## Reviews

### "Simple and handy for it's users" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *27 April 2021* | Media Production | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's really handy to get my assignments right on my phone. Requesting replacements on the fly is also fast and efficient as my managers get my requests in the minute and the software automatically finds someone to take over. Plus everything else we manage like vacation requests.
> 
> **Cons**: We used to have to go on the web version to enter our timesheets. They did however add the feature on mobile in the past months which is a big relief. Not much negative stuff to say here.
> 
> Fast and efficient schedule management.

### "Nice Change for our Timekeeping" — 4.0/5

> **Jeff** | *6 November 2025* | Arts & Crafts | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like that we can adjust a recurring schedule by changing one, all or future dates.  This is one of the few tools that I found that could do this and was the main reason we moved to Evolia. I also like that employees can request shift changes, add their availability, and make leave requests.  We didn't have this functionality in our last application.
> 
> **Cons**: The Amilia interface does not support recurring entries entered in Amilia, so I have to make my own and delete the duplicates.  I also don't like that if I need to add two different positions to a shift then I have to copy one.  It would be better if you could pick each position and number of people for a shift and then add the people for each position. Also, there is no way to link these together so the other people on those duplicate shifts can see who is working with them.  In my case, I have many classes with a Lead Teacher and an Assistant Teacher.  It's important that they know who is working with them, so the only want to make that work is to add both people in notes manually.
> 
> We are still learning, but overall we like it much better than Timesheet Mobile, mostly based upon what I mentioned in what I like most about Evolia.  Our employees have not started using it much yet and we have yet to run a payroll, so we'll probably have more feedback over the next few weeks.

### "voila evaluation" — 4.0/5

> **paul** | *22 November 2023* | Leisure, Travel & Tourism | Recommendation rating: 4.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: tracking staff hours and clocking in and out
> 
> **Cons**: checking staff availability or receiving updates on availability. also some features are not  avaleable on app compared to on desk top so it makes updating certin info on the fly difficult.
> 
> after using it for a couple years now it has its pros and cons like all technologies certin features for tracking staff are helpful but others cause more miscommunication between staff and managers especially when dealing with availability updates

### "Efficient and Easy to Use" — 5.0/5

> **Sarv** | *9 December 2025* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Evolia is a standout platform known for its innovative approach and user-centric design. Whether it's a product or service, it combines cutting-edge technology with seamless functionality, making it both efficient and easy to use. The interface is intuitive, ensuring that even new users can quickly navigate and get the most out of it. Evolia's attention to detail is evident in its performance, offering speed and reliability. What sets it apart is its commitment to continuous improvement, staying ahead of trends and responding to user feedback. Overall, Evolia excels in delivering value and user satisfaction in its field.
> 
> **Cons**: What I liked least about Evolia was that some features felt a bit less intuitive when I first started using the platform. A few settings were tucked away in menus that took me a moment to find, and onboarding required a bit of trial and error before everything clicked. I also noticed that certain customization options were more limited than I expected, which made it harder to tailor the experience exactly the way I wanted. Once I got used to it, these issues mattered less, but the initial learning curve was definitely the weakest point for me.
> 
> My overall experience with Evolia was positive. The platform felt modern, efficient, and thoughtfully designed. Once I got past the initial learning curve, the workflow became smooth and the tools fit well with what I needed to get done. I appreciated how responsive and reliable it was, especially during busier moments when consistency mattered most. There were a few areas where I wished for more flexibility, but overall the strengths—clean interface, solid performance, and helpful features—made it a platform I enjoyed using. It ultimately streamlined my tasks and made my day-to-day work easier.

### "Best Scheduling Tool" — 5.0/5

> **Rafat** | *26 November 2025* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Evolia is very easy to use and has a clean, intuitive layout. The project management and scheduling tools make it simple to organize tasks, assign shifts, and keep everyone aligned. It saves time and helps streamline daily operations.
> 
> **Cons**: Some areas of the layout could be more simplified. A cleaner interface and fewer steps to access certain settings or reports would make the system even more efficient. Minor improvements to navigation would enhance the overall experience.
> 
> This was my first time using Evolia, and I found it to be very user-friendly. The learning curve is minimal, and most features are intuitive. It has been helpful for scheduling, team management, and staying organized across departments.
