- Our team management features enable us to organize 24/7 shifts of our medical dispatch center and make sure that each emergency call is addressed promptly.
- Requesting time off, resting and publishing the schedules and user messaging was all a breeze with Sling.
- It’s simplified planning QA inspections, helping me ensure we’re covered for critical production runs while not crossing those scheduling paths.

Overall, Sling has made my work life much more organized. I use it daily to check my shifts and clock in. It’s very user-friendly, and I didn't really need a "tutorial" to figure out how to use it. It’s a solid 4-star app—it does exactly what it needs to do for scheduling, though a smoother mobile experience would make it perfect.

#### Ratings breakdown

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

#### Pros

I love that I get instant alerts when a new schedule is posted or if a shift changes, so I never have to guess when I'm working. It's really easy to put a shift up for grabs or trade with a coworker without having to text everyone individually. Having the schedule, my time clock, and team messages all in one app is much better than using multiple platforms.

#### Cons

The app can sometimes be a bit slow to load or "cramped" on a smaller screen compared to the desktop version. Occasionally, there’s a slight delay in notifications or syncing when my manager makes a last-minute change. On the mobile app, it can sometimes be hard to see the "big picture" of the whole team's schedule for the week compared to looking at it on a computer.

### Time and Efficiency packed in one

I have been using Sling the past three years for building my teams schedule, and using it the past year for the time-clock function. I wish I would have been using it for both much earlier. Still a great value for the resources it provides. I encourage all medical offices to utilize it to stream line communication between management and staff.

#### Ratings breakdown

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

#### Pros

I have multiple work locations, and what I love most about Sling is that it allows all three of these locations to operate under one profile rathe than having 3 separate accounts. The platform is easy to learn, and very user friendly. I doe like that it allows for scheduling, as well as a time clock function: much easier to have it all under one app for managing my team.

#### Cons

I don't like how it cost more the more the more users you have on the platform. It used to not be that way.

#### Reasons for choosing Sling

cost vs what you get for the expense each month

#### Reasons for switching to Sling

ease of use of the entire platform, as well as the fact we were already using it for employee schedule.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

Easy to setup and use. Employees also like ease of use and overall simplicity. Scheduling was great, especially the labor cost percentage based on projected sales.

#### Cons

### Sling is Great

It's great. We switched over from a different scheduling program, and there was no learning curve. The integration with Toast is ultimately why we chose it.

#### Ratings breakdown

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

#### Pros

It's very easy to use. Syncs back and forth with Toast with sales and time punches used in toast. The data sync helps with scheduling to projected budgets. Employees like the app platform. Looks clean and is streamlined.

#### Cons

There really isn't anything that I dislike about it. The only thing I find annoying is that employees are sorted by first name only--and I can't adjust to sort by last name.

#### Reasons for switching to Sling

The intagration with Toast was the main reason why. Happy we did

### Adaptable Platform

- Overall rating: 4/5
- Reviewer: Maggie S.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Education Management
- Company size: 11-50 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months

Sling is a very useful and adaptable app for scheduling. Want to let people switch their own shifts? Turn on the setting! Want to approve each switch change? You can do that too. Want to look at a few people's schedules? It is very easy to do so.

#### Ratings breakdown

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

#### Pros

Sling has a feature in which you can view your own schedule or you can view the entire schedule, including other people's. This makes it very easy to see what you want to see - your schedule, or who is working next, before you, or on a shift you might prefer. Sling also provides an ability to switch shifts with individuals rather than everyone on the team which reduces clutter to those who cannot work that shift.

#### Cons

There is not much about Sling that I did not like other than when multiple schedules are input there are occasional errors. Sometimes the shifts at my job overlap for different responsibilities, which we schedule into Sling. When scheduling those roles or switching shifts among people, Sling sometimes errors out or states that there is an overlap multiple times before allowing us to schedule.

#### Reasons for switching to Sling

Connectteam did not offer the features we wanted to start using.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

The ease of use. It was easy for us to figure out how to use and for the staff to get acquainted with.

#### Cons

That I couldn’t easily share task lists with the rest of the team that was working. We also didn’t have the functionality to have a document repository that was app based for the staff- the app was limited.

#### Reasons for choosing Sling

Because it would automate what we were doing manually in Google sheets.

### Sling is used to assist in co-ordinating our small teaching team.

- Overall rating: 4/5

Sling is adequate for our small language centre to use for some basic scheduling. It's much better than our old way of keeping track of it in an Excel spreadsheet. Overall, the price is good for the service we receive, but I wish we had more education specific features such as knowing which instructor was teaching the language level we were at.

#### Ratings breakdown

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

#### Pros

The swap shifts save literally hours of my life. If teachers want to swap classes, they do so themselves within the app. Also, it's nice to see who's available in case I need to call someone up to fill in for my teacher. I can use the mobile app to view the schedule between lessons without having to get to my desk.

#### Cons

Occasionally, notifications are delayed which led to confusion when one of my colleagues' classes was rescheduled. Syncing of calendar does not always work well with our Google Calendar. Also desire it to be compatible with our student management system.

#### Pros

I really like how easy is is to schedule people, put up available shifts for employees and the reminders so people know to come in to work. It makes my job easier and gives me some peace of mind.

#### Cons

I have a couple issues.My least favorite thing is the mobile app, I said before it's just clunky and doesn't feel like a mobile app.I also need a way to view pdf's on the app without it downloading to your phone.And lastly it would make everything so much easier if I could have an hourly rate and a day rate option for employee's.That would solve all my issues and make me love using this scheduling system. I think I could even get some live music venues in the area to use it too because there isnt a program that does all of those things and your system is already really easy to use.

#### Reasons for choosing Sling

The layout of the program on desktop and the easy way to set everything up made me go with sling.

### A Game Changer for Our Smaller Company

Overall experience with Sling has been great. As I said earlier, its deployment has brought our company into a new age with communication, timeclocks, and scheduling.

#### Ratings breakdown

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

#### Pros

I originally went looking for an easy, free scheduling app. I happened to find Sling and immediately loved the way I could customize positions and make schedule templates. I then saw how Sling offered a timeclock, which our company really needed. We relied on Excel sheets for our employees, so using a timeclock app was like bringing us out of the dark ages. We use the Newsfeed all the time to communicate policy and procedure changes as well. It has changed the way we interface with our employees.

#### Cons

I would really love to see more customization for things like the timeclocks and working hours. For example, we are an umbrella of companies. We have physical properties that are staffed with managers and assistants (Great Atlantic Management), we have a Home Office staff (Great Atlantic Companies), and we have a maintenance staff (Great Atlantic Contracting). We also have some properties that are unmanned, so we have no computers at that location. So, it would be fantastic if we can choose the mobile timeclock for just certain employees (like our Contracting crew and the unmanned helpers). Our Contracting crew also works 10 hour days, so when they request a vacation day, it needs to be a 10hr block, but I can't tell the system to use 10hrs for this position vs 8hrs for that position unless I choose the "partial day" option, which cuts down on the convenience of the app. It would be GREAT if the "Position" option allowed more features, like enable different timeclocks, enable different working times, etc. Most companies have different departments that require different hours, etc., so being able to customize this would be very helpful.

#### Reasons for choosing Sling

Timesheet Mobile was very customizable, so I could choose who was going to use the mobile timeclock vs a kiosk but there was not a real communication hub with them. If they had offered that feature, I probably would have went with them instead.

I think the best way to describe our experience with Sling is by relaying the following series of events. We were aware that we were losing money due to inefficient scheduling, so much so that our board of directors authorized us to spend $500 for a consultant to come provide us with a better way to operate. While the consultant had some decent ideas, they were not actionable. We decided to try out Sling. Now that we have started using it and upgraded to the premium version, we are spending less annually to have all our scheduling handled by Sling than we paid a consultant for a day's worth of work. The cost of implementing Sling was far, far outweighed by the savings that it brought us.

#### Ratings breakdown

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

#### Pros

Sling has taken away the need for us to have a dedicated employee spend 15-20 hours a week on employee scheduling. We are a relatively small non-profit, and as such we have multiple employees who routinely have to work outside their specialty/field of expertise in order to keep us afloat. One area that we have consistently had issues with is scheduling and tracking employees and volunteers. With multiple sites and multiple managers, we were losing money because we were doubling up on many shifts. It was not until we implemented Sling that we were able to effectively manage our employees schedule to provide us with the most return on our investment and our customers with the best service.

#### Cons

We started out using the free version of Sling. Because we have less than 50 employees, this suited us fine at first, but there were options we did not have access to. We quickly realized that the limitations imposed by the free version could easily be solved by upgrading to the minimally priced premium version.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

What I like the most about Sling is... I used to text message all of my employees to ler ask if they can work and then again to let them know when they are working! I no longer need to do that. They all know if they cant work they do the "Time Off request" if they can never work on such day they do "Unavailible" The natrue of our business are only events so we are somewhere different every event. Sling connects the address to the date as well. Its just been a total Game Changer a fee that we can afford!!

#### Cons

This is a hard one! I really cant think of what I like least other than it needs to be intgrated with Apple Calendar, and the notification glitch I mentioned earlier.

#### Reasons for choosing Sling

Price and how much it offered. Also I am not the most patient person and I felt that Sling was pretty easy to learn!

I really appreciate that there is an accessible employee database.

We currently have different categories in which to post pertinent information. It is helpful in sharing information with the team when we are all not present.

#### Pros

Love the fact that I can look out months out to see who I have off and when. It let's those who are on vacation know what their schedule is without calling the store. We can communicate with our employee's when we have a store meeting, if we have shifts

#### Cons

My one and only issue is the cost. As a General Manager of one store, the overall company does not pay to use Sling so I am responsible for the bill. I am sure though, that a company as a whole would not have an issue with the cost.
