“The user-friendliness [of 7shifts], as well as integration with Square being able to talk with sales and pull data to look at labor percentages…was very beneficial in my mind."
“Scheduling employees is tricky, especially with the higher turnaround of the service industry. 7shifts is a great labor cost control and communication tool. It allows us to find replacements and react to unexpected changes with immediate updates to our employees. With 7shifts, we’ve become much more streamlined in scheduling and can use our valuable time elsewhere.”
"The 7shifts Enterprise Dashboard has helped us view and track our entire organization’s performance quickly and easily. Before it would take us hours to put together a weekly report for all our locations. Now, thanks to 7shifts -- and its integration with our Toast POS -- we can pull the data in a matter of seconds, helping our business focus on efficiency and growth."
"It has saved me a ton of time. From schedule making, managing staff availability, to payroll. My staff also loves that they can easily communicate and get shifts covered when needed. Overall, I'd have to say 7shifts has dramatically improved my scheduling process."
"The way we scheduled in the past was with pen and paper. This made it difficult because staff would have to either phone or come into the store to see when they work. They would also leave little notes for me as to when they wanted to take time off. It was a communication nightmare. Now, with 7shifts, everybody knows when they work and they can submit time off from their phones. It's given me peace of mind."
"It took no time for my team to get used to 7shifts. My managers like being able to print off the daily roster. I also love how I can enter projected sales and see in real-time if my labor costs are on budget."
"Our business has taken advantage of the great ways to communicate more efficiently and effectively with employees through email and text right from 7shifts. Our employees also like the notifications and ability to check their work schedule online anytime without calling the store."
"Our old way of scheduling was unmanageable after we opened a second location. 7shifts has helped us to schedule staff easily across our stores, and it's also a great tool for communication to keep everyone on the same page. It literally saves me hours."
"7shifts is very intuitive, and that's important since we rely on it every day. My staff loves being able to use the mobile app to send in their time-off requests and I never have to worry that someone doesn't know when they work."
"I was amazed at how quickly everyone took to 7shifts. When you’re bringing in a new tool the worry is ‘are people going to actually use it?’ When I brought it out and told everyone about it, it took 48 hours for staff to embrace. People were in love with it. I was shocked. It was great."
"One of the features that I absolutely love about 7shifts is the Wall that they’re able to write notes on. It’s such a neat thing because my employees treat it as a social media website. They write really cool notes to each other. In addition to work-related messages, for trading shifts and whatnot, they will send each other notes of encouragement and it’s really cool to see that."
"Before 7shifts it felt like there was a lot of anxiety about what the schedule would look like for employees and what they would need to do to make it work for them. Scheduling was time consuming and stressful on both the employer and employees."
"The accessibility is what really brought me in. It’s very, very, very cost effective for our small business – that’s what really did it for me. Factoring that and it’s user friendliness is how I made my decision. This is so much easier than trying to track people down."
"We need to focus on our core business, which is producing food. All other things need to be addressed efficiently so [we] don’t have to worry about them all day. Before we used 7shifts, we definitely had a lot more headaches managing the schedule. Now, it’s sent and done and we are ready to do other things – think of new ideas, ready to think ‘expansions’. We utilize the technology to address these needs which will free our hands up for business goals."
“There was just so much paper! It was very inefficient.”
