# ShiftCare User Reviews

## Reviews summary

- Overall rating: 4.6/5
- Total reviews: 145

### Secondary ratings

- Ease of use: 4.6/5
- Customer support: 4.7/5
- Value for money: 4.5/5
- Functionality: 4.4/5

### Rating distribution

- 5 stars: 106 reviews (73%)
- 4 stars: 29 reviews (20%)
- 3 stars: 6 reviews (4%)
- 2 stars: 1 reviews (1%)
- 1 star: 3 reviews (2%)

### Most mentioned pros

- Very efficient customer chat support, easy to understand features, quick way to see uploaded documents (no need to download a file to view), reminder feature, etc.
- I like that it is not just a timesheet software but also a billing software and record keeping for workers and clients.
- The customer support is excellent, and the frequent updates ensure the platform continues to improve. While some UX and mobile features could use refinement, the overall experience has been positive, and I’d recommend it to others in the support industry.

### Most mentioned cons

- Too many areas where times are included when adding a shift i.e: billing, client and support worker times - just have all one time as this causes problems.
- The App is just focused at a staff level. And there is also no proper communication channel and viewer for clients to see.
- I am unable to have access as a founder and phone access as a staff/support worker.

### Highly Effective, Well-Priced Platform with Excellent Support and Room for UX Improvements

- Overall rating: 4/5
- Reviewer: Daniel M.
- Verified reviewer: Yes

- Company size: 2-10 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months

ShiftCare has streamlined our business operations, reducing admin time and errors significantly. The customer support is excellent, and the frequent updates ensure the platform continues to improve. While some UX and mobile features could use refinement, the overall experience has been positive, and I’d recommend it to others in the support industry.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

ShiftCare offers transparent pricing, flexible user management, and seamless Xero integration. The platform’s responsive customer support and regular improvements through a semi-public roadmap are standout features, making it highly user-friendly and efficient.

#### Cons

While ShiftCare is a robust platform, there are some areas that need improvement. The lack of a dedicated mobile admin app and a non-responsive website can make it difficult to manage tasks efficiently on the go. Certain UX issues, such as the awkward date picker and limited flexibility in scheduling shifts (e.g., only allowing 15- or 30-minute increments), slow down workflows. Managing recurring shifts could be smoother, as it currently requires excessive clicking through the month picker. There are also inconsistencies, such as the inability to bulk-edit kilometre pricing and the poor handling of split shifts, which don’t reflect correctly in the carer app or timesheets. Additionally, minor but noticeable issues—like formatting errors with Xero integration, the lack of automatic syncing with Xero for staff details, and small bugs in the mobile app—make ShiftCare feel less polished than it could be. Improving these areas would make a big difference in daily usage.

#### Reasons for choosing ShiftCare

Transparent, affordable pricing; much more responsive pre-sales team; Xero integration; met our admin needs; good feature set

#### Reasons for switching to ShiftCare

Payroller's mobile app was significantly buggy, had poor cross-platform development, and very feature-limited.

#### Vendor response

Thank you very much for your detailed review Daniel. We appreciate your feedback!

### NDIS Providers need Shiftcare!

- Overall rating: 4/5
- Reviewer: Jackie M.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Individual & Family Services
- Company size: 11-50 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years
- Reviewed: April 2025
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review.

overall, we could not operate without Shiftcare, so very useful. Our rosters are a live and moving document, and Shiftcare can be operated in real time.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

The rostering, billing and staff management are all very good. When you first start out you think you only need the bare minimum of features, however, you quickly realise you need to much more of what is available.

#### Cons

some different levels of purchased use. Most businesses would need to be able to roster and bill for NDIS and have staff management. Anything to do with those things should be available for two top teers of purchase. Maybe SIL etc should be in the top level purchase.

#### Reasons for choosing ShiftCare

appeared to be more geared to NDIS industry and therefore more features important to our business

#### Reasons for switching to ShiftCare

required a better scheduling system that was not as complicated.

#### Vendor response

Thanks so much for the thoughtful review! We’re thrilled to hear ShiftCare has become such an essential part of your operations - especially when it comes to live rostering, billing, and staff management. You’re right: once things get moving, those “nice-to-have” features quickly become must-haves, and we’re proud to offer the tools NDIS providers really need. We appreciate your feedback around plan tiers too. We’re always reviewing how features are packaged, and your comments help us make more informed decisions to better support providers like you. Thanks again for choosing ShiftCare - we’re here to help make care simpler, every step of the way. The ShiftCare Team

### Big mistake in choosing Shiftcare

- Overall rating: 1/5
- Reviewer: Jason S.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Hospital & Health Care
- Company size: 51-200 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months
- Reviewed: November 2025
- Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered

Extremely disappointing. I run a home care agency and was looking for reliable scheduling and client management software. ShiftCare sold a vision they couldn’t deliver. The product is unstable, support is unreliable, and the company’s integrity is questionable. I would strongly caution other agencies to look elsewhere.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 1/5
- Customer support: 1/5
- Functionality: 1/5

#### Pros

The only positive was that the sales team seemed eager to help—at least before I paid the deposit. I heard from sales constantly leading up to contract signature. Shocker I know.

#### Cons

ShiftCare completely overpromised and underdelivered. The onboarding was confusing and poorly supported. They misrepresented having a working public API, and once I raised concerns, their communication dropped off. They even called my personal cell multiple times for payment before onboarding, but once issues appeared, they vanished.

#### Reasons for choosing ShiftCare

Sales people told me what i wanted to hear in terms of functionality and how easy it would be to switch. All lies.

#### Reasons for switching to ShiftCare

I wanted more current technology and a better UX. I have gone right back to Wellsky though. Its so much better than Shiftcare. I never should have switched.

### Good but needs some work

- Overall rating: 4/5
- Reviewer: Zeb H.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Health, Wellness and Fitness
- Company size: 11-50 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years
- Reviewed: May 2025
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review.

For an expensive product you’d expect more. Dedicated Management App/Client App/Staff App a must!! Then improving the design and correcting all the glitches would go a long way too!!

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 3/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 3/5

#### Pros

Has a lot of scheduling options. Still a bit clunky there are a lot of features inside which could be tweaked which would improve the experience. Also the layout is a little old school. Not as modern as most tech platforms

#### Cons

NO APP FOR MANAGEMENT. There needs to be a dedicated App for IPhone that allows for simple rescheduling and booking of staff and managing of the business. The App is just focused at a staff level. And there is also no proper communication channel and viewer for clients to see. A strong focus should go towards such as you can tell it’s just a “patch job” that’s been included to make it seem like it has the function. So you really need to design an App for staff, an app for clients and an App for management. Whether it’s seperate apps or within the same, it needs to specific designs around those 3 elements

#### Reasons for choosing ShiftCare

More focused towards NDIS management of clients

#### Vendor response

We sincerely appreciate your time and effort to submit this review, we are building out all of the mobile accessible admin functions now, and launching key features in this area this week. I appreciate the other items and we will focus on those as well.

### Great system for scheduling and invoicing

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: Claire G.

- Company size: 11-50 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years
- Reviewed: May 2025
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review.

A reliable system to manage staff and scheduling for NDIS providers. The customer service is excellent.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 3/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

I like that it is not just a timesheet software but also a billing software and record keeping for workers and clients. Customer service on the chat function and availability of people on there is fantastic.

#### Cons

Integration doesn't work as well as it could - it often drops things off. I still have to download and upload files to ensure integrity. Also, it's got very expensive for small to medium sized businesses.

#### Reasons for choosing ShiftCare

At the time Shiftcare was a reasonable price - albeit not the cheapest - for the features it had.

#### Vendor response

Thanks for taking the time to provide your feedback. We would welcome the opportunity to hear from you in relation to which integration drops out, so that we can investigate and resolve - can you please contact our support team and escalate this issue? In relation to pricing - We haven't changed our pricing, it remains the same.

I wish I had never met this company. Truly the worst business decision of my life. Stay away. You have been warned.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 1/5
- Customer support: 1/5

#### Pros

The UI is pretty good for a home health agency scheduling software and the price was attractive to me

#### Cons

Everything. But my biggest issue is they over promise in the sales process and tell you they can do everything you want and then when you go live, it’s a complete utter disaster.

#### Reasons for choosing ShiftCare

I wish I hadn’t made the decision. I have regretted it ever since.

#### Reasons for switching to ShiftCare

I went back to WellSky. So much better as a product and company.

Overall I am very satisfied with ShiftCare. You won't find a single system out there that won't incur feedback with personal preferences and I think overall, ShiftCre has nailed it.Notes and communication is should be easily recorded and separated, for example keep shift notes, incidents and case notes separate.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 4/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

Incredibly simple to use, it syncs with accounting systems so well. It has been very easy to use and navigate and very minimal training required to use it. The app is very easy to use also, I love the constant support and information provided by ShiftCare and very rarely are there technical issues if any at all.Some systems over complicate things with their set outs and when there are too many options and functions it makes it overwhelming and that's why I love the simplicity of ShiftCare.I also find the colours great, I can be sensitive to certain colours being too bright or when there are too many colours it can also be overwhelming and I think ShiftCare has found the perfect balance.I love that ShiftCare simplifies everything and does a lot of the work for you. The reporting system is incredibly simple and easy to use as well.

#### Cons

I love how you can add things to the system like forms ect to work with your in-house documents. It would be great if there was a bulk upload for documents to save time.The schedule when opened should reflect the current week to avoid rostering errors.I also feel that shift care is slightly too expensive for app only users as well.

#### Reasons for choosing ShiftCare

Simple functionality and great automatic processes. The Payroll and Invoicing and billing financial calculations are fantastic.

#### Vendor response

Hi Karen, thank you for your review of ShiftCare. We're really thrilled that you find our system simple to use. Your suggestions regarding bulk document uploads, schedule visibility, and pricing are noted. We're glad you chose ShiftCare and thank you for your support!

### Empowering Care with Convenience: A Review of Shift Care

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: Jade N.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Individual & Family Services
- Company size: 2-10 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months
- Reviewed: August 2023
- Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered

In summary, Shift Care stands as a valuable tool that simplifies the process of delivering support services. Its user-friendliness, efficient communication features, and mobile app contribute to its appeal. However, the disparity between the basic and pro versions, especially considering the financial feasibility for a small business, raises some concerns. Despite this, your dedication to assisting individuals with disabilities shines through, and it's clear that you prioritize their well-being above all else.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

Shift Care offers an incredibly user-friendly experience, ensuring that users can easily access the support they need. The quick and efficient ways to connect with your staff demonstrate your dedication to providing prompt assistance. The inclusion of a mobile app is a fantastic touch, enhancing communication with staff members and streamlining the process of getting help.

#### Cons

While Shift Care has a lot to offer, there are some limitations to the basic version when compared to the pro version. For a small business like Just Support, which operates with four staff members, the affordability of the pro version might be a concern. It's disappointing to note that a key feature that could greatly improve efficiency is missing from the basic version. This could potentially hinder the overall experience for both your team and the people you're supporting.

#### Vendor response

Hi Jade! Thank you for your review. We're pleased that you value our dedication to quality service and convenience, especially with our mobile app. We acknowledge your concerns about the disparity between the basic and pro versions and their suitability for small businesses. Your feedback is invaluable, and we're committed to considering it for future enhancements!

for my own use, I would find it too time consuming to enter what I am currently using in my Calendar on a daily basis, to enter notes / meetings / documents this would take too long in Shiftcare for me to utilise at this stage on a daily basis. Brilliant for Carers not for Support Coordinator / Director.

#### Vendor response

### Easy to use software for our private homecare business

- Company size: 2-10 employees

- Reviewed: December 2021

We have only needed to use the online technical assistance to help us understand the software. So far everything has met our needs. Any time that I have emailed a ShiftCare representative, their response has always been efficient, friendly and professional.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

We have found ShiftCare very easy to get started and affordable for start-up businesses like ours. We like the clock-in and out feature for staff members to use and the scheduler is very effective ensuring our client service times don't overlap. The document hub for staff certifications tells us as soon as any staff documents are out of date and we need to follow up. So far we haven't hit any major snags but if we do, I know that the back up customer support is available and efficient. There is plenty of information on the app (What's New on ShiftCare section to keep you informed but also know you can get in contact with the ShiftCare staff anytime and they can help you.

#### Cons

Nothing yet, still learning all the features and tailoring the software to meet our small business needs.

#### Reasons for choosing ShiftCare

We read all the reviews and most current users where happy with the ease of use and customer support so together with the affordable subscription we decided to give ShiftCare a go.
