UniFocus Software

Good for analytics and evaluation.

Pros

It is a very user-friendly, up-to-date analytics tool that makes assessing and approving time, as well as researching patterns and forecasts, simple. This has helped us make more informed decisions as a team during crucial times and within high-pressure environments. The simplicity of compiling analytics for evaluation is by far the strongest feature of Unifocus. They have a well-made app thats perfect for my team members who are always on the go.

Cons

I am still not sure if theres a way to enter the vacation times of individual users. I wish that different forms of pay (vacation, personal, unpaid) could be used in a single request rather than having to enter multiples. This is just something that I think can be improved to make the overall experience more efficient and helpful to the users.

Streamlines scheduling processes.

Pros

It is a rich software with lots of room for creativity that has improved our scheduling and time management. We just had to train a few of our employees to use it, and use it correctly, and it has saved department heads and assistant managers a significant amount of time by doing much of the schedule writing for them. I truly like how simple the interface is to navigate.

Cons

It took us time to properly train the employees on how to use it. Its a vast system to try to educate all at once. I believe simplifying a few elements and outlining an easier way to train would improve the user experience.

Capable of creating diverse schedules.

Pros

Overall, I am quite pleased with our Unifocus experience when compared to alternative scheduling apps. Im glad we have scheduling software that does what we need it to accomplish without much effort. Considering the size of our workforce, its a miracle how well it performs and allows us to create and manage unbelievably diverse timetables with ease. They have a good customer support team that understands what their clients need. Id definitely recommend this software.

Cons

Unifocus could be even better if they solve two of my issues. I do understand that we are leveraging the software for a heavy workload, but we did make it clear to the implementation team. Given that, the load times are excruciatingly slow, and I dont think its 100% due to our large workforce. They also make use of the decade-old point tracking system which is just stressful to use.

This app has potential butNeeds improvement

Pros

I appreciate the ability to track my working hours as an hourly employee andNotify managers of any discrepancies. It's also convenient to request time off in advance.

Cons

Unfortunately, the app has been consistently buggy, and recent issues have made it even worse. I haven't been able to access my past timecards for over a month, affecting my ability to review my paystubs. Additionally, there'sNo feature to seek help from the app developer or company directly.

Speeds up routine tasks.

Pros

Ive been doing payroll for a team of 70 or more people for roughly 5 years. The UniFocus application is really simple to use and helps me speed up this process while keeping mistakes at a minimum. I use it on a regular basis and have never had any serious problems. I also use the UniFocus app, which is I have found to be quite convenient. It informs me of who is on shift and allows me to approve time off requests and better manage my team.

Cons

An employee should be able to apply for a time off that could be due to any reason whatsoever. However, Unifocus app is unable to help me adjust exactly what sort of time off my employee wants to use. This, in my opinion, is the only real thing that is bad about the UniFocus app. This issue does not persist on the desktop version, however. For example, I had an associate seek 8 hours of personal time, but they only had 0 hours left. On a PC, I can easily change that to a vacation day or floating holiday, but I cant do so with the app.
