Schedule it

Avantages

Nice tool to schedule and delegate tasks to staff in an intelligent and punctual way. All in one application. Traceability and history are well implemented, as is the ability to customize your workflow with ad hoc categories.

Inconvénients

I can't cite anything wrong with such software. It has never given me any problems

Avantages

Functionally meets our needs (long range manufacturing resource & production campaign planning) without complex scheduling algorithms and ERP interface design needs. Aesthetically and visually stunning compared to every other application I've seen. Simple mechanics (event tagging is an incredibly simple concept, but incredibly effective. Easy application configuration. Most user friendly interface I've seen of any planning and scheduling application. Finally, the pricing is phenomenal. To find an application that meets and exceeds our expectations and is also significantly cheaper than competitor products is unfathomable!

Inconvénients

Initially there were limits to how much of the timeline I could see on screen (1 year) since this was probably not originally designed to view 2 to 3 years on screen at a time. Having said that, the support team are phenomenal and within 1 month of use they've already updated the application to give me greater visibility on the timeline!
The only other con so far is the dashboard - it doesn't really show me what I want to see based on data that I know is in the application. Having said that, I'm confident that we'll address this within the next couple of months.

Avantages

I really like the phaticity that the software offers to the company. The scheduling of spaces, people and projects helps the company to increase the work management and also the physical space of it.

Inconvénients

I think the software could add more functions to make ever more optimize.

Avantages

I like the simplicity of it more than anything, it is very easy to use

Inconvénients

To get the detailed reports out we found there are better more through softwares out there

Avantages

Very easy to use and navigate. Great customer support.

Inconvénients

Would like to customize more to just what my business needs

Avantages

I like seeing the 200+ calendars in timeline view. There are very few competitors that do it with the level of detail that we needed. They are very quick to respond to queries. all interaction is within the app so no lost emails, no need to verify who you are since its in the app and quick to identify what the issue is. If the timezones are in line, they fix things almost instantly. Like magic

Inconvénients

The reporting can be a little bit advanced for the untrained user. Once you get your head around how it works, with some creative planning it can produce some great results. we use it for Crew Availability Lists. Job Sheet creation for existing resources and soon we will attempt to get it create CV information creation to give to crew who would like a list of the projects they have worked on. With that said, We had issues and they looked at the report and fixed the problem. Yet again, like magic.There is a double filter that i have not yet mastered. but with 2 months usage i am abut 85% confident i am getting the output that i need. which is pretty good considoring I dont have a background in this type of software.

Pourquoi passer à Schedule it

Avantages

Our engineers always know what job they should be doing through the use of the Schedule it App on their mobile devices; the integration with Google maps provides them with directions to the job. For our coordinators and office users, the ease of adding jobs with associated notes and the speedy updating of the data is really appreciated.

Inconvénients

There isn't anything that we particularly dislike about this software.

Avantages

There is a history of every change made to an appointment and includes who made the change/s.

Inconvénients

On the mobile version, week numbers do not appear.

I don't like having to double filter everything.

Avantages

easy to implement; flexible and easy visual management/scheduling

Inconvénients

building reports rather complicated to set up

Avantages

Es un aplicativo muy completo, fácil de implementar, puesto que sus herramientas son bastante intuitivas y su interfaz es hermosa visualmente.

Inconvénients

puede llegar a saturarse y ralentizar los dispositivos si no cumplen con los requisitos mínimos.

Avantages

THE CUSTOMER SERVICE IS FANTASTIC!! The software is easy to use once you start to use it. View; the visual ascetics of the product are wonderful when you customize it for your organization. So easy to schedule an event, add or deduct resources from it and the ability to build templates for reoccurring events. [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] the two of you have very fantastic with your support through our software selection phase and the effort that you have put into helping me to understand aspect of the software that evaded me has been fantastic. We are looking forward to many years of business with Scheduleit.

Inconvénients

It takes some time to learn to customize reports....but again we are still learning

Avantages

This web based app is an excellent way for us to keep track of Tutors, Training Rooms and resources. We use a variety of freelance tutors and run our courses in a variety of venues for lots of different clients. This tool allows the tutors to have an ICS calendar on their phones to keep track of their training schedule, which is great news when there are a lot of changes and requests. Schedulit also has great reporting features for us to run our invoices for completed courses, and to ensure that our tutors get paid correctly.

Inconvénients

The only draw back is the relatively recent reduction in the number of ICS calendar files available. This reduces the amount of tutors we can sync with. Schedulit have also reduced the number of reports available, but both these features can be unlocked if paid for.

Avantages

Flexibility to capture the data I need easily and this data is different for each client
I make most use of calendar views and filters for engagement of stakeholders around detailed weekly schedules for training rollout
Drag and drop allows for easy planning as part of stakeholder discussions

Inconvénients

When capturing screen views / images of of calendars, you are unable to limit what you capture to a specifed date range e.g. 1st of month to last day of month, but I work around that with the captured image. I have not found any adverse stakeholde feedback on this but I have to do the work with the captured image to block out the unwanted dates.

Avantages

It is extremely helpful and easy to use but I am massively under utilising it.

Inconvénients

The way Location and Colours pops up every time I have filled in a field asking me if I want to learn about location etc.

Avantages

Easy to navigate and gives a great overview

Inconvénients

The ability to work with it remotely on your phone, not fully aware of all of the tools and methodologies of use. A one to one tutorial bespoke to our needs would be great

Avantages

Very easy to use it, give information when you need it to all employees

Inconvénients

Can't find any Cons this is a very good product

Avantages

Easy of use.

"does exactly what is says on the tin".

Inconvénients

None, the software is very easy to use. We have a number of inexperienced tech users, who use this with ease.

Avantages

scheduling and job information which is critical information for the people doing the site work whom are not office based.

Inconvénients

it is only as good as the information put in by in line managers and schedulers who must keep any changes up to date

Avantages

Interface is easy to use and the speed you can move jobs etc

Inconvénients

I do not have any cons to report. The software does all i need and more.

Avantages

The ability to have an instant email be sent to a resource. Our resource is an instructor. They will not be double booked and they know when they are scheduled for a class immediately.

Inconvénients

The report feature was very confusing. I did not understand the directions. I was able to talk with customer service and they helped me with the reports. Super easy once you understand the way they are generated.

Avantages

Easy to use and sync'd to MS Outlook calendar.

Inconvénients

Past appointments do not sync with Outlook. Need to keep a record.

Avantages

I love how easy it is to reschedule an event by dropping and dragging and this takes all the associated elements of the event with it.
It also lets me know if someone will be double booked on a date selected.
I can store lots of information in the events notes to remind trainers on additional topics to be covered attendees emails contact numbers etc...

Inconvénients

I'm sure I don't make use of all the features but so far there's nothing I do not like about the software.

Avantages

The software gives us a clear visual timeline of all our service engineers and resources. Changing the tasks is very easy with the drag and drop function which saves us a considerable amount of time over the old Excel planner we used to use.

Inconvénients

The licences are NOT floating licences and are locked on a first come first served basis, Fully understand the requirement as a business model but when we have a large team and higher management will not invest in a licence for all users this can be problematic.
