HotSchedules

Pros: Easy to use system that is widely used in the industry so most managers have experience with it. Onboarding is a quick process.

Cons: The integration with Point of Sales system is tricky and time consuming. The forecasting models are static.

Pros: very user friendly for staff . as a manager easy to navigate to each employee. easy to release shifts and fill shifts.

Cons: employees have to pay for the app - there is no way around it, wish i could color coordinate that would help

Pros: its so easy to use I mean I'm not exactly the most tech savvy person but even I can figure it out most of the time. I can access my schedule from anywhere which is a total lifesaver no more worrying about losing my schedule or forgetting when I'm supposed to work. the app is super intuitive and I love how easy it is to swap shifts with my coworkers its saved me so much stress

Cons: Okay so sometimes the app can be a little slow but like what app isn't right its not a huge deal or anything I wish there was a way to set reminders for upcoming shifts but thats really my only complaint occasionally I'll get a glitch and have to restart the app but its not the end of the world

Pros: Ability to do % based adjustments and the visual representation of a weekly schedule. Ease of adding and removing shifts.

Cons: The community/communication aspects were never effectively "sold" to me and seemed unnecessary. Mobile function was lacking, and the cost of the app was prohibitive for general employee use.

Pros: It such an easy and effective software for scheduling.

Cons: Its a little hard to intergrate with other workforce management software.

Pros: This is the best for employment scheduling I’ve used, simple design makes it easy to see exactly what shifts, date and times

Cons: No cons what so ever only one it the price could be a little lower

Pros: It's scheduling capabilities meet the industry standards of required features.

Cons: Terribly overpriced (especially for Canadian customers) if you are using it unintegrated; lack of new features being added; an employee app that costs money; a cancellation policy that makes it hard to stop using service unless you time it smartly.

Pros: Very easy to use as well as navigating through reports

Cons: Not much to say here besides better alerts

Pros: Easier to share schedule, get new availability from my employees in real time, plan days off, approve or deny swaps, shift release. It's an amazing tool that facilitate the work.

Cons: It take some time to have a new user on, and sometimes my employees have problems that shows their account it's blocked (but works if they go on the browser incognito), or keep asking them to change password every day once they login.

Pros: I do not recall the scheduling system my previous emplyer used however Fourth is 10 times better. I can easily see my schedule (although I alternate between two shift patterns anyway). My favrouite part of Fourth, as an employee, is how easy it is to request holiday and check my allowance/ usage. I personally would not, now, want to use any other shceduling system.

Cons: If you have booked holiday for the following allowance year (for example April 2024 however it is March 2024) you cannot see your remaining holiday allowance until that holiday year has begun. You can simply work it out as you can see the dates you have booked/ requested off so it's not the end of the world.

Pros: The customizable job titles and departments make it flexible and easy to schedule all areas of the business.

Cons: It can be slow to load. This can be problematic in a fast paced business.

Pros: Pour une commercialisation crédible, ce logiciel est conçu pour les hôtels, les restaurants, et les dirigeants de commerce de détail pour réduire le temps d'administration. Il est conçu dans une intention d'améliorer la rentabilité et permettre aux employés de réglementer les horaires d'une planification et de bien préciser la démande d'outils de communication. Grâce à ce logiciel les employés communiquent facilement

Cons: Pas d'inconvénients trouvés à ce logiciel.

Pros: I loved being able to easily pull up my schedule from anywhere possible via mobile access. Having my work schedule accessible from anywhere while I am on the go makes my life very convenient not only that but being able to easily reschedule or move my schedule around with others makes this product top tier.

Cons: There wasn't anything I disliked about HotSchedule, there is just one feature I didn't really use was time clock. Only reason being was my company used an alternative method of clocking in.

Pros: As far as the management side, HotSchedules is pretty slick. Easy to use and navigate.

Cons: The main issue I have with HotSchedules is requiring staff to pay to purchase the app on their individual phones. It makes it seem like the company is penny pinching.

Pros: The PC design and Cellular App function perfectly together with real time updates and changes made to one instantly reflects on the other. Understanding and navigating HotSchedules easy on the eyes layout and page designs couldn't be better, though I'm sure they will continue to improve even the smallest details to a more perfect version. Reviewing current, real time updated scheduling information may be the core of this program, but the ability to send and receive messages detailing important changes, requests, responses between workplace colleagues is fantastic.

Cons: In my personal and professional experience with HotSchedules I have little to report as negative. Being employed in the mountains at a ski resort the only drawbacks were not directly related to the HotSchedules program itself. From time to time our frail internet connection could be compromised or overloaded by guest's access and use resulting in lat notification of implementation of system updates. Once again, in my experience, this was a result more so of an overworked or disconnected internet, not the HotSchedules program itself.

Pros: Ease of use. have used in previous roles and have always had a great experience. would recommend to anyone looking for a scheduling platform.

Cons: Integration with our payroll system. this would be a fantastic feature to consider for future. thank you!

Pros: Love that you can log in, pick up or release a shift from your phone. You can keep track your schedule, request to work, request off with ease!

Cons: If you want the mobile app, it costs $2.99 to download. It's not the end of the world, but if my employer is already paying for the system, I don't like that I had to pay for the app.

Pros: It is very easy to navigate for both users and administrators, Not only you can access schedules but also you can swap, request time off and also sent personal messages between users.

Cons: none. Completely love app and nave nothing negative to say

Pros: I like that I can see who’s working that day and that it can sync to my calendar

Cons: It runs super slow on my iPhone it’s takes forever for it to load

Pros: Facilidad de uso desde el primer momento en el que integras el programa. Funciona de manera automatizada, de manera que si los empleados cambian el turno, no tienes que preocuparte de hacer ningun cambio manual.

Cons: El único inconveniente es que los trabajadores tienen que pagar por agregar el programa al teléfono.

Pros: hot schedules is used by all restaurant jobs i have had and is extremely easy to use and navigate. switching shifts or putting in for time off is very easy, and messages can be sent to management directly from the app which is extremely helpful!

Cons: while the messaging is extremely helpful it sometimes will not send notifications when one is received, however you can find alternate contact info within the app so they can still be contacted outside of the app if necessary!

Pros: I like that i can copy and paste schedules from week to week

Cons: I did not like how difficult it was to take old employees off the store roster
