Skedulo works well to visualize capacity. It also works well to assist with the planning of routes and distribution of work. It works well for the field resources and provides the key information about their jobs and enables alerts to be provided to customers. The automated Optimization & Scheduling engine is still maturing. Skedulo also does a good job satisfying the customer's unique requirements and has a solid in-house development team looking to continually improve the platform.

Sling has been our best option for communication and scheduling. We looked into OnShift and other scheduling systems that aren't free. Sling has been our best option. Our schedule is a beast and Sling has made my job much easier and for our on-call staff as well. You can change the color of positions (which we love) and we love to use green for bonus money shifts!

  • Bring back the forever repeating shifts, they currently only repeat for 1 year so I have to go through every shift once a year & reset them.
  • Our staff liked when they had birthday notifications for staff.
  • Wish there was a way for admins to be managers of managers. What I mean by that is when management requests time off I do not get a notification so they have to let me know separately.

We actually use Skedulo as our only dispatching appointment program. Salesforce is not like Skedulo, but we use them together daily to ensure on-time specimen draws, delivery, and payout for all visits completed. Skedulo is very easy to interface with other programs.
