Console includes solutions for Scheduling, Time Keeping, and Job Tracking. With Console Scheduling it is simple to drag-drop Employees, Crews, \& Equipment to Scheduled Jobs. Employees can be notified via SMS text messages and view their schedule if permitted. With Console Time Keeping employees login using a secure personal pin-code to track man-hours and see total weekly hours at a glance. When a Job is added to the system a Job profile is created which includes a Job Message Board; for storing and sharing notes, photos, and documents. Man-hours and quantities can be tracked to tasks; leaders can know early on if the production rates fall behind a set goal, in time to take necessary action before it is too late. Console is a Progressive Web App which means that employees can use the app on any web-connected device. The app can be accessed via a web-browser and it can be installed on mobile phones such as iPhones and Androids, as well as on PCs with Mac, Windows, or Linux operating systems. > > Verdict: Rated **5.0/5** by 4 users.
