Doggone happy with Jolt!
Our business initially signed on with Jolt, looking for a better way to manage employee accountability and productivity. That was eight years ago now, and we couldn't imagine a day in the life of our business without using Jolt. Running a busy dog daycare, boarding, and grooming facility has many moving parts, various shifts, and a whole host of services to track 365 days per year. We use Jolt for everything from employee onboarding to new dog evaluation visits, facility security audits, and employee reviews. Another feature we love is the information library our staff always has at their fingertips. We've loaded our entire facility's standard operating procedures into this database, including instructional photos and hands-on video instruction. Our team is never more than a click away from essential data to keep our facility running smoothly. We've integrated Jolt into the fabric of our business operations, and it has never let us down. Additionally, in recent years, we've noticed the addition of more support services and have a lovely Customer Service Success manager who is available if we have any issues. Hands down, we recommend Jolt for any business of any size.

We use Jolt in our restaurant for scheduling, time off requests and completing checklists. Scheduling really has been helpful to our staff as they can see all changes in real time on their phones. Time off requests are also very quick and can be done in seconds!

We decided to purchase Jolt to ensure processes were being executed. Some of the internal work flow problems were team members not completing tasks in a timely manner or at all and unsure of what to do during non-peak hours. We also were using an internal POS scheduling tool which was very cumbersome. Since purchasing the checklist and scheduling features in Jolt our operations have become smoother and more tasks are being completed in the restaurant. I have personally saved hours of time on creating schedules.

We got introduced to Jolt, not too long ago. I was trained how to create lists, view reports, etc. I have created a couple of lists to help with our company. One is High Risk Checklist which helps the restaurants reassure that they are ready food FS ! I have recently created the FAST Assessment checklist to help improve Speed of Service at those locations that are extreme outliers. While creating these checklist, I have contacted Sadie and she is quick to jump on call and support in any way! I like the fact that I know if I make a mistake, we can reach out and Sadie will help!

I've been relying on Jolt for several years now, and it's been an invaluable tool for our growing restaurant business. Recently, we expanded to a second location, and Jolt made the transition remarkably smooth. The checklist feature has been a game-changer, empowering our team members to take charge of their responsibilities without feeling micromanaged. It's given them a real sense of ownership in their work, which has translated into more efficient operations and better service. Jolt has truly been a key asset for our success.

Great product saves $$$
Jolt allows management to oversee checklists and critical temp logs without being onsite. Increased checklist completion rates. The sensors allow us to monitor equipment temps in real time and proactively address issues before they arise.

Well worth the investment
I currently use Jolt in my 2 store locations. It is simple to implement and user friendly. The scheduling aspect of the program is clear and easy to follow, we also use the checklists, labeling, and sensor (temp) tools. It makes for a clean and efficient way to keep track of product, employee duties and important items in our workplace.

Jolt is the first time that I am able to hold my staff accountable in real-time and ensure that tasks are completed in the proper manner.
It has helped with inventory control as well as we are able to accurately forecast what flavors we’ll need to make, and when based on lists that the staff fills in.
Jolt has been such a time saver for me as a small business owner because many of the daily activities I found myself doing, I was able to automate.
I wish I had found this sooner, I can’t recommend this product enough.

The fast food business is basically a production facility. Raw product in the back, finished out of the front. My business utilizes Jolt to ensure we are consistent in that production every day. Without Jolt, the myriad tasks that must get done to run a world class operation simply would not happen. I am never held hostage by Team Members who have all the tribal knowledge and when they inevitably leave, they take all the best practices with them. Jolt allows me to create a system where my amazing Team Members simply plug into the roles that exist when they were hired. As the business grows, we adjust the checklists to grow with the business.
Jolt is also designed to allow us to manage the daily ops by sending us alerts when checklists aren't complete on time or at all. My completion rate on dozens of daily checklists is in the high 90's% because the leadership can follow up with Team Members who don't complete checklists or don't complete a task.

We use live time cooler monitoring, Time Scheduling and Task Management.
Last night before closing I got a warning that the UT Wing Cooler was running warm, I was able to have the guys move 10 cases of chicken wings out of this cooler before they left. In the morning the wing cooler is not operational and we were able to save all that product. Thank you Jolt!

We currently use Jolt for all of our Training Checklists for each level of leadership. From New Hires to our Directors, they have the power to access their training as well as the materials they need. This allows the power to be in the Team Members hand, as well as ensure all of our trainers can see the most up-to-date versions of training. We have right around 200 employees between two restaurants, and we all use this system.
We also use Jolt for all cleaning and maintenance lists. We used to print 100 page books every month for our leaders with all of their daily tasks for them to check off, and a manager would have to be in the store to see if it was done. Now, not only can a leader see it in real-time, they can upload pictures, leave comments, and even get a message when something is completed. It has put the power in the managers hands, and streamlines follow-up.

Training Manager Use of Jolt
We use Jolt as our online food safety system. We have this in several locations where we serve guests a variety of food options. This makes tracking required temperatures easier and more efficient. It is used daily in these operations during our busy Summer season. We utilize the Lists, Labels, and Communication sections of Jolt and do not use the scheduling part because we have our own system.

Excellent Product
We use it across our whole organization. It helps with inventory, coaching, reviews, and other tasks. We use Jolt several times a day, and it is a great tool for us to track and communicate throughout the company. Jolt has increased productivity by allowing us to transmit information quickly and remotely. It is easy to create and review information. I love the customization that it offers. In my opinion, Jolt would be useful to small and larger businesses.

We primarily use Jolt for its labeling and temperature monitoring solutions. Labeling is straightforward and easy-to-customize; their new LoRA temperature sensors combine value and connection reliability that's *much* better than anything we've experienced in 10 years. Partnership from their corporate account management is another value-add we don't often experience in our industry. Jolt continues to grow their solution offering and we are excited to expand our use of their hardware & software for years to come.

Jolt at our locations is used for scheduling and tasking. We publish our schedules in advance and ask that our team members request days off in advance; with the jolt app, they can do this without having to access a computer. Trading shifts among other team members is another function that can be used through the app.
The app is used on our Kindles as well. We have at least one Kindle at each of our locations, and the benefits we have seen include team members staying on task with less supervision. We do hope for more optimization with the Kindle tablets as they are cheaper than iPads and handle wear and tear better.

Jolt has been an amazing tool for our restaurant. We are discovering more and more the flexibility it offers us between labeling, lists, keeping temperatures, reports, etc. Our representative Ashley has been incredibly helpful every step of the way. We are currently using it to print all of our day dots for our food, record all of our temperature logs, record our waste logs at the end of the night, and also for opening, mid-shift, and closing lists. My favorite part about Jolt is the variety of options it gives for building your lists. You can create list items with a checkmark, a yes or no button, taking a picture, and much more. I am excited to continue using Jolt and implement more and more of its features within our restaurant.

<b>Jolt has made the whole food safety process better. The time savings for completing food safety is quicker and we only need one person to complete the temperature lists. In addition, Health Department visits are so much easier and quicker. Everything you need is right on the tablet. I do not have to find the book and dig through it to find a specific day to show completion of food safety. This visit ran much smoother because of Jolt.</b>

Jolt is being used for all digital food safety lists and shift management lists on a daily basis. It allows us to keep food safety top of mind and a priority for every customer, every day. It is being used by our entire organization, which includes a total of eight quick-service restaurants and a management team of around 50. We're so happy to have switched over from manual food safety books to the new digital food safety lists provided by Jolt because it addresses issues with food safety checklists not being done or items being skipped. It reduces complaints due to product/food quality and ensures that we are committed to keeping our customers safe by serving safe food.
