### "The staff are always on hand to help with any issues. "

October 30, 2017

5.0

Improves communication across the work place.

Pros

That the staff have apps that can let them know what days and hours they are down to work and any changes are sent to them instantly and has improved the communication within the work place.

Cons

Not having an undo or back button. At times I get interrupted during writing the staff rota and have dropped shifts on the wrong staff or deleted a shift by mistake. this is not a huge issue as I send the guys a message and they will undo this for me within 10 min.

### "Excellent! "

November 28, 2018

5.0

Pros

I love the fact that it is easy to access and everyone can see shifts that need covering, who’s where and also that you can leave notes for the staff on duty at the next shift. Trying to work out best place to record things when there’s a lot of part time shift workers is always a problem and RotaCloud has fixed this! Couldn’t do without it now.

Cons

The only downside is having to scroll through weekly to get to the rota a few weeks/months in advance. This is time consuming and hopefully they will develop a drop down calendar soon..? Thank you in advance!

Hi Rachel, thanks for a wonderful review! You'll be pleased to hear that there already is a drop-down calendar that you can use to jump to dates in the past or future. Just click the dates between the arrows to get it to appear :). James

### "You Couldn't Possibly Want for More"

September 22, 2018

5.0

Staff are informed instantaneously which I love. Leave applications, extra shifts, all the information including shift costs. Has saved me a lot of time and effort.

Pros

Believe me, if I love this product, then it's got to be good. Besides being fastidious about what I want out of a rota system, I'm one of those old school, long-in-the-tooth people who still believes manual systems are best! Yes, I know!!! However, the RotaCloud designers have covered all the bases. I can't imagine what else you would want. Easy to use, quick, everything you need at the click of a button, and more.

Cons

I've not found anything. Maybe there could be less line-spacing when I print out a hard copy for the noticeboard, but now I'm being really picky.

### "Fantastic platform"

January 7, 2020

5.0

Its been just great, the rota cloud staff are always on hand to help if I need to know anything.

Pros

I love this programme because I can plan ahead our rotas for our cleaners and they get it on their phones. They know when they are in and the gps feature really helps.

Cons

nothing really - sometimes the cleaners cant clock in but I feel this is more of an issue with the signal on their phones.

Reason for choosing RotaCloud

ease of use and paperless.

### "Amazing software"

May 1, 2020

5.0

Pros

This software is everything and more. Easy to use, understand, navigate and most of all so practical. Value for money - one stop everything!

Cons

Would prefer an email invoice every month rather logging on to download and save. Apart from that everything is great.

### "Simple enough to use for the regular and basic tasks."

December 9, 2017

4.0

Saves time. Employees are notified via the app. Communication is much easier.

Pros

Ease of use for making changes to the rota. Prompt and helpful attitude to customer support via the online chat.

Cons

Perhaps the 'Availability' feature. Could be more intuitive. Mobile version of software is slow on many occasions.

### "Rotas have never been so easy"

February 28, 2020

5.0

We moved from rotas on a spreadsheet and holiday on a group calander. Now everything is in one place with a simple dashboard to view the days rota.

Pros

Easy to use, does the hard work for you, reporting gives an easy view of who is on shift, shift swaps and sickness. Copying weekly shifts is a simple copy and paste

Cons

Any suggestions I have had to improve the software for our use has been done

### "Attendance Module"

April 4, 2019

5.0

Amazing for organising staff rota, payroll and monitoring attendance and lateness.

Pros

We have been using Rotacloud for a few years and i have reviewd the application previously , but now we have recently added on the attendance module. This has been instrumental in monitoring lateness and attendance throughout the office. You can even set it to remind employees when their next shift is and notify them if they are going to be late. The reporting system is brilliant and having just had our management meeting it was great to log on and present the issues we have and the staff that need to be addressed. Would highly recommend this.

Cons

If an employee works an extra shift it still show that there is a discrepancy when when you authorise the shift.

Great, easy to set up and easy to use and easy for the coaches to use to

### "Cheap and does exactly what I need"

May 17, 2019

5.0

Pros

I needed a piece of software that simply allowed me to integrate with calendars and allow my employees to select available shifts in advance to prevent me forcing people to work.

Cons

I have used this for two years now and so far I cannot fault it as it does exactly what I need it to do.

January 29, 2020

5.0

We have used RotaCloud for over 4 years now and find it caters to all our needs. It is very easy to use, never glitches and customer support is very quick and reliable. Would highly recommend.

Pros

Easy to use, reliable & good customer support.

Cons

Nothing really, except I never used to have to close down and log back on each day to use certain functions, but now I do.

### "Awesome Rota Management Tools"

March 19, 2018

5.0

Reduced rota processing and payroll calculations from hours to minutes, can make changes on the fly on the app and it keeps my team informed and manages their leave and shift requests

Pros

Overall the tool provides everything I need to manage my teams working week. Notifications for shift swaps, leave requests are great. The dashboard view is especially useful when reviewing shifts to ensure cover across the whole day and one of the real pluses of this software

Cons

Wish it was possible to move shifts in the dashboard view and that notifications told you which shifts had changed (not just that shifts have changed).

### "RotaCloud really helped us keep track of our multiple stores rotas and holiday allowances"

October 24, 2017

5.0

Pros

Really easy to use, loads of features (we don't use all of them but good to know they are there), great visibility of the whole company's rotas and holiday position. Brilliant and quick to obtain reports. The team at RotaCloud are really responsive so whenever I have had question or issues that have helped us out really quickly. We have made suggestions for improvement, they really take that on board and try to implement these if they can.

Cons

Not much - maybe some more control over shift lengths and break lengths that are allowed. Perhaps more support for holiday allowance on part time staff with varying hours.

### "Easy to use, all the staff can log in to see the rota."

January 30, 2018

5.0

Easy to use

Pros

It is easy to use, to allocate rotas to 3 different places and 20 staff. Each staff members details, how much leave they have, which branch they work in, what time slots they have to work, how much holiday they have left. It clearly shows who is working or is on a day off or on holiday. My staff like it.

Cons

The staff can ask to change shifts, i would like to be able to message the staff and ask them if they can change shifts.

### "Excellent Rota Management Tool"

November 30, 2018

5.0

RotaCloud has brought great value to our business and has allowed our 13 outlets to better communicate and organize our Rotas,making cooperation and helping each other with staffing a breeze. It has also improved attendance and lateness as staff are aware of their records and strive for perfect records, being upset if they clock in a few minutes late. It has created somewhat of a competition among staff as to who will consistently clock in and out correctly and on time.

Pros

Easy Rota creation and management Excellent functions for staff management and attendance monitoring Good value as we can manage all 13 of out outlets under one account and subscription. Active development and communication with customers

Cons

Still lacks a few features like TOIL tracking and labour vs projected sales reports. Doesn't yet integrate with iTrent natively.

November 14, 2017

5.0

time saving, efficient, improved communication, improved record keeping

Pros

It is a great easy to use platform that has made rota building and communicating extremely easy. our staff love it and it has removed a lot of paper from the office!

Cons

The app can be a little slow and clunky on phones. Also on my extremely old pc it does seem to slow down my web browsing speed if it is open in the background.

### "Rota cloud is a great programme."

August 24, 2017

5.0

It is much quicker and easier to get my rota organised. It's better that staff can check their shifts daily and any changes notify them on their phones. I like the financial summary it produces as well.

Pros

I like how easy it is to make a rota and see the financial side of things quickly and easily. I like the quick and very responsive feedback when I have been unsure of anything on the soft ware.

Cons

I don't like that the weekly hours doesn't include any annual leave staff have taken, as I then have to add that manually on another spread sheet, where all other rota issues are managed by the Rota Cloud soft ware.

### "Rota Cloud is great for our business"

July 25, 2017

5.0

Quick rota planning, holiday approval, report creation and many more Having everything in one place on one system Easy to see staff details

Pros

Ability to suggest changes to the system Staff do not need to fill in a timesheet - all done on the system Changes can be easily made and staff notified quickly The system allows annual leave, rota planning, timesheet approval and to run specific reports, for roles, costs, sickness, etc

Cons

If you have a large staff team adding all shifts on can be difficult as you cannot see all staff in the view and have to scroll up and down When checking staff timesheets the scroll goes back to the top each time - I have been informed however that rota cloud are improving this at present
