Urge Review
Slows me down and is confusing at times due to it provide incorrect information even after refreshing, after redoing someone's availability and reserving it. Still will show incorrect days that are avail, etc.
Pros
Not much.
Cons
There are many glitches. Some employees squares are red or unavail ALL THE TIME. To where I end up having to memorize everyone's availability due to opensimsim shading (grey stripes) on the wrong days, blocking off random days, etc. When the employee is 100% open and able to work in the system. It causes a lot of confusion. Especially for managers that are new that dont know each and everyone's availability. It also is just VERY slow in general. Its not a quick task. I click on a shift and it takes up to 10 seconds to open the shift to edit.

SocialSchedules
SocialSchedules is a great software to use for setting empolyee schedules.
Pros
SocialSchedules allows you to see your workweek schedule at a quick glance and also allows you to see what coworkers are scheduled the same day you are. There is also a chat feature to allow you to send messages to coworkers.
Cons
The chat feature does not do a great job of notifying when someone has sent you a message. A better notification system would make this software perfect.

Great free option for scheduling software with potential for more
I had a great on-boarding session with their training team. They do offer employee data importing as part of their setup but I did it all myself and it wasn’t too bad.
Pros
Super easy to use and set up. It has been as smooth of a transition for our employees One could hope for. Most employees have been able to get it set up and availability updated with no direct instruction other than our expectations.
Cons
A few simple features I would like to see on the app are: view only first initial of last name on printed schedule (privacy issue of employees), hide total hours on printed schedule, select individual rights for remote clock in (paid version).
