Pros

“Not only can we communicate with staff and update scheduling, there are forms for staff retention as well as a reward system that we can use to keep our staff motivated.”
CK

Christina K.

Manager

“We have a few different roles in our business and it requires each of them to have their own shift with that when updating the same shift I wish there was some way that we could update the shift once instead of having to change each one for the different role eg: connected shifts.”
CM

Courtney M.

Operations Coordinator

“I also appreciated the customization options, which made it possible to tailor workflows and features to suit different business needs. Although some advanced features require higher-tier plans and setup can take time initially, the software overall improved organization, accountability, and day-to-day efficiency within the team.”
AW

Allen W.

Rollingstock Maintenance Team Leader

Pros

“I requested for multiple memberships per account.”
CS

Chris S.

Owner

“Still has too many steps for calendar view to see full view of instructors”
AB

Andrew B.

Owner

“You can create memberships, individual events, recurring events, camps, cage rentals, etc.”
ES

Edward S.

Owner

Cons

“We discovered during payroll processing that regular, overtime, and vacation hours were not transferring correctly, resulting in all hours being imported as regular hours.”
AS

Anthony S.

CIO

“Notification fatigue risk – With chats, updates, tasks, and alerts all in one app, employees can sometimes feel overwhelmed if notifications aren’t managed carefully.”
RS

Radha S.

Legal Assistant

“The current layout tends to focus on upcoming items, making it less intuitive when trying to review past events or quickly view an entire month's schedule at a glance.”
AM

Amy M.

Owner

Cons

“Not being able to delete memberships.”
AB

Anthony B.

Owner

“The other thing is only being able to completely block users from booking/registering for things instead of picking and choosing what can be done on the client facing side vs the admin.”
ZB

Zeena B.

Operations Coordinator

“While we do like many of the features, the way we were told they would work is not happening. When we bring issues to Support, there is mostly no fix and we are told there’s nothing that can be done to fix it OR they don’t know why it doesn’t work.”
