Testimonials
from WhenToWork Users
We receive nice comments about our system from users every day...here are a
few from some of the various industries we serve.

Emergency Medical Services - EMT Scheduling |
|
Chris Stawasz , Executive Director |
|
Rockingham Regional Ambulance, Inc.
Nashua, New Hampshire
www.rockingham.org |
"As New Hampshire's largest 9-1-1 ambulance service our experience with WhenToWork has been nothing short of excellent.
We cannot even imagine how we got along without it! With nearly 200 employees operating out of 3 sites the advantages of internet scheduling are tremendous. The flexibility for employees is great as are the accountability controls of who has viewed and accepted their schedules. We love it!"

Joseph J. Davis, EMS Director |
|
 St. Luke's - Roosevelt Hospital
New York, New York |
"The program is terrific. It has made a
dramatic impact on how
we do scheduling."
"Covering slots for an Emergency Medical Service is a HUGE headache...your
system has taken the headaches away. This program has been a tremendous help to
our service. Every EMS could benefit from it. Filling vacancies has never
been this easy. Part-time folks "take" available slots almost as they are
posted. No more phone calls. No more post-its on the board."
Scott Levine,
Paramedic - Atlantic Ambulance

 LORCOTT
PRODUCTIONS, INC.
Basking Ridge, New Jersey www.lorcott.com |
"I am a paramedic for Atlantic Ambulance. This is a second career for me. My
first career is that of a television director traveling around the world to meet
my clients’ needs.
The TV business is quite dynamic. A show for tomorrow or next week can come up
at a moment’s notice (and go away as quickly). The melding of these two vastly
different occupations DEMANDS FLEXIBILITY. With When2Work, no matter when or
where in the world I am, I can quickly add or drop shifts as the need arises.
There is ABSOLUTELY NO WAY I could handle both careers without this invaluable
tool. BRAVO W2W!!!!!"

 The
Lyric Theatre
Blacksburg, VA
www.thelyric.com |
"Our volunteers love the ability to see where volunteers are
needed and sign up online without coming to the theater.
They find it easy to
use and far more convenient than the previous system. Since using this system
the filling of slots has improved dramatically over the old paper calendar." |

"You provide Customer Service like NO ONE ON THIS PLANET. You
guys are so wonderful that I cannot tell you. Your system can actually help run
a business better by better scheduling our labor dollars."
"I just wanted to say thank you very much
for your prompt and thorough answers. We will definitely be using your services
for the long term. It is really refreshing to find a company with quality
customer support.
"I just want to say

Fun Centers Scheduling |
|
"I have demoed two other web based
scheduling programs and when I tried whentowork.com I was so impressed I signed up
for a year even before my expiration of my demo. You program is very user
friendly and easy to use. I love the features.
...It is rare to find this much efficiency in the software/web industry! I will
certainly pass along and recommend your services!"

Jungle Gym Rock Climbing, LLC.

"I LOVE IT!! I
found WhenToWork a few months back when we were looking for a faster, easier,
reliable and more comprehensive way to handle our scheduling needs. WhenToWork
has been just that, faster, easier, reliable and more comprehensive. It saves me
tons of time each month when I do the schedule, not to mention how quick and
easy it is to make changes later. My staff loves being able to check their
schedule at a moments notice from the web, and time-off requests are so easy
now!
Not only do I love the program itself, customer support ROCKS!!! They
respond to emails within minutes during business hours, and have been able to
answer all my questions quickly and painlessly, customer service is absolutely a
top priority! Keep up the good work!"

Seasonal Operations Scheduling |
"Our seasonal staff is made up of mostly high school & college students. Until we
started using WhenToWork two years ago, I would spend hours each week on a
work schedule only to find that their availability had changed in the meantime.
The real time employee availability “drop downs” eliminate that issue entirely.
A task that used to be time consuming and frustrating is now quick and easy. The
shift trade board also allows me to transfer the responsibility for finding
shift coverage to my staff while maintaining control over final changes.
This product was developed with the user in mind. It’s easy to use and
functional from both a staff and management perspective.
If you dread scheduling and value your time, you should try WhenToWork.
It’s a great tool at an affordable price!" |

"Dear WhenToWork Team: I want to congratulate you on producing
such a great product. We have cut our scheduling time costs by 80% and our
employees are very happy with the flexibility you have allowed us to implement
with shift swaps and time off requests.
My supervisor team also tell me how responsive you are to new development
requests. Some minor changes often being implemented in days. Thanks." |

 Sylvan Learning Center #2317
Saginaw, MI |
"Juggling a staff of
around 30 employees whose availability plus our need for them changed not only
weekly, but often daily was a difficult task. One of my administrative
assistants used to have to phone everyone every Friday and then again during the
week as things changed daily, but often messages were not received in time. It
was a big headache. With WhenToWork.com employees have instant e-mail of any
changes we make and can check schedules easily on line. Even at home I can get
messages about their need to change work times or request time off so I know
before I get to work the next morning. I love the convenience and the time it
saves us!"

 STOP n’ GO Oil Change, Inc.
Mount Joy, Pennsylvania |
"I have to tell you, I love your program. We looked everywhere for a
program that would work for us and your program does. Some things of course, we
may not be able to use as it should be because our people and times change all
the time. We have an oil change and a repair shop and we have just recently
started running with mostly part time people so it’s different all the time.
But, it works for us and I love it. Thanks. Also love the fact that if I have
a question or send an e-mail, I get an immediate response. Thanks for the great
customer service.
"My favorite feature is that after the initial set-up I only have to spend 10 minutes or so doing a weekly schedule. I was spending up to 5-6 hrs every month doing this manually...this is WONDERFUL and affordable for small businesses. Thank you!!! |

 Ice Cream Fanatics, Inc
Cold Stone Creamery Franchisee
Champaign, Illinois |
"At Cold Stone we have more than 40 employees who use this tool to submit
their availability, preferences and requests for time off. This is a
user-friendly application that eliminates most schedule headaches by keeping
everything documented, centrally organized and accurate. The crew members at the
store love it because they access their schedule from any internet connection,
check their schedules online and can even trade shifts online with little
effort. The advanced tools allow me to perform budget analysis on labor and
quickly make adjustments to the schedule if necessary. It’s been a lifesaver
by decreasing my scheduling time by 400% and is easily one of the best
investments I’ve made to date."

 MaggieMoo's Ice Cream & Treatery
Richmond, Virginia

"My employees and I love the
features that WhenToWork.com offers. We are a start up company and are
extremely busy with setting up all our operational procedures, marketing efforts
and cost controls. Scheduling for 20 plus part time employees can take a lot of
time that I currently don't have. WhenToWork.com has saved me time and
alleviated the aggravation that this process creates. My employees are young and
are comfortable with using Web in their daily lives. Offering them the
opportunity to review and trade their schedules as well as request time off
online has been very well received. The record keeping and tracking features are
also of great benefit for all the official information I need to maintain.
I would recommend WhenToWork.com to anyone that is looking to streamline a
rather difficult process. The value we receive is well worth the price we pay
for the capabilities on WhentoWork.com."

"When2Work has greatly shortened the amount of time that I spend
compiling the schedules each week especially now that we have multiple
locations. We rarely have issues with schedule conflicts because everyone can
input their time preferences ahead of time and this information is available
when I am making the next week's schedule. Plus, the parents of our high school
employees like it because they know when their children are scheduled to work
and can always check to confirm their work schedule. When2Work is a great product and is a great improvement over scheduling by
hand or spreadsheets."

"Our agency could not be more pleased with the WhenToWork system.
It has proven itself to be reliable
and very effective at handling our scheduling needs. We operate a transportation
system for individuals with mental and physical challenges which often creates
a constantly changing environment, WhenToWork suits us well in this as it
allows constant changes with automatic notification to the employees. We
struggled for years dealing with availability and matching the right employee to
the right shifts, now with WhenToWork we can really automate the difficult parts
of that process. Of course the support we receive is unparalleled - we can
get answers to our questions and request changes to the software just about
anytime, the staff at W2W respond very quickly! Thanks for the reliable and
helpful service!" |

Cheryl Gudauskas,
Laguna Woods Village Aquatics Department |
|
 Professional Community Management
Laguna Woods, California |
"After using it since July 2005, I have most of my staff completely online, less
paper schedules and better communication. There are very few scheduling errors
and the ability to communicate with everyone has increased productivity and team
cohesiveness.
The company I work for is Professional Community Management at Laguna Woods
Village. I run the Aquatics Department, with 5 locations...It is a very
complicated scheduling process and this makes it a breeze.
I am soooo happy with the new updates. The dates specific preferences are
great since I schedule out 2 weeks in advance and many of my employees are
students with changing schedules...
I continue to brag about this web site to everyone and you just keep getting
better and better. This web site saves me at least 10 hours a week on my scheduling!"
"I just published my first schedule and staff is really impressed with
the system... Thanks for your help and so far this program has been working
great." |

"Dear When2Work,
Just wanted to let you know how much I love your scheduling software. The number
of wasted hours and headaches that this program saves me from are innumerable.
I have been the chief scheduler for the last 2 years at the University of North
Dakota Aerospace Dispatch. I have ~35 employees, six positions, and two
locations that I do the scheduling for. This program not only makes my life
easier, the employees that I do the scheduling for love it as well. The
reliable online access, as well as the ease of trading shifts and requesting
time off is wonderful and the employees love it.
When2Work has been an invaluable asset and I highly recommend it to anyone
who has 10 or more employees to schedule.
Thank you for making my task or scheduling easier, and my employees happier."

"Webster University Help Desk has used WhenToWork for over two years now. WhenToWork not only saves myself and my staff many hours a week it allows me to run ad hoc reports to support my business needs. It has also enabled us to track staffing over time, display our schedules in different ways to suit different needs and provides a robust communication system as well.
My staff of mainly student workers like the easy to use interface and my managers like the versatility. WhenToWork was just what we were looking for and its low cost and hosted service are an added bonus." |

Library Scheduling |
|
Norma J Dowell,
Library Assistant IV, Instruction Department |
|
 Iowa State University Library
Ames, Iowa
www.lib.iastate.edu |
"For the Reference and Instruction Department at Iowa State University
Library, WhenToWork has been the best
application for organizing our department scheduling.
I work with around 20 people with varying schedules that have to be
puzzle-pieced into a working desk schedule. Their meetings, research time,
time-off, course instruction, etc. all have to be considered when setting up a
schedule for the semester. Anyone who has tried to arrange WhenToWork has truly
taken all the guesswork out of building weekly schedules:
- We have developed an extensive set of templates that help keep meeting
rotations and base schedules clear
- The color codes make everything even clearer
- Employees make their own trades and do not need assistance from a manager
when there are conflicts
- The autofill feature is a godsend when there are large holes to fill
during major conferences
- Managers are in the loop about every change on the boards
- Everyone knows when there is a hole to fill (when someone is sick or there is
an emergency)
This is one of the most intuitive and cost-effective applications on the market
today. I highly recommend WhenToWork to any university library with a large
staff in need of a web-based scheduling system."

 Kwantlen University College

"As the system administrator in the library, I work with a variety of
Helpdesks both internally to my institution and externally. I have to tell
you that your support is the best I've ever seen! Your response time is
phenomenal and I've yet to be dissatisfied with the quality or accuracy of your
answers."
"Scheduling staff in libraries is very complicated, and this software
accomplishes it handily. We'd never go back to the old way of creating
schedules. Your support team has been very helpful when we've wanted to figure
out how to push the system to solve a schedule need unique to us. Libraries
really should look at your product, and the service is the speediest I've ever
encountered!" |

MEDiPARK Valet Services

"WhenToWork is INCREDIBLE !!! Our
business is built around being able to schedule 150 employees at multiple
locations on a daily basis. We have tried many different software programs
through the years and have always found it frustrating until we found WhentoWork.
It is user friendly, adaptable and the support staff always responds quickly and
we have yet to find anything that they are not willing to try to implement. We
highly recommend WhentoWork.com"
"...your product is amazing and
your company has been great at continuing to improve the functionality and
convenience of the website. We would not be able to manage close to 100
employees working at various locations throughout the Twin Cities without
WhenToWork!" |

"We have been using when to work for about two years now and it is, by far, the best scheduling system we’ve ever used. I continue to ask myself “How did we ever managed schedule without it?” whentowork, or W2W as we call it, has become an essential, much needed part of our daily 24/7 security operation.
What a great tool to have, and even better is the swift, friendly and professional support we receive from the customer support team.
Thank you all for making our scheduling needs a breeze."

"Thanks again for the great program... WhenToWork has really
increased our efficiency and virtually eliminated instances of people 'not
knowing' when to work due to changes, etc."

Joe Ryan,
Security Manager |

 CPS
Toledo,

"Since the use of the WhenToWork system,
our scheduling headaches have pretty much been eliminated. My staff has the
ability to trade shifts or pick up open shifts. I have reduced my scheduling
time by nearly 85% and due to using the W2W system to verify times, my payroll
tasks have been reduced by at least 50%. Of all the programs and subscriptions I have paid for since taking over this
position, I can say without a doubt that the W2W was the best return for my
investment. I cannot see myself without WhenToWork."
"We discovered WhenToWork about a year and a half ago and it has reduced our
scheduling cost and time spent on scheduling by more than 80%. It has given
us numerous benefits with the various options to communicate to our employees
like bulletin boards, messaging, broadcast emergency messaging, etc.
Everything we need to know about our client contracts and our employees is now
available at our fingertips and easily assessable world wide wherever there is
an Internet connection. With our supervisors out in the field with laptops and
wireless cards we have the ability to make changes to scheduling quickly and
efficiently as needed and to notify the employee immediately via e-mail and
alert paging.
I have reviewed numerous other online scheduling programs in the past and found
WhenToWork to be the most user friendly...and continue to take customer input
and continually upgrade their system making it more effective and giving the
customers more value....customer support is phenomenal with response times
typically within minutes.
I do not see us using any other type of scheduling program except WhenToWork for
many years to come. Thank you to WhenToWork and its team for the outstanding job
on this program and your high level of customer service!"

"You have the best system I have found to replace my old way of
scheduling! With about 80 part time high school and college students that work
for me schedules used to be time consuming. Their schedules change as much as my
staffing needs! Between the school year programs and the summer activities that
we offer things can get busy. My staff loves being able to do everything on
line that you offer and I love all the components that you offer that work for
my unique staffing needs. Thanks for listening to feedback too.

"Wow. I have been working with the program and find it easy to work
with. If I am stuck with something your chat line is right there and guides me.
The schedules are easy to make and maintain and I find it easy to maneuver
the program. Less paper work, less frustration. I have paid for the
next three months after having used it for only one schedule. Wish I had found
this program a long time ago. Gotta tell, I love it. |

"I am the co-founder of a small retail financial services
company. When we started, 18 months ago, I would do all scheduling of the (2!)
front-line sales folks in excel. As we grew, it got completely unmanageable.
Within 3 months I had 5 stores and 3 sales reps in each. I just KNEW that some
smart person out there must have invented an online solution for my scheduling
needs. I did some research and ran across W2W. It was EXACTLY what I was looking
for. It does everything I need with the simplicity required so that even
non-computer savvy employees can log-in and see their schedules. Payroll is a
snap with the reports. And viewing the overall staffing strategy of the now 17
stores is easy with the graphic views. All of this at a truly unbeatable
variable price.
The few times I have had questions from the company, they have been very
responsive (with real people, not auto-answer emails!) and solved my problems
immediately.
The service has been an indispensable tool for our growth." |
