Great Scheduling Solution from an Employee's perspective

My overall experience I'd say is very satisfactory, I've never had any issues or technical bugs for starters and I've never felt the need to look or ask my employer for a different scheduling solution. I find the overall UI quite engaging and believe users ranging from the tech-savy to the old not so skilled would find it easy to use.

Pros:

I like how it's very user-friendly at least from the perspective of an employee. It has just the right amount of functionalities to make its usage simple and satisfactory.

Cons:

I don't like the mobile application as much as I like the website. Aside from the overall UI, it particularly lacks a functionality which I find to be amazing and time-saving. When specifiying my availability for each week, on the website, you can just copy the availability specified on a previous week for the current week. On the mobile app, this isn't an option from which you can benefit, which makes specifying my availability by phone a considerably time consuming task.

Thanks for leaving us a review! We hope you're getting the most out of Shiftbase to optimise your workforce management. We appreciate the feedback and we're always looking to get better. I've passed on your feedback to our product team!

Applicatie op maat!

In het begin lijkt alles erg onoverzichtelijk. Maar als je de filmpjes bekijkt en eenmaal door hebt hoe de API koppeling werkt, dan haalt het zoveel administratieve rompslomp bij je weg.

Pros:

Shiftbase is overzichtelijk, je kunt het op meerdere manieren en voor verschillende doeleinden gebruiken. Het fijne van Shiftbase is dat je de applicatie volledig kunt inrichten zodat het voor elke organisatie bruikbaar is. Je bent niet verplicht om alle facetten te gebruiken, maar de applicatie laat je vrij om de facetten te gebruiken welke je specifiek voor je eigen organisatie nodig hebt.

Cons:

Enige nadeel is nu nog dat je er geen tweewekelijks 'contract' in kunt verwerken. Dit is vooral handig als je met werknemers te maken hebben die per week verschillende contracturen hebben.

Reasons for choosing Shiftbase

Op basis van de reviews, prijs en de toepasbaarheid voor onze organisatie.

Vendor Response

Dank voor je uitgebreide feedback! Fijn dat de flexibiliteit en toepasbaarheid zo goed bevallen. We nemen je input over het tweewekelijks contract zeker mee!

Shiftbase is customizable & flexible, but easy to use

We were looking for a flexibel tool which allows us to experiment with self-rostering & self-planning. This is all possible with the build-in functions & ability to adjust rights. Now, our whole team is managed on the same platform, so everyone is able to see who's planned in for the day, who's on vacation etc. I hope the app will continue to be refined in the future, and that feedback from customers will be taken into account for the continuous development.

Ratings Breakdown

Functionality

Pros:

The deciding factors for me where: - Flexibility in the assignment of rights to certain groups of users (allows for self-rostering and added flexibility, we use it to add a "flex" group to every team, so everyone can see the roster of another team, without the ability to change something) - The API: helps in tracking employee parameters without being dependent on manual repporting - Ease of use: it's always a challenge to launch a group of people into daily use of the app, and the question remains how the new tool will be introduced and explained. I'm glad shiftbase has a knowledge centre, so one can lookup any questions quite easily

Cons:

- The presentation of the "team roster" isn't all that useful - A lack of options for part-time employees, meaning that the planning of off-days has to be managed with the use of availability, which takes time to put in for each and every employee - Polishing the app: the app is quite useful, but in my opinion it isn't quite as refined as the mean application

Reasons for choosing Shiftbase

Our way of planning can get quite complex, so chosen tool has to be accustomed to that complexity

Reasons for switching to Shiftbase

Flexibility, lack of a controlled environment, presentation, possibilities for integration, accesibility

Absolutely the best software for The Netherlands

Our company has grown considerably and the administration on paper and Excel was no longer sufficient. It now saves 5 hours per month in calculating hours and vacations and planning has become much simpler.

Functionality

Pros:

The program is very clear and easy to understand, especially when compared to other software. It will take a few hours to master, but it is very user friendly and complete. The helpdesk in the Netherlands is perfect. They are always directly accessible and you always have the right person on the line. And everyone knows exactly how everything works and who you are, so within 5 minutes a question is dealt with and a problem solved.

Cons:

Switching to this software simply takes time and attention. And you really need to schedule that. You actually have to take 2 full days to do so. But once everything has been set up, it's absolutely top-notch.

Reasons for choosing Shiftbase

I spent a lot of time (took a total of 3 months) on test versions of 5 providers, but Shiftbase came out the winner. It is clearly the most versatile and efficient personnel software I know.
