    We only had When I Work for employees to enter their hours. The functions of Deputy is way better and all employees think that it is much easier to use. It is now a year since we changed to Deputy, so I don't know if the other app has improved, but at the time Deputy was …

    Deputy
    [My own feeling on the subject is] that large teams will probably enjoy the features much more than a smaller team. [In my opinion] I would not have signed up with Deputy had it not been for the integration with my payroll provider. [From my point of view] the cost is not worth it for a small team. [I've found] it has a lot of features geared towards big teams and those are not things you can "opt-out" of from a cost/tier standpoint [as far as I'm concerned].

    I think Verint Workforce Managementi s well suited for all scenarios. No system is perfect, but understanding the gaps allow you to be effective considering those gaps. The one scenario I can think of is if you don't need to forecast. We have some departments where volume is controlled (example Outbound). Because of the business model we have staffing on a given day or hour isn't important. Only agents are working 40 hours a week.

    When I Work
    I recommend When I Work to those companies that are looking for a way to manage work schedules and want to increase the productivity of all employees. This is an important platform that would bring excellent results to small, medium and large companies. This is a constant monitoring system which allows employees to complete their tasks in the indicated time, When I Work sends automated alerts when an employee is not complying with their tasks and this allows us to know exactly the productivity we are having in each one of the sectors. It is an excellent platform for planning and administration of working hours, it has a very easy-to-use UI that allows schedules to be easily managed. Without a doubt, When I Work would be a perfect implementation for any sector or company, since it has a lot of potential to collect exact data on compliance with working hours.

    • When I Work allowed me to show who was "off" during what time of day. This was essential for morale, as our event included 16-18 hour days, and I wanted to show that everyone had down time each day.

    Cons
    Deputy
    • Integration with various point of sale systems to pull sales data vs. scheduled and/or worked hours.
    • Ability to "re-invite, " change a password or fix an employee-level account if they didn't set things up correctly.
    • An easier way of loading all holidays or facility closure dates for the year. e.g. Google reminds you, Are you open for Thanksgiving this year?

    • Usability from the end user. Our leaders in particular struggle with navigation and getting the information they need
    • Forecasting solutions outside of the basic call center. We do forecasting for back office groups and need to use different models than what is offered today, This requires us to do forecasting outside of Verint Workforce Management.
    • Improved Schedule Change request. Our business has a more flexible model for SCR. While we use the shift bid for other purposes, we need more flexible way to allow reps to submit for SCR

    • You cannot view inactive employees on the app.
    • When pulling up the schedule on the app, it defaults to Tuesday when the screen is done loading.
    • If you pull up an individual's schedule it removes your default settings. For example, I have mine set to just my store, but if I need to see an employee's schedule it resets those defaults. You're always looking at the last schedule you pulled up.

    The basic functionality and overall efficiency it provides is enough to renew.

    Whilst Verint Workforce Management is doing much of the work we were hoping it would do, there are some limitations that cause hesitancy when deciding if it is the tool for the future. No further exploration has taken place to seek alternatives to date. It is good for the Contact element of our business but not for the rest of the business, meaning we have to use two planning tools currently.

    Deputy is user-friendly and easy to understand for users with basic to moderate computer knowledge. The Employee is simple and easy for employees to understand. Employees get push notifications when shifts are scheduled and can clock in and out easily directly from the phone or kiosk, or using the website. The only challenge we’ve had is the ability for management to assign leave to employees who have not yet requested time off.

    As someone who was new to the WFM world just over 2 years ago but very tech savvy I found it very not user friendly. The interface is not intuitive from a rep perspective or an administrator perspective. While Verint Workforce Management could benefit many organizations at our company the user interface is holding back other organizations from wanting to implement it.

    It took me a bit to get all my staff input from our previous scheduling software.

    The team helping us did a great job training our WFM leaders on how to use the tool from forecasting, to schedule updates to maintenance. They allowed us to be involved in implementation but also did a lot of the initial heavy lifting allowing us to stay focussed on the tasks at hand. It was a great experience and one I would hope occurs again should we ever need to implement a new tool again.

    For years we used TimeTrax systems but they were hard to use and required manual downloads of punches, networked setups, and we needed separate setups for each location. When evaluating cloud-based solutions we first tried TSheets, but the higher cost and lack of features made us choose Deputy. Our main complaint about the actual TSheets system was the IPads did not store punches when it first launched so if you lost internet it couldn't store the punches. When we were evaluating the system they were building a police station next door that resulted in intermittent internet outages and the kiosk app basically became a brick until the internet came back on.

    I find that Verint wants to give you a lot of customisation options, but this can potentially lead to a lot of work, but is also offers us something that we didn't have before, the opportunity to give benefits back to our employees with tools like request leave, shift swap, shift bidding, timeflex, etc. This is why we chose Verint Workforce Management.
