"A great system!"

What do you like best about MakeShift?

Makeshift is easy to learn and keeps everyone up to date about what is happening. It makes for less miscommunications regarding the schedule. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MakeShift?

Makeshift could benefit from an easier way to put almost like a "sticky note" on a shift to write things like rationale for putting a staff member in a different location than usual. We have a few people with access to our makeshift and it makes it difficult to know if someone else changed something. Also when assigning a shift from a location perspective, it would be helpful to be able to just start typing the staff members name instead of having to scroll through a giant list. Also, it would be helpful to be able to input reoccuring shifts/days off etc. the same way you can in Google calendar. For instance, I have a staff memeber that is off every Wednesday. Rather than going and putting in every single Weds invidually, it would be helpful to put it in once and then have an option like "repeats every week" or something like that.

"Difficult to learn and get used to but over time can be very helpful."
4/5
What do you like best about MakeShift?

The concept of having everyone in my library know where I am at all times. I have a variety of places I can be at during work hours, so making sure everyone knows how to locate me is very helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MakeShift?

How hard it is to create blocks of time and edit. I also do not like that all the blocks are the same color. It would be helpful to seperate the blocks on color. I would love to assign meetings in one color and desk hours in another so it can be even more helpful to everyone visually. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"This has made scheduling easier with different locations and many staff to move around."

What do you like best about MakeShift?

It is very helpful to see who is scheduled for the shifts. The customer service has been very responsive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MakeShift?

If there was a way to get notifications on the makeshiftlive for any changes on makeshift. Color coding options. If there was a way if a staff is putting in their availbility and leaving a note for a different timeframe then what is posted and being able to add that instead of changing the time once on the website as you cant see that in the admins app Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
