### "Having software issues recently"

November 22, 2021

4.0

It's great for scheduling the cleaners and managing them but I'm not able to do everything with swept. I manage commercial on swept but I'm forced to use another program for residential with I also don't like due to swepts finite number of locations.

Pros

Love the translation to other languages for my cleaners. I like the clock ins, location info, export payroll report

Cons

Theres a lot of bugs recently that myself and the team have experienced. Like the cleaners not being able to sign in or out. Myself and a colleague are admins but sometimes I'm not able to view a couple locations that he's ables to view or the other way round. I wish you could add pics to locations for who has what keys. Or access info into the building for new cleaners.

### "User friendly"

June 8, 2020

4.0

Swept has been affordable and offered time clock solutions as well as inspection reports. Customer service is excellent. Lots of help tools available online as well.

Pros

Super easy for staff to clock in/out. Great features to be able to message staff assigned to locations. Time sheets available to staff are very helpful. Security info attached to locations is an ideal tool. The ability to change the language is nice for messaging.

Cons

Messaging features should be expanded to be able to message individual staff or groups instead of having to use a location. Shifts should be able to be designed without having a start time and end. Notifications of staff not clocking in by a certain time at the end of each day should be a function. More reports options would be ideal. Would be nice to be able to alter job locations in the cleanings reports.

### "I love the app, it truly helps with loss of time and money by tracking employee production."

December 13, 2021

5.0

It's been really good.

Pros

The fact I can see where they are and how long they worked.

Cons

The messaging has really taken a step back with this last update. Our employees text when they arrive on site and when they leave, which makes it easy for a manger to look at their phone and know whether or not someone is at their location. Now you have to log onto the app and check the app for who is working where. It's several steps that our people shouldn't have to do when they are in the middle of a job. It doesn't seem like a tough fix to time stamp EVERY message that is sent... I helps when people can't log in or out for some reason. Backup processes...

### "Swept is a great tool!"

November 23, 2021

4.0

We've appreciate all of it being together: time record, inspections, communication, check-lists, training videos and customer service is helpful and professional.

Pros

Our company loves the inspection features, location specific communication, and the mood reports to help our cleaners communicate with supervisors. These are just a few of the features we like.

Cons

Unfortunately we have a sad face about a specific mileage report not available (yet, I'm hopeful). When I approve hours have to write down the mileage individually from Time Travel feature. Gets a bit timely. And no place to include HR notes tagged to employees.

Reason for choosing Swept

The price, functions and your staff.

### "Swept Review"

September 6, 2022

4.0

It’s been a roller coaster, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t.

Pros

Been able to upload photos and the resolution has gotten better.

Cons

Sometimes when uploading pictures to the work orders they don’t upload and take long to upload. Can’t upload more than 25 pictures per report if more images are added report doesn’t sent out.

We are saving a bunch of time using swept and we are very organized. We are able to grow by using swept.

Pros

It is very easy to use and it is organized.

Cons

It is little slow sometimes and it takes time to load.

### "Swept - SMS"

November 23, 2021

4.0

Pretty good so far. Electronic time tracking is the way to go so long as users are efficient and know how to use it.

Pros

The time tracking is accurate and with geofence enabled we know our employees are on site when they're supposed to be. The scheduling is really organized and let's a fairly big company like ours know who is at which building. It's much easier to manage labor.

Cons

I think payroll management requires a little baby sitting for our people. Some forget to sign out or sign out too late (no OT approved). I wish the app could notify them to sign out based on their schedule so they do it and no adjustments are required. Sometimes the GPS creates problems but it's more rare.

### "Swept rocks"

June 9, 2020

5.0

It’s a very useful tool to our company. Swept as a company is a delight to work with.

Pros

I like the time tracking and messaging functions as well as the instructions section.

Cons

When you type messages you can’t see what you were typing if it is a long message. Makes messaging a little more difficult. I really really wish you guys could add checklists.

### "Worthwhile Investment "

October 13, 2016

4.0

Swept is really the do-it-all app for the the professional cleaning community. My life has been changed for the better by the built-in message boards, inspection capabilities, and all inclusive nature of the product. There are bugs and kinks that always need worked out, but that's true of anything. The great thing about Swept is that the company is always trying to improve. Have an idea that would make your life easier? Tell them. Have an issue and need a fix? Get advice straight from the source. The product is top-notch but the Customer Service is even better.

Pros

The message boards have broken down a lot of walls in the field. Shifting blame between shifts is no longer an issue and accountability has risen. It seems like such a simple thing with text messaging and social meadow being so prevalent, but creating something specific for our cleaners' needs has been an invaluable piece of equipment in the field.

Cons

Payroll is still difficult. Trying to determine if someone is close to overtime or having to manually approve every shift is difficult.

### "Great app "

November 14, 2018

5.0

Pros

I like that I can see when the cleaners have been to the office, for how long, and if problems arise they can take pictures or message me right away. I no longer have to have a pen and paper to check in on when things were done. When something is not working or damaged they take a picture of it and it makes it solving problems quick and easy.

Cons

Sometimes when I check the app check in through my email, it does freeze my computer and make me have to restart everything. It could be my desktop but it keeps stating the image is trying to download. My IT manager was not able to solve it but it did stop for the last month or so so maybe the software was updated. Love the app overall

Swept has allowed us to manage our team with technology. Although I have listed some cons above, I need to mention that they are still growing and adding additional features as they grow. I am an avid supporter of the company and wish them great success as it directly impacts my future growth too.

Pros

\- Ability to track time and employees with geofencing - Schedule automation - Inventory tracking

Cons

\- Does not include a Work Order generation/tracking function - Inspection reports are limited in use

### "Good looks and functionality but is missing key aspects"

June 8, 2020

5.0

easy to use but it lacks checklists and one off jobs.

Pros

Easy to use and it has an appealing user inter phase

Cons

Doesn't provide itemized checklist. Instructions in word are prone to not be read by the cleaners Since checklists have to be checked, cleaners must at least look at them every time to be able to punch out. It would be nice if it can handle one off jobs

Reason for choosing Swept

I didn't

### "Schuman cleaning review"

October 13, 2016

5.0

I think it is a great product but needs some fine tuning before it will work for us. Many items are designed more for a structure where the employee is a 1099 and we are w-2. We need more tracking inbetween stops and easier inspection process by supervisor that is in between worker and manager

Pros

Great, works well in many areas, covers most of the basis, geofenced etc

Cons

we do inspection by supervisor at each account, like a checklist. They need to just click and it be checked, takes too long with 64 bullet points to then go through meets expectations or below, etc and then clicking ok after that. Also, clicking into a building called drive time is too cumbersome.

October 28, 2016

4.0

As just started with the program, there are features that we really need in the business, experience wise is quite interesting, personally, it really works for me in many ways and love it, there are few glitch though when it comes to the Geofence, i know your techs are really working on it to its accuracy. Other than that, everything works as for having been said that needs more polishing. i would recommend it though.

Pros

Geofence and the real time conversations in messages with the parties involve.

Cons

Geofence - not accurate all the time.

Swept is a great app for helping to reduce micromanaging of my team from monitoring supplies, to access codes. I enjoy having the ability to know when and how long team members were onsite and the ability to keep messages for different sites separate. The scheduling feature is awesome too. I chose to use Swept because they are always open to feedback and clearly are always working on improving the app and it's features.
