Jolt Reviews - Page 4

The options when it comes to making checklists. Notifications to the employee and supervisor. The time clock and time off functions. Making the lists have transferred the responsibility to be on the employee instead of the supervisor having to check on tasks constantly.

Not being able to create specific assignments per employee without having to assign each an individual role. Don't like that other employees can't see when other people are off without publishing the schedule.

I like how easy it is to add lists and to communicate with employees. I also like how once a monthly or daily list is created, it just pops up automatically.

I love the accountability that Jolt creates for my staff. The label maker is great. I also like that I can get a notification if one of my coolers is not holding temp.

There are a couple of features that I would really like to see added. The first would be a timer that you could set inside of the lists. For example, when we are cooling hot foods, we have to take temps at specific times and track them. Right now we have to set an external timer and it would be a cool addition to be able to do that all in 1 spot. The second would be to have the ability to copy a list template and modify it from the clone to another template. We have lots of lists that are very similar in the setting we need and just repeat on a different day, like daily cleaning tasks, and it is somewhat time consuming to create each template from scratch.

Notifications, Product labeling.

Calculator feature not available.

I like the easy to use functions and how simple the app is.

The trouble shooting is hard to use and most of the time the issues with printers is really hard especially with the label making option. Not very user friendly when it comes to issues

Easy to set up. Able to track hours and tasks completed by staff.

Setting up reminders for a task list (e.g. every 3 months) I personally find confusing.

Allows for a single employee operating system. It becomes the go to for everything from clocking in to training to everyday KPI tracking.

There are no intergrations. So the data that is filled out in Jolt stays in Jolt and needs to be manually extracted to be useful for inventory, job performance, KPI tracking... Adding intergrations like Google Apps and QuickBooks would make Jolt the ultimate tool.

Love the messaging options, keeps communication easy

Scheduling on jolt isn’t the greatest, weren’t able to trade shifts easily

Jolt has proven invaluable to our organization. It is loaded with features that help our operations on an hourly basis.

There is so much that Jolt can do that it takes some time to set it all up.

Easy to track products . Easy to track the time & the date that when some one prep & who was the employ

We like everything about Jolt except we are having some technical issues . Its keep saying software update . I tried to reboot iPad but its still pooing out every time.

The fixed price per month per location saves money without constantly monitoring the budget. I had enough of the activating/deactivating locations and employees to save costs during non-peak times. We switched vendors and cut our costs by 200% plus we added functionality at the same time. That's a rare win-win. Jolt is a software suite not just one software package. We have consolidated many daily operating functions into one product suite which not only saves money but gives the day-to-day users a consistent platform.

It would be great if managers could receive notifications about time off requests and other approvals through text and/or email messages. The push notifications work but some managers would prefer another delivery method like text/email.

I like the ease of scheduling. It makes us quick for our scheduler which allows us to focus on our guest and not be bogged down with office work.

Not having the hours of your team available when you click on them. This would help when you are in weekly view and by role.

No pros were added to this review

If you have multiple content groups, you can't move things from one group the other. Everything has to be created from scratch, which is a real pain if 90% is the same from one content group to the next.

How easy it is to record lots of information about many people without spending a terribly long time. The bulk import when I made lists is brilliant. It is also very intuitive to understand the timesheet and very easy to create the schedules. The user interface is so simple and understandable despite the fact that there is a lot of complex information to be recorded. I thought I would spend at least...

Not much, but it would be great if it was more adaptet to Europe as well, like the clock, (not am / pm but 24h) possibility to send sms to employees etc.

That it can be configured to meet our specific needs is the best feature! I also love the fact that I can email my representative for anything and she always gets back to me in a timely fashion. I like the ease of use for the employees as well.

It was a bit tricky to figure out how to upload a training video, but my representative was able to help me, and we successfully uploaded the video!

It's very easy to follow up on schedules, product labels, and completed checklists. I also like that I can add training material as needed.

equipment is a little pricey. At least in the beginning. Sometimes my downloaded videos wont play on the tablet

I like that you can schedule tasks along with schedules and Jolt will send reminders. Accountability. I like that you can check your schedule on the app and via email.

I don't like the fact that when it texts you your schedule it breaks it up into 3 texts.

Ease of use, functionality, and flexibility of the lists

would like to be able to customize the look of the lists - different colors and things like that.

Easy to hold your staff accountable for all their assigned tasks and for maintaining food safety. You're able to get emails/texts when temps are out of range or someone has completed tasks that they should have completed.

I haven't found any cons just yet. We went from using the standard Redbook set up to this.

Jolt has streamlined our task-management and reduced our need for paper checklists, handbooks, and documents, reducing clutter. It is useful to have as a means of employee communication.

This software can be a bit confusing to learn, including learning how to navigating through all of the features.

Easy and convenient way to ensure everything that needs to be done is done and track who did it and when it was done.

I don't have any complaints about this software. It has worked really well for us.

The versatility and price

Some of the copy over features when copying from one content group to another makes it difficult.

Once it is set up properly, it is extremely LEAN and user friendly. Minimal training required for the average user. Accountability and quality are now more easily monitored.
