employee education. Having everything in one place has been helpful in minimizing extra time importing and converting clock-ins, payroll hours, etc. One of the most helpful features is the hourly employee cost breakdown. I like knowing exactly how much I'm paying out vs. bringing in. The library feature has been very helpful in creating a database for employees. We also utilize their lists feature.

We have benefited from a clear channel of communications between managers and team members that does not rely on memory, post-it notes, or incidental scheduling. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Jolt saves me time and money."

5/5

What do you like best about Jolt?

I have temperature sensors in all of my freezers and I get alerted when they are out of range. This has saved my inventory from melting many times. I am often able to call into the store and start troubleshooting the issue before any of the employees have even noticed that there is a problem. And the alerts are fully customizable.

Managing schedules, time off requests, shift swaps, etc are very easy to manage in Jolt. And all of the owners and mangers have access to this even though some of the owners live out of state. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Jolt?

Not all features are available from the android app. But it is not a major concern because I can still access everything from a web browser on my phone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Jolt solving and how is that benefiting you?

Jolt allows my and the other owners to keep a pulse on our stores even though we are not in the stores often. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
