The software allows managers to assign shifts and tasks to employees across multiple work sites, using a single shared calendar. \n\nSling is built around four central features, including tasks, shifts, messages and newsfeed, and allows managers to coordinate all scheduling tasks on one platform. Managers can create shift schedules, manage shift trade and time-off requests; chat with employees and share photos, links and videos; post information and updates to a company newsfeed, and create and assign tasks to employees.\n\nShift templates can be saved and reused any number of times, saving time for scheduling managers. Within the template, data can be filtered by date, position or department to find out the total number of employees assigned to a particular task or department. Employees can submit time-off and shift trade requests via the employee portal, where they're sent to the location manager for approval and re-assignment to other staff members where necessary. \n\nUsers can create to-do lists and tasks, then assign these to a single employee or a group of employees. Users can set task timelines which generate automatic SMS or email reminders a few days before the deadline. Employees can send messages, work files, photos, videos and links to each other via Sling, as well as search for past conversations using keywords. Retail and restaurant outlets that have used Sling include Subway, Aveda, The UPS Store, Applebee’s and Securitas.","image":"https://gdm-catalog-fmapi-prod.imgix.net/ProductScreenshot/8074abce-613e-4b34-961c-07dae1e877b9.png","url":"https://www.getapp.ie/software/105033/sling","@id":"https://www.getapp.ie/software/105033/sling#software","@type":"SoftwareApplication","applicationCategory":"BusinessApplication","publisher":{"@id":"https://www.getapp.ie/#organization"},"aggregateRating":{"@type":"AggregateRating","ratingValue":4.6,"bestRating":5,"ratingCount":208},"offers":{"price":"2","@type":"Offer","priceCurrency":"USD"},"operatingSystem":"Cloud, Apple, Windows, Android, Platform ios, Platform ipad"},{"name":"Schedule it","description":"From only £249 month - Schedule It is a resource scheduling solution which can be used for planning employees, facilities, training, equipment, and more. The system is suitable for businesses of all sizes, and can be hosted in the cloud, or installed on-premise on Windows desktops.\n\nSchedule It’s drag-and-drop interface enables users to create, edit, move, and reallocate events for multiple resources, employees, or rooms, and gives visibility into the availability of all resources. Automated checks detect issues with availability, skills, or double-bookings, with tools for conflict resolution. Automatic skills matching can be used to match employees with jobs, or tutors with training courses. Details of employees, customers, clients, tutors, and delegates are stored in a centralized database, and documents can be stored in the system and linked with jobs. For training courses, invitations can be sent out by email, and attendees’ responses update the event schedule.\n\nEmployee workloads, shift plans, task lists, office rotas, customer appointments, and other activities can be managed, with a full task and event history stored for users to generate reports and analyze utilization of resources. Schedules can be viewed through the web, desktop, and mobile apps, and synchronized with a range of tools including Apple iCal, Google Calendar, Outlook, and more.","image":"https://gdm-catalog-fmapi-prod.imgix.net/ProductScreenshot/4a09cbd6-cc8e-4119-8308-59e8f0e33ef8.png","url":"https://www.getapp.ie/software/106929/schedule-it","@id":"https://www.getapp.ie/software/106929/schedule-it#software","@type":"SoftwareApplication","applicationCategory":"BusinessApplication","publisher":{"@id":"https://www.getapp.ie/#organization"},"aggregateRating":{"@type":"AggregateRating","ratingValue":4.9,"bestRating":5,"ratingCount":40},"offers":{"price":"45","@type":"Offer","priceCurrency":"GBP"},"operatingSystem":"Cloud, Apple, Windows, Linux, Windows on premise, Linux on premise, Chrome, Android, Platform ios, Platform ipad"},{"@id":"https://www.getapp.ie/compare/105033/106929/sling/vs/schedule-it#breadcrumblist","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"name":"Home","position":1,"item":"/","@type":"ListItem"},{"name":"Direct Deposit Payroll Software","position":2,"item":"/directory/3683/direct-deposit-payroll/software","@type":"ListItem"},{"name":"Sling vs Schedule it","position":3,"item":"https://www.getapp.ie/compare/105033/106929/sling/vs/schedule-it","@type":"ListItem"}]}]}
