It also saves a lot of back and forth with the employees compared to manual scheduling. It is also user-friendly. > > **Cons**: The overall look could use a little updating to achieve a modern look, similar to the apps and tools we use today. > > Overall, it is very positive and easy to use. In my role as Executive Assistant, it has saved me a lot of time to focus more on other tasks because the repetitive tasks are already taken care of by When I Work. This tool has saved me from miscommunication and scheduling conflicts many times. ----- ### "Updated When I Work Review" — 5.0/5 > **Terry** | *August 26, 2026* | Publishing | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like the flexibility of the platform. You can flex up or down on a monthly basis depending upon headcount. > > **Cons**: The chat/texting feature. It still does not allow you the option to only communicate with one employee. > > Overall I would still give the platform a solid 5 stars based on the cost and user interface, as well as the admin for the app. ----- ### "okay for small companies" — 3.0/5 > **Jessie** | *March 20, 2026* | Veterinary Software | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: easy clock-in kiosk. easy to use. easy for the staff to learn how to use, and review their schedule. > > **Cons**: the inability to schedule different shift types, such as 4x10 or 5x8's and to be able to keep track overtime that applies to those shift types > > It is a good app for small companies with not a lot of employees, or companies that don't have different shift types ----- ### "When I Work review from an employer" — 5.0/5 > **Dan** | *June 25, 2026* | Food & Beverages | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy to log in and use for tracking hours, and to to track hours of employees. I haven't heard any complaints from employees, so that is good right there. > > **Cons**: For some reason finding where to start logging hours ie start your shift, was a bit hard to find, and not super intuitive. That could be smoothed over I think. > > Good, helpful, and the employees seem to appreciate it. We use it to run our company, and it has allowed us to add more employees up to a point without too much additional cost. ----- ### "Best tool for employee mangement" — 5.0/5 > **James** | *April 3, 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Creating a schedule for 20+ people can be done in minutes, easily customizable. the best option to move up from Excel which we were using beforehand. > > **Cons**: the post-shift adjustments can be more manageable. for large groups of employees difficult to compare what was scheduled vs what was worked at a glance. reports can be labeled a bit better > > very positive, it saves me hours on payroll, scheduling, and time attendance. ----- Page: 1 / 53\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ca/software/90360/when-i-work?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ca/software/90360/when-i-work) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | ----- ## Structured Data
