Findmyshift vs Sling

Findmyshift creates employee schedules, handles shift requests, tracks labor costs and supports communication with employees. Its online scheduler provides spreadsheet-style editing, drag-and-drop shifts, multi-cell editing and reusable templates. A time clock and timesheets record actual hours worked, and both are included at no extra cost on every account, including Free. Approved timesheets can feed reports comparing scheduled hours and costs with actual hours and costs. Managers can send messages and notifications by email, text or push notification; SMS has an additional cost. Findmyshift offers Android and iOS apps as well as browser access. The Free plan costs nothing and supports five team members and one manager, with one week of historical data and forward planning. Starter costs $27 a month and supports 20 team members. Business costs $43 a month; Enterprise costs $85 a month. A three-month trial includes full access for up to 300 employees and requires no credit card. Findmyshift was founded in 2004 and is headquartered in Amsterdam, Netherlands.

Sling is an employee scheduling, communication, and workforce management platform for organizing shifts and labor costs. It supports reusable schedule templates, employee availability, time-off requests, shift offers, swaps, open shifts, and auto-scheduling. The Free plan supports up to 30 users and includes shift scheduling, time-off requests, available shifts, news sharing, long-term scheduling, and private messaging. Premium costs $2 a month per user and adds mobile time tracking, labor cost management, overtime tracking, and group messaging. Business costs $4 a month per user and adds kiosk time tracking, reports, no-show and sick call-out features, and PTO management. Communication options include private and group messages, a Newsfeed, Announcements, and email, push, browser, and some SMS notifications. Sling lists integrations with Toast and other point-of-sale systems; the Toast connection syncs employee data, compares POS sales with labor costs, and exports timesheets to Toast Payroll. Sling runs on Android, iOS, and the web, though some actions require a desktop browser.
