All your small business scheduling needs. **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Anthony L. | Vice President, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 07, 2024 **What do you like best about Schedulefly?** A very robust platform with a ton of features. We use it at all of our 14 restaurant locations and it provides everything we need. **What do you dislike about Schedulefly?** I will let you know when I find something I'm not a fan of. **What problems is Schedulefly solving and how is that benefiting you?** It helps us schedule all employees from salaried to hourly. Easily able to have servers post and pickup/trade shifts. Helps us to control labor with projections and pay rate information. ### 2. Inflexible and cumbersome. Too many clicks to anything **Rating:** 0.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Rob G. | President, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 26, 2021 **What do you like best about Schedulefly?** It emails shifts to employees and sends a daily schedule to the managers **What do you dislike about Schedulefly?** I absolutely hate creating a schedule on it. We don't have a set schedule every week and this system is highly flexible. Adjusting a shift's times is several clicks. When an employee wants the morning off it shows they want the entire day off It does not show me how many employees I want to have on each shift. The schedule template just copies the schedule with the employees from week to week. There is no way to copy shifts without it being attached to an employee. **Recommendations to others considering Schedulefly:** Test it thoroughly before spending. **What problems is Schedulefly solving and how is that benefiting you?** Easier to read than a spreadsheet ### 3.

Easy Scheduling! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Food & Beverages | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 21, 2020 **What do you like best about Schedulefly?** The ease of use with the program, user friendly, and not complicated just for the sake of it. **What do you dislike about Schedulefly?** The options to request off could be simplified. So employees and the admin doesn't have to approve 3-day parts per shift. One day approved would be enough. **Recommendations to others considering Schedulefly:** Try the free trial! Great way to see all the quality of this program. **What problems is Schedulefly solving and how is that benefiting you?** I run a small business and the affordability of programs like schedulefly is a lifesaver.

Great Program **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Restaurants | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 29, 2019 **What do you like best about Schedulefly?** Love the specificity, simplicity and interface. Does what I need, and I can access it easily on all my devices. **What do you dislike about Schedulefly?** There’s nothing much I don’t like. When an employee only requests a portion of a day off the editing part of the program doesn’t note that. It just notes that they have requested off **Recommendations to others considering Schedulefly:** Definitely recommend. Increases team communication, punctuality, and accountability. Customer Service is great and ability to calculate labor cost is useful. **What problems is Schedulefly solving and how is that benefiting you?** Solving the “I didn’t get the schedule” or I wasn’t here to see when I worked” problems. Being able to send via text and email is great. ### 6.

Works great, east to maneuver! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Restaurants | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 12, 2019 **What do you like best about Schedulefly?** I like how user friendly it is. When my manager is making schedules, s/he is able to see how many hours everyone is working that week, as well as who is and is not able to work. Love it! **What do you dislike about Schedulefly?** There's not really anything in particular that I do not like about it. **What problems is Schedulefly solving and how is that benefiting you?** Seeing who is working the same time as me.

A Lifesaver **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Amara C. | Business Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 31, 2018 **What do you like best about Schedulefly?** Schedulefly is incredibly user friendly and readable. For employees, looking at personal, daily, and weekly schedules is a breeze and for managers, creating and editing schedules is incredibly quick and easy. Employees can enter in their availability to work based upon their own schedules, and managers are automatically able to see who is available during each shift based on people's availability requests. **What do you dislike about Schedulefly?** Honestly there's nothing I don't love about schedulefly; its the perfect scheduling system. I guess if there were anything I would improve, I would add in some additional projecting capabilities for sales and labor percentages, but those are very minor to me and don't really impact my view on the system. **Recommendations to others considering Schedulefly:** I highly recommend Schedulefly to anyone running an availability-based or shift-based business. The ease of use is unparalleled and both employees and management love it. **What problems is Schedulefly solving and how is that benefiting you?** Scheduling is made a breeze with Schedulefly. Managers can easily create and edit schedules, and both management and employees can easily view weekly schedules for the whole staff or a personalized schedule for the week. Employees can easily give up and pick up shifts, enter their availability for scheduling, and access contact information for other employees. ### 9. Welp, time for work. **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Restaurants | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** February 10, 2019 **What do you like best about Schedulefly?** That the site logs you in automatically if that’s the preference the user sets up. **What do you dislike about Schedulefly?** Sometimes doesn't show updates to the schedule that fast. **What problems is Schedulefly solving and how is that benefiting you?** Helps all employees keep in contact with each other for trading shifts, seeing updates to the schedule. ### 10. Scheduling Made Easy **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** James H. | Marketing and Event Manager, Hospitality, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 05, 2018 **What do you like best about Schedulefly?** This software allowes management teams to effectively schedule their employees and for them to request days off. **What do you dislike about Schedulefly?** There is no mobile application so therefore every time someone needs to use the website they must use a web browser. **What problems is Schedulefly solving and how is that benefiting you?** Scheduling an entire restaurant worth of employees. It makes it easy for employees to view their schedules and make adjustments. ## Schedulefly Discussions - [How does schedule Fly work?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/how-does-schedule-fly-work) - 1 comment - [Is Schedulefly free?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/is-schedulefly-free) - 1 comment ## Schedulefly Pricing [View full pricing details](https://www.g2.com/products/schedulefly/pricing) ## Schedulefly Features **Platform Basics** - Interoperability - Performance - Reporting **Platform Data** - Dashboard - Alerts and Notifications **Platform Additional Functionality** - Cloud - Mobility - Messaging **Agentic AI - Restaurant Scheduling** - Autonomous Task Execution - Multi-step Planning - Cross-system Integration - Adaptive Learning - Proactive Assistance - Decision Making ## Top Schedulefly Alternatives - [7shifts](https://www.g2.com/products/7shifts/reviews) - 4.5/5.0 (123 reviews) - [Homebase](https://www.g2.com/products/homebase/reviews) - 4.5/5.0 (360 reviews) - [Connecteam](https://www.g2.com/products/connecteam/reviews) - 4.6/5.0 (3,485 reviews)
