So glad this is free to use

Pros

What stood out for me was how user friendly it was. The color layout made everything easier to read and I liked being able to set up schedules for multiple locations.

Cons

One thing that annoyed me was whenever I moved a shift it would automatically get unpublished again.

Makes scheduling way easier

Pros

It is very simple to manage different schedules and team calendars. Plus I like that I can switch between desktop and mobile versions without any trouble.

Cons

This is more of a user issue but still I would like to share that my team uses a bunch of calendars, so if you are not careful it is easy to get mixed up between schedules.

Happy with how it works

Pros

So far I have loved the color tags, how easy it is to use and how helpful their support is. Plus we are still learning more of what it can do and I am excited to keep using it.

Cons

It would be great if I could rename PTO types like sick or sick child. Also the PTO hours are not counted in the paid hours total so I have to run a separate report to calculate everything.
