Ratings and Reviews
Transitioning from Crew App.
We’ve use the crew app since 2014 to keep all of our employees and shops connected, but in the last year they started to take a serious quality nose dive. So we have swapped to your newer Breakroom App. So far so good, we understand it’s fairly new and still being worked on. We just hope that you don’t fall short where Crew did, I.e. actually listening to what your users need and want and making timely adjustments. I know the first thing off the top of my head I would love to see is a “blackout” UI and maybe customizable background picture. The one with all the different designs is a little chaotic when trying to scroll through and read messages from 30+ employees. There are other things that could be streamlined or tweaked but overall a good start. Already leaps and bounds better than Crew.
Developer Response ,
Thank you so much for the detailed review and the great feedback. We hope to do exactly what you said which is listen to our users and improve the app quickly. Stay tuned on the "blackout" UI. If you have anything else you'd like to see, please send us an email at hello@breakroomapp.com
Finally found the right solution for my business
After trying many different communications tools to help coordinate the shift workers at my restaurant, I finally found the perfect fit. Breakroom was incredibly easy to set up and use for my team. Unlike other products, I like how you can create dedicated chats and lets people see which messages are read. Breakroom exceeded my expectations with its easy to use interface, making it easy for my employees who use it even though they aren't as tech savy.
Suggestions
The Breakroom app is 80% similar to the Crew app. We are grateful to switch our team to Breakroom instead of Square. If there is an easy way to create a new chat, it would be great! We could scroll and select an employee after clicking the “+” button but if we could start a new conversation through “Team” it would make it much easier. For the scheduling function, it would be great if we could upload a “PDF” file!
Developer Response ,
Thank you for your support and your suggestions! We will pass this along to the team. As a FYI, you CAN upload PDFs. This can be done by logging in via web browser at breakroomapp.com
