Schedulefly Features

The software's ease of use means no training is required and this means that a lot of formerly time consuming issues - shift trades and shift checking for example - are so easily done that I have forgotten what it was like before we started using Schedulefly. The price is also fantastic. As is the customer service.

There is nothing to dislike about this software. FYI capterra verified me through my linked in profile and it is making me use my distillery as my organization. I also have Top of the Hill Restaurant and Brewery and that is the organization I use Schedulefly for.

It enables our users to do everything...time off requests, schedule availability and approvals are crystal clear and easily managed by our managers and staff.

No issues at all...it really fulfills all of our needs.

Schedulefly's ease of use is amazing. Amazing level of detail. Value-added reports, team messaging, system dashboard for all locations, post to one or all locations. Zero learning curve for new hires. Affordable pricing plans. When people here we use an online system they love it. Web based app for mobile device. Shift transfers and time off request take no time, and you can track for each team member. Hours and hours of schedule preparation has been cut down to minutes for every department manager.

Honestly, I haven't found an issue with the service

I like being able to have a view of a schedules draft while being able to edit. It is also helpful they do not need to be both set to the same position.

It would be helpful to have a feature that lists a prefers to work and does not prefer to work designation that each employee can fill out. Sometimes employees will try to use their time off requests to accommodate their preferences, not necessarily their actual availability. It would also be helpful to have shift swaps made clear, separate from shift pick ups. The mobile version of the site doesn't allow me to see a quick view of the schedule for the day of the pick up request.

I enjoy how easy to use this software is. User friendly. Very organized. Easy to update information. Clean and to the point.

I would like to see a mobile app for easy access on a mobile device. Alos would like to be able to trade shifts the day of. The software only allows within a 24 hour time window but some employees need same day swaps

Patience, thank you for the nice review! We've got an easy shortcut for you for your mobile device. Shoot us a note to support@schedulefly.com and we'll show you. Also, your employer has a setting in place preventing shift trades within 24 hours. That setting can be changed by them to enable same-day shift trades. Thanks! Wil (member of the Schedulefly crew)

The ability to communicate to our entire staff. We use the message wall for everything, and it's super user friendly and staff never miss a memo. We also sometimes communicate across all four restaurants in our group through a convenient dashboard which has eliminated the need for back and forth between managers.

Sometimes the schedule can be a bit difficult to read for some of our larger teams, but there's different ways to print so we work around it.

The time I save every day and how easy it is for my employees to view and manage their schedules are the best benefits of using Schedulefly for us. We went from a paper schedule with notes everywhere, sometimes lost in the shuffle, to a schedule that can be accessed and updated at any time, from anywhere, instantly. There is no excuse now for an employee not knowing their schedule or changes to the schedule!

There really isn't anything I would change. We have been using Schedulefly for more than 6 years and we love it.

Schedulefly is the absolute easiest, most obviously simple scheduling software for a restaurant EVER. It never misses a text to anyone, it always stays right on time. There are no complications if you have whatever kind of phone, Schedulefly works. You could have a flip phone from 2008, have no fear...Schedulefly is going to still send you real time notifications and send real time notifications to the management team.

The only thing I wish was that Schedulefly had more of a following. They put HotSchedules to shame, Schedulicity to shame, etc. Unfortunately, both of those software systems tend to be used more which I think is a shame.

Everything! The system is perfect for our use in contacting employees and scheduling them.

I have found nothing about this system that I dislike. However, it would be nice to be able to embed photos. I may simply not know how to do this, but would like to be able to let m y staff see actual promotional pieces and photos of specials etc.

ScheduleFly is easy to use, customer service is fantastic and employees love the simple interface. I have used this software across 13 restaurants at one time and the benefits for labor cost are incredible!

There is nothing that I don't like! ScheduleFly is amazing!

The interface for our business managers and staff is concise, easy to use and mobile friendly.

If there was more integration with our POS that would be beneficial.

Ease of use Communicate with the entire team with one message Makes scheduling a breeze Our teams love it

We haven’t found any cons in the 12 years we have used Schedulefly

Easy access to multi location, great reporting tools with fully integrated labor financials. Very user-friendly, great template saving capabilities, for speedy scheduling.

That currently we do not have a POS that integrates with Schedulfly, but we are picking up a new POS that will, and excited to see the full integration.

Not only has our FOH staff enjoyed the product, the BOH staff also has really welcomed the different options of managing their schedules on their mobile devices.

I wish it was compatible with our POS system to help manage early clock-in times.

I love how easy schedulefly is to use. Training new hires to use the website is seamless and so straightforward. It makes time off requests so easy to schedule around. It’s just an awesome website to help communicate with staff.

I haven’t really had any issues with schedulefly so far. A full app would be cool!

Very user friendly for staff to figure out how to use!

I would like to be able to create new shift "in" times in real time rather than having to exit the schedule I am currently working on and go back to the page to add in a whole new shift time.

Does one thing and does it well which is scheduling. So it's not bloated with add-on features or functionality making it simple to use even for non-tech savvy users.

Navigating dates in the reports screen takes too many steps. Needs to be simpler to select a date range to run a report.

being able to run reports. knowing when my employees have viewed their schedule.

not having an actually app but I am able to put the web page on my home screen

Love the ease of use, multi-unit dashboard, reports, templates and of course podcast!

The way text messages get formatted when I send out messages from the software.

Very User Friendly. Great for multiple locations or single locations.

I have not seen any cons with this software.

Very easy to use for managers and staff. Scheduling and budgeting simple but effective. Minimal set up

Internet worked fine for it. No app available which isn’t a deal breaker but at the time website was not optimized for mobile browsing

Ease of use, ability to communicate effectively with staff, and post documents.

Printability of time off requests and maybe some other reports.

Really user friendly, and many more functions than just scheduling.

N/A This software will keep you from so many scheduling headaches.

I liked how easy it is to adjust the schedule when work times changed.

Requesting time off can be a little confusing
