Pros

“We manage a team of about 40 security guards across multiple sites, and this software helps us keep everything organized without having to juggle spreadsheets and phone calls all day.”
NS

Neha S.

HR - Admin

“What I appreciate most about the Novagems is its user-friendly interface and the instant notifications it provides for employees clocking-in on time, being present on-site, and actively engaging in tasks.”
NB

Nicholas B.

Director of Operations

“Additionally, the customer support has been responsive and helpful whenever I've had questions. While there is always room for improvement, particularly in expanding some functionalities, Nova Gems has significantly enhanced my productivity and organization.”
KP

Komal P.

Operational Manager

Pros

“It also helps to keep track of employee availability, rostered hours/costings per day and there are prompts to make sure changes aren't an accident, but if there's an error, it can be undone!”
AW

Andrea W.

Operations Assistant

“The leave management function allows staff to easily apply for leave, which is then copied in to the roster when approved.”

Patrick C.

Cons

“Some payroll rules are hard to set up, including different rates for overtime or conversion to TOIL.”
EW

Emma W.

Assistant Manager

“Print set up for the rosters makes our roster about 20 pages long and difficult to see it over a fortnightly period - would be ok if we did weekly rosters but is not convenient and therefore we are needing to produce a paper roster aswell”
JW

Jackie W.

Quality and Rostering Coordinator

“Web-based platform is sometimes a little laggy. Unless you are maintaining your own staff, can be a pain to have to refer any little staff change to the payroll people maintaining the files.”
