The platform is pretty simple to use but also very comprehensive. I've used lots of these tools in the past but the 'automations' in the platform really enable me to put this component of my business on cruise control. The platform is also really fast and my employees love it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There's not a whole lot to dislike about Zira. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ability to release shifts so that my staff can get automatically notified is great. Then being able to auto-approve or see all the requests sorted by tenure and hours allocated was really helpful for us.

I also really enjoyed some of the extra features that I didn't even think about when initially searching. The communication platform, combined with the automated policies was really cool and saved me maybe 4 hours a week. Now instead of constantly monitoring my staff, I automatically get notified anytime something goes wrong or needs my attention.

I also set it up to notify me when things correct themselves so its really amazing now that it's full set up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Because the platform can do so much it might take a little longer to set up. But you can always set up just the basics and then build more and more policies into Zira. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We use Zira to manage schedule and track time for our hourly employees. It helps us automate the scheduling process by matching our workers’ preferences, and availability to appropriate shift. I love that I can create & publish schedules several weeks in advance, keep track of my employees hours, and automate notifications. It's so convenient, fast to set, and easy to navigate through. Our employees simply clock-in through the mobile app, where they can also check-off tasks and add notes about the shift. I really appreciate the flexibility of Zira’s solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing comes to mind. Perhaps, it would be awesome to be able to pay my workforce through Zira. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The people that work within the company are very friendly and professional, they were on top of any question or concern we ever had. The layout of the website is clean and modern which makes it easy to navigate, even our staff members that aren't technology savvy found it easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The company was just starting up when we started working with them so there were a few bugs but in less than 2 months they had everything tweaked and fixed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I run a small cafe. Zira helps to ease all of the pain points of my business - from communicating with employees, to reminding me of who's working / employee breaks / late employees or no shows, automating schedule creation and more. I've gone from spendings dozens of hours managing the basics of my business to having so much time on my hands to focus on how to grow and improve. Employees love the ease of use - from viewing their schedule on their phone, to getting reminders of shifts, to easily swapping shifts - Zira handles it all. I couldn't recommend a software enough!!

Nothing so far. It would be nice in the future to be able to drag and drop shifts around, but I know this is a feature the Zira team is working on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I own a maintenance company, with hourly janitorial staff. Since our technicians work in-the-field, our key requirements were remote clock-in with geo-fencing capabilities. I chose Zira because they met these requirements and more; it’s an easy to use system for time and attendance. All of my employees have smartphones, so they can clock-in through the Zira mobile app, see their updated schedules, and chat with our managers. Geo-fencing helps us ensure that employees clock-in from the right locations. We also set up automatic notifications, to remind the staff to clock-out or notify managers to find replacements for late shows / no-shows. We’ve experimented with IVR time and attendance (where people call to clock-in), but Zira has been much more powerful and easy to use. Our business now has cleaner record keeping and accountability, and our employees are no longer frustrated by our old system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing at the moment. Zira's support staff have done a fantastic job to responding to all questions and feature requests quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Zira helps me with visibility and tracking of each employee profile - time worked, punctuality, show up rate, and automatically tallys the pay down to the minutes worked. Helped me with employee motivation as I use employee dashboard to discuss performance and goals. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's not easy to edit an ongoing shift. I have to wait for the shift to complete in order to edit it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Our non-profit tends to do things a bit different than your average team. We have lots of policies and rules that need to be monitored at all times. I was pretty much resolved to do it all myself, or put the burden on our managers.

When searching for a scheduling tool, and time tracking app- we came across Zira and saw what the Automated Policies could do. We spent up to 10 hours creating our schedule for the month- that has been reduced drastically. We also spent close to 5 hours per week trying to enforce and track our team rules, that is nearly all handled in Zira now.

So I really do love the flexibility of the platform - to help our team keep operating in the way we want to rather than having to give up our unique ways.

With the Zira portal running time & attendance/ time clock for us that really makes things easy for us, and our staff required no training to figure it out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No issue thus far. I was able to figure out the interface fairly easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We have a traditional culture and our employees aren’t tech savvy, so it was important that the scheduling & time tracking software was easy to use. Zira’s customer service stood out throughout the entire process. The Zira team was very helpful and responsive during our evaluation: they provided personalized demos to help us understand the technology and how it would work for our organization. The implementation process was also top notch: they helped us set up and customize our accounts, so that using Zira was a turn-key operation. We have taken advantage of their training sessions and have been using Zira smoothly ever since. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would love to be able to edit shifts more quickly on the calendar (via drag and drop) - I know the zira team is actively working on this! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The scheduling tool is outstanding. The UI makes it effortless to create, manage, and automatically allocate shifts, which was a huge pain point for my partner's team. I find the insights from the tool extremely useful - we are able to track my workforce performance, costs, and identify gaps very easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish I could pay my workforce directly through Zira . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
