This app has worked really well for our restaurant and our employees. I like how helpful the time off request feature is when I am creating new schedules.

Downloaded initially just for fun, but I do not regret it! This app has quickly become a staple for my staff and me. Making it easy to create schedules for me and easy for my team to submit their schedule requests. This has lifted a weight off my shoulders, and I strongly recommend giving it a try.
