- I like that it is not just a timesheet software but also a billing software and record keeping for workers and clients.

- 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.

### 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.

### Supporting Students with Disabilities

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: Kira G.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Higher Education
- Company size: 11-50 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months
- Reviewed: October 2026
- Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered

At Julia’s Learning at Wingate University, we support students with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (IDD) through a three-year certificate program focused on academics, on-campus employment, residential living, and life skills for long-term independence. Even for higher education inclusion programs that fall outside ShiftCare’s standard market, its adaptability, real-time safety monitoring via Care Signals, and AI documentation tools make it an invaluable asset. It saves hours of administrative overhead, keeps campus leadership informed, and directly enhances our students' college experience.

#### Ratings breakdown

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

#### Pros

Streamlined Scheduling Across Campus: Support for our students spans dormitories, classrooms, dining facilities, and campus job sites. Managing over 30 staff members used to be a complex manual task. ShiftCare’s scheduling tools are intuitive and have drastically cut down our planning time compared to previous software. Intuitive Mobile App for Support Staff: Staff can easily claim shifts, clock in and out, and view previous progress notes before starting a shift. This pre-shift context ensures smooth handoffs between daytime support staff and evening resident mentors. AI Coach & Progress Notes: The built-in AI progress note guidance helps staff write clear, structured notes efficiently. This is not only help to leadership staff, but it is teaching our student workers improved communication skills. Time-Saving AI Summaries: Compiling student progress reports for families used to take an entire day or more of manually pulling notes. With AI Client Summaries, generating accurate, comprehensive updates for parents and guardians now takes just an afternoon. Care Signals Feature: ShiftCare's real-time "Care Signals" risk-detection system is truly life-changing. Staff can immediately flag incidents, behavioral changes, or wellness concerns across campus, giving leadership instant visibility into student safety at any given moment. Student Empowerment via Family Portal: The portal has significantly reduced anxiety for our students. Being able to log in, see their daily schedule, and know exactly which support staff member will be working with them gives them confidence and peace of mind.

#### Cons

Dedicated Family Portal Mobile App: We strongly hope to see a standalone mobile app for the Family Portal. Navigating the web interface on mobile devices can be challenging for our students. Deeper Google Ecosystem Integrations: We would love to see native, built-in integrations with Google products - specifically direct syncing with Google Calendar from Family Portal schedules and easier Google AI compatibility.

#### Reasons for choosing ShiftCare

ShiftCare had the most features and was the easiest to use.

#### Reasons for switching to ShiftCare

We needed more features and wanted a program that was easier to use.

### 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.

### 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

### 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.

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
- Functionality: 2/5

#### 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.

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.

### ShiftCare Review

- Industry: Individual & Family Services
- Company size: Self-Employed
- Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years
- Reviewed: May 2025
- Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered

The customer service has been exceptional, the software is great value for money and the experience using ShiftCare has been overwhelmingly positive.

#### Ratings breakdown

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

#### Pros

ShiftCare has been great for keeping the client documents secure and easy to access for clients and staff. Scheduling is easy with a good amount of customisability, allowing me to add a good amount of detail to shifts for workers. ShiftCare linking to Xero has been great for streamlining invoicing, which has saved plenty of admin time. I have not had any issues using the app yet after over 12 months. I am confident that if there were any issues with the app or any of the software that it would be solved quickly. The customer service has been very responsive, efficient and the staff have been friendly, helpful and their service has been above and beyond.

#### Cons

There are times that I have been unsure of how to complete something in the software or the app. However, there are plenty of resources that can be accessed on the ShiftCare website and on YouTube to support learning how to use the software. The customer service has also been very helpful.

#### Vendor response

Hi Scott, Thanks so much for your kind words! We're really glad ShiftCare has helped make scheduling, document access, and invoicing easier for you, and that our Xero integration has saved you time. It’s great to hear you’ve had a smooth run with the app, and your trust in our support team means a lot. We also appreciate your note about learning the software, we’re glad our guides and videos have helped, and our team’s always here when you need a hand. Thanks again for being part of the ShiftCare community! Warmly, The ShiftCare Team

### Fantastic System

- Industry: Individual & Family Services

- Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months
- Reviewed: May 2023
- Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered

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!

### Simple and easy to use shift management software

Its ease of use with minimal training or direction required is advantageous. Allows users to easily record shift times, progress notes and expenses. Notifications are a helpful feature for admins when managing/reviewing shifts.

#### Cons

Overall, ShiftCare is a great tool in streamlining operations and maintain our records.

#### Ratings breakdown

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

#### 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. We also like that we are able to manage who sees what documents.

#### Cons

The new forms feature could use some improvements. For instance, we sent out a staff survey and the responses did not come with a summary of all responses which could have been useful to see the most voted responses, and not have to go through each response. Also, for questions with multiple possible choices, the record comes up with no response selected. These were already reported to chat support. It would be great to be able to use keywords when searching for particular messages in the Communication tool especially when we would like to review past messages. Also, for documents, it would be great to be able to have another category like "N/A" and "Pending" aside from "Not Specified". For instance, in Compliance, we added "Visa Documentation", where we upload copies of staff's visa copies. However, not all visa holders have sent in visa copies and other staff are Australian citizens so no visa required, however, for both kinds of staff, their Visa Documentation indicates "not specified". It would be great if we could tick "N/A" for staff who are Australians and "Pending" for visa holders. Lastly, it would be great for office staff to not have to share an account to save on costs.

Hi Loris, thank you very much for your positive review. We appreciate your feedback.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5

#### Pros

What I like most is keeping track of schedules to make it easier for staff to login. If there are shifts needed to be covered there's an option for staff to respond to and makes it easier then contacting staff individually. I especially like the note writing, at the end of shifts a lot easier for staff to write progress notes at the end of each shift allowing them to do before going home.

#### Cons

Sometimes, it doesn't allow change of addresses.

#### Reasons for choosing ShiftCare

Userfriendly and ease of systems

### Good product for the money you spend, major drawbacks but overall good quality.

- Overall rating: 4/5
- Reviewer: Hayden H.

- Industry: Mental Health Care
- Company size: 11-50 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years
- Reviewed: July 2022
- Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered

It's a hard start because it has so many elements to it but I think it'll be that way with any shift management app. I like that support is easy to contact and very responsive but it can be quite a pain and frustration dealing with all the issues that pop up sometimes. Worth the price and they're always developing new features which I like.

#### Ratings breakdown

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

#### Pros

Shiftcare is quite easy to introduce to users, has a good pricing structure that makes it very reasonable unlike per client software, as well as generally being responsive. The people working it generally know the app very well and worst case the higher ups can get involved to problem solve which is quite good knowing the support to resolve issues is there, which I haven't experienced with bigger tech firms.

#### Cons

Really niggly issues that shouldn't be an issue end up being a massive issue and taking a lot of admin time. Like pricing details not updating on newer shifts, invoicing issues (NDIA reject the smallest error and it's digging for a needle in a haystrack with Shiftcare so I invoice manually which takes a whole day). Some apps generate service agreements which is a huge drawback for this and adds so much admin time. The niggling issues are a nightmare some days, like adding users to Xero.

#### Reasons for choosing ShiftCare

Pricing model

#### Vendor response

Thank you Hayden - some good food for thought which I've shared with our dev team. We take pride in our software being simple and user friendly so any inefficiencies or frustrations are priorities for us to solve.

### ShiftCare Review from Making Waves Support Services

- 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

Over-all very positive.

#### Ratings breakdown

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

#### Pros

ShiftCare seems to be a great place which offers many critical features to a company, all relatively easy to access and helpful. It integrates with Xero which is amazing as it helps with invoices which are otherwise painful. Sammy Wilkins was amazing and helpful and walked My partner and I through most issues, I couldn't speak highly enough about her and she is one of the reasons we have chose this platform.

#### Cons

Integration of Xero is a bit clunky and requires a bit of help to understand what's going on and where. It takes a little searching around areas to find things but there's probably not much that can be done about this.

#### Vendor response

Hi Huxsten, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a great review! We are glad you had a great experience with Sammy and will pass this on to the wider team :-) Appreciate your feedback regarding Xero integration, we are always working to improve the platform so will take this onboard.

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

Not enough automation, with profile - where plan is half NDIA and half plan manage.Making set up very long process.When open, the calendar is not current week.When adding staff important documents, document can't be open up to view to ease check up & input of expiry date.There are still some errors in scheduling repeat shifts.2 weeks bulk invoice is not good - should be 4 weeks.I thought I will safe alot of time when I use shift care, but it's still require alot of man power due to the lack of automation.
