    7Shifts is ideal for a broad number of restaurant clients, whether it is a single unit, independent location or multi-unit, multi-jurisdiction group like ours. Pricing is very reasonable, and as mentioned earlier, a lightweight and intuitive platform makes it easy to implement and maintain, and scalable for growth

    We use it for mostly community surveys and I absolutely prefer it over any other survey program out there. It is easy to create, easy to understand and easy to navigate. I love the QR code option it creates for you to share your form/ survey with others. It really is the best out there!

    Sling offers enough customization I can see it working in most any scheduling scenarios. The ability to build job types into each employee gives you the control to match employee skills with the need for any particular position. Time of day templates makes it easy to select various shift times.

    Pros
    7shifts
    • Staff can easily access fellow team members' contact info (phone & email).
    • Staff can easily enter availability or time off.
    • Managers have a log book to share issues or updates from the days’ shift so quick action can be completed easily if needed.
    • Being able to communicate with managers only, with a specific department, or with the entire staff easily is very helpful.

    Cons
    7shifts
    • When creating schedules I wish there was a way to remember the last schedule you were on instead of ordering them in alphabetical order.
    • When working on a schedule, again when you revisit it, it alphabetizes the employees instead of keeping them in the order you add them. This is pertinent for our business because we're reservation-based and work off of a rotating schedule where the lowest ones are called off if there are not enough reservations.

    • The price is too high for casual users like myself
    • The automation took some time to figure out (that's understandable)
    • Making the forms look uniform took a lot of time to setup
    • Some parts like the approval emails, notification emails can be confusing

    I would say everyone at our store really appreciates the fact that we have 7shifts. We would be lost with out it. It would be hard to find anyone that does not support the software.

    I honestly have not used the support feature with Jotform. From what I can see when I look information up, everything I want to do something that I can't figure out myself it seems to not be a possible solution or edit that Jotform is currently capable of.

    For me, 7Shifts has the same amount of functionality, but for a much better price. The app functionality of 7shifts was easier to navigate and allowed me to do more than HotSchedules. I've recommended it to several other local businesses who have implemented it as well and had great luck.

    Typeform is better hands down [in my opinion]. It's not even a comparison as [I feel] JotForm doesn't work properly and [from my experience I think] their support is very problematic. I would suggest using Typeform or using GravityForms as an alternative to JotForm. Whatever you do, [I feel you shouldn't] depend on JotForm for something that is important to your business or research project.

    Return on Investment
    7shifts
    • Positive: Less call outs/ and missed communication due to internal conversations that were never communicated. For example, employees tell manager A they are not coming but Manager A does not tell manage B and C.
    • Positive: Manager log book has helped multiple departments stay in touch and on the pulse of the floor operation. Departments like HR, events, reservations, AP/ AR, etc. are not empowered to be more proactive
    • Labor and sales are tracked and can be forecasted which has helps us schedule SMARTER

    • It saved me time. Within minutes I was able to create and share forms to collect demographic data.
    • While struggling to use another software, I thought of Jotform and it was able to assist me with collating the data I had to confirm results previously obtained.
    • I could not easily identify what new information was provided in a resubmission by a respondent.
