Sling Reviews & Product Details

Users like the Sling schedule app for its ease of use, flexible shift switching, and robust mobile access, which allows for scheduling, task management, and communication on the go. Key benefits include quick schedule creation using templates, simplified time-off and availability management, and powerful communication features that reduce confusion and improve efficiency for both managers and employees.

Users often dislike Sling's cumbersome interface, which can be difficult to navigate and feel "less user-friendly" than desired, especially the mobile version compared to the desktop one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is easy to read and download. I have never had to call customer support for any issues. I check this on a daily basis for my on-call schedule. It allows me to see when things have changed on my schedule and notifies me before each shift. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It does not keep a tally of my PTO. It does not keep a paycheck tracker that shows your taxes and things like that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The most useful about Sling is that you can create different shifts at different times but also you can also leave notes when you want to let someone know that you couldn't take lunch time or you had to leave earlier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Something that Sling can improve is its interface so that it can be a little bit funnier when it comes to pictures and profiles. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have always enjoyed Sling and there's really nothing I do not like. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is helpful with schedule planning on the fly.

it's good I can have it on my laptop and phone.

shift updates are instant; staff can see changes immediately and they can request time off via the app.

I love the format and easy-to-use style. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I am on the free version and I must confess this is better than some paid versions of similar apps.

I don't think I dislike anything about this app; If anything I dislike (my company) not being able to afford the Pro version because I am sure there are many more helpful features on Sling. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I can check everything about the working shift and others' shifts within one application. We also communicate with each other via Sling, create a group chat, find contacts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes, the application was frozen or kept loading. So I need to restart the application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like being able to communicate and share photos/documents easily with coworkers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes there are a lot of notifications for chats I'm not really involved in. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Being able to create repeating shifts, to be able to visualize what any given should look like, saves a lot of time and energy when planning a shift schedule. It gives a great overview of your business. I have never had to explain the software to my employees, as it is very intuitive. When we have hired new staff, we simply add them into Sling, and their shifts show up on their smartphone apps. I love to be able to keep an overview of all my currently active employees, as well as keep a log of former employees through the deactivated accounts. I feel you get extremely much functionality out of the free version of the software. I highly enjoy being able to see the schedule through different filters, or views. For example viewing only a certain group of employees (part-time employees for example), and seeing each day isolated, so I can get an overview of exactly which person is at work during which time of the day.

Every now and then there are some minor hiccups or bugs. But nothing serious has been wrong. Some actions require relatively many clicks to accomplish. I do feel the software is quite "intelligent" in guessing, what kind of action you want to make. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
