Time saver timesaver
Save time consistently.
Pros
It's simple, to the point, and quick. Time preferences and time off requests are easy. Everything works seamlessly. Shift blocks are super customizable. All of my employees have enjoyed having the schedule close at hand.
Cons
The ads are bothersome but not horrible. Honestly can't think of much else that is problematic. Cons are not something you think about while using Shedwool!

A truly free app that does what it is supposed to do!
Pros
Ability for personnel to manage time and shifts by SHEDDING and picking up shifts with manager approval on the fly
Cons
Wish I could manage and export data to spreadsheet software like Excel or Googlesheets. Also wish we could clock in and clock out with software

Thanks so much! We are launching our premium version very soon, at a small monthly subscription fee, and clock in/out, and import/export are top priorities! We will also maintain a free "lite" version of the app. Currently you can create .pdfs of the schedule, and filter as needed, if that helps at all. We'd love to talk more about how we can improve ShedWool for your needs. Thanks so much for the review. All our best, ShedWool

Great App for my small business
Fantastic, I unexpectedly spoke to the owner of ShedWool personally when I had an issue when I started using his app. He was fantastic to deal with and is the reason I won't use any other scheduling app.
Pros
It was easy to use, and my workers had access to their schedules right from their phones.
Cons
It's hard to schedule days off, also would be nice to still be able to print out schedule to post for everyone to see.
