SkedX: This workforce scheduler wins with its level of collaboration

This workforce scheduler does a bit more than just that and with its high collaborative aspect should engage the whole team. From a pure scheduling perspective the app has everything you’ll need to ensure you have the right numbers in the right place at the right time. A weekly view shows exactly who’s down for each shift and as an administrator you can click on individual names to see their available hours per day along with their hourly rate. Any changes or updates to schedules are emailed to all staff involved.

The collaborative nature of Skedx makes life a whole lot easier when it comes to staff swapping shifts. Anyone unable to work at a particular time slot can offer it to another member of staff with the whole transaction recorded and the schedule updated.

As well as needing to know who’s working it’s important to know who’s not and with this app you also get a the ability to manage both vacation requests and other instances of staff absence. With online requests and management approval a feature your records will be kept up to date like never before. You’ll also be able to see at a glance all booked vacations allowing you to plan ahead more effectively.

Staff of course cost money and represent a large overhead for any business. Not only can Skedx help you get them organized it can also show you what they’re costing you in relation to your sales. This, along with other reports covering things such as staff turnover and hours worked, makes the app a bit of an all-rounder with a lot of strings to its bow.

Conclusion

This one wins with its level of collaboration and it should engender a good team spirit whilst at the same time doing a very important job.
