What do you like best about Jolt?

My favorite thing about Jolt thus far is how easy it is to use and the incredible customer service department. My rep is always ready to help us out with any software issue! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Jolt?

It could be more customizable for specific tasks, but otherwise, there aren't many improvements that are honestly needed. It's a program so sometimes things happen, yet the service department is always ready to assist. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Jolt solving and how is that benefiting you?

I currently am having delay issues in lists, and my rep helped me figure out what is slowing the program. Short story even shorter, Jolt will resolve all problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Jolt?

uptime. The system has been reliably and we haven't experienced down time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Jolt?

Customer service used to be excellent, now it's been 3 weeks to reach an account manager and still no one calls back despite three emails and two phone calls messages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Jolt solving and how is that benefiting you?

Staff are not exactly in love with the format but it helps us track inspections, until we find another provider. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Jolt?

This company will not call you back. they have no customer service Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Jolt?

This company will not call you back. They have no customer service. They hook you in with a free trial and then make it impossible to cancel. Any company that does not have a way to cancel online and then does not call you back to cancel is not ethical. Stay away! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Jolt solving and how is that benefiting you?

No benefits at all! We wanted to cancel, and they would not return calls or emails. we had to dispute the charges Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Jolt was not helpful to my business. Would not use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Jolt?

Only tech support is via email or phone. No onsite visits in NZ. Only suitable for the USA Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Jolt:

Only use if you live in the US Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing there are better systems doing the same thing here in NZ. Look at loaded. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Jolt?

Jolt lists keep everyone in check and and allow our team to be held accountable and to a higher standard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Jolt?

Getting used to the new app is probably the thing we most dislike. Our team isn't a fan of change when it comes to that, but I know they'll get used to it. We can automatically tell there is a bit of a lag when you click on the new app and try to print something. But other than that, we love Jolt. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Jolt solving and how is that benefiting you?

For problem solving: we figure out who completed a list item when it might not be clean to our expectations. It's a learning opportunity for most.

For the benefits we've realized, we feel our team is on a more consistent schedule when completing cleaning lists and others items critical to passing our health inspection. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Jolt?

I like the edit features on the website, makes it easy to customize lists.

Reminding managers to do lists has been very helpful as well, the due date function is very useful for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Jolt?

When you are off the app for days, it takes a long time to sync back up.

Recently the slider bar has gone away for showing "swept items", I wish we could get that back. It made it easier for me to follow up on shift for those getting specific things on list done correctly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Jolt:

Get your team on board and show them all the ways it can help. Use a fast device. For us we had to reset our app in the actual app, (as shown on website) every little bit to make sure it was as fast as possible.

ipads work well, samsung tablets are so so. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Jolt solving and how is that benefiting you?

reminders. easier to get lists done, and keep track of completion. Realized that using technology makes the follow up and tracking process much easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Incentivized Review
What do you like best about Jolt?

Jolt holds us accountable for the things that we do on a regular basis. We have the ability to be reminded to complete lists, notified of completions and incomplete lists, create new lists, take photos, videos and make notes and ALL of this is hosted on Jolts servers that you can access at any time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Jolt?

Jolt is making updates to their platform and decided to archive some lists to the point were they weren't accessible from the front end that we have access to. Our main reason for using Jolt is to keep digital copies of lists that can be referenced at any time. To have the company make the decision on our behalf to archive lists makes zero sense. They were restored after several complaints on our side but that has really soured the experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Jolt solving and how is that benefiting you?

We kept paper copies of lists and scanned them to be uploaded to folders. No more need to do this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The printer has a habit of disconnecting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Jolt:

Be clear about what tasks you want Jolt to accomplish and then talk to the customer service team about exactly what they can do to fulfil those needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Jolt solving and how is that benefiting you?

Jolt helps us with our food safety and cleanliness. It keeps our team more consistent about making sure that everything is at our standards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
