This system has taken payroll from 6 hours to complete to 30 minutes. > > **Cons**: The pay code calculations code be a little better but our pay codes are difficult to understand not a fault of eSchedule > > \[sensitive content hidden\] is amazing and is always ready to help and always knocks the ball out of the park with whatever is thrown her way ----- ### "HR Director" — 5.0/5 > **Cindy** | *08 September 2025* | Medical Practice | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Very responsive to technical issues and requests. The timekeeping component integrates well with our payroll system. > > **Cons**: We have no complaints that come to mind, but thank you for asking. > > Very positive, excellent customer service. ----- ### "Makes time tracking and payroll much more efficient" — 5.0/5 > **Lana** | *22 August 2025* | Public Safety | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It makes managing shifts and payroll much smoother. One of my favorite features is the ability to clock in and out directly in the system—it saves time and keeps everything accurate. Overall, it’s a reliable tool that makes scheduling simple and efficient. > > **Cons**: The only drawback I’ve noticed with eSchedule is that it can feel a little overwhelming at first because of all the features. Once you get used to the layout, though, it becomes much easier to navigate. Some of the reports don't make sense for our use and there are some reports I wish could be created but I haven't been able to. But \[sensitive content hidden\] continues to bother the programmers with my requests (in a good way\!). > > My overall experience with eSchedule has been very positive. The system is user-friendly and makes payroll and time tracking much more efficient. I especially appreciate the reports feature, which helps keep accurate records. It’s been a reliable tool that simplifies day-to-day administrative tasks and keeps everything organized. ----- ### "Gold star company\!" — 5.0/5 > **Sara** | *23 September 2025* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: This team goes over the top in customer service\! Always willing to find a way to make the program work for your organization. We've been using them for 7 years, and they continue to get back to us within a day if we need to reevaluate our schedule. > > **Cons**: Can't say a bad word about this company. We all wish everything would cost less, so I would say a discount or kickback program for longevity of companies. > > In a world of automated answering, and never getting to speak with a human, eSchedule is a breath of fresh air. They answer the phone, or will respond back to a message within a day. Over the time with our organization, they have seamlessly achieved a multitude of our asks. Eschedule continues to earn our support, and strives to be the best they can be. Huge shout out to \[sensitive content hidden\], who have always had our best interest in mind. They keep us in the loop with suggestions and ask appropriate questions to solve the concerns at hand. ----- ### "New Brunswick Fire Department eschedule review" — 5.0/5 > **Jake** | *08 September 2025* | Public Safety | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10 > > **Pros**: Customer service is top notch\! \[sensitive content hidden\] are always available and extremely helpful\! I also love how they help to make the platform work around our department. They have modified and added so many features after speaking with us to make everything exactly what we need. > > **Cons**: Wish the scheduling app was slightly easier to use. Drag and drop for the schedule. Firefighters like easy\! Especially the ones doing the scheduled. Wish the forms could be in sub categories. We have made so many (and they are great) the drop down just gets overwhelming. Love the fact it not only handles scheduling but also messaging and forms. One stop shop\! > > Great. No issues. Since starting with eschedule we have grown the platform together. That’s very important I believe ----- Page: 1 / 4\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/142521/eschedule?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/142521/eschedule) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
