A wonderful application for small for-profit organizations

PROS & CONS What are the best aspects of this product? The best thing about Hombase is it has aided me in organizing employee's shift schedules. I also like that the application makes it easy for me to create copies or to move the existing schedule. What aspects are problematic or could work better? The only thing that I do not like about Homebase so far is that only general managers have access to the schedules of all departments. This is very limiting since there are times when ...

A handy app for business starters

PROS & CONS What are the best aspects of this product? For someone who runs a small business, this app reduces costs as I can just record my own employees' salary without the need for an accountant. They can just log in and out and it is automatically recorded in their payroll. The app even provides visual evidence of their clock in time, just in case any problem comes up in their salary. What aspects are problematic or could work better? I'm currently using the free version of this ...

Good App

What do you like best? We had issues with the guys signing in and out on the previous software we had used. It wouldn't log them in or out when they swore they had done so. Homebase has been performing so much better. The app rarely gives the guys any problems with logging in and out on their cell phones and notifies me if they forget to clock out. What do you dislike? I don't need the scheduling feature, but have no way of turning it off. I also wish there was a slightly better ...

Great for Timesheets

What do you like best? Super helpful that our employees can clock themselves in, and I can make changes when necessary. What do you dislike? The free version is very limited. Wish they offered more. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? Having a way that tracks and saves employees hours.

Good basic scheduling features for free

What do you like best? It's free! Homebase is pretty user friendly once you get everyone signed up and signed in. The registration process is a little tricky, but after that it's very easy to use in order to schedule and track employee hours for payroll. What do you dislike? It is no the easiest process to add someone to your team if you do not follow steps in a certain order. Also, it seems initially signing up is slow. Recommendations to others considering the product: ...

Does the job; ould be better

What do you like best? Homebase does the job it needs to by showing who is working when and during what shifts. You can request to trade shifts with another employee (which then requires admin approval). You can also ask for people to cover your shifts or pick up "empty" shifts. What do you dislike? The app can be quite confusing. I often feel as if I run in circles to find certain functions. My biggest gripe about Homebase is how when you set your availability as an employee, it ...

It is easy and convenient to use

What do you like best? I like the mobile app. I can update my availability anytime and also check how many time is left for my break. What do you dislike? I dislike that I cannot clock in using the mobile app. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? It facilitates my work because it is more organized and I can easily look for my colleagues who are on their shift and refer customers to them.

Homebase for Resturaunts

What do you like best? It is easy to see the entire workplace schedule. I can see exactly who is working where and what hours very easily. It is easy to trade/request off shifts. There is also a tab for “open shifts” that makes finding shifts to pick up very easy. What do you dislike? The messaging on this app is the same as text messaging on a cell phone, which can get overwhelming and annoying if you’re also using text messaging to communicate with co-workers. What problems ...
