Homebase Reviews & Ratings
Are you using Homebase?
Spotsaas Editor’s POV
Homebase works best for small teams with straightforward scheduling needs. Before shortlisting, verify that the app's weekly availability settings match your staffing model—some managers report needing to set availability daily instead, which adds friction if your business operates on fixed weekly rotations. Test the navigation during your demo, particularly the ...Read more

Easy scheduling
What do you like best? It is very easy to view, trade and cover shifts. What do you dislike? I don’t like the fact that availability is not saved weekly but has to be resent. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? My team no longer has to email to switch shifts or change scheduling.

Used Homebase to track hours and time off for my team
What do you like best? My guys could easily clock in and clock out when they got to work without having to have some complicated computer system. I also like that they could trade shifts with each other without me having to be involved. What do you dislike? Dislike that it's more or less the honor system. My guys could give each other their code and clock each other in on our office tablet and bypass the geofence I set up for their personal devices Recommendations to others ...

Was forced to switch to Homebase. Hate it.
What do you like best? The only thing I like about homebase is the message board. What do you dislike? I hate the way the it shows everyone’s schedule. I don’t like the way you have to request time off. Should just be able to select shifts, not hours. I don’t like when someone puts up a shift multiple people can accept it. Recommendations to others considering the product: Schedulefly is so much better What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have ...

Great and efficient
What do you like best? I like how every week, instead of just getting your schedule on the app, you also get texted your work schedule for the week. It was a little exciting waiting every week to see how many hours you would get scheduled in. You can also see when and if your co-workers are going to be in on a certain day or time period. So those that you are friends with, you can get excited about working the shifts with and you know who will be there during your shift. I also like how ...
