You have to pay for admins, managers or approvers even if they are not tracking their own hours.

The best employee scheduling  tool that is really easy to use. The great ultimate workforce manager.

We are at a point where we are looking at other options that might be more user friendly.

Customer service is horrendous, and the product is unreliable.

Gives plenty of info which the business requires. Very happy with the product.

It is so easy to track the payments to each employee once they have been set. The customer service and support are very responsive.

Customer service has been outstanding the few times it has been needed as the program is incredibly easy to use. We LOVE this program and this company.

Price and original willingness to help set up company for use.

I love that it flows so well with Gusto. I truly enjoy how easy it is to clock in and out on a daily basis.

Easy to set-up with no costly IT service visits.

The product messed up our payroll month after month.

I also like having the ability to give up a shift and offer it to other employees.

We use the journal options to keep track of items for review during our performance reviews. Love love love the integration with Quickbooks and Intuit Payroll, makes life super easy.

It has great integration options for payroll, and customer service was easily accessible.

It's simple to use and gives me instant access to everything I need. I love how quick and easy it is to set up a template and allocate shifts.

It has amazing functions that make easier to process rosters, payments, management and control of staff.

Fantastic, great easy to use app, and amazing customer service.

Their software cause issue after issue with our payroll. Employees getting paid the wrong amount.

Connects with our payroll system with extreme ease which is a huge bonus. Photo clock in is very nice.

Has so far been a great experience with excellent customer support and very easy to use interface for all our users(of all ages).

Given that I'm so furious with this company and how it allows its reps to treat customers, customer service rep's strategy didn't work.

Deputy has a pretty good system in place for tracking projects and cost accounting.

It makes very easy to manage employees and their time off. The time management feature is very useful and allows to organize projects better.

We are only using this software for time tracking (not scheduling) and we have a small set of folks that need to track their hours, so this was perfect for us at $2.50/user/month.

Having troubles in updating the sick/carer's leave directly into MYOB (Deputy is not supportive)and case sensitive as well.

Comprehensive functionality and beautifully packaged to make it easy and intuitive for all users which is key to ensure staff adopt it well.

Easy to use, intuitive, reasonably priced, good tool for communicating, easy for workers to put shifts out for grabs, easy to schedule unavailability, nice dashboard.

I love the daily summary. It's a quick look at who's working and in what departments.

It was a bit complicated to figure out from the administrator side. I was having trouble with it and I don't normally have trouble with setting up software.

The staff can find thier own coverage and trade or give shifts away. I like that you can customize so much in this system.

It is hard to read graphically. It can be hard to understand.

The only thing better than the user-friendly interface is the customer service.

You are able to schedule time off, view schedules, and respond to real-time requests for OT. The system is really great for going paperless.

Nursing admin and charge nurses are able to edit schedule in real time. This software is super user friendly.

I enjoyed the software, but I believe there are some better options out there.

It makes it easy for staff to sign up and giveaway shifts. Its nice that is sends out notifications when coverage is needed.

Crew schedule and management of personnel for shift work at Fire department.

This scheduling program is easy to use and can also help to keep staff certifications organized if you utilize that piece of the program.

This is our first computer scheduling software, we went from paper to this software. The transition was super easy and our staff love how easy it is to use.

Several reasons in no particular order. Customer support, Aladtec understands what each user needs individually and did not sell me a cut and paste/one size fits some kind of product.

It is easy to use and navigate. The employees love being able to self schedule.

This would be a great problem solver for our spreadsheet and paper-based time and attendance system.

It's pretty difficult to make your schedule. Once you pick a day, you're stuck with it even if the schedule isn't finalized.

Aladtec has taken a significant amount of that off the supervisors plates and given the staff more of a say in their work lives.

Many systems are easy for the admin staff to run, because that’s who the provider is selling the software to, but the member users hate it because it is hard to use or not intuitive.

This was a major road block for me. If I don't get it...my people won't get it.
