Makeshift review
I really like the software because of it's ease of use, particularly with the mobile app and really don't have any issues with it.
PROSThe mobile app is every easy to use and allows our associates to see their schedules and changes plus it allows them to contact other associates for shift changes. It is also very easy to create our weekly schedules.
CONSThe only issue I have with the software (which might be on our IT's side) is when an associate asks for vacation time in Makeshift it does not integrate into ADP like the schedule does.
Vendor Response
Hi Don, thank you for your feedback! We are glad to hear your team has found value in our mobile apps. ADP does not allow us to input time off into their system, however we do offer the ability to sync time off from ADP into MakeShift for scheduling purposes. If you'd like to learn more, please reach out to us at support@makeshift.ca and we would be happy to assist!

Makeshift in Strathmore
Overall experience is very good from the product itself, to the online support.
PROSIntegration was fairy easy, we had lot's of support. Features are easy to use and customize to what our company needs.
CONSOne of the features I would like to see changed is when an employee puts in their availability it shows up on their schedule but if a shift is requested on this day it does not reflect their availability and hours outside of the availability are still scheduled in. I have also found shifts have been put into the wrong schedule from that employee that requested and was granted the shift.
Vendor Response
Thank you so much for your feedback Susan! If you have any difficulties with your schedule, please feel free to reach out to our support team at support@makeshift.ca so we can investigate and correct the issue!

Difficult communication for overtime
Overall good, except with above
PROSIt's easy to see what shifts are open and who's working them
CONSWhen you bid on a shift, you should be able to leave a note with it if there's a special circumstance like only available partial shift or if it would be overtime. This inability is beyond annoying when you have to email a scheduler first before bidding in special circumstances
Vendor Response
Hi Rhon, thank you for your feedback. We will be sure to pass along your comments to our product team for future enhancements to our product! If you have any other comments, please feel free to reach out to support@makeshift.ca.

5 stars!
I've had a great experience using MakeShift. The program is very easy to use and any technical issues are dealt with very quickly.
PROSVery easy to use. Employees love the flexibility of being able to request days off and to switch/pick up shifts with their co-workers. The system has saved our Managers hours of work put in to scheduling and rectifying scheduling conflicts.
CONSAs an admin on the account, I don't have the ability to view the posted/dropped shifts in the same way a regular user on the app has. Having this ability would allow me to anticipate shortages.
Vendor Response
Hi Jennifer, thank you so much for your review. We're glad to hear that you've had a great experience and that your managers have been able to save hours of work! We appreciate your feedback regarding our shift exchange functionality and will let our product team know!

From a Recreation Perspective
Great overall and easy to use.
PROSEasy to schedule staff, love that you can copy schedules to other weeks, payroll download is clear and easy to understand, on site clock in and out feature as we have various work sites, can have different sites, jobs, shift templates.
CONSWould like that is the staff clock in early or out late that there was a quick way to have it match the shift time for hours worked/payroll. Say the shift is 9 to 1 and they clock in at 8:45 and out at 1:05 the timesheet shows 4.25 hours instead of the 4 they were scheduled for.
Vendor Response
Hi Christy, thank you for your comments! We do allow you to round clock in and outs to the scheduled start and end time. If you would like instructions on how to do so, please reach out to support@makeshift.ca!
