"Inflexible and cumbersome. Too many clicks to anything"

0.5/5

What do you like best about Schedulefly?

It emails shifts to employees and sends a daily schedule to the managers Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy Scheduling!"

5/5

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Schedulefly:

Try the free trial! Great way to see all the quality of this program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. I can offer my employees a professional experience, no spreadsheet schedule on a corkboard and we have an easy way to communicate with each other through the program as an added bonus!

Love the specificity, simplicity and interface. Does what I need, and I can access it easily on all my devices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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 Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Definitely recommend. Increases team communication, punctuality, and accountability. Customer Service is great and ability to calculate labor cost is useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Lifesaver"

5/5

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
