I can easily check to see when my next shift is from many places. And my supervisor can schedule me and I can schedule myself. It's easily user definable. > > **Cons**: The filters and views don't save. I have to re-filter every time I open the program. I wish the color scheme could be changed. We have a green/red colorblind person who has trouble reading sometimes. > > Vast improvement over our old system. And I like that different supervisors can change things. ----- ### "A great value, an irreplaceable tool for our organization." — 5.0/5 > **Steven** | *14 February 2018* | Music | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: This helps us organize all of our contractors and employees. It gets them all onboard pretty easy and has a lot of powerful tools that have made running our organization much easier. We tried a LOT of different products and this one was the only one that really met all our needs to get everyone scheduled and organized, it is an amazing value for the price they charge us. > > **Cons**: I wish it was easier to sync with 3rd party apps. The good part is making a .csv of data is super fast and easy but I would still like to see it play nice with other products. > > It really organizes our musicians extremely well, we have very little confusion now. ----- ### "Almost too customizable" — 3.0/5 > **Tiffany** | *27 May 2021* | Staffing & Recruiting | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: You can pretty much do anything with Shiftboard. Ideal for managers with a large number of working employees and/or managing complex shift schedules. Also great for mass communication with all employees or specific groups. Flexible scheduling - manager can assign shifts and/or employees can sign up to work shifts. Employees can use Shiftboard to request time off, call in sick or give up a shift and it will automatically notify all other active employees assigned to that same team that a shift is up for grabs. You can also upload shift schedules from Excel into Shiftboard. > > **Cons**: SO MANY OPTIONS - it can get really confusing and convoluted and is really complicated to learn/train new users (even when you are pretty tech-savvy). Employees have to opt-in for text messaging on their end (and I understand why, it is just frustrating) or you cannot text them through Shiftboard. It is very particular in it's functionalities - if any step (even as small as checking an optional box is not checked) in any given process is missed/incorrect, the entire schedule will be off, and you won't know until you finish and look at the calendar. Then you have to go back in and figure out what went wrong. > > Once you have a handle on it, it is an EXTREMELY useful tool for a manager to have. Customizing/designing your company or teams unique Shifboard experience is a daunting task, and training new users is a lengthy process. BUT if you have the bandwidth to take on those two things, it is an investment worth making. ----- ### "Seamless and easy" — 5.0/5 > **Jessie** | *2 May 2019* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I use this software daily, you can choose to view the week, then click on individual days to see what your schedule is for the day. The software is so simple and straightforward regarding scheduling. Within the main menu you can see: teams, calendar and opportunity (news) You can see what line of support you are scheduled for, when your breaks are at and when you have specific time off to catch up on daily tasks. You then have the option to print it out, download it and connect it to your Google Calendar, Outlook or other iCal compatible calendar tools. > > **Cons**: I truly have never had any issues with this software. I have no dislikes about the software. Working for a company that has your schedule planned out and updates it quickly is such a relief. I previously worked for a financial institution and my schedule was so disorganized. Its great being able to access the Shiftboard at work/home and see what you need to know to be prepared for your shift. > > I have had great experiences with Shiftboard, its super helpful and I'm so glad that my company chose it as it's scheduling software. ----- ### "We use Shiftboard to schedule all of our part-time employees and manage our work schedules. Awesome\!" — 4.0/5 > **Danny** | *13 February 2018* | Religious Institutions > > **Pros**: There are a lot of different ways to take advantage of this software. Workers can trade shifts if you want that, you can bulk schedule duplicate schedules that work well, and on and on I could go. It is really easy to learn and use. > > **Cons**: I would love to pay less since we are a non-profit organization, but the price is still very reasonable. They also have great customer service\! ----- Page: 1 / 11\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/156076/shiftboard?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/156076/shiftboard) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
