Satisfaction Guaranteed!
Overall, I am very happy with Aladtec. The layout of the website is very user friendly, and quick to learn how to use.
- The ease of the access and use on a PC or mobile device is excellent
- I like that I can set up text and/or email alerts/reminders for upcoming scheduled shifts
- I also receive alerts for open shifts that have just become available
- Signing up for vacation days, compensatory time off, sick time for medical reasons, open shifts, and overtime is a breeze
- Being able to view the entire month's schedule for myself, and/or everyone at my agency is very convenient
- I am also able to view my banked and used benefit time, and see my available uniform allowance balance
- There are no cons, in my opinion
- I have no complaints as to the set-up and format of the software
- It's very straightforward and easy to use

Very satisfied
Good. We left and came back after realizing another company had no idea how to manage schedules over 24 hours
- Simple, straightforward
- Easy for users to understand
- We tried another product that had more features but it only confused non-tech savvy users
- Time clock is limited, no geofencing right now
- We like how simple it is but we are in need of this feature

Web-Based scheduling makes it easy to check my schedule from anywhere.
We have recently switched over from a Pay-Per-Call to Part-Time Fire Department. We use Aladtec to sign up for and schedule or shifts and training. It's easy to sign up for a shift and to check upcoming shifts. I also love that the system sends me a text notification 24 hours before my next shift. That has saved my butt when I had signed up for an earlier shift than I intended to and had not noticed my mistake. When I received the reminder alert, I was able to solve the problem with admin.
- Web-based makes it easy to use from anywhere
- I can log in on my phone, or at any computer, I am at either at the Fire Station or at home
- The interface is fairly intuitive, nothing seems too complicated
- Easy to sign up for shifts and initiate trade requests
- Text alerts for upcoming shifts is very handy as well
- We need to hit a certain number for hours each quarter
- It would be nice if the option was available to see the total number of hours worked or scheduled to work for a certain timeframe

Aladtec Scheduling Software Review
I enjoy the product's ease of use and being able to forgo manually updating repeating schedules, as it can be pushed out for several years. I give it a 9 on a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being the best! We are very satisfied with Aladtec.
- Aladtec is easy to use and saves countless hours of time
- Their customer support team is better than any other support team I have ever had to deal with
- They are quick to answer the phone, they are extremely knowledgeable about their product and ensure you get the exact help you need
- There really isn't much to dislike at all
- Perhaps being able to search and trouble shoot some of the features you've forgotten how to use would be helpful
- Also, being a systems administrator for scheduling, it would be great if their mobile app allowed me to access my full teams schedule so I can use the app to give employees time off and then send out a shift alert for coverage, instead of having to go onto the web to do
- Other than that, it really is an awesome product

ACC Aladtec experience
Excellent Experience. Instructors sign up for shifts. Lead instructors approve sign ups. Employees can trade between each other which are then approved by course leads.
Ease of use, entering new employees, moving employees between various categories, employees signing up for shifts, etc
- The inability to adjust open time in the middle of a period easily
- For example, a course from 10:30-14:30 must be manually adjusted instead of being able to use a slide tool

Verified UserBest Management Tool Around.
I have been using Aladtec for staff scheduling, and other workforce management tasks, for ten years. I’ve introduced it in every service where I’ve been a Director. I have used other systems but Aladtec is by far the best. This system stands out because it is great for both admin and field staff. Many systems are easy for the admin staff to run, because that’s who the provider is selling the software to, but the member users hate it because it is hard to use or not intuitive. Aladtec however, is easy to use and intuitive for all; it takes almost no hands-on training to get new users up and running. Aladtec and their team are some of the best that I have ever delt with in any industry. truly a company and product worth the time to check out. It has in every situation cut operation costs significantly. Pays for it self in no time whatsoever. I highly recommend these products to anyone who really wants to streamline their company and the day-to-day operations.
- Several reasons in no particular order
- Customer support, Aladtec understands what each user needs individually and did not sell me a cut and paste/one size fits some kind of product
- I have had some complicated truck and schedule rotations that were advanced and many other systems could not handle what I was needing
- Since Aladtec built each system for me from the ground up it gave me everything I needed and nothing that I did not
- Next was the ease of use for admin and staff
- Aladtec is intuitive and takes little to no training for users to be up and running
- The reporting section was next
- I had to have detailed reports for many different items, and Aladtec gave me or made for me every report that I needed every time
- They also have a forms section where I can make complicated forms very easy
- I am not a computer programmer but with the form tool you would never know that
- I have several check off sheets, employee evaluations,
- None whatsoever
- Aladtec and their products are the best around

Crew schedule and management of personnel for shift work at Fire department
Higher Education
- The mobile version of this website has had a huge boost in improvement since its first renditions
- It is fairly easy to navigate each individual page and management personnel from the phone
- I don't like that I can no longer see my available hours for PTO, trade, or sick time
- I thought that having the feature available in My Info page would be a nice added bonus
- Also we I apply for time off it would be nice if the program warned me if the time requested would put me over the allocated time I have
- This may have been a feature my admin has disabled but I think it should be a mandatory field

Love this scheduling program
This is our first computer scheduling software, we went from paper to this software. The transition was super easy and our staff love how easy it is to use.
- This software is easy to use, my staff is able to sign up for shifts on their own for self scheduling
- This takes most of the work off of me as the manager
- The staff is able to have 24/7 access to their schedule
- Nursing admin and charge nurses are able to edit schedule in real time
- This software is super user friendly
- When editing the schedule there are a lot of clicks involved
- It would be nice to be able to schedule a staff member days at a time instead of just one day at a time
Why they chose it
"Aladtec seemed more user friendly for both the staff and the admin."

User friendly and customizable
We spent an excessive amount of time changing and managing the schedule. Aladtec has taken a significant amount of that off the supervisors plates and given the staff more of a say in their work lives.
- We went from a paper system to atladtec
- It has cut the hours spent scheduling and fixing the schedule by 2/3
- The staff can find thier own coverage and trade or give shifts away
- I like that you can customize so much in this system
- You cannot block schedule from view of managers when it is unpublished
- So when it is in the tentative phase the charge nurses can see and make changes
- This creates a problem

Review of Demo of Aladtec
This would be a great problem solver for our spreadsheet and paper-based time and attendance system. However, I couldn't get over the fact that it wasn't very easy to set up. There are a lot of other offices that I spoke with that gave them a very high review. Maybe our time and attendance system is just too complicated for software. Don't let this discourage you. Please check them out and decide for yourself.
- This software is very versatile for the public sector, specifically law enforcement
- I demoed this software for the Jail Division of our Sheriff's Office
- It does have every feature that we need
- We can set it up specifically for our office to include comp time, shift switches, and tracking work assignments
- It was a bit complicated to figure out from the administrator side
- I was having trouble with it and I don't normally have trouble with setting up software
- This was a major road block for me
- If I don't get it
- my people won't get it
- I would constantly have been on the phone with tech support and never sure of myself with this software
