Does anyone have any real experience with Shifton?

Listen, we have almost the same picture in our construction company, only instead of drivers, we have teams of workers. The sites are in different areas, everyone works on different days, some only on weekends, some with a break, plus weather conditions – sometimes the shift needs to be shifted literally the day before. We switched to https://shifton.com/shift-scheduling in September last year. And, honestly, at first I also treated it with mistrust. But for more than six months now – and, perhaps, this is one of the most useful decisions we have made. In essence, the shift schedule creator in Shifton is an interactive brain. It does not just fill in the cells: you set the parameters (availability of people, time limits, who works where, who is incompatible with whom, etc.), and based on this, it compiles a schedule. For example, we have workers who cannot be assigned to one site together due to a conflict – and the system takes this into account. You can also set “hard” and “soft” restrictions, and this flexibility really helps. The coolest thing is the system’s reaction to force majeure. If one of them gets sick, you remove them from the shift, and Shifton suggests from the available employees who can replace them, taking into account that the other rules are not violated (no more than 40 hours a week, no two night shifts in a row, etc.). Previously, I spent an hour fiddling with this, now it’s a minute, and everything is ready. The schedule is immediately updated and sent to the guys in the app.
