Though it is customizable, there are certain things we have been unable to change. For the price, it's definitely still a good solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's keeping everything stored centrally, it's helping transparency between us and our staff, and it allows us to generate time-saving reports as opposed to doing manual data entry. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ScheduleFlex?

I like the viewability of Shiftboard. It is very easy to see who is on and when. I also love the ability to change views from a list view, to hour, day, week, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ScheduleFlex?

Shiftboard will sign you out often which can be irritating when working longer days tracking agents. If an agent picks up a shift, Shiftboard does not automatically update if it is within a certain amount of time; you may have to refresh the page, which can interrupt productivity and current views to see real-time time adjustments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Noticing which agents are servicing that should not be, making sure agents that are scheduled, as well as agents that are late. This is very effective in time management and time tracking with real-time analyzing campaigns. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ScheduleFlex?

Shiftboard allows us to house over 500 of our workers in one place, and gives them accounts so that they can log in to update their information themselves. This takes the task of keeping profiles up to date off of us. It also allows the workers to apply for shifts and be approved or not, which removes any discrepancy and confusion that used to occur when we used basic email for all of our confirmations. Customer support is speedy and the interface is attractive, as is the app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ScheduleFlex?

Though we have paid for a custom solution, we found that some aspects of Shiftboard are not customizable and so we have had to come up with some workarounds. Examples of this would be ability to customize or remove fields for users contact information. The app seems to work well for the end users but less so for admins who have limited functionality for administrative tasks via the app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering ScheduleFlex:

They were very helpful in pre-implementation discussion so there is no reason not to contact them and set up a trial Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Using Shiftboard allows us to stop sending hundreds or thousands of emails each term, which can become a mess in our inboxes and sometimes get lost in the inboxes of our less tech-savvy workers. Since Shiftboard is online, everyone can log in and see the same things. We waste way less time on data entry and keeping up various spreadsheets, which allows us to spend more time on more important tasks. The rating function is also proving very helpful to see who the best workers are at a glance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ScheduleFlex?

I like that you can manage every employee AND every position with a deployment all while using one platform. Additionally, the software houses personal information for employees thus making it easier to notify someone of a schedule or shift change. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ScheduleFlex?

At some times, it gets easy to have "too many hands" in the cookie jar. There are ways to prevent and limit certain users from having administrative privileges, but, that also limits their ability to be productive. This is only a small downside that is very easy to get over/fix. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering ScheduleFlex:

Very strongly consider this product! By far the easiest to use and most productive software for managing people! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It solves the problem that we used to face with not having proper visibility on our staff. From this software, you can view and make changes to anyone within your staff. Complete oversight! The biggest benefit that stems from this system is that we are now able to see a raw view of all of our open/needed coverage for our security deployment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ScheduleFlex?

Shiftboard makes me job as a staffing and recruiting coordinator so much easier. I can see all of my staff in one place and the software is easy to learn. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ScheduleFlex?

I don’t like that I can’t narrow the employee search screen by work locations. I would like to be able to create a search for all employees in one office. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

My staff can clock in, see schedules and make changes either in the office or on their mobile devices in the field. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ScheduleFlex?

Shiftboard is an extremely user friendly platform. It makes it easy to get online and grab hours for the week for those of you who are self-schedulers such as myself. Along with this, being able to trade away my hours the day of my shift without much issue is an absolutely brilliant option. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ScheduleFlex?

One thing I dislike about Shiftboard is how tedious it can be to schedule large shifts. If I'm scheduling for a ten hour day and the shifts are listed for half of an hour each, it can be rough to individually schedule twenty shifts for four days a week - that's 80 total selections, confirmations, and reservations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering ScheduleFlex:

Please, consider this product. If you're going to be using this product to schedule your employees, offer larger chunks of scheduling for the employees. While flexibility is great, ease of use is far more valuable. I'd without a doubt suggest using Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Shiftboard makes it easy for me to schedule myself, which I appreciate! There's no set clock for it - if I forget, I can log in at 3:00 AM and take care of the next week. Without this, I'd be struggling to find my hours - however, with it, I jump on, take care of scheduling and jump off in under five minutes. Furthermore, the service offers an inter-employee trading platform, which further increases the ease of access for the employees using it and helps to keep shifts entirely covered!

What do you like best about ScheduleFlex?

I like that Shiftboard has the ability to cross reference staff's accounts across multiple sites so it won't let you staff someone if they are already booked with another company. I also really like the bulk change function, it makes changing events or multiple positions a breeze. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ScheduleFlex?

There really are not many cons about Shiftboard, but the one thing I dislike is the filebox. Once you upload a document to a specific team, it is very cumbersome to then copy the link and actually post it on the shift itself. I would really like to see, once you upload a file, a drop down box appear and you can click a shift assigned to that to team to upload the document. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

The number one benefit we have seen is that we have been to reduce the number of double bookings and call outs. Every time we have a call our or no show to an event, we are charged a penalty fee by our clients. Staff now have the accessibility to review their full schedule on one screen which has drastically reduced the number of no shows. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ScheduleFlex?

I really enjoy the freedom creating my own schedule and keeping track of shifts with Shiftboard. It also sends a confirmation email of shifts selected as well as reminder emails. There is also a feature under Account> Hours to select a date range and it will tell you how many hours you have scheduled. I also really like the built in Tradeboard for employees to exchange or transfer shifts between themselves. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ScheduleFlex?

I don't like that sometimes the reminder emails come super early like days in advance. It would be more practical for them to come possibly 3 days in advance and then again 24 hours before the start of your shift. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Employee scheduling and trading of shifts. It takes the scheduling responsibility out of managements hands and places it on the employee's shoulder saving both time and resources. Employees are held responsible for selecting the right number of hours to meet expectations

Shifts are released to be selected from in tier's based upon employee performance in several area's. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
