Sling

Sling is a free communication and shift scheduling software. Built around four features
- shifts, tasks, messages and newsfeed,
- it allows you to organize all aspects of work on a single platform.
With Sling you can create employees’ work schedules, assign tasks, send messages to groups or individuals, and share information with your employees on the internal newsfeed. So instead of using multiple platforms, you will be using just one tool and keeping everything in one place.

Sling reduces the time it takes to create and manage schedules and helps to bring teams together, keep everyone informed and build better company culture.

Sling is available on the web and through the apps making work accessible anywhere.

Main features:

Shifts: set up shift schedules, manage time off and shift trade requests and handle unexpected changes without stress.Messages: send messages and chat with employees, share photos, videos, and links with coworkers – either in groups or individually.Tasks: create and assign tasks and get notified when they are completed. Remind employees about upcoming deadlines.Newsfeed: post and distribute information to your company’s feed for all employees to see.

This app requires a user account created through the Sling web app at getsling.com.

App delivery sound stop working since last update please fix asap. I have to physically check the app constantly so I don't miss out on important information regarding my job. I checked my settings on my phone and it says the app has a bug every other app works perfectly on my phone

Since the latest update, I don't recieve notifications anymore. I have to go into the app to see if there are any messages. Very disappointing as I have to use this for work every moment of my shift.

Mad. G. May 11, 2022     

Why does it run so slowly?? And why do I need to refresh my feed to see new messages?? I don't even get notifications for new messages anymore, I have to go into the app and refresh to see anything. It's ridiculous.

Used for a few years now, always been great but stopped receiving notifications now. Is there a bug that can be fixed? Great for communicating with staff and planning.

Mil. B. May 11, 2022     

Idk what happened, but somehow I am no longer getting notifications on this app. I checked my settings and I have notifications enabled, but I'm still missing messages and alerts

Recent update causing constant crashing in the background. I no longer receive background notifications from my job. No previously noticed issues. Samsung Galaxy A52 5G

Dak. C. May 17, 2022     

Notifications suddenly stopped working. All my settings say they should be on, reinstalling the app doesn't change anything.

Dav. May 9, 2022     

Not receiving notifications since update. I've checked settings and Uninstalled and reinstalled the app several times, please fix this bug

The app was running fine until the new update. I don't get notifications for my shifts since the update.

Kat. M. May 6, 2022     

Since the update on 5/5 I'm no longer getting push notifications. All settings are correct and I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app

Good app for work scheduling purpose. I wish there was an option to add notes when you apply for a shift

Dar. N. May 12, 2022     

Great scheduling app.. easy to use and convenient. My staff loves it as well.

Ang. M. May 15, 2022     

Worked great until the newest update. No longer get notifications.

Love the ease of scheduling shifts for college students and them being responsible for getting their shift filled if they can not work.

I like being able to see who I'm working with each day, so that I can plan my day accordingly. I really like this app.

The service sling provides is great. I really, really like it. The app... Is alright. It's fine for employees - they can see their schedule and send and receive messages without revealing everyone's personal phone numbers. But as an administrator, the app is practically worthless. I only have it to respond to messages. Scheduling is impossibly complicated in the app, much faster to do on paper. The app also doesn't allow you to send announcements, at least not that I've found. There's also no way to view an announcement again. I wish it had a timer (available for x days) The UI also seems to be difficult for new employees to understand. There are too many different tabs and menus that give the appearance of a lot of features, that don't really exist. The website, however, is great

It works, assuming I close and reset it several times a day. Otherwise it doesn't show messages, goes into infinite load screens, or won't send messages to others. It took me almost three months of fighting before I could finally get it to change my profile picture. It's a very frustrating app most of the time but when it works, it's useful.

This app is severely neglected on Android. I use it for work and it's just not reliable. From calendar syncs, to notifications, to having to constantly refresh the feed. Not to mention if your connection is spotty or you're switching onto or off of wifi, it'll spam several little sliders to let you know. It uses a lot of battery for how little I get out of it.

My favorite part of this app is the chat feature. Our work place is gossip and drama free. My staff chat on Sling about all things work related and not work related. I think it has really helped the staff feel like a work family. The scheduling feature is convenient. Employees can swap shifts without having to run it by me, but I can still see the shift trades. It makes "request off's" much more manageable and organized. We also use it to clock in and out.

I was going to compliment my newly appointed "supervisor" for this app, but then she fired me "just because she could". It was a great app, from what little time she made my schedule. Your shifts are all there. It even reminds you before your shift. I am sure you can change that setting if needed. But, very handy if you have erratic hours. It is all right there. Very cool 😎 app.

This app has been so helpful for my staff and scheduling, we have been using it on trial for about a month now and have had great feedback! The one thing I would really love to see is the history of a shift when it changes (for example being able to see WHEN a shift was given to someone else), but also to be able to make changes in "bulk" after assigning so I don't have to change start times or details for each person individually.

I use this for my volunteer work and I really enjoy this app! It has messaging to keep in touch with everyone and it's super easy to sign up for shifts! One other thing I really enjoy as a forgetful person is the fact that it gives you a message an hour before your shift starts to make sure you remember and get there on time. All in all a solid app for managing volunteers as well as being one

Sling is amazing! We use it to log and control all Spa Front Desk staff. This app makes it easy to schedule, easy to see and easy to change shifts. Our staff love its versatility, the way they can offer up a shift they need out of and trade shifts with their coworkers, as well as, as managers we have to approve the switch and are always in the loop. Can't live without it now!

Very sluggish! Highly frustrating, especially when in a hurry. Also accepting shifts needs to be streamlined. I should not have to tap the screen 3 times just to apply for each shift. Make the icon on the shifts in the Available Shifts tab selectable and do not redirect to another window, when the icon is tapped it should immediately either apply or retract the application. Was going to give 3 stars but your feedback feature is broken so now you get 2. Thank you for your consideration

Since the last 2 updates app not working properly please fix it

Rub. M. Mar 4, 2022     

It's. great, with the work that I'm doing, to be able to get some ser hours. Thanks, Sling, for making that an option. At first it was quite hard to catch those times lots. But If you know when to get on to find them... makes for a better day, making it easier to get my time in

Great! I like how everyone can communicate easily.

A good app for shift organizing and changing shifts. The reminders and simple UI make it so once I got used to it it really helped staying on time. Tagging who is on which shigt and shift trading are also convenient in app. Overall, it helps reduce management needs on the low end once set up. The app is really at it's best though when used in conjunction with other networking apps like Slack, communication between employees is key to best value on this app.

I've tried to premium version loved all the features whoever I didn't purchase simply because our organization has other software that manages some of these features inother back end departments. I recommend the free version for anyone looking to do employee scheduling. super easy to learn and use and my staff just loves the ease of communication and taking control of their own shifts. notifications assures that staff are not forgetting about having to work and, there are no excuses!
