"I ADORE 7shifts, I love the fact that it is super easy to use on the app or on the website. It has relieved quite a bit if stress due to scheduling. It makes it easy when the team member has multiple roles as well."

Jon Downes

Owner Operator

"I use 7shifts not only for my kitchen scheduling, but most importantly for my part-time catering event staff. Most of our event staff signs up for shifts based on their availability, 7shifts allow us to be much more flexible, increases the communication to staff about upcoming events and allows us to schedule weeks in advance. This app/program has saved me probably at least 5 hours per week. Thank you!"
