### "Very efficient for scheduling in standard environment"

April 18, 2026

4.0

Pros

What I liked most about When I Work is how much time it saves on scheduling and coordination. In practice, instead of managing shifts through Excel or emails, everything is centralized: schedules, availability, and communication. For example, the ability for employees to swap shifts directly in the app and for managers to validate quickly significantly reduces operational friction and improves efficiency.

Cons

What I liked least about When I Work is that it can feel limited when you need more advanced features or deeper customization. For example, reporting and integrations are not as developed as in more complex systems, which can be a constraint in structured environments. Also, notifications can sometimes become overwhelming or missed depending on usage.

### "Best timeclock and payroll system out there"

October 29, 2025

5.0

Love it! We all grasped it fairly quickly as it is super easy to use. The cost fits right into anyone budget. Our staff can utilize it from anywhere!

Pros

When I work is so easy to use. Doing payroll and agents asking for time off is incredibly easy! Managing our agents and their absences is a breeze! Its user friendly and every can easily access it from their desk top or their phones!

Cons

Nothing! Truly the easiest and fastest time clock system there is! No messy reports and no long wait times for time off approvals

### "Wasnt fit for the job I needed"

December 26, 2025

3.0

Overall my experience with the application was fair, but I would not recommend the application to other customers

Pros

When I works mobile app graphical user interface is user friendly, with easy log-in access and to view how much I was getting paid each period.

Cons

There were some frustrating technical issues when the application tried to capture my location using celular data, neglecting the main purpose of the application to manage my job.

### "Easy to use"

July 26, 2026

4.0

It was a simple and easy to use, one of my favourite apps for scheduling management, timesheets and shift calendars

Pros

It was super easy to use for getting my schedule calendar and was easy to clock in and out for my shifts

Cons

There was a tendency for the app to crash on my device, may have been user error. It could also use a bit of an update in app style wise

### "A very good tool "

July 28, 2025

5.0

It was a very good experience, it is very easy to use and never experienced any inconvenience with this tool.

Pros

We used this tool to organize all the assignments we had to complete at work. It helped us identify which tasks needed to be done or prioritized, and we could easily see any changes or updates to our schedules just by refreshing the page. It was also really useful for checking coworkers’ availability and seeing if they were off or on holiday.

Cons

There’s nothing I dislike since I was an user for the application. It worked perfectly and never had any issue.

They decided to switch because it required too much time to create and organize all the assignments for each agent. Playvox is helping administrators save a lot more time.

### "Best Work App!"

October 29, 2025

5.0

My experience was very pleasant! I utilize When I Work for my job to this day and absolutely love it!

Pros

How organized and easy the interface of the app is to use! There’s many functions that allow me to stay organized for work, especially my shifts!

Cons

Personalization of color choices for the aesthetic of the app itself would be a nice touch! Other than that I really don’t have anything negative to say about When I Work.

### "When I work just didn't work for u."

November 3, 2025

3.0

Pros

The one thing that I did like about it was how easy it was to actually access the software. Once you are in your in that software.

Cons

The one things I liked the least was how jumbled the actual schedule looked once I put all people and shifts in there.

Pros

So easy to use and cost effective. We really appreciated the great customer support to get set up and ongoing tech help in getting started.

Cons

We are yet to find any issues. It did take us a little bit to set up maybe streamlining this a bit more would be great.

### "Best tool for employee mangement"

April 3, 2025

5.0

very positive, it saves me hours on payroll, scheduling, and time attendance.

Pros

Creating a schedule for 20+ people can be done in minutes, easily customizable. the best option to move up from Excel which we were using beforehand.

Cons

the post-shift adjustments can be more manageable. for large groups of employees difficult to compare what was scheduled vs what was worked at a glance. reports can be labeled a bit better

Alternatives considered

### "Worth exploring!"

April 3, 2025

5.0

Great! I feel I’ve said a bit already but great a smoother process, faster, easier to look at. Staff really enjoys using it, and they find it pretty easy to do so!

Pros

The simplicity of the lay out, I come from google sheets and they are good but this just made things so much simpler, and I feel I have so much less junk from all these files and such on google. Really good layout, look and process.

Cons

The way it prints out, the form is just too small when you have more names added, there should be options for different layouts when it comes to printing.

### "Reliable and User Friendly Scheduling Tool"

January 10, 2026

4.0

Overall, my experience with When I Work was positive. We used it for several years and found it dependable and easy to navigate. I have also used When I Work at another job from the employee side, where it was used for clocking in and tracking time. At my most recent workplace, it was used mainly for schedules. The flexibility, affordability, and ease of use made it a good fit for our needs.

Pros

When I Work was very user friendly and reliable. We mainly used it for scheduling and the chat feature. The chat option was convenient because staff could message with questions about their schedules or notify management if they needed to call off. The pricing was reasonable, which is why we continued using it for about four years. It consistently did what it was supposed to do without any issues.

Cons

We did not fully utilize all of the features available. At this job, we primarily used it for scheduling and communication, so other tools were not used. This was more about our usage than a limitation of the platform itself.

### "Simple, Clear, and Convenient Scheduling"

March 26, 2026

4.0

Overall, my experience with When I Work has been very positive. The platform is easy to use and provides clear, helpful information, including the exact location of my shifts. I appreciate being able to view my schedule well in advance, which helps with planning, and the time-off request process is simple and convenient.

Pros

What I like most about When I Work is the accuracy and clarity of its time tracking. Being able to easily review my clock-in and clock-out times helps me stay organized and aware of my hours throughout the pay period.

Cons

What I like least about When I Work is that it does not display my total weekly hours in real time during an active shift. I can only see my accumulated hours after I’ve fully clocked out, which makes it difficult to monitor my time throughout the week and avoid going into overtime.

### "When I Work review from an employer"

June 25, 2026

5.0

Good, helpful, and the employees seem to appreciate it. We use it to run our company, and it has allowed us to add more employees up to a point without too much additional cost.

Pros

Easy to log in and use for tracking hours, and to to track hours of employees. I haven't heard any complaints from employees, so that is good right there.

Cons

For some reason finding where to start logging hours ie start your shift, was a bit hard to find, and not super intuitive. That could be smoothed over I think.

As the Aquatics Director, WhenIWork has freed up the scheduler's time so they can help with other aquatics tasks. It has been easy to use, visually appealing, and simple to customize or edit!

Pros

We are loving WhenIWork for our 20-person Aquatics team! It is easy to use, the customer support has been so helpful, and our team is loving being able to pick up and drop shifts!

Cons

A bit of a learning curve for the newer users, but they got it after a team training and using the customer support.

### "Atlanta, GA business"

March 21, 2026

4.0

I'm 30 days in using it and it only took about 3 days to get really used to it. Can't complain too muhc

Pros

Ease of use, team communication and time tracking (with the exception of lunch breaks not added in). I also like being able to color code it. Lastly, my employees requesting time off for entire or part time throughout the day is easy.

Cons

It doesn't factor in a lunch break. Most states require 30 minutes for more than 6 hours so just automatically factoring that in regardless if that actually clock out. 8 hours maybe 1 hour. Since that's normal. I don't schedule over 6 hours at this time so I haven't played with the lunch breaks. I'm sure it's simple to add just haven't looked into it.

### "Great Value and Simple Setup (for simple schedule flows)"

February 25, 2026

4.0

Overall, I would highly recommend if you have a simple scheduling workflow - once you get more complex or need a Scheduling + something else, then its not going to be a complete solution.

Pros

Great value for the cost - as a basic solution to the scheduling headaches, the automated communications and Rules Based scheduler are a great value! Time Tracking and appointments works very well too. Very easy to use and setup. Customer support is very quick to respond.

Cons

Its very WYSIWYG. No Auditing capability to see if unauthorized changes were made, and does not work for complex workflows.

August 26, 2025

4.0

When I Work has made it easier for management to schedule employees, and for those employees to communicate their schedule needs, upcoming conflicts, etc.

Pros

When I Work is intuitive enough that everyone on our team, regardless of tech savvy or how they access it, can easily understand what there is to do.

Cons

Different users have reported running into different bugs. For instance, an overall weekly schedule displayed fine for one user, with the exception of one day (one where they were scheduled to work), where their app displayed "no shifts today".

June 25, 2025

4.0

Overall I've been happy with When I Work and the functionality of it. With the plan that we have there are some limitations but it gets the job done.

Pros

I like how quickly you can edit information in the platform and quickly pull timesheet data. I also like the ability to quickly approve or deny time off.

Cons

I wish the reports were able to go farther back in time to review historical data. If I don't save the data somewhere I can't go back and review at a later time.

You're absolutely right, access to historical data can be incredibly valuable, and we understand how frustrating it can be if it's not readily available when you need it. I’d love to pass this along to our product team as feedback. Enhancements to reporting and historical visibility are something we’re always exploring. We’re glad to hear the platform has been meeting your needs overall, and we truly value having you with us. If you ever have questions about plan options or would like help finding workarounds, we’re always here to help. Thanks again for your thoughtful review! Warm regards, Dawn

August 26, 2025

5.0

I would recommend "When I Work" to retail store managers as I enjoyed using it in the same industry.

Pros

The best thing about "When I Work" is the simplicity of the layout. It is very easy to navigate and provides a great visual with the calendar view to help stay organized. I did run into a scheduling issue where my shifts were not appearing but their customer support fixed the problem within minutes.

Cons

Although their customer support was great in assisting this issue, there were multiple times where my work days were not scheduled and I had to go to my managers for my shifts. Other than that issue, it is a great application.

October 29, 2025

4.0

Overall a very positive experience. Staff that helped us launch were very helpful. Most beneficial thing for me was getting my hands on it and trying it out for myself and then communicating with staff on how to use it. Easy to pick up once you spend some time in it.

Pros

Puts all staff in one place, ease of scheduling, very powerful tool. Love that I can interact with staff and provide information both through desktop and app

Cons

It's a little bit of a steep learning curve but I would expect that with any software. One thing I'd like to see was the ability to view two specific schedules together instead of just one at a time or one with all other shifts as well. Also looking for ability to remove some schedules from my view.

i think it's very well streamlined, but still working through all of it's capabilities and how we can best utilize this

Pros

I like the visibility of it all. Being able to color coordinate so many different events has made it easier to find cases.

Cons

Being able to pull reports in the way that we need them and adding enough information into the scheduling request / dashboard.

### "Pros and Cons to When I Work"

October 29, 2025

4.0

Easy, organized, and I will be recommending this to others. My staff easily understands what they gave to do, and the locations for clocking in and out is very accurate

Pros

The customer service was amazing when i requested tutorials to provide my staff. They gave me video tutorials and links, their chat system isnt a Bot its a real person. They get back to you very fast. Very helpful. I also like the timesheet reports, i do my billing off it and my clients love the lack of micro management it offers

Cons

When i enter schedules 3 months out, i have to manually confirm each one to properly post them. Thats the most tedious thing, my "confirm all future shifts" button dosnt work
