It was really easy to implement for our team and super intuitive. > > **Cons**: I wish there were ways for me to handle scheduling through an app like employees can manage their time keeping. > > Overall I’ve had a positive experience with Swuare Shifts. ----- ### "Square Shifts for Cafe Use" — 4.0/5 > **Collin** | *31 July 2023* | Food & Beverages | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: The integration with Square’s stack of POS, Payroll, Reporting and shifts makes it the easy decision for us. It’s relatively cheap and has all of the features we need. > > **Cons**: I wish that creating the physical schedule was easier. Possibly a shift copy feature so I could copy a shift and give it to another employee. Or something that was a little more mobile friendly. Wish employees were able to request off for half days instead of only full days. > > Positive. It’s the right choice for us since we’re already using all of square’s other products. ----- ### "Overall enjoy the product" — 4.0/5 > **Jamie** | *23 August 2023* | Food & Beverages | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is easy for our employees to use as they can set their availability, enter time off, pick up shifts, and clock in and out all from their phone easily. > > **Cons**: Sometimes customer support is not the best and from an admin side it is not easy to access some items unless you search it in the search tab. > > Overall I’m happy with the product ----- ### "Scheduling for Small Business" — 5.0/5 > **Annie** | *26 September 2023* | Food & Beverages | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy to use and integrates with all of the other products that square offers. > > **Cons**: Our employees sometimes have issues clocking in using the app. But they are easily able to edit. > > Positive. Square offers so many products and they all integrate together well. Making it pretty easy. ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/389051/square-shifts) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
