There's not anything that I dislike about it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about Shyft?

My favorite part about using Shyft is being able to view my work schedule, post shifts I want to swap or give up, as well as the message section that allows me to communicate with other associates and managers. I think that having the opportunity to pick up/trade shifts is simplified by using this application. Another upside of using the Shyft application is that it allows you to stay up to date with any new news going on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Shyft?

My least favorite part about Shyft is having to log into the application nearly every time I open it on my phone. It becomes frustrating to have to do it so often. Something else that I dislike about Shyft is that the schedule does not update if it changes after the initial release of the schedule, and clearing the notification is difficult to do unless intentionally hitting "clear notifications"/ Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Shyft:

I would recommend that Shyft update the application so that it will update schedules if needed when the company makes any changes. I would also recommend that Shyft should make the notifications easier to clear, rather than manually doing it. I think having it so that when the app is opened and you check the tab the notifications are under, they should clear automatically Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

By using Shyft the largest benefit for me is that I am able to post/trade shifts I am scheduled that I can't make it to, or prefer to trade. Having this ability not only helps me but the management staff as well. I also love being able to have an all-employee group chat within the application, as well as being able to communicate with other associates even if I don't have their phone number.

What do you like best about Shyft?

The ability to trade, view, post shifts is made easy and allows less time to be spent trying to modify a schedule. Important messages are also easier to get out to every staff member. I am also able to contact staff on a less personal communicative which allows the conversation to stay business related. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Shyft?

I do not like that every time I use the app I must login. The app does not always load on real time making it hard to see what has been posted recently and what has been approved by a manager and what has been denied. I also don’t care for the inability to look through past shifts with ease. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Shyft:

Great for basic use in shift switching, covering, or making announcements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We are no longer needing to spend time contacting employees to find someone to cover available shifts. It’s is also making communicating with all employees at once easier. We don’t always see every staff member in the time frame that they may need to receive the message that we are sending so it allows them to stay informed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
