We are so happy to have found Zira! The simplicity and flexibility of Zira has saved our organization a lot of time with scheduling. The way the tools integrate with the Zira time clock is really elegant. As soon as we publish a new opening, Zira automatically knows who can cover it and notifies them instantly. This includes substitutes for teachers, custodians, campus monitors, and many other classified and certificated positions.
The Zira Portal (Time Clock) works on any device which is super convenient for our different campuses and work sites.
The Zira team is super responsive, and any issue I’ve had has been clarified or resolved in minutes.
Don’t wait! Zira has been key to our ability to adapt to COVID protocols.
Zira solves problems by saving time with scheduling. The automation platform allows us to be confident that policies are consistent, fair and never forgotten.
Zira meets our workforce management needs perfectly. The product is just beautifully designed! It helps us create / manage employee schedules, shift swap requests, time tracking, time off approvals, and more. Before, we needed several tools to accomplish what we can do entirely with Zira. We can export our timesheets into the exact format required by our payroll provider, so that our hours are accurate and we can process payroll faster. The price point is very reasonable, given what you get.
We're on Year 1 of using Zira and there isn't much that I can think of here. We are working with their team on more custom reporting needs.
We needed a better way to manage time cards and run payroll, than our old time clock (which was expensive and required manual corrections). Zira’s time tracking (biometric and mobile) and scheduling solution meets our exact needs. We’re able to more accurately understand when our employees were working and expedite payroll processing.
Our non-profit tends to do things a bit different than your average team. We have lots of policies and rules that need to be monitored at all times. I was pretty much resolved to do it all myself, or put the burden on our managers.
When searching for a scheduling tool, and time tracking app- we came across Zira and saw what the Automated Policies could do. We spent up to 10 hours creating our schedule for the month- that has been reduced drastically. We also spent close to 5 hours per week trying to enforce and track our team rules, that is nearly all handled in Zira now.
So I really do love the flexibility of the platform - to help our team keep operating in the way we want to rather than having to give up our unique ways.
With the Zira portal running time & attendance/ time clock for us that really makes things easy for us, and our staff required no training to figure it out.
No issue thus far. I was able to figure out the interface fairly easily.
Enforcing Company Policies and rules
Saving tons of time
Automated Schedules based on our custom rules
The ability to release shifts so that my staff can get automatically notified is great. Then being able to auto-approve or see all the requests sorted by tenure and hours allocated was really helpful for us.
I also really enjoyed some of the extra features that I didn't even think about when initially searching. The communication platform, combined with the automated policies was really cool and saved me maybe 4 hours a week. Now instead of constantly monitoring my staff, I automatically get notified anytime something goes wrong or needs my attention.
I also set it up to notify me when things correct themselves so its really amazing now that it's full set up.
Because the platform can do so much it might take a little longer to set up. But you can always set up just the basics and then build more and more policies into Zira.
Shift Distribution
Schedule Communication
Time Tracking & Attendance
Reporting and Job Code Tracking
We have a traditional culture and our employees aren’t tech savvy, so it was important that the scheduling & time tracking software was easy to use. Zira’s customer service stood out throughout the entire process. The Zira team was very helpful and responsive during our evaluation: they provided personalized demos to help us understand the technology and how it would work for our organization. The implementation process was also top notch: they helped us set up and customize our accounts, so that using Zira was a turn-key operation. We have taken advantage of their training sessions and have been using Zira smoothly ever since.
I would love to be able to edit shifts more quickly on the calendar (via drag and drop) - I know the zira team is actively working on this!
We needed to schedule shifts more efficiently. As our business grew and we added more departments, scheduling on paper and spreadsheets wasn’t feasible. We needed a technology that helped us communicate, coordinate, and team management. Zira has helped us be more effective in all of these areas.
We use Zira to manage schedule and track time for our hourly employees. It helps us automate the scheduling process by matching our workers’ preferences, and availability to appropriate shift. I love that I can create & publish schedules several weeks in advance, keep track of my employees hours, and automate notifications. It's so convenient, fast to set, and easy to navigate through. Our employees simply clock-in through the mobile app, where they can also check-off tasks and add notes about the shift. I really appreciate the flexibility of Zira’s solution.
Nothing comes to mind. Perhaps, it would be awesome to be able to pay my workforce through Zira.
Scheduling only takes minutes, without having to ask employees individually and juggle various shift requirements. The timesheet reporting functionality has saved me hours every week. Earlier, I had to manually calculate hours worked, but now I can simply review the report and export into our payroll system.
This is the perfect time & attendance solution for our remote workforce. We love that Zira is accessible and mobile friendly.. Our employees in the field use the mobile app to clock-in/out, so we can keep track of hours and who is working. They report updates through the chat, which has been more scalable than communicating by text. And their schedules are always synced and up-to-date, which requires less check-ins with HQ and makes planning much easier... our employees always know where to go and have all the shift details.
The manager dashboard gives us real-time visibility into our coverage and allows us to dispatch replacements efficiently. As a non-profit, we're cost conscious -- and we appreciate that Zira centralizes multiple functions (scheduling, time tracking, chat) in one tool. The mobile app is free to download for employees and works on their existing android / iphones, so we didn't need to purchase additional hardware.
I'd like to be able to manually rearrange groups on the schedule page (vs. alphabetical sorting)
With Zira we can operate faster, be more flexible, and use resources more efficiently. Before we weren’t able to make day-of scheduling changes because were using spreadsheets -- these required advanced notice and lots of manual reconciliation. We save time by using Zira to assign shifts, notify employees of changes, and keep the team updated.
We were searching for a scheduling solution and we stumbled upon Zira. Most of the tools we saw were clunky, old school, or too cluttered. We wanted something simple and easy to use. Zira caught our eye because it’s beautifully designed and the UX was clean. We reached out for a demo and were pleasantly surprised that it was led by Zira’s co-founder. Zira perfectly meets our needs for efficient scheduling and reporting. It was nice to have multiple options for building schedules: they can automate scheduling (which made them standout) but there’s also the option to build schedules on your own. The implementation process was smooth -- the Zira team makes it easy to import your schedule and the team has been very responsive.
Creating & editing shifts is already easy, but it would be nice if we could drag & drop shifts around the calendar as well.
Before, we were having managers build schedules. They spent hours on scheduling, when their time could be better spent with the team and on high value activities. Zira has helped us save time and allows us to reallocate managers to other things. We see benefits in terms of better schedule quality and employee satisfaction.
