> 
> **Cons**: Nothing. It’s been a great service &#10;&#10;The layout and functionality of the dashboard is user friendly and self explanatory
> 
> 10/10.&#10;&#10;I use When I Work fir all of our 5 businesses. &#10;&#10;The staff have this on their work phones and can see all customer details for their shifts

-----

### "Reccomended" — 5.0/5

> **Gareth** | *30 October 2025* | Facilities Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Cost effective way of tracking our team, costs and time on sites, helping the PM's track performance and budgets.
> 
> **Cons**: a little fiddly to use in the initial stages, the online guides are easy to understand. Not enough support available for end users on mobiles though
> 
> Positive, the PM's appreciate the level of detail and the lads understand its importance tracking time on site.

### "Stick to the smaller guys. Biggest companies suck" — 2.0/5

> **Jessie** | *5 August 2024* | Photography | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Drag and dropping shifts and the colour coded job sites.
> 
> **Cons**: After being a customer for over a decade since the very beginning. We missed the alterations to the annual plan deadline by less than a week due to being off work with a sick child. &#10;When I work doesn't care and will not support. &#10;They have now lost one of their longest customers.&#10;They used to care about their customers, now they don't.
> 
> The larger the company got the less they cared.

### "When i work use" — 4.0/5

> **Dan** | *15 September 2024* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: This was simple to follow and customer support was easily on hand too.
> 
> **Cons**: The menus could be clearer and easier to navigate around.
> 
> I was overall confortable using this product

-----

### "So Helpful" — 4.0/5

> **Levi** | *28 October 2019* | Food & Beverages | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love the functions and ease of picking up shifts and getting to see the schedule for your workplace, the fact that you can see who you are working with and what days. I also love the chat for communication with you co-workers.
> 
> **Cons**: The thing I least liked about the software was that it sometimes lagged, while also can get confusing to see when there is shifts available, but besides that it was a great platform.
> 
> Excelent, it is an extremely useful tool, before we had all of our schedules in an excel file and it made it really hard an complicated, but now with 'When I Work' it is all so much easier to understand and pick up and drop shifts.
