The work that still lives in inboxes and spreadsheets

Schedulers should not have to piece together a night's shifts from email threads, text messages, and a spreadsheet that only one person understands.

  • Spreadsheets that drift out of date
  • Repeated texts and phone calls for availability
  • Ineligible staff assigned by accident
  • Double bookings and last-minute changes
  • Manual payroll and scattered reports

When everything lives in Horizon

Events, staff, qualifications, messages, reports, and payroll are in one place that schedulers and staff can both use.

  • Qualified, available staff
  • Automatic notifications when assignments change
  • Clear assignment status
  • Accurate reports and organized records
  • Less administrative back-and-forth

A straightforward event and shift assigning workflow

1

Import or create events

Build the schedule in Horizon or bring events in from a spreadsheet.

2

Assign qualified, available staff

Use eligibility, blocks, and availability so the wrong person is harder to put on an event.

3

Publish and notify

Staff receive assignments and can accept or decline from the web or the mobile apps.

4

Manage changes, reports, and payroll

Handle cancellations, evaluations, event reports, and pay from the same operation.

What Horizon is for

Manual assigning, automatic assigning, qualifications, restrictions, and linked events.

Keep everyone informed

What schedulers say

I have used a number of scheduling websites over the years and without question this is THE BEST I have ever come across. It is easy to use, and they can make any adjustment to make your scheduling system fit your specific needs. I use it everyday and have recommended this site to every scheduler I do business with and they have made the switch. Everyone is very happy with the change.

Horizon has cut my day to day scheduling workload in half. I now rely on the system, as well as the staff I assign to do the communication (email/text) grunt work. I no longer have to "negotiate" schedule offerings / accepts or declines manually via email. - Great Product - Even better when I have to submit payroll as the readily available reports are there instantly and accurate. I very much trust this system and hardily recommend it to fellow schedulers.
