You dont need anything else when you have TIme Forge
My experience has been great. [sensitive content hidden] and his team have been awesome in making sure that we have been taken care of and learning everything that we need to learn to become TF masters.
PROSTimeForge allows a user to use Time Forge in their own way. No two people are going to use TF the same because of the variety of options in reporting, viewing, schedule writing and others.
CONSThe app. This app is very basic in it's functionality and doesn't allow you to do much without the aide of the online interface.

Time Forge Review
WE were wasting a ton of money on employees taking longer than scheduled breaks. Also we did not have a system to track PTO efficiently and with Time Forge we have that in place now.
PROSThe Program is very easy to use and was very easy to roll out. There was nothing complicated about program at all. IF three were questions the support staff was always willing to do anything needed to resolve any issue that may arise.
CONSThere was only one feature that could be better and that was the ability slid schedules on a schedule bar to accept the changes that needed to be made on a schedule. Everything else works GREAT!
Reason for choosing TimeForge
The Company has a Great support staff and the owners of the company are involved in the day to day operation of the company and really cares about all of their customers.
Reasons for switching to TimeForge
IT was a huge cost savings and the ability to do thousand more things than we were able to do with ATD.
Vendor Response
Joe - thank you for the kind words! We appreciate your feedback on the scheduling slider - have you seen the new slide-around-shift tool? We've asked your team lead to contact you and walk you through how to use it - we think it's a game-changer (but we're pretty biased!) We'd love your feedback to see if it does what you need. As always, please don't hesitate to reach out to support@timeforge.com with any suggestions on how we can continue to improve our platform. Thanks again!

TimeForge Works! It's Cost Effective and Support is Great.
The Team at TimeForge is great. [sensitive content hidden], the Onboarding and Training Team are great to work with. They understand retail needs and retail users. Their Service and Support is great. We like the software and the people.
PROSEmployee Scheduling can be complex to set-up, on-board and train users to use, but the Team at TimeForge knows retail, designed the system for retail users to be easy to use and the schedules are very accurate. When I compared the features, functions, on-boarding Support and cost... TimeForge Wins!
CONSNo Scheduling system is perfect but TimeForge works, easily adapts to user needs. Because it's fit-for-purpose in retail and and the workflow makes sense it makes it easy to implement.

Saves time!
Love that it makes employee scheduling easier and less time consuming than doing it manually.
PROSIt saves time for typical HR tasks such as scheduling and time management.
CONSDislike that it has very limited access through mobile.
Vendor Response

Great platform
Overall experience with TimeForge has been fantastic, I can't say enough about the team. They readily jump in to help with any issues we have and overall made this a very smooth transition. This was a drastic change for our company to say the least and they really worked to make it seamless.
PROSThe integration of the program was excellent. I really enjoy the ability to view each store easily as a snapshot, the reporting functions are incredibly helpful, and I love that we can focus on labor tracking and scheduling.
CONSThis was a big integration for our company, and we were able to combine a few platforms which was great. The issue with combining multiple platforms is that sometimes you lose features that you enjoyed. We have a few areas that are lacking as we moved from a LMS to an HRIS system which changed the amount of interaction on the hiring side. We also lost a few of our main reporting functions for new hires. The TimeForge team has been extremely helpful though in working to find solutions.
Reason for choosing TimeForge
We chose TImeForge because we felt it was the most up to date product, within our budgeting needs, and had all the features we needed. The team at TimeForge was a great bonus in utilizing the project. We had a tight deadline and they made it happen on time.
Reasons for switching to TimeForge
We were looking for a system that was all in one that could help with labor predictions, scheduling, and optimization for our operations team and our human resources departement.
Vendor Response
Thank you so much for leaving us such a detailed and thoughtful review, Melissa! We're humbled by your praise, and it's been an absolute pleasure serving you during your big transition. We'll keep doing our best to make sure you always have a great experience with TimeForge!

Fantastic team & product!
We could not have had a better implementation team! As we were a startup, opening a Kitchen & Market mid pandemic, we had a lot of ground to cover. We are so grateful to have [SENSITIVE CONTENT] on our side leading the charge with our implementation. They are team players and go above and beyond to ensure for seamless experience. We could not have asked for anyone better. Not only that, they are a blast to work with! Thank you!
PROSTimeForge is intuitive and extremely user friendly. We love the AI technology that helps us make timely data driven decisions on one of our highest operating expenses. Labor scheduling and management can be very complex. We appreciate all the automated features that helps us stay aware of our blind spots and keeps us focused on our Guests. We also love that we can automate and track progress on punch lists, take performance notes, manage our food safety certifications by shift and more! It's evident that this software was built with the end user in mind.
CONSNone- the software met and exceeded our expectations
Reason for choosing TimeForge

Timeforge is worth the money.
Over all Timeforge is the best, and is the easiest software to use. I have tried others but by far its the best.
PROSThe best thing about the software is the ease of doing payroll, and the way it keeps employees from punching in early trying to get overtime.
CONSThe finger print reader doesn't work for everbody. Also the break punch in and out doesn't work right.

Vendor Response
Thanks so much for your feedback, Tommy! We're humbled by your praise, and we appreciate your letting us know about your difficulties with the timeclock. We usually find that a couple of people per location have fingertips that are too callused or smooth to be understood by a scanner, but there are a few things we can do to help alleviate that and make it easier for employees to clock in/out. I've let our support team know, so that they can reach out with some options for you. Regarding the break punch, if you're using the Biopad, we recently made some improvements and fixes that might address your issue. Our timeclock guru will reach out ASAP to make sure your device has been updated to the latest version and to get you any other support you need to make sure you have the smoothest experience possible.

TimeForge for Restaurants
TimeForge has been a massive help when it came to training and on boarding. They have continued their support throughout our entire engagement with them and have always stepped up to the plate to help us with anything we need.
PROSTimeForge has been a game changer in our company with scheduling and labour management. It is allowed us to refine our processes for scheduling and to assess business volume levels right down to the details we were never able to get to you previously.
CONSThe training curve can be a bit longer for new team members and for the management level. But once they understand the software it is a game changer.
Vendor Response
Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a review, Ally! We're so grateful that you found us a decade ago and trusted us to help your teams. We definitely appreciate your comment on the training curve and internally, we've already been working on some updates to guide new users through the application more smoothly (so that they can get to the "game changer" level asap!). If you or your team have any other thoughts on what we can do to improve our software or service, we'd love to hear them at support@timeforge.com (or reach out to your team lead, of course!). You've always taken the time to share feedback and ideas with us, and we are so much better for it. Thanks again!

Time Forge - Easy to use for Time, Attendance and Scheduling
Timeforge jumped in to help when our prior time keeping program failed. They were quick to respond and help us with putting a time and attendance program in place. They have have great customer service and answer all of my teams question in a timely manner. Their development staff has been great in helping us through the on boarding of Timeforge and molding it to best fit our needs.
PROSIt is easy to use and almost plug and play. Customer Service is top notch and quick to respond. Very customizable for your needs
CONSToo many available reports and can be a struggle to find the specific one you are looking for.

Vendor Response
Thanks so much for the kind words, Aaron! We're humbled by your feedback and definitely appreciate your comments on our reporting module. TimeForge adds new reports based on what customers need, and because of that, the list of available reports continues to grow all the time. Reading your (and others') feedback, we can see where you're coming from and the need to make some changes on how reports are presented. Internally, we've started planning out some updates to make our reporting features more approachable for new users.

Great business to partner up with!
We love the new online boarding feature for adding new team members. Timeforge is our filing cabinet and now we can fully say this is paperless for us!

TimeForge for the win!
The TimeForge team is a very attentive and customer-focused operation. There was never an issue that they haven't resolved for us in a timely manner. They are always looking for ways to improve their product for each customer's individual needs.
PROSTimeForge's UI is very user-friendly. It's very easy to learn and teach to others. We have always seen accurate reporting and forecasting with this product and I would recommend it to anyone.
CONSThe only negative feedback that I can provide would be around enterprise-wide messaging. I would like to see more granularity in messaging recipients. The only options are to send to the whole company or individually pick the stores/roles I need to contact.
Vendor Response
Robert - thank you so much for taking the time out of your busy day to leave us a review! We really appreciate it. We also wanted to let you know that your feedback about messaging was received and passed on to the appropriate team. If you can think of any other areas for improvement, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at support@timeforge.com. We value your feedback and welcome it anytime.

TimeForge makes Time and Attendance easy
Our old Time and Attendance system was unreliable. Also, all it did was keep up with employee attendance. You weren't able to schedule, keep track of PTO, forecast sales, and many other things. All of these were fixed by switching to TimeForge.
PROSEmployees particularly like to see what their estimated paycheck will be based on what they have worked. Management finds making schedules and keeping up with PTO and attendance to be easier than other programs we have used in the past. Integration into our POS to enable sales forecasting was simple and non-invasive. I would recommend TimeForge to anyone looking for a Scheduling, PTO tracking, or Time and Attendance system.
CONSThe only improvement I would recommend would be communication in the app. It would be useful to be able to send messages to employees and have them reply directly to them through the app or website.
Vendor Response
Adam - Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We're humbled by your kind words and definitely appreciate your comments on the ability to reply to messages from the mobile app. That's an improvement we've had slated on the roadmap and we look forward to releasing that with the next major updates to the mobile apps. We've also notified your TimeForge team lead to make sure we show you how employees can respond inside the website to messages that they receive, and see if that helps close that gap in the short-term. If you have any other thoughts on what we can do to improve our software, we'd love to hear them at support@timeforge.com. We grow because of feedback from power-users like you - it's how we're able to help so many retailers overcome workforce management challenges. Thanks again!
