## Reviews

### "Great tool to schedule your staff\!" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *27 November 2018* | Apparel & Fashion | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: This has been one of the best tools to manage timing and staff in a small business. The business runs with an aprox. of 30 people.  We have had no problem while using the system. It never crashes and it is one of the most friendly and easy to use rostering softwares.
> 
> **Cons**: To be honest it is pretty easy to use. I might find that there is not a compatible app for it, as some other rostering software have.
> 
> It has been a quiet helpful tool to manage the staff in different states. It has been easy and it is quick to make changes. It is super fast to log in and to add people to it. It personalizes all of the staff with their pics and details. I think it is pretty good as it also integrates their sallary. Great software.

> 
> **Pros**: Ease of use, and customer service so far is wonderful
>

### "RosterElf needs to go back to Santa's workshop to be fixed" — 2.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *10 March 2025* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: One positive is the staff leave and availability; the system alerts you when you try to add someone in for a day they can't make. We have gone back to working on fast, easy and reliable spreadsheets.
> 
> **Cons**: The migration between the timesheets from RosterElf and Xero is glitchy (sometimes only populating some employees; this meant you had to complete the rest manually); elf support blamed it on a Xero issue. The rota system mainly works, but it is slow to use. It has a 2-second delay by auto-saving every amendment made (very tedious if you need to change a start time for your staff quickly). Staff are always having problems signing in/out due to GPS issues.
> 
> Overall, our experience with RosterElf was below average. When we cancelled our subscriptions, RosterElf immediately logged us out of our account with 3 weeks left on the subscription and denied a partial refund or use of the reminder time.

> 
> **Pros**: How easy it was to implement and use. No problems incurred during the integration and user experience was fantastic.
> 
> **Cons**: Really can't find anything wrong with the application. Ticked all the boxes for me.
> 
> Great experience, would definitely recommend it
