Recommendations to others considering Sling:
The benefit of sling as it is is there is little to no cost, if you are willing to spend though, When I Work is a much better app, with easier to use formats and a way to implement your schedule into your phone/google calendar instead of having to check the app all the time.

What problems is Sling solving and how is that benefiting you?
before we started using Sling we had our schedule done on a google spreadsheet, which took some time to load and quite some effort to read, and there was no way to update it when you would want to switch shifts with someone, you would just have to show up. There is a feature where you can access a contact book of co-workers numbers and e-mails, so you can contact them outside the app (as a number of us refuse to check the messages because of the hassle). And we have recently begun to utilize the newsletter function for general posts for the entire team, but there is no notification to tell you to read the board so you once again have to resort to messages.
