What do you like best about Jolt?

Yes, the checklist and label printing are great, but my favorite function is how we have used the lists to go almost completely paperless in our communications and requests. We use to have paper notes all over the place and they would get lost and never addressed. Now, if anyone needs something of a leader, there is a list for that. You need a uniform, fill out the list and it is emailed to the person in charge of uniforms. A peice of equipment needs to be serviced. There’s a list for that. The team knows that they can go onto jolt and get things addressed quickly.

Our communication has been streamlined to go to the right person immediately. No more lost paper. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Jolt?

The initial setup can be a bit tedious and daunting. Could be a little more user friendly on the front end. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Checklists are readily available. We can track anything we want. Communication is also much better because of Jolt. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Jolt?

This is extremely easy to use and makes scheduling so much easier, especially for several employees. I like that you can have multiple admins and users.

Our company also apprieciates that there is an app! We have many students that join us, and when you tell them that they can view their schedules on their phone, they get excited. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Jolt?

Sometimes emails do not get sent out, even after the schedule has been posted.

There should be a way for employees to set up their own username and password and just have to enter an employer code, it would make the invitation email less troublesome, as it has in the past. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Jolt?

We began using Jolt for in process labeling at our food manufacturing facility. We purchased this system because it was not a big cost to purchase and use. We also were aware of the other possibilities for this system here since it does so much more than labels. Although we still are not fully utilizing this system, we are now using it for Finished product labels, message center for weather issues, it has become our time clock for all employees to use to punch in and out, it can help track employee history, it has pictures of all who punch in, so we use it for new employees to identify people, Those are just a few items we are using, but want to use for so much more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Jolt?

Cannot think of anything I dislike about this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Jolt:

I would recommend this system to anyone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We can make labels for everything very easily. We didn't have that option before Jolt. We also use as a time clock for employees. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Jolt?

The app records who has completed which task and requires a log-in to verify that employee. It also can scan barcodes, QR codes, and photo-verify depending on what you would like done. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Jolt?

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

Accountability is a large problem in our company, this app allows us to see what has or has not been done in a shift and address it with specific people instead of the entire staff because of not knowing who was responsible for that task. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Jolt?

Jolt has streamlined our employee operations from the daily timeclock function, payroll, employee messaging, employee checklist, file and video libraries and scheduler - everything to run our multi-dimensional business is in one location. The reports are also fantastic and have proven easy to run and useful with my directors above me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Jolt?

Entering employee scheduling information is a bit challenging. Employee shift preferences, vacation time, etc... is a bit clunky compared to other scheduling heavy software such as When to Work, When We Work, etc... I hope they will improve this feature since I have a large number of employees with irregular shift work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Jolt:

Jolt is an application worth exploring for your business. We have found countless opportunities to utilize Jolt where in the past we relied on other software applications - this has put everything in one place and has saved us money as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We utilize Jolt for scheduling, payroll, timeclock and employee education. Having everything in one place has been helpful in minimizing extra time importing and converting clock-ins, payroll hours, etc. One of the most helpful features is the hourly employee cost breakdown. I like knowing exactly how much I'm paying out vs. bringing in. The library feature has been very helpful in creating a database for employees. We also utilize their lists feature.
