What is ScheduleAnywhere?

ScheduleAnywhere is an online employee scheduling solution which enables users to schedule employees across multiple departments and locations, manage staffing requirements, track coverage, manage time off requests, control overtime, inform employees of schedule updates, and more. The system is designed for organizations in a range of industries including retail, business services, transportation, government, energy, healthcare, public safety, and law enforcement.

Key benefits of using ScheduleAnywhere

Employees working in more than one location or department appear on multiple schedules, giving managers insight into all of a shared employee’s shifts, and ScheduleAnywhere automatically prevents overlapping shifts to ensure that no employees are double-booked.

Staffing requirements can be added into schedules by location, department, position, or shift, enabling users to flexibly monitor coverage, with automatic tracking of scheduled hours and staff members for overtime management.

Users are able to select from 1-day, 7-day, 14-day, 28-day, and 42-day schedule views, and highlight shifts in different colors to identify sick days, vacations, and other items.

Employees are notified of published schedules by SMS or email, according to their specified communications preferences.

Employee attributes including training, certifications, and skills can be tracked, with automatic alerts 90 days before licences or certifications are due to expire.

Pros

It saves me time and is so easy to use and navigate. The customer service is awesome and everyone I have dealt with has been so supportive and helpful.

Melissa E.

Their Customer Service is outstanding, the software helps our company on so many positive ways.

Melissa E.

We went from paper scheduling to online scheduling with Schedule Anywhere so it has been a definite improvement. Like all software programs, I do feel like there is room for improvement.

Kathryn N.

Cons

We were getting complaints about communication between sections and changes to printed schedules that no one knew about. This program has greatly diminished the complaints.

Ralph H.

On the administrative side, it didn't alert users if their schedule was changed unknowingly. This resulted in more than one close call in someone missing a shift.

Anonymous Reviewer

On your phone it is a little more difficult to utilize all the functions. If you ar scheduled on multiple units it is hard to check that.

Amazing Product!

Reviewed 4 months ago

[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] helped me set up the system and was very patient and helpful. If I have issues, he answers no matter what day or time it is. I used to spend up to 4 hours per day on hand-generated spreadsheets. It’s all I ever got accomplished. Now, I can Add employees, change schedules, and see years ahead within minutes or less! Our staff loves this product! They can now submit for...

Pros

To be able to visually see our entire staffs schedules for a 6-week period with just a glance.

Cons

Initial set up was a little too complicated for me to understand. For example, setting up Shifts and Coverage Watches, understanding when to use an Explanation, and understanding all of the features. Once set up, it was a breeze! I’d like to be able to view more days spans instead of just 1, 7, 14 etc. for example I’d like to be able to view 2, 3, 4 .... etc. I wish the app was more detailed and I could view the entire schedule instead of just one day at a time. I’d like to be able to print all people on a shift daily as opposed to just the ones working.

Hi Rhonda: Wonderful! Thank you for such a great review. We are so happy to hear that ScheduleAnywhere has saved you so much time and money! I'll share your thoughtful comments with your sales executive. Thanks again! Best regards, Jane

Love this product

Reviewed 2 months ago

Schedule Anywhere team has been wonderful to work with. They are quick to answer questions. They also listen to our suggestion on how to better their program and have made exceptional changes from our feedback.

Pros

Schedule Anywhere as really changed my scheduling job. I have been scheduling in an Emergency Department for 10 years, the last 3 yrs with Schedule Anywhere. I had been awesome to be able to see staff schedules across the system, if they work in other departments, and that staff have access to schedule from home! They can submit swaps, schedule request, and vacation request on their days off. I also love the ease of the coverage watches to assure my unit is properly staffed for each shift. The filter option is also very useful when staffing a large department.

Cons

I wish that staff could see explanations beyond the self scheduling dates. We use explanation to mark their assigned weekend/holidays and future trades. It is a nice visual for staff to be able to see and plan for the future. I also wish, as a manager, that I could edit Shifts/ requests from the Messages Inbox.

Good product but not the easiest to work with

Reviewed 4 months ago

The program does its job for us. I wish it would speak with Google calendar and other scheduling programs.

Pros

We have several different shifts and units. Schedule Anywhere allows us to view yearly schedules for our essential employees.

Cons

It can be difficult to use at times. The mobile version needs to be improved. It is basically useless as it stands now.

Vendor response

Dear Jason, Thank you for taking the time to review ScheduleAnywhere. I'm sorry to learn that you are finding the software difficult to use at times. I'll ask your account manager to get in touch. He'll be able to provide some tips and suggestions to provide support. We also have a number of helpful videos on our website (under the resource section) that you may find helpful. Thank you again for your feedback. Best regards, Jane

Schedule anywhere

Reviewed 4 months ago

I have loved working in SA for 2 1/2 years....so much better than the old way we did scheduling!! staff love being able to view work schedule from their phone and it is very easy to submit trades.

Pros

admins can add information well into the future, no paper trail to keep track of like in past scheduling options at our facility, automatic opening of the timers, add and delete staff easily easy for new staff to learn how to use, love being able to see the schedule on phone or work on from home

Cons

recently our facility blocked staff from viewing future information on the schedule...this has been a huge dissatifyer for staff because they can't view future trades, holiday/weekend assignments, details on who they can trade with or not. They can only view a finalized schedule or during the timer for BID sheet they can view that 6 weeks. I would love to be able to alphabetize the staff names in...

I'll have your customer support representative get in touch with you about some of your questions. Thanks again! All the best, Jane
