    Scheduling reminders and notifications has also been a very useful feature. I make sure no one misses out on important information by setting automatic reminders, allowing us to always stay on top of news and changes in our organization.

    Pros

    I can share different types of content, such as text, videos, PDFs, and I can even ask my colleagues questions to make sure they have understood the information. There are no more excuses for miscommunications or mix-ups. And best of all, I can set reminders and send notifications, ensuring everyone is aware of important updates.

    Cons

    It would be great to have a more advanced search feature that allows me to quickly find what I'm looking for, whether it's by keyword, date, or sender. This would save time and make it easier to navigate within the platform.

    I have cut my time that is spent making the schedule down from the previous program I used.

    Pros

    I have the ability to schedule as many positions to multiple employees for our Renaissance faire food and beverage staff..this is crucial when I need to have an employee work in multiple locations through out the day.

    Cons

    I am unable to send the schedule to just a select employee or employees. Currently I have to send it to the entire staff.

    terrible! any company that makes it so hard to cancel a subscription has no faith in their product. It is a billing scam!

    Pros

    we never used the software and tried to cancel the initial free subscription. They make it virtually impossible to cancel once you are signed up! after repeated attempts to send email on they're site with nor response we disputed the charges. No one ever responded or called back. any company that makes it so difficult to cancel a subscription is a good reason to stay away. they rely on you singing up for free trial and then never being able to get ahold of any to cancel. why would they not have any way to cancel your subscription online. High pressure sales and borderline criminal! stay away!

    Overall, I am happy with the experience. There are some options that I would like to have added, but it is saving me some time.

    Pros

    The cost and the function that allows team members to edit their own punches. Huge time saver for me.

    Cons

    I would like to see integration of Paid Time Off / Vacation hours. We have a set schedule in our clinic, so the scheduling function is a little cumbersome. I understand this approach for restaurants or other types of businesses, but the ability to track / enter Paid time off would be very helpful. I also would like the report option to be different. I would like a report that gave daily, weekly and pay period totals per employee. I have to manually adjust the excel sheet to figure overtime hours.

    The ability to instantly communicate with my entire team, send targeted messages to specific roles or specific employees, and the ability to display media is really cool.

    Pros

    I love the ability to instant message my entire team with just one click, which has made communication much easier and ensured that everyone is aware of critical information.

    Cons

    Sometimes it can be a bit overwhelming to receive a large number of messages at the same time if there are a lot of people in the chat.
