HotSchedules, you're the best around!
Overall Satisfaction with HotSchedules
HotSchedules is being used in our individual venues with an Above Store Counsel set up for our corporate execs. We have 5 restaurants and 2 hotels in the division I work in. HotSchedules is mostly used for its scheduling, log book, staff journal, and sales/labor forecasting. Since implementing HotSchedules, it has allowed us to maintain labor budgets, and ultimately, function much more efficiently by way of staffing and increasing managerial communication.
Pros
- Manager Log and Staff Journal -- increases more effective communication as well as keeps corporate folks in the loop and able to identify problem areas much more easily (and proactively).
- Sales and Labor Forecasting - allows us to maintain appropriate labor levels according to budget.
Cons
- I really wish we could upload PDFs in the staff journal. We would likely replace much of our HR practices if we were able to upload reviews and progressive discipline documentation.
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
Quick Resolution Good followup Knowledgeable team Problems get solved Kept well informed No escalation required Immediate help available Support understands my problem Support cares about my success Quick Initial Response | None |
HotSchedules is a one stop shop! You will get everything you need operationally as well as an awesome customer support team!
HotSchedules Support
I just recently implemented HotSchedules into our 4th location. The implementation process was fast and easy! They also offered training afterwards on an individual basis if necessary.
Yes - We had a small issue with the labor sync at one of our venues and HotSchedules Support was able to solve the issue within a few hours. They are incredibly helpful!
