Would be nice if the clock in and out reminders first checked to see whether we had already checked in or out. It’s annoying to be reminded an hour after I already clocked out.

Smart watch

This is a great app and I love using it for work. However I feel like it would be beneficial for a lot of people who use it if it connected to a smart watch (Apple watch) so you can clock in and out easier through the watch as I put my phone away a bit before I start work. I then have to go get my phone and clock in or clock in early. So being able to clock in right as I’m actually starting work on my watch would be very helpful.

Frustrated!! Automatically logged out and cannot turn off MFA

App kept logged out by itself almost every day. When staff need to clock in and out, they have to call me to get the account password and authenticator numbers (which RosterElf said cannot be turned off once linked to Xero). Will keep using for a while to see if they improve otherwise will have to find another clock in/out app. So frustrated!!

Keeps logging out

After the recent update, my account keeps logging out and it’s kinda annoying

Much to improve

We recently switched from Deputy to RosterElf at our restaurant, and unfortunately, it hasn’t been a smooth transition. While RosterElf shows great potential, almost everyone on the team has encountered issues with it. Wether managers or staff.
The platform can be frustrating to use—rostering is more difficult than it should be, and we keep getting logged out unexpectedly. There’s a few things that don’t make sense. It’s the small things that really add up and impact the overall experience. Basic features seem to be missing, like seeing the total number of hours scheduled for the week or clearer shift details. Ui really needs rework. Although it did get better the past few updates it’s still messy.
With some improvements, RosterElf could be a fantastic tool, and I’ll be happy to update my review as it gets better. But right now it feels more like a hassle than a help.

terrible new UI

have been using rosterelf through my company for the last year, and the app just released a new update and the UI is just terrible. previous version was simple but effective. new update adds superfluous windows and pop-ups for a “sleeker” look that just make everything clunky and more difficult than needs be.

not great

it doesnt let me change my availability and or change between my shifts, swaps, avails, and leave

Slow to make changes, string people along

After years of being told an API is weeks away, today we’ve decided to pull the pin and move into another platform. Has been a waste of our time waiting / finding work arounds.

Not a free app

Not a free app! disappointed

Great app but doesn’t let me view everything on iphone

I’ve been using this app and it’s worked perfectly fine until I switched from Samsung to apple and now I can’t change what I’m viewing. I cannot click and see shift swaps, avails and leave. It only lets me view today when I open the app and I have a shift to click into. Please fix this! Would be very helpful. Thank you.

Controlling app!

Great app

Great app! Very efficient and nice neat layout making my current and previous roster review nice and easy :)

Business Owner

This app makes rostering so seamless! Before I downloaded RosterElf I was using spreadsheets and I cannot believe how much time I’ve gained!
It’s also saved us a lot on paper already as we used to print leave slips for our employees to fill out whereas now they just apply for leave and shift swaps on the app.
It makes managing staff much easier and saves us a lot of time, couldn’t be happier!

Fantastic Customer Service!

RosterElf have been absolutely amazing! I’m new to rosters for my staff and they have been really great at understanding my needs and helping me understand how I can use their software to make admin easier for the business. I cannot recommend these guys enough!

Saves me Heaps of Time

Love this program been using for a year or so now. It has freed up seriously like 2 hrs per week of mine on mucking around calling staff, updating spreadsheets, reentering into Xero worksheets. It’s integration is awesome, and I can and have been using it on my iPad since the start so not sure why others struggle with this. Rosters, and payroll for 10 employees done and dusted weekly in 10 minutes or less.

Great potential, but too buggy to be usable

I have just set this up for my small business and got all employees to download the app. However you can’t log onto the website on a mobile device and the app isn’t working properly. When opening the app everything freezes on the loading screen, with just a spinning wheel. Deleting and reinstalling the app looks like it fixes it, but this isn’t a suitable workaround considering it needs to be done daily. Really hope this is fixed before my free trial period is up, or I won’t continue using it.

Camera function

takes ages for the camera to open this bug should be fixed

What’s the point

The problem with this app is all the staff have different phones and if it’s not compatible with all devices it can’t be used to run a business. Doesn’t even work on the extremely common IPhone 6s

Nothing ever loads on the app

App opens up but nothing ever loads. Have had it for around half a year, never got to use it as it never loaded anything. But kept it thinking next update would do it but nah, still not working

App is terrible

App Is terrible. When I don’t use the app for 1 day and go back on it I have to delete and re download it so I can access it. It also doesn’t let me reset my password!! Terrible app confused why business use it
