Initially we started with Excel and tried another scheduling software and finally ended up with Lightning Bolt - glad we did, it has created the best schedule for us. The consultants at Lighting Bolt are great - training was straight forward and the software is easy to use. I'm assuming it is something with the algorithm but the software handles itself and fills any gaps in the schedule.

Drawbacks:

Initial pricing seemed a bit out of our range - it's been worth it. Training takes a few weeks which I would like to be faster to start using asap.

Summary:

Best scheduling we've ever had.

Benefits:

Multiple request options and customizable

Drawbacks:

Excessive lag time

We use this for a large physician group of 60, staffing 3 locations. The program initially seemed to do the job fairly well, but still required a lot of manual scheduling input on the part of the scheduler. Now, the system seems to be overwhelmed (I assume the servers can't keep up with the volume), and every time you input a single day request, there is up to a 45 second wait before the request goes through. In the interim, you can't make any other requests. It easily takes 30 minutes for a provider to enter their requests for a one month schedule.

Schedule automatically populates my calendar on my iPhone. After my initial review, the company seemed to make improvements in the speed of their servers, so it does not take as long to input shift requests.

Even with a wide computer monitor, it is not possible to view all of the days of the month on one screen without scrolling from side to side. The iPhone app is usable, but requires looking through too many potential shifts just to determine who is working on any given day.

Easy to Use and can be Customize as needed also reduce HR lethargic works like traditional leave process through user interface and yeah its a Cloud base :)

Drawbacks:

Didn't find much but i think first hand training of new features with TimeTrax team must be more frequent.

It offers employee self service which is pretty user friendly. Also offers most of the requirements as setup in the system for administrator so the user don't have to contact the vendor for setting up small things.

Drawbacks:

Time it takes to load the dashboard needs improvement.

1) U/I of system is not good. Graphic designer and development team need to work on it. 2) Frankly speaking, I am not really satisfied with this software because before providing the software your company didn't realized the needs for our company and always ask for money while we ask for changes. 3) Whoever developed this software doesn't worked for real time based working or making of MIS by the system. This software is limited.

Summary:

It was just OK.

Benefits:

Friendly user interface Comprehensive work flow Dedicated support team

Drawbacks:

Charts or forms need to be reduced....

I have been using this software from quiet a long time and found it really helpful in managing day to day tasks. I get the data on a click away. Reports are simplified and readily accessible. I am very satisfied and would recommend others too.
