Sling vs. Tracksmart

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!

The system is great for attendance. It is also good for employee's time tracking, however, this feature works well for an organization that pays on a per hourly basis.

Incentivized

• Desktop application for more detailed assignment of shifts.
• Simple App for the workforce deployment that shows shifts and offers communication.
• Ability for users to schedule themselves off work.

Incentivized

• Tracksmart = great
• Personelle = awful
• In my opinion, do not use Personelle

Incentivized

• 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.

Incentivized

• We've had a few instances where the site was down and we weren't able to access our schedules which was tricky, so now we save a back up copy to have on hand in case it goes down.
• There is room for improvement in the notifications.

Tracksmart has been very helpful when we have problems with our scheduling or questions about how to do different tasks. They are responsive and it's always a positive experience when we interact with them.

(it has been 3+ years since I evaluated other programs, I don't recall the names)

We feel like Tracksmart has all of the features that we need for our team to schedule live chat shifts. The ability to trade shifts has been hugely helpful for our team and we love the user-friendly flexibility of the software.

Incentivized

• I spend 50% less time scheduling my employees
• My employees are 100% happier
• We use the free version, so we save 100% of cost!

Incentivized

• Makes employees more accountable
• Easier to request time off rather than taking management's time up - they can view requests at their convenience
• Some employees don't like it and don't utilize it consistently - might be better if it could be some sort of clock-in icon on desktop instead of a website window that needs to be opened.
