Director of Business Development Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 9/13/2021 "Great Scheduling Solution" 5/5 What do you like best about Sling? I was looking for a very low-cost solution to manage our company's schedule and found Sling to fit our needs perfectly. It is very user-friendly, both for management to create and manage the schedule and for the staff to use it. I have used both the free and premium versions. For our company, even the free version was perfectly capable of what we needed it for; however, the premium version does offer some useful upgrades such as tracking labour costs, a built-in timeclock so employees may log in and out, a messaging app and the ability to create task templates that can be attached to shifts. You also have access to a variety of staffing reports. With the free version, you are able to build lists of employees, positions, locations and groups and use them to populate the schedule. You can also create shift templates to save the time of selecting start and end times each time a shift is created. Multiple work locations and positions can be added for any given employee, which helps when employees have job roles that fluctuate and who may work either in office or from home. The employees receive email notifications when new shifts are created, modified or removed and they can view their schedule from PC or Mobile devices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Sling? I am no longer able to create re-occuring or repeat shifts from the free version. I am assuming that this is now a premium feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Sling: I definitely recommend trying this program as it's affordable, effective, and easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Sling solving and how is that benefiting you? Sling allows us meet our scheduling requirements with minimal effort, and also makes it very easy for the staff to check their schedules and be notified when changes are made. The program is intuitive and when there is a scheduling conflict, a pop-up will be displayed to notify you of it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ease of use. I can create long-term shift plans for my team much quicker than I could the product I was using previously. Additionally, it´s very fairly priced and much cheaper than what I was using before. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Sling? I don´t really have any dislikes. It does its job, and it does it well enough. My team´s schedule is quite simple and I´m not using any of the advanced features like the tasks so I can´t rate those. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Sling solving and how is that benefiting you? I´m keeping track of shift schedules and attendance. I then use the system to pull reports for salary calculations. It´s quick and easy to set up a shift schedule, make changes and pull reports. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like group messaging and private messaging. The creating the schedule and releasing shifts is very user friendly Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Sling?

Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Sling solving and how is that benefiting you? Timesheets and getting payroll completed quickly.

Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Sling? That is doesn't sync with Xero or our Payroll. Could have more layers of accessibility.
