Kendrick N
CEO
5.0

Kendrick: Hi, my name is Kendrick, owner of Kenny's Kitchen, LLC. I give When I Work five out of five. The products I switched from before using When I Work, it was Square. The scheduling is okay for Square, but When I work breaks it down more for me, to help me more understand. So I love it. When I Work is when I work. I chose When I Work because out of the two to three other scheduling apps I looked through, When I Work, it gave me more of what I needed. Time, wage, how much I'm looking at for wages, for the employee, for the week, the complete breakdown that I need is why I chose When I Work over the other applications. Just enter my information for my company, enter the information for my employees, they even double check and do follow up calls just to make sure everything gets correct. So I really, really had an easy time getting started with that. Anyone else using When I Work I feel like applications such as this one are for any business, but they would be more helpful for small businesses like myself. Because depending on your number of employees, that right there is what you need. And again, they have great resources. They even have helpful videos. Any and everything to help you with learning to schedule, manage employees in your company, When I Work has it for you.
