WhenToWork is he very cost-effective solution that gives our team the capabilities they need without having to leverage in a much more developed workforce management solution. It allows us to manage role-based permissions that support multiple unique teams, supervisors, QA members, and contact center agents. All users can interact with the system on desktop or mobile.
Our veterinary hospital uses WhenToWork across our entire organization. We are a 24-Hr Veterinary Specialty and Emergency Hospital with three locations and over 200 employees. WhenToWork allows us to manage everyone's schedule across all of our hospitals and services. With WhenToWork being an internet-based program, our employees can check their schedules from home and receive changes and notifications in real time. This allows us to make last-minute changes with ease. In addition, the ability to color-code entries helps everyone to see at a glance when there is a Supervisor on the shift, who is in training, or if someone has made a change in their schedule.
Pros
WhenToWork utilizes templates that make scheduling a breeze.
WhenToWork allows the user to "drag and drop" entries for quick changes.
Cons
It would be a nice feature if WhenToWork could allow the user to build schedules from the Calendar View.
Would love to see WhenToWork integrate with payroll programs, such as ADP, Paycom, Paychex, etc., so employees' schedules and hours worked would be synchronized.
Likelihood to Recommend
I find WhenToWork to be very well suited for a company such as ours with multiple locations and 24-hour operation.
With as many as 50 schedules to keep track of, it does an excellent job. The ability to combine individual schedules into a view as an entire department with varying schedules is also a plus.
Across our organization, W2W allows full time, part-time and per diem employees to easily request or modify daily paramedic shifts. Because our industry relies on medics with multiple projects and responsibilities, it's very common for one's monthly work schedule to change multiple times. The flexibility of this web-based tool is the reason we can make sure that paramedics are available to those patients that need us at the worst time of their lives.
Pros
Web based means always accessible.
Strong messaging tool to inform all employees of schedule changes.
Cons
The mobile app is too restrictive and could use a makeover.
Would like the program to remember defaults (ie. "my positions", etc.)
Likelihood to Recommend
For a business that has last-minute scheduling changes, there's nothing that compares. Either the employee or manager can make/request changes on a situational basis.
