OnShift for Pc 2o3g2q

This app is really only good for a couple things 1.) seeing your schedule 2.) putting in a call off 3.) obtaining a staff phone number. It is an ok app for general staff but does not have much to offer managers or supervisors all you can really do is log a call off and see staff phone numbers. It is very disappointing that with the technology available in the world now and considering how advanced other apps are that this app is so limited. Managers should be able to send this app messages to all staff or specific staff not just reply to a message. We should also be able to edit current schedules (add/remove staff). It would be nice to view some items on the app just like we can on the dashboard on a PC such as...time off requests (also be able to approve/deny) and view the employees who are projected overtime. If this app would make these changes 1.) see and edit department schedules 2.) send messages to any staff (other than just call offs) 3.) view and approve/deny time off requests 4.) see projected overtime, then I will change my rating of this app. (It is possible to add these things into the app-other apps do similar things). Until this app actually has some more features that make it worth using for a manager I will not even it to my phone again. It currently is not worth the storage it is using. Please add some helpful features this app and I will give you a much better review next time.

This app is a disappointment for those who actually do the scheduling and need to assist with call offs. I’m giving it 2 stars from a scheduler or manager point of view for the following reasons: 1. When using the app to send a message, you can only send one message at a time AND it sends it via an SMS text. This then allows the employee to always have my personal cell phone number. The other option is sending through Safari which allows you to send a message in the same fashion you do on a desktop, however, reading any responses in this manner is nearly impossible. So if you accidentally forget to check “forward responses” you will most likely be tracking down your laptop. Therefore, not very on-the-go friendly. 2. The app does not allow you to view scheduling for all employees for a particular shift. I need to know how many staff are scheduled to ensure we remain appropriately staffed. This again leads you back to a laptop. And, again, not very on-the-go friendly. If these issues would be fixed I think this would be an amazing app!

Needs to be updated, frequently goes blank or freezes when trying to go through the weeks or picking up shifts. Needs to have the ability to pick the hours you want to work such as offering to work half a shift instead of a whole shift. Also would be nice if there was the ability to see the entire month instead of just two weeks at a time. Wish it would show a schedule of who else is working also

Compared to what my company was using this is a huge upgrade. However, there are some features I’d like added such as staff being able to see who they are working with and staff being able to request partial shifts (by being able to edit the time when they go to pick up). Also the printable are awful and need a rehaul. I will say the auto approval for staff picking up shifts is awesome as well as the messaging system. Overall it’s a good system but still has a way to go!
