With Papershift we were able to cover the entire staff planning in the logistics centre. Previously, a weekly schedule required around 8 working hours, now the same work can be done in less than an hour, as the shifts can be booked automatically, or weekly schedules can be easily transferred.
Pros
Papershift makes it very easy to display task areas and working times very well and in detail. The support and the customer friendliness are exemplary. Each problem is dealt with individually and very precisely, within the shortest possible time.
Cons
If different time models are to be created within the created shifts, this is only possible if the shift is created with the respective individual times.

We would really like to help you with your time topic. However I am not quite sure I understand the issue.

Thanks again for using Papershift.

I use Papershift to track and manage time on hourly fee work, allow contractors to track their time on/off easily and to manage my hectic life. It works well.
Pros
Papershift is easy to use, easy to introduce to the workforce and has a very user-friendly interface that is customizable
Cons
The mobile app is not the best but we use the online app mostly anyway. There can be crashes here and there but that is expected from any software.
Response from Papershift
Hello Robert,

Regarding our mobile app we are actually working really hard on it and are stacking up on developers for our mobile section at the moment.
We hope we can improve our current apps in the coming months.

Response from Papershift
Hello Nils,
thank you for your review.
Happy to hear that you enjoy Papershift so far.
Regarding your issues about the breaks: I think you are referring to our automatic breaks. I am not quite sure what part of the break management does not comply with the German law. Maybe you can get back to me so we can further clear things up.
Thanks again for using Papershift.
Best wishes.

I’m an employee so I won’t really have much to say but in my own little encounter with papershift, it’s absolutely worth recommending.
Pros
This product is user friendly and I like the feature where you can be able to delete and readd
Cons
There should be an app instead of just a web browser. You should include notifications pop up to future events.
Response from Papershift
Hello Edwin,
Thanks a lot for your great review. We're really pleased that you are so happy with Papershift.
You can download our Plan app for free from the apple store/play store and you will be able to check your plan on the go.
We are also currently working hard to improve our apps and will be bringing out a new version in the near future.

Easy to use tool which is great for the agents.
Pros
It offers a nice and clean overview over all the teams and when someone is working and/or absent.
Especially in our company, where every agent has his cases as "one face to the customer" you can always give quick answers about the availability of agents. Changing shifts is easy with help of the planer, the overview offers great flexibility.
Cons
The main problems of what I didnt like is because of our company not having implemented every feature.
The program itself has not offered any big cons

Pros
It allows me to plan my shifts at any time of the day and I am informed immediatly if there are any changes.
Cons
I can't read more information about a shift, sometimes there would be more to read and it ends with ellipses. Also, the app does not work for me at all, takes very long to open and doesn't show the shifts (I have a Sony Xperia XA1).

I can log my work, sick days, vacations, and plan my calendar in a few clicks without disrupting my work. The app is very nice!
Pros
At my company, we work remotely and value our personal work/life balance. One of the features is the "Work Balance": I can quickly see how much time I've been working, the upcoming vacation days and holidays, and now I can plan better my own schedule. The time tracking feature is easy to input, we can note our breaks but we also have the setup that calculates it in case we forget. You can register sick dates and upload files related to it, so we don't have to wait to process it during hard times. Everything is in sync with the calendar, but my favorite feature is the sidebar, as it gives you a glance of the work balance hours and the vacation time. It's super easy to use and I know the HR team has everything organized in easy steps!
Cons
The only thing I'm missing is the auto-log hours. The feature is available, as one of the customer representatives from Papershift reached out to me once, but I'm not sure how to activate it. I guess I need to talk to the admin about that.

The operation of Papershift is not intuitive. You have to work with it for a long time so that all functions become clear.
Pros
- Time span freely selectable in 'evaluation' & 'time tracking'.
- Search function in 'vacation' & 'time tracking'.
Cons
- No public holidays will be displayed.
- Over time is onely available via 'user' -> 'evaluation'. No 'button' on the left side.
- Calendar/ overview with holiday of colleagues is hidden.
Response from Papershift
Hello Christian,
thank you for your review.
We appreciate your feedback (positive and negative). Regarding the cons you mentioned:
Public holidays should be marked in the calendar (blue font and a note with the holiday) and in the evaluation (blue "f" button).
We are currently working improving the employee dashboard (top button) and will most likely incorporate the overtime there.
Absences from your colleagues can be viewed in the calendar view (calendar icon with an x) unfortunately in the mobile view this icon will not show at the moment. If you have any further questions you can always contact our support team.
Thanks again for using Papershift.
Best wishes.
Kevin from Papershift.
