WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS HAVE TO SAY

Scheduling Success Stories from the Fire Service

“If we have a special ops team deployment coming up, team leaders can send out messages asking who is available. Now, we've got a real-time, quick count of who can go on a deployment.”

“We can even be on scene of a large incident and use the mobile app to initiate employee recalls to have people come back in and backfill our stations. No longer do we need someone actually in the station to do so.”

“The DCs can select the work type so that each person gets tracked and paid correctly. And when we export to payroll, we won't have to re-enter a bunch of data into different systems. ”
