"Our supervisors use the manager logbook and it has been extremely helpful in keeping everyone up to speed on daily operations, issues and ideas. We act much quicker when addressing problems with staff and maintenance, and reduce the distortion of facts when compared to transferring information along a chain of conversations. This is a valuable feature not to be overlooked."
"We went through multiple different scheduling platforms before finding 7shifts. Once we started using 7shifts life became much more simple. They are always there for support, improving their system and listening to what the restaurant needs! I could not be happier."
"7shifts is a reputed scheduling software solution for restaurants, bars and similar hospitality venues, designed to improve employee attendance, evenly and effectively distribute workload among available workers, and significantly reduce labor costs. Managers love 7shifts as it takes care of their scheduling processes with ease, giving them more time to focus on quality customer service."
"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.”
